I think the article was saying that these batteries are buildable with easy-to-find materials for anyone, USA included. I don't think there's anything in them that can only be found in the United States.

Me too! That's the only reason I know laptop-sized portable ultrasound machines exist. I had an internship there one summer where I wrote automation software for the M-Turbo.

Laptop-sized ultrasound machines have been a thing for at least a decade at this point. It feels insincere to frame ultrasound machines as these big things lugged around on carts still. Hospitals still like those, but there's plenty of

I heard that some games added cheat codes so that they could sell those guide books with all sorts of cheat codes in them. I remember seeing them at my scholastic book fair in elementary school.

You stole my name! I'm kidding... for a while I wanted to make a game named "blyss". I own the blyss.io domain name. I'll sell it to you if you want!
