Nah, it's definitely him. It looks to be an error in the caption. Or his lawyer looks uncannily like his client.

It can work if it's combined with batteries. And heat pumps are a no brainer, even in cold regions.

 

I doubt she gained anything politically from delaying it in the first place. And if the Trump administration can genuinely stop this, they would have been better off implementing it as planned.

This is pretty much it. The disengaged public needs simple, three-word slogans and they need to stick on message, relentlessly (and it needs to connect emotionally as you said).

I'll add pinchflat as an alternative with the same aim.

 

Hopefully this means these 13+ year old GPUs will still work with Wayland compositors that will eventually switch to Vulkan, beyond working with gaming and the like.

Internalised misogyny and all of that.

 

This is in addition to the HECS indexation etc changes that have been proposed.
