As a native English speaker, both are fine (our language is totally incomprehensible.)

Is this a safe space to say that my favorite programming language rn is Python?

I'm gonna have a tough time buying an Eldin Ring adaptation of any kind.

[–] Beastimus@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, I can agree to that.

I agree with you in that we cannot have a society without some form of state, but I think the idea is that we would have small community governments with more or less direct democracy. Also, bio-essentialism? Really?

I can only hope they make that. Its honestly not that hard. I've probably done a 20-30% reduction in meat consumption over the last year or so (and I intend to keep going), and for the most part its just made the groceries cheaper and made me eat more fiber. That gives them multiple decades to make those changes too, and while obviously that'll take way more work to do that on a country-wide scale, they also have a full decade to do it.

I hope that goes well for them.

This represents a dramatic improvement if they can get this working. Like improved capacity and charge times are the main thing, but SSBs are also lighter (reducing tire particulate emission,) require less rare metals (like cobalt,) have dramatically reduced fire risk (which is a huge factor for some people,) and have potential applications in other fields (e.g. smartphones and stuff.) It looks like the tech Toyota is going to be using to make these (presumably for way cheaper than everyone else) is hella patented (they've gotten OVER 8000 patents since 2020.) They'll probably still be piloting these things at way too expensive for everyone, but it'll be interesting to watch this, cause if they can get a fully SSB EV in the price range of a reasonable consumer, that could represent a serious tipping point in the car market.

I am ashamed to say that I didn't even see that. That's lithium (or possibly cobalt.)

This comment is goated

TBH, I don't know any definitions of terrorism that are self consistent (that being, including everything that is definitely terrorism while discluding everything that definitely isn't.)
