BYD does batteries at scale now for about $45/kWh. The cheapest US made ones are $120/kWh. The yield and the lack of automation is the holdup. Source: recent article on Works In Progress.

The "American" chips sanctions is outsourced. It is a single Dutch company (ASML) in EU which machines are installed in Taiwan. The EU which Humpty-Trumpy is working very hard to completely alienate...

Ask for medium roast, not light. You might like dark roasts, especially if you drink with milk or fakemilk. There are two kind of "sourness" in coffee, one is of acidity, which is a (for some highly desirable) feature of the beans

EV convert here. I owned two Teslas so far. Won't buy a third one until Musk is the CEO. My sentiment is widely shared on /r/tesla and other Tesla forums. South Korea will get my car payment.

100 square kilometers of panels is the total energy consumption of the world now, two thirds of which is extracting, shipping refining and trucking around hydrocarbons which are stored sunlight.

It ain't. The lower bound on cost is the fusion energy at a safe 1AU distance. It's ignited and will produce energy for another dozen billion years. With asymptotically zero cost panels and relatively cheap batteries anyone can ha
