So Google is still reading a large part of your mail.
I did the same thing except that I changed my email for the services I receive most mails from. After a few months, very little communication still flowed through my Gmail address.
Damage to the road scales with axle load using a fourth power. Yes a fourth power. So an average truck does roughly 3000x more damage to road surfaces than an average EV.
Yet, weather influences account for the majority of road wear, so the weight of cars really does not matter at all.
I’m aware that vehicle weight is the mechanism to tax cars in many countries, but within groups this makes little sense if it is to compensate for road wear. Whether its fair to exempt EVs from road taxes is a different story, and depends on other externalities and the type of travel behaviour a government wants to promote.
And what’s your electricity cost per kWh.
Payback time of a Pi 5 vs an old laptop could be well under 2 years depending on where you live
Agreed. Although confidence and trust sometimes misalign with actual actions and results.
Sovereign identity and Solid are the way. But governments will have to play a role in large scale implementation.
For some reason people seem to trust commercial organizations with misaligned incentives over governmental bodies.

I thought your comment was about US automakers and public charging infrastructure, until the second to last word.
I believe the way EU enforces those regulations is through a supply chain sales ban. Banned products are just not sold here.
Fines are for software products and behaviours which.
What we need is regulation. These companies will not show ethical behaviour on their own.
See e.g. right to repair, USB-C.
It can still be a game changer. In making people see that pickup trucks are ridiculous vehicles. Especially in countries that aren’t USA and thus do not have tax/insurance benefits for pickups.
Good move.
But… The open internet? Unfortunately those days are long gone. Every other website requires a Google/Microsoft Single Sign-On. And the majority of the web is hosted with a few hyperscalers, so federation is broken as well.
Extra nerd nit: If you want to abbreviate the postscript announcement, please use “p.s” because PostScript is a different thing!
p.s. thanks for pointing out the difference between Java and JavaScript
The weight of an average truck is roughly 80.000lbs more. Now add a power of 4 to that.
