  While Tesla is now and forever dead to me. I would love an EV without the surveilance, self steering, self braking etc…

  I want an EV that only I control, not run by some fascists software updates. Autodrive isn’t something that frees you from the burden of driving, its control over where when and how you go anywhere. Its control marketed as convenience.

  Give me the dumbest EV possible. It should also be cheaper to produce.

  I did of course, this isn’t reddit.;)

  It’s not a lab trial, it’s a field trial. There is a ton of on paper improvements before something like this moves into the field. It’s wasting resources. Think more, design more, then deploy and test in the field.

  Feels VERY innefficient, thus I suspect doomed from the start. Why pump water some distance to the device then from the device when you could just submerge the whole thing and save a ton of pumping energy? Better yet, place it where currents provide the pumping for free. You only need to pump the CO2 out as it’s captured.

  Also adding acid, then neutralizing by adding a base is added costs and input. Is there no means to recapture and reuse the acid and avoiding the base altogether?

  Isn’t the loint of Thorium reactors that they are small and modular, thus highly scalable by multiplying units. Your comment about scaling a single reactor is a cheap rhetorical device to miss the point entirely.

  Sadly, yes. I searched but apparently fat fingered. I found it now.

  Thanks!

  I don’t want an AI assistant. I don’t want a smart TV. I don’t want a driver assist car. I would love and electric car, but if it comes witb all this extra bullshit.

  Close. This is why I mastubate frantically infront of the cameras. It satifies they kink for surveilance and my kink in exhibitionism.

  The Dems are not one party. There legit members, but the party is controlled by the captured opposition. Their job was to give the illusion of choice and legitimate democracy while playing stupid as the fascists eroded all your rights. They never undid the harm republicans brought in even when they could.

  Legitimate dems were only permitted to give an aire of legitimacy to the whole dog and pony show. Yes voting matters, but the real battle was lost in the candidate selection within the DNC, where only the captured opposition are allowed to dominate.
