LeveragingInnovationInn..... Electric Vehicles! #AltoMotive is the old industry in transition to the new! Broadly, employment will change too as EVs get "electric drivers" and AI takes the wheel ("self-driving" they're calling it at the moment), so charge first.....
๐ Today we have published a new report on how location data can help build an electric vehicle (EV) chargepoint network that works for everyone, everywhere. We have also announced a project to widen access to EV demand modelling. Read the report: ๐ https://t.co/ZkT9DWEtXN

On this day As the sun creeps over the surrounding hills, an eastbound empty freight train pulls away from a frosty Hadfield station on the climb to the summit at Woodhead. An unrecorded Class 76 electric glides past the frozen photographer. 27th December 1969 ยฉ Robin Lush

Britain built the world's first maglev train in 1984 in Birmingham. It now sits rotting in a museum. Meanwhile dozens of miles have been laid across China, Japan and Korea. Britain has zero maglev trains in 2025. What a fitting analogy

Manchester United Halt A station I really wish was still open! It really made getting to games a lot easier! Here's hoping the planned redevelopment of the Old Trafford area includes a new station as proposed!

Letโs be clear. 'Upload Moderation' is a mass surveillance program. We urge EU governments to reject mass scanning of their citizens' communications by voting against this proposal tomorrow.
๐ฃOfficial statement: the new EU chat controls proposal for mass scanning is the same old surveillance with new branding. Whether you call it a backdoor, a front door, or โupload moderationโ it undermines encryption & creates significant vulnerabilities https://t.co/g0xNNKqquA
