- Comment on Happy anniversary of the day absolutely nothing happened at nowhere square! 2 weeks ago:
even Wikipedia says no one died in the square.
The Chinese Red Cross had given a figure of 2,600 deaths but later denied having given such a figure.[16][17] The Swiss Ambassador had estimated 2,700.[18] Nicholas D. Kristof of The New York Times wrote on 21 June that "it seems plausible that about a dozen soldiers and policemen were killed, along with 400 to 800 civilians.

- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 3 weeks ago:
case and glass screen protector
i once removed the case to clean it, and the slippery phone fell and cracked the back glass
also, in the period that i didnt have the screen protector, it got all rigged up by the house keys, and eventually cracked from a 50cm fall.
never again.

None said anything about actually reducing ticket price by that, high prices stays forever.
Standard ticket if you generate at least 1KW, otherwise the price goes up if you generate less, with a fine for less then 50W generated during the flight

- Comment on Does anyone have any advice on how to make homemade conductive paint to fix a. cracked carbon trace in a game controller? 1 month ago:
crush up some graphite really finely in a mortar (from a good source, like the carbon rods in some batteries or soft pencil leads, as the hard ones contain clay), mix with glue, play with ratios (the more graphite the better, but it might start cracking with too much graphite) and type of glue (elmers, superglue, epoxy, etc)
but i’ll warn you that it’s gonna work kinda bad compared to finding where the carbon trace originates and soldering a wire there (there’s gotta be metal somewhere)
- 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 month ago:
wha wha what
no, it’s an organic solvent like ethylene carbonate/propylene carbonate + some other stuff, which have a boiling point of 230+°C ( 446°F)
heating up batteries is (mostly) fine (under controlled scenarios with known good batteries, spicy pillows can always happen with bad batches) as long as the plastic holding them together doesn’t melt
you physically CANNOT make a lithium ion battery with water because lithium reacts with water
from the wikipedia page
Lithium reacts vigorously with water to form lithium hydroxide (LiOH) and hydrogen gas. Thus, a non-aqueous electrolyte is typically used, and a sealed container rigidly excludes moisture from the battery pack. The non-aqueous electrolyte is typically a mixture of organic carbonates such as ethylene carbonate and propylene carbonate containing complexes of lithium ions.[45] Ethylene carbonate is essential for making solid electrolyte interphase on the carbon anode,[46] but since it is solid at room temperature, a liquid solvent (such as propylene carbonate or diethyl carbonate) is added.

- Comment on Is cops being evil/lazy/incompetent a USA specific thing, or is it the same everywhere in the world? 3 months ago:
it’s everywhere, but in the usa it’s exacerbated by the fact that most people have guns
while watching bodycam footage I often find myself thinking “just open the car door and cuff him, why hesitate and risk starting a car chase”
followed by the realization “oh, he has a gun”
obligatory Don’t talk to the police
