• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Five-minute EV charging: CATL says "Hold my electrons and watch this"⁩ ⁨⁨20⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Couldn’t they have something like capacitor banks at the charging station? They’re not charging vehicles nonstop after all. I’m not sure what the efficiency loss would be, electricity isn’t my forte, maybe it’s a stupid idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you understand how many people 350 million is? How did this worm ridden ball sack float to the top?⁩ ⁨⁨20⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t either and I unfortunately recognise him. Although it’s still jarring whenever I hear him speak. I expect him to drop dead mid sentence. That perpetual death rattle is really strange. Like the movie’s longest death scene ever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Applying 'extreme heat' to lithium-ion batteries reportedly restores their capacity, and I think it's the sustainable tech breakthrough of 2025⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You won't believe no.1!!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok, but why should it be fought? And is dancing the best way?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subnautica 2 teases new creatures and co-op among the coral⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Will there be VR so we can pee our swimming trunks again?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Based tesla user???⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It wasn’t very easy to see without paying close attention to him though. And who was paying close attention to him at the time?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Morpheus Actor Laurence Fishburne Reveals He Was Turned Down for The Matrix Resurrections — So He Might Not Be Back for Matrix 5 Either - IGN⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait a second, what do you mean “Matrix 5”?

  Don’t we have enough of those already? Are they going after the “Saw” record or what?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That can replace adobe, well done!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨British soldiers tune radio waves to fry drone swarms for pennies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t look into the laser with remaining eye.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unlike in movies, most smart people aren't good in chess.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Aha. That’s because they all play go!

  Right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Asbestos is a great way to prevent the glue on your pizza from catching on fire !

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't believe it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Microplastics and peas. Very traditional.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo ‘warned to expect 145% tariff on Nintendo Switch 2’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m going to save so much money by not going to the US to buy one of those… I wonder what I’ll do with all that wealth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You see "him" everywhere including on ancient coins⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We call them…

  THE EUROZONE!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you really have to let everyone know⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have my doubts, but you’re right, maybe it does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you really have to let everyone know⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  But, advertising usually works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you use your blinker in a car?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t drive often, living in a city and therefore not owning a car. But when I drive in the countryside, I use my blinkers whether there’s someone around or not. Just like I stop at red lights whether there’s someone else or not, etc. I just do what’s supposed to be done. Not having to wonder if there are others is one less thing to thing about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  From that little image, they’re happy it takes a tenth of a second to check if a list is empty?

  What kind of dorito chip is that code even running on?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s probably an “import * from relativity” in there somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stuck⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A 'US-Made iPhone' Is Pure Fantasy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t be so negative. By 2035, a 2500 dollar us made iPhone might be possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t have to get a gun, they could get a pike and a trebuchet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proton⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was saved at the last minute!

  Let me sing it to you!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's lesson on threading a needle⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At that point, you can just hold the thread in your teeth and jump through the needle!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ahh Hell Naw⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It could be 7up.
