While other US states (and the rest of the world) inch towards goals of banning gasoline-powered cars, Wyoming is going in the opposite direction. The state's legislature is considering a resolution that calls for a phase-out of new electric vehicle sales by 2035. Introduced on Friday, Senate Joint Resolution 4 has support from members of the state's House of Representatives and Senate. The resolution says the state would need to build 'massive amounts of new power generation' to 'sustain the misadventure of electric vehicles.' Its goal is to phase out the sales of EVs entirely by 2035. Yes, EVs.In the proposal, a group of lawmakers led by Senator Jim Anderson says Wyoming's 'proud and valued' oil and gas industry has created 'countless' jobs and contributed revenue to the state. They add that a lack of charging infrastructure in Wyoming would make the widespread use of EVs 'impracticable.' The legislation may partially be a political stunt, but Wyoming produced 85.43 million barrels of oil in 2021 ' it's a crucial part of the state's economy. But, Wyoming's Carbon County also has one of the largest wind farms in the US.' Mat SmithThe Morning After isn't just a newsletter ' it's also a daily podcast.

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman teased last fall that these systems would share the same design as the M1 variants released in late 2021. They would center around new M2 Pro and M2 Max chips that would feature up to 12 CPU cores and 38 GPU cores in the Max. Don't expect a touchscreen or other major revisions. At least, not yet.

European researchers have successfully tested a system that uses terawatt-level laser pulses to steer lightning toward a 26-foot rod. It's not limited by its height and can cover much wider areas ' in this case, 590 feet ' while penetrating clouds and fog. The laser ionizes nitrogen and oxygen molecules, releasing electrons and creating a plasma that conducts electricity. As the laser fires at a very quick 1,000 pulses per second, it's more likely to intercept lightning as it forms.Continue reading.
