based are a fad, scam and duds. Absolute cul-de-sac stopping us from implementing real solutions to get away from hydrocarbon-based ICEs.

We could absolutely switch/transition to ICEs from diesel ICE tech (higher press manifolds than ), and do that for a long while, before we get to some Clarkes-3rd-Law solution (lol).

AP: Double-swiping the rewards card led to free gas for months — and a felony theft charge

"Fuel pumps at the station received a software update in November 2022 that managed, among other things, rewards cards. But the company was unaware of a glitch that allowed anyone swiping a rewards card twice to put a gas pump into demonstration mode. In demo mode, the user could pump gas at no cost."

Lead from gasoline blunted the IQ of about half the U.S. population, study says

'Leaded gas was banned in 1996, but exposure to the poison cost people born before then several IQ points on average, researchers estimated'

And not just in the US, I'll bet.

The Problems with Russia's Gasoline Crisis Run Deeper Than It Seems

Russia has instituted a 6-month ban on exports.

Why?

Ukraine's attacks on energy infrastructure, Western sanctions or the Russian home front, with Russians getting frustrated with the war?

Trump tells Iowa there’s $8 a gallon gas. Abbott claims gas prices are higher. But they’re the lowest they’ve been in years. They’re lying because it’s all they have.

"Last month, the Balzani arrived in the New Harbor carrying more than 500,000 barrels of fuel made in part from Russian crude oil. It turns out that U.S. imports are helping fuel Russia's war machine."

Interesting - and it also merits the inclusion of a hashtag, because it's yet more evidence that fossil fuels have much to answer for.
