It does - it is easy to see when answering a new card, where the default times for the different options are <1m, <6m, <10m, 25d. On the other hand, people do have a circadian rhythm and schedule, and learning is dependent on sleep

Diesel, iron or aluminum, from your parent post, are difficult to explode… (personally, no clue about magnesium); and the point of the latter two is that you can “store” energy by upstreaming its consumption when power is available, you don

I stand corrected, what is illegal is to operate them continuously, not to just have them as I simplified above. "If, for example, you use a continuous recording of the road in which other vehicles' license plates are visible to d

As an example, in Spain it is illegal to have dashcams, and its content cannot be used in a trial - but you can share the content with insurances and policeman, and recording is generally not prosecuted. It is nonetheless an opening if an o

Yeah sorry if you think that! I was just (admittedly, in passing, and through a one-liner), pointing to the fact that I don't think that your argument is really solid. There are already other comments expanding on that so I won't
