I’m all for Sodium batts in cars, but my understanding is this battery tech is a different chemical composition than other Sodium Ion batteries. Most of those are not solid state AFAIK.
Actually exciting battery tech that isn’t just fluff. They actually built the thing and tested it, rather than it being a theoretical, not-easily-produced thing and it worked.
As others have said, this is for grid-scale and not EVs, but still exceptional progress and very important for energy storage.
That article screams “written by an AI”. It repeats itself so much, it’s like a kid trying to hit the 1k word requirement for an essay in high school English.
What do you mean “improved”? Ubuntu is based on Debian.
Ok bud. Sure thing.
As a straight dude, my first internal knee-jerk reaction was “this is such a stupid solution to a stupid problem”, but then my mental “Don’t be an asshat because not everybody is like you” guard rail kicked in.
Clearly this is a product for a market of people that it works for and I’m happy for them. Enjoy your neat keyboard thing, long nailed peeps.
Repairable technology with encouragement to repair things that break by designing them to be fixable.
Open source technologies becoming the rule, rather than the exception (this is already the case in some ways, but I truly mean EVERYTHING).
Open Standards that make interoperability easier by removing walled gardens (iMessage, G-Sync, etc).
And Switch. And anything Retroarch supports.
The Steam Deck is amazing.
If you want “Apple-like” look and feel, KDE Neon, Ubuntu, or Pop_OS! are good first Linux distros to start with.
I took the joke as Manjaro is a poor impersonation of a pure Arch install, so it’s half-assed like the users. It’s a meme, though, so don’t take it too seriously.
Also, if you use Manjaro, it’s just a joke and you’re still awesome for being a Linux user.
Welcome to the world of Linux gaming (minus your Deck, of course)! Hope you have fun.
By this logic, Windows is like being kicked in the nuts by a Microsoft executive while they keep screaming “This is all because you didn’t adopt Windows Phone”.
Running macOS is like sticking your dick in the toaster and saying “it only costs me $69.99 each time I do it. It’s such a deal I’d be a fool not to”.
My Quest 2 has been running VR fine. ALVR’s latest update made me finally nuke my Windows partition I kept for VR.
Other than Angry Birds VR needing to have the recenter button hit after it’s first launched, so far it’s been fine for HL: Alyx, Beat Saber, Budget Cuts, and a few others I’ve tried. Literally the only workaround quirk I’ve found so far.
Meshtastic is neat and I always contemplate building a node for fun. However, I’ve yet to see many practical uses for it beyond maybe texting while hiking.
Entire article feels AI generated, right down to the typos.
pfSense = Firewall and router system based on FreeBSD. Has both open source and commercial versions. Built for SMB to Enterprise uses. Extremely powerful with all of the bells and whistles you’d expect from a professional firewall product.
OPNSense = Basically pfSense with a different UI. It’s a fork of pfSense. Much of the same capability, but is built by a smaller company.
OpenWRT = Replacement firmware for embedded devices (as well as x86). It’s open source WiFi router firmware that runs on tens of thousands of devices. Many vendors will even base their custom firmware on OpenWRT and put a different skin on it (GL.iNet, for example).
Slava Ukraini!
It’s from Google intentionally breaking things
Thanks. I need eye bleach now.
