    1. US Subsidizes Fossil Fuels To The Tune Of $4.6, $27.4, Or $649 Billion Annually, Depending On Source
      from CleanTechnica
      In 2022, new wind energy will get zero financial assistance of any kind and new solar will get very little, while fossil fuels will continue to get $4.6 billion annually in the best possible accounting, $27.4 billion in a reasonable accounting and $649 billion in a full accounting including negative externalities.

    1. A Commodore 64 Clone With a Working Retro Keyboard Will Finally Arrive This Year
      from Gizmodo
      The most disappointing thing about the miniature Commodore 64 released last year was that its tiny keyboard didn’t actually work—it was just for show. Those cryptically labeled dirt-brown keys were one of the most iconic features of the C64 back in the ‘80s. But come December, the C64 Mini will be joined by another Commodore 64 replica, this time with a full sized and fully functional keyboard.

      London is truly one of the world’s greatest cities.  It is a city rich in both history and culture.  I am always amazed when I think about how it dominated the globe both politically and economically from the end of the 16th Century up until World War I.  In some ways, it still does even …

    1. Renault Zoe 50 — Finally Ready To Deliver On Its Promise
      from CleanTechnica
      Two years ago I thought the long wait for the Renault-Nissan Alliance was over. There was a new Zoe40 launched just before the Chevy Bolt came to market, and a new Leaf coming that summer. Accompanied by a few other releases, I thought it was time to announce the Renault-Nissan Alliance was coming out of stealth mode. That was the meme of those days — EV makers coming out of stealth mode.
