This demo seems to be dated 1999. I recall the context where and when (school) I saw it first and I moved to a different school in autumn 1998. It seems there was an even earlier disk that I am confusing it with: https://marc.inf

Considering the ISS orbits in ~90 minutes, the 15 minute TTL is quite a long time.

Not only from 0W, but from negative capacity (max charging power) to positive capacity (max discharging power).

Have mailed live queen bees in Europe as well. Funniest was when receiving some (I think it was from Denmark to Estonia before we joined the EU) and one delivery got stuck in customs due to unpaid alcohol tax — someone had misread “Live Bee

> If you get sets designed in China and made at the same factories that make Lego bricks, they're like 1/3 the cost. Lego does not outsource brick making. They tried it out back in 2005 with Flextronics in Hungary and got a p

From PCB perspective, LPDDR5(X) interface is quite different from regular DDR5. Same with DDR4 and LPDDR4. Source: have designed few boards with different memory interfaces.

Population control. Mostly hunting and demolishing dams. Beavers went extinct where I live in 1841. Reintroduction started in 1957. By now there is a very healthy population that stabilised around year 2000.

Almost 100% of the electricity you use indoors will be converted to heat (with few exceptions like charging batteries) that needs to be removed from the room to be able to live there. 150kW is a lot of power.

Interesting. That is like 52 sqm per unit, which is 2.9 kW/sqm — three times higher power density than the solar irradiance on earth surface. If this is used at full power, how are the rooms cooled? (most energy gets converted to heat

Sure there are reasonable limits. Where, is another matter. For example, I can not imagine a reasonable use-case for 1MW power-line per single apartment.

Not just high end and insurance. In EU 100% of new cars have GPS installed. This is used for intelligent speed assist and eCall that are now mandatory.

2024 average electricity price in Estonia was 0.08727 €/kWh. There was no trading with Russia during this time. This is open data. I have no idea where you get the 0.26USD figure. Source: https://data.nordpoolgroup.com/

Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia (in that order) will disconnect from grids in Königsberg (Kaliningrad), Belarus and Russia (in this order). After that the area will be working as isolated grid for 33h, after which the grids will be connected

It would be interesting to see chemical analysis of those particles. Most common in the environment seem to be tyre particles (by a large margin), polyesters (textiles), polystyrene and polyethylene (both from packaging and single use utens
