Do I understand correctly that this is capable of charging over USB-C, and includes a USB-C power supply, but the default charging cable is USB-C -> DC barrel jack? So you can charge over USB-C, but only if you buy a C-to-C cable and t

Demand shaping doesn't really solve the energy availability problem; it's "giving up, with computers."

No, it is technically impossible to reach a 128-bit address from a 32-bit stack, except in special cases.

I like how Moltex asked "wait, why are we pumping all this fuel around in the first place?" https://youtu.be/7qJpVClxzVM?t=536

2 would be the wrong answer here, because K-complexity includes the definition of sha256 itself.

You could replace the THX sound with "never gonna give you up".

"DAE Quality is a new project" was written in October 2002: https://web.archive.org/web/20021016095551/http://www.exacta... The newest files in daequality.zip (v1.43) are from December 2003.

If you turn all the sounds on, the madness-inducing animation makes more sense.

Lots and lots of snorkel kits.

That only helps if your desalinator/electrolyzer/etc. has a low enough capital cost to let it sit idle most of the time.

Which came first, the IRS facility or the zip code?

For lightweight packages, I think first class is a better value, though it's more difficult to print postage at home.

Even if that's true, new cars tend to become old cars.

I searched for "meter ring load limiter", and found this product: http://www.brooksutility.com/products/75 So the utility installs a 10-30 amp circuit breaker outside the customer's house. Should be enou

Making solar noon match the numerical rollover from 12->1 doesn't seem like the worst idea in the world, though it would probably make more sense to have 11am -> 12am -> 1pm (noon).

If this happens, we're probably going to need more "standard" battery sizes. I've noticed Chinese manufacturers using the Nokia BL-5C as a de facto standard for portable electronics (bluetooth speakers, radios, game cons

Yeah, portable fusion would make large-scale power grids obsolete and revolutionize shipping. Things get more interesting when you scale it down to fit a passenger aircraft. I'll believe it when they can power a toaster or something.

"Natural light" is one of the motivating reasons for open-plan offices, so practical artificial windows could help reverse that trend.

Assuming that people commit to buying 24/7 carbon-free energy at any price, on-demand generation like geothermal will be quite valuable during the times when wind and solar are underperforming. So geothermal will mainly compete with nu

> China is even building cables to Chile (!) Where did you read this? China is 18000 km from Chile, so this seems really unlikely.

My point is that this has nothing to do with Verizon. I bought the Pixel 2 from Google and only used it on the Google Fi network. It's a bootloader lock, not a carrier lock.

Verizon is not the only exception. I purchased a Pixel 2 directly from Google, which I replaced under warranty due to a defective microphone. Years later, I tried to install LineageOS and hit the "Flashing Unlock is not allowed&quot

There are cases where electricity prices go negative, and nuclear plants must pay to put power on the grid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_pricing#Electricity

Would those locations actually work? A tire is a physically violent place, and a steering tube looks a lot like a faraday cage.

If renewables provide 100% of power on good-weather days, doesn't this mean they've picked the low-hanging fruit, and additional renewables no longer have a stable source of income? What incentive exists to decarbonize the remai

Fossil fuels are already wiping out a significant amount of livable land, through normal operation. We need to invest in carbon-free energy sources that won't cause blackouts at the whim of the weather. Reaching 100% decarbonization vi

Moltex's approach to molten salt reactors looks interesting: https://youtu.be/7qJpVClxzVM?t=536 Instead of pumping radioactive molten salt between a reactor and heat exchanger, they plan to leave it sitting in stainles
