Well, sounds great for any non mobile storage then. Don’t think anybody cares whether their 10kWh solar battery is twice the size and weight if it’s half the price.

Thank you :)

What other benefits do they have? Do they have less wear or are cheaper per Wh to produce?

Or at least, about to be when production ramps up further?

Are you really bringing up resource limitation when your point is energy sources that depend on finite fuel?

Besides, the current form of renewables is the best option we have right now, so we should put all efforts into that. Once we find something better, absolutely go for that.

Correct, but don’t forget that renewables is an umbrella term.

If you use solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal and bioenenergy, you’re diversified and it’s all renewable. Add in storage and there’s not much of an issue anymore.

The connector was gold plated. Not a golden wire.

I was buying a toslink cable recently and I shit you not, there was a gold plated optical cable…

Imagine using dailymail as a reason for why news are factual.

The post is about true wireless earbuds The comment is about how lemmy makes it about jacks and wired earphones for no reason The counter point is that wired earphones last decades I said that the market for them is already satisfied, while those are the first fair true wireless ones, which is great

Now how is it irrelevant? I seriously don’t understand what the problem is, and I also don’t know what kind of strawman I apparently made

The whole thread is about earbuds?! Where do jacks on phones come in all of a sudden?

On true wireless earbuds? How?

So you basically said there’s no need for fair wired headphones because cheap 20€ chinese wired ones perfectly serve that market?

Even better that fairphone builds true wireless earbuds with all those fair features, because there is no alternative there already.

Even autotldr uses cliffhangers now, damn.

A converter would be great tho. Sure, would cost a bit of CPU after upload but then it’s just storing and distributing webp.

Are most of your services just a single pod? Or do you actually have them scaled? How do you then handle non-cloud-native software?

When I got my wisdom teeth pulled I was put in general anesthesia. Funnily enough, like everyone probably, I tried staying awake. Doc told me to count down from 10, I was very determined to get it done, just closed my eyes for a bit but I managed to pull it off. Only thing is, that I was out between 6 and 5, and counted half the numbers in the wake up room. It’s literally like a time warp. Super interesting imo.

They don’t need to be. When you’re posting a comment, that’s a database query. Not from you directly, but you’re submitting a comment, which tells the frontend to tell the backend to tell the database to save that comment.

Now do that a thousand times and you created a thousand database queries. Now do something more elaborate, like filtering search results or something, and you put a bit more load on the database.

And apparently there seem to be some queries that a user can create that cause issues if submitted by the thousands.

If any right-wing nutjob is reading this: You should count on him actually paying for you. Go wild! But make sure to use your public profile so people don’t think you’re a bot!

Absolutely. But I specifically didn’t mention that because it doesn’t apply to everyone. Lots of people living in apartments don’t have an outlet on their parking spot. But if you have, EVs are arguably more convenient than combustion cars already.

I think the bigger societal problem is that people need to start thinking differently of how charging works. It won’t and doesn’t need to work like refueling.

What I mean is, nobody would refuel every day at the beginning of their 10km commute. What they’ll do is commute for 2 weeks, and when the car is empty they’ll refuel and then continue on their way.

With EVs, this can be different. Once chargers (and not even fast chargers) are placed on every major location, you don’t need to go 0-100% in 99% of the cases. Getting groceries? Charge at the store for 30mins Going to the gym? Charge there for an hour or two Going out for dinner? Charge for 3h

The car doesn’t need to go empty all the way. Obviously you can’t do that with the current infrastructure, but with enough effort, that’s easily achievable.
