Modern CPU and GPUs are the pinnacle of human creation. Each step, from design to build is resting on the foundation of decades of learnings and millions of hours of highly trained and educated individuals. All of this knowledge and talent is guarded. I don’t think you fathom the scale of which you discuss. At best we can play around as aggregated hobbiest and make perhaps a 1980s tech CPU.
Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
My daughter is 7 and no unsupervised internet, at most some YouTube videos. She gets tablet time but its just educational games and videos, mostly Khan Academy and PBS content.
Furthermore my wife is working with all the other moms to build a pact to keep our kids cellphone free as long as possible. Soon as one friend gets one they all want one.
The semi-solid is about 2x of LFP but vanilla lithium cells are about 1.5x of LFP. Its hard to nail down specifics because there are so many flavor of chemistries and designs (high current vs high capacity vs extreme temperatures).
As someone who works in the battery industry I want to applaud them for calling the battery for what it is; semi-solid state. So many dirt bag companies keep throwing the term “solid-state” batteries around for prototypes they’re working on but they dont exist yet, they’re an aspiration. No company has figured this out yep so right now best you get is a semi-solid state that has improvements over existing chemistry but a whole bunch of additional caveats and negatives.
You are correct but the energy density is half. For this huge bike in the article you probably could get away with it but for a proper small/light ebike LFP doesnt make much sense because they’re so heavy.
This article doesnt mention this is a 4 year phase out period so this doesn’t happen all at once. I work in consumer electronics, some things will get easier, some harder, but generally it will all get more expensive.
For my trixie Debian boxes I just did a normal apt upgrade, rebooted, checked the kerenel with uname -r and confirmed it was 6.12.85-1. All set!
But google still gets paid. The advertisers will just pump money into Google’s coffers.
Prostate cancer is really easy to treat and delay, unfortunately. I have a family member dealing with it right now, very late stage, and its still extremely treatable.
Two full time working parents while raising little kids, having to help care for aging parents and help them navigate the health system is exhausting. I’m supposed to be enjoying my 40s, were financially set at least, but I still feel like I’m stuck in an endless grind. American dream.
Did mine early March and I’m still waiting for the Feds to give me my money. Where’s my money?!
Picture a rock getting thrown into a body of water and its ripples. Now just scale that up to 3 dimensions and all materials and you have RF!
Driving on the road with humans and highway driving. Humans are remarkably stupid and volatile and yet, by and large, driving is remarkably reliable and safe despit the fact everyone is controlling a 3000+ lb weapon whilr distracted by thoughts and their phones. It blows my mind.
Debian also for decades but started with Slack in the late 90s. Hello Linux buddy!
I have it available via a reverse proxy with vouch proxy enabled for 2FA.
I havent messed much with my servers in 2 years. I think that means I’ll hit my RIO in another 5 :)
Cutting board extensions is exactly what I did on my first ebike build 12 years ago because the fenders were way too whimpy. Well done sir!
Hello fellow pumpkin head! I too have a fat head and once upon a time had a fantastic local optometrist who informed me that most all Maui Jim plastic temples are thermoplastic. He had a tiny bin full of extremely hot salt, he stuck the temple in, softened the plastic and formed it to my head. He repeated until they were perfect. 15 years later I still use them, somehow havent broken them. Highly recommend finding a great optometrist.
