I was at a gas station, and poured diesel fuel from the pump into the convenience store's ice cream machine, and ate the result. The diesel gave the ice cream a very tangy taste.

Chicago, May 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global Diesel Engines Market is projected to reach USD 78.8 billion in 2028 from USD 63.9 billion in 2023 at a CAGR of 4.3% according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets™.

Market Prices are Still Higher, But How long?

Market Prices are Still Higher, But How long?

Market Prices are still higher, but for how long? Commodity markets are rarely dull and sometimes are outright wild. One-quarter of the way into 2022, and we’ve seen a lot of upward pressure in several commodities. The curious question is how long is this going to last given multiple outside factors that could bring the higher push to a halt. Mike Zuzolo is the founder and president of Global…

"These frozen smoke belchers are Minnesota school buses that were set for a retrofit with diesel engines in 2012. New evidence, however, from a small town in Colorado suggests that another retrofit is needed—to electric motors and batteries.

That’s because the West Grand School District is finding that in the frigid winter temps of -30°F, their electric buses outperformed their diesel-powered ones, both in running costs and reliability.

EV skeptics and critics are quick to mention the reduced range of a battery pack when exposed to such brutal temperatures, but no Minnesotan or Coloradoan needs reminding about those especially cold mornings when the car won’t start.

Kremmling Colorado is one of the coldest towns in the country, and the school district that encompasses this hamlet of 1,500 people was able to begin using an electric bus in their fleet starting in 2020 thanks to grants from the EPA, along with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE).

“What we are seeing is that these buses are doing great in cold weather they still maintain a battery charge even when it’s cold,” said Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) representative, Casey Becker.

“It averages 26 cents per mile and the diesel buses, just for fuel not including oil changes, filters, lubes, is 58 cents per mile,” said West Grand County School District Director of Transportation, Bethany Aurin.

Becker told Fox 9 News [Note: Video at link!] that there will be a total of 49 electric school buses heading to nine Colorado School Districts, including four in Summit County and three in Steamboat Springs."

The people again march against the burning of diesel fuel in the Shazand Thermal Power Plant built for burning gas, resulting in pollution of their homes in Arak, central Iran.

Also, it's right next to a National Park, and to agriculture, so that's... not great either.

Whoever said there’s no such thing as a stupid question was so wrong bc if my life has taught me anything it’s that there are a LOT of stupid ass questions and most of them are asked by stupid ass people. To be very clear this is not a measure of intelligence it is a measure of how able a person is to shut up and fucking listen when someone is answering your stupid question.

haha now to have your car have yellow plates aka be a vintage car it has to be 30 yo so fuck my life i guess

The global Diesel Engines Market is projected to reach USD 78.8 billion in 2028 from USD 63.9 billion in 2023 at a CAGR of 4.3% according to...

Let’s put some basic facts on the table. The fire department identified the car which started the blaze. There’s video of it. It was a diesel Range Rover, one of the Land Rover group of cars. While there is a diesel battery-electric hybrid option for some of the Range Rover groups, there’s zero evidence that it was a hybrid.

Is there any evidence about Land Rovers and fires? Why yes there is. The firm recalled 112,000 of them a few months ago because they had a bad problem with catching fire(..)

P.S. In fact, fossil fuel cars catch fire very often, but the "popular" mass-fooling media continues to misinform people about electric car batteries...A fossil car is much more likely to catch fire much faster and more often than any electric car...Smart and successful people DON'T DRIVE DIESELS ANYMORE...

sometimes the only thing that gets you off the couch & out of the freeze-mode panic attack is telling yourself that you’re over here terrified that your book isn’t going to be like the fucking Mona Lisa you’re trying to shoot for, and meanwhile there are some capitalist fucks out there making loads more money than you with books in your historical era, that have words like “panties” and “pussies” and “hey you guys” in them, and exactly 0.000000001% historical research put into them, and the righteous anger over the bullshittery and insult to human intelligence that is “marketable/accessible literature” is what gets you back up
