If it happens, it happens. There’s not much I can do about it. Instead of worrying about it, I can just get some popcorn ready. 🍿The last season finale was epic.

Unfortunately, human rights violations aren’t rare in that area. In fact, that’s been the standard practice in KSA and UAE for decades.

Maybe one day plastic processing plants could use larvae to eat the waste. We’re already using microbes in this way, so why not extend the same idea to larger creatures.

Also, there’s the actual Chad, which is bigger than Texas.

”Liberals drink lattes, conservatives drink black coffee. Right-wingers eat meat and leftists prefer vegetables.”

So… that means I must be some a little bit of both. A liberal right wing conservative leftist or something. My political compass is spinning like a wheel of fortune. Maybe I should say that I identify as politically fluid.

Lajittelun voi vaihtaa mieleisekseen. Hot, scaled ja active tuntuu toimivan vähän eri tilaneissa.

LOL, “batteries not included” has a whole new meaning now.

Very interesting. I wonder how those manufacturers are planning to make these cars cheaper? Do they just have a smaller battery, or do they go with LFP instead of NMC or NCA?

What happened in Iceland? I really thought they would have inherited this kind of stuff from Norway.

When in doubt, always guess it’s a Swedish loanword. You’ll be right surprisingly often.

I don’t have numbers that would directly address that. However, there are lots of statistics on the number of mobile users vs desktop users when it comes to the traffic in general. This trend has been clearly visible for about 15 years now.

Here’s something I found on a short notice. link

LOL. Those 3 weeks must have been really exciting at Llama Group. I can only imagine how the conversion went when the engineers tried to explain what FOSS means and the CEO understood none of it.

Not that many people use real computers any more. At work, you may need to use a computer, but you probably can’t change the browser. At home, you have the PCMR folks who use a computer and probably also care about browsers. Everyone else just uses a tablet or a phone for browsing the web.

Speaking of the web, most people interact with specific websites through an app and an API, so they don’t even launch the mobile browser until they have to visit a site that doesn’t have an app. The world has changed and browsers aren’t as relevant as they used to be.

If you’re a software developer or an enthusiast, you’ll notice it immediately. You’ve been reading and hearing about the new release of the BestThingEver 3.14, and you’re totally hyped up about it. You rush to install BTE to experience how awesome it is only to find out that the Debian repos still have a BTE 2.0.5 and none of the cool new features everyone has been talking about for the last 6 months.

Oh, that didn’t sound familiar? If you can’t tell the difference between two versions of a particular application, Debian will be perfectly fine for you.

I would expect that the union lawyer won’t mind that evidence is served on a silver platter like this.

There are batteries designed to handle cold climates. If you buy a car from a warmer climate and intend to use it in a cold climate, you really should check which kind of battery it came with. It’s probably a summer battery.

If we can’t find the cosmic frame of reference, then how do we know it even exists? Sure, you can assume it exists, and call that a hypothesis. If only someone had a way to test that hypothesis.

TL:DR The batteries are based on Iron oxide chemistry. Form Energy is building a factory that is supposed to make the batteries for many grid energy storage facilities, such as the one mentioned in the headline.

Anyway, this sort of development sounds great. This is exactly the kind of thing we need if we are to switch to renewable energy. Li-ion batteries should be reserved for mobile applications, such as cars, laptops, phones and earbuds. There are lots of other battery chemistries available, that have a lower energy density, but they have other advantages to compensate. Those chemistries are much better suited for industrial scale applications like this.

Good point. Sounds like it would be a good idea to replace the RNG chip with a weather station. This way, sunshine, wind, rain, temperature and other conditions control the frequency of the motor. Anyone who can predict that deserves a Nobel Price.
