- Comment on Has the scientific community ever reconciled with the fact global warming is going to happen and there is no stopping it? 2 weeks ago:
They proved that it is happening, that it is caused by humans and explained again and again how it can be mitigated.
That’s all science can do. You might be thinking of technology and not science.

I guess the point is many people are thinking boobs pushed up is how they look normal.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 4 weeks ago:
I wasn’t aware balcony solar isn’t a thing in other countries because it’s everywhere here in Germany. So I was wondering what new thing they are talking about being even more easier.

but if it uses the same technology as laptops Lithin-ion I don’t see it lasting much more than 10.
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 5 weeks ago:
The batteries won’t be dead immediately. These studies saying they last so and so long define “lasting” by still having more than 80% of the initial capacity (iirc). So for people who usually don’t drive more than let’s say 100 km at once most EV will still be totally fine.

Also imagine the logistics! You would have to refine the oil, get it from places all over the world and distribute it to all the gas stations all over the country. With electric cars you can just tap the already existing power grid.
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 5 weeks ago:
Batteries only last 5 to 10 years max
Source? I thought we don’t really have sufficient real live data, but it seems like the batteries last longer than was expected. And it’s not that they completely break, it’s just the lose capacity meaning range.
that is 12 minutes per person, it would still amplify the queue to the point where it would be impossible to get anything charged.
According to this estimate you simply would need 5-6 times more charging points than fueling points, which is already the case for the majority of gas stations at highways where I live.

On the other hand, I was always wondering how he could even be killed like this. Like you said a lot of people wanted him dead, which he had to be aware of and probably tool precautions like a release of his “data” in case of his death under suspicious circumstances.

I remember calling someone in another country was super expensive but you could predial some super long numbers which made it cheaper somehow
- Comment on YSK that a general strike is one of the most effective ways to push for change. There is a general strike in the works across the US for this Friday. 2 months ago:
You realize most people live paycheck to paycheck? Nobody wants to tell their kids they’re going to be homeless.
People have to realize the alternative is having their kids growing up in a fascist regime, where they can be murdered on the streets without consequences simply because some “regime official” is having a bad day.
I am not saying its easy but it won’t get easier when people don’t act now. In the end stage people trying to resist the regime will be insta killed or worse. Now you still can talk to like minded people and organize. Tell them you want to strike but are afraid of the consequences, maybe they will offer help.

As far as I understood it’s supposed to be a one day strike but repeating every friday which is a great way to build up the necessary momentum.

I am happy to hear it’s supposed to be a regular thing. This can lead to great momentum. Reminds me of fridays for future which became a huge worldwide movement (sadly disrupted and essentially killed by Covid).

Yeah, I guess they have to start somehow.

But even in Europe you can get backlash for it especially in a very small business. That’s why it only really works when its organised and everyone is participating.

Eeh didn’t you pay attention in economy 101? If you generate more supply than demand that’s a you problem. The free market will take care.

The rumor is he had PR people (which he fired at some point) probably doing stuff like this for him with exactly this goal to make him look like Tony Stark or a pretty cool dude who wants to advance science.
