    They have been doing for at least a decade by now (e.g Amazon). So why imply it suddenly isn’t acceptable to show ads (in any form)?

    None, except for the fact that the 30% fee will be reduced (not eliminated), has been achieved by the EU ruling. - Alternative browser engines are useless if the rest of the world …

    Doubt it. The next chapter for EVs will be truly affordable vehicles, which naturally tend to be smaller. And with a more compact size (and most likely less batteries) will come lo…

    Because heavy electric cars still pollute more than light electric cars through tire and brake particles. Taxing by size would be neat, but I understand that that would make the ca…

    > A 2 ton Model Y produces much less pollution than an ICE compact car. Because a 1.5t Zoe pollutes even less :P We can argue about the cut-off line, but it'll be arbitrary - the o…

    This is not about ICE vs EV, this is about big vs small. Opulent vs necessary. Like the mayor is quoted saying in the article: It's about "very expensive cars, driven by people who…

    Which means the cute french car has more than 500kg of headroom until it would have to pay the increased parking tariff... > and more than 2 tonnes for electric vehicles.

    Maybe. Many countries in the EU already place heavy taxes on engine displacement, so a curb weight tax or vehicle size tax wouldn't be something entirely new.

    Most of the danger (for me) comes from evil-mode. Adding prompts wouldn't make sense there ;P

    My thoughts exactly. The F355 sounds like an angry, big 4 cylinder. Very much like a race car (but in street form). Love it.

    I've tried to switch to Paredit (from Evil) but had trouble. Does anyone have a solid resource for learning?
