More bad news for EVs
The news just kept getting worse for the electric vehicle industry. Here’s why customers aren’t buying.
Punxsutawney Phil’s days may be numbered. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) wants to replace him with an AI animatronic groundhog, saying it would be more accurate and humane. So, how accurate is Phil overall — A.) 12%, B.) 39%, C.) 51% or D.) 78%?
💋 Kiss my asteroid: A stadium-sized asteroid is cruising by Earth today, missing us by, well, 1,770,000 miles. NASA says it’s “potentially hazardous” but will likely whizz on by. It’s one of 2,350 space rocks keeping NASA on its toes.
The dark days of winter …
… are a real drag. It’s rainy here this weekend, so I may curl up under a blanket. Who am I kidding? I can’t sit still.
- Furry, warm and lots of good color options, plus it’s 48% off!

24% - Reduced risk of death for hearing aid users

“This is the year that I want to fall in love — 100%.” That’s what actress Sharon Stone said, even after her bad luck with online dating. Lowlights include meeting a felon and a guy with 20,000 heroin injections. If I saw Sharon Stone on Tinder, I’d def think it was fake.
🎨 Feel like Bob Ross: Thanks to the Imagen 2 engine, Google’s Bard chatbot now does AI art. It’s free to use, and Google is adding watermarks to avoid AI image drama (ahem, Taylor Swift pics).
Nothing to see here: The Consumer Product Safety Commission is about to tag Amazon as a “distributor,” making it accountable for all those third-party products. Amazon has played the “just-a-middleman” card all these years. The new label could mean lawsuits and recall headaches for Bezos and Co.
I was glad to see this: eBay is paying a $59 million settlement after the U.S. Department of Justice proved pill press machines were being sold on the site. Yep, those devices can make fake, maybe fentanyl-laced, pills. How eBay could let this crap be sold in the first place is beyond me. Shame on them.
