Just like with all of these headlines, it will not charge in seconds outside the lab without cryogenic cooling systems. Pack density is already largely limited by cooling systems, so everyone looking for faster charging and higher range should really be focused on superconducting tech more than cell chemistry

This thread is wild simply because I don’t know any adult humans who actually take baths, and I have honestly always assumed the reason they exist at all is for washing small children.

I’ve been using my cheap $5 electric candle lighter for like 5 years now. It’s saved probably 10 butane candle lighters from the trash.

- Comment on Start-up idea 6 days ago:
Basically commercial grade equipment. A $10k oven/range which is designed to work 15 hours per day non-stop in a restaurant will last forever in your home. All the commercial manufacturers make “consumer sized” versions of their restaurant stuff for high end home kitchens.
- Comment on Start-up idea 6 days ago:
You can buy appliances which will last that long, but they cost a lot of money. The reality isn’t that people forgot how to make things durable, it’s that consumer demand is so conditioned by price, most people “prefer” to spend less on appliances they will replace more often.
The average appliance these days is actually significantly cheaper when adjusted for inflation compared to the 60s and 70s.

Your gay friends were having a chuckle. Women don’t smell like fish unless there’s a serious hygiene issue. And then it’s more like regular BO with a bit of a twang.

It’s one of the reasons I think public voting is a terrible idea. It’s a wet dream for hyper-targeted engagement farming. Even to the point it creates a bit of a nightmare scenario for spear phishing and malware injection. The stated “transparency” benefits just seem incredibly trivial compared to the risk, especially when actual malicious actors will simply spam bots and alts, while actual users must navigate this weirdly huge threat surface for basically no good reason.

- Comment on Lawsuit Alleges That WhatsApp Has No End-to-End Encryption 2 weeks ago:
Yes, any time you can store and recover encrypted cloud archives across devices, without needing to transfer keys between devices, it implies that there is a key archive somewhere in the cloud. Even Signal struggles to get this both user friendly and properly secure without compromising forward secrecy. I believe they still actually make you explicitly do a local key transfer to populate a new device, even though they have cloud archives now. Whatsapp doesn’t do that. And the app also clearly leaks some amount of unencrypted data anyway, archives or not.
- Comment on Lawsuit Alleges That WhatsApp Has No End-to-End Encryption 2 weeks ago:
It is end to end encrypted but they can just pull the decrypted message from the app. This has been assumed for years, since they said they could parse messages for advertising purposes.

I think most modern turntables have a built in pre-amp so it’s less of an issue. If it doesn’t have a ground lug itself then it’s probably not an issue.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
The ground straps are for a turntable, not a power ground. The audio signal from a record player is incredibly tiny, which means it needs more amplification stages (usually if you have a phono input, it has another pre amp stage). Because of this it is important that the turntable and pre-amp have a common ground reference to eliminate things like a DC offset or ground loop which would otherwise be amplified more than other audio artifacts from other sources.
- Comment on If trump is really implicated in Epsteins pedo-ring what is your theory as to why this wasn't leaked by an opposition leader? 3 weeks ago:
What more evidence do you need that hasn’t already been leaked? There’s not going to be a notarized letter which says “I, Donald Trump, Fuck Children.”
On the other hand, there is a fucking birthday letter to Epstein where Trump very clearly does a “wink wink we have the same secret wink wink.” Like it literally calls his relationship to a known pedophile a “wonderful secret.”
