5 inches thick? It’s a chunky clam chowder can, yikes

It’ll last 25 years minimum, save 57,000,000 kronor (~6,000,000 usd), and reduce co2 generation equivalent to 10,000 cars. Neat!

Walle had the Apple startup chime when he recharged

The trailer for the new borderlands looked like the most soulless, boring cash grab. Anyone put much time into it yet?

Yeah remember the guy that put Biden bound and gagged on the bed door of his pickup?

Those guys don’t have time for hair.

Yeah don’t get me wrong- I get it’s a battery. But a battery that’s 5% efficient isn’t great. Now 72? That’s pretty incredible, I’d like to see that in action.

Thanks for the insight, I’m not a mechanical engineer, I’m a software engineer :) The walls on these spheres have got to be pretty thick- 400 tonnes is no joke. 3/4 of a meter if I had to guess.

Thanks, I missed that on my read through - 1000 feet of water is pretty serious pressure.

I’m pretty skeptical about this- wouldn’t a 30m sphere be incredibly buoyant when empty? I get its concrete, but it’s displacing huge amounts of water. So you’d need some massive anchoring, maybe that’s not a big deal. Second, I don’t know what depths we’re talking about here, but I feel like the stress from cycling these things daily would be insane- in high pressure salt water no less. I also wonder what the efficiency of this system would be compared to other similar batteries, like pumped hydro storage. It seems to me pumping out water to near vacuum while under crushing outside water pressure would be a significant power hog.

Now THATS a shit post

True- but they cost like 1000x more to develop too.

this headline is disingenuous. There are so many other things going on here:

• step dad and 2 much younger siblings. This kid was probably stressed out with new younger half sibs needing a lot of attention
• gun without a lock stored with ammo in an accessible place
• florida
• Christian prep school. Those kids either believe anything is real or are so hopelessly depressed they get into drugs
• parents are both lawyers. Talk about a high stress time consuming job that probably leaves little time for the three kids

But nah, it was just a chat bot that made a totally normal kid with no other risk factors off himself. They’re probably dying by the thousand right now right?

He should know, he fucking killed it

Apparently just saying please and thank you on every request is eating yup extra millions in compute

I’m on the same page with you about cache. Thanks for the tip though, I’m gonna look into this!!

Oooh nice- I have one of these too, but haven’t put in faster Ethernet yet. I’m gonna wait until all my network equipment gets a bump first.

The card you put in- is it the one that’s paired with the ssd cache card or something else?

I really doubt switch 2 games will emulate at all or well for quite some time.

I get the money argument. In that case, get the one that does more for you now now, and save up for the other one later. You don’t need them all at once.

I waited a year before getting the first switch, and almost 2 years for a ps4. I think I waited at least a year for all the other PlayStations too save the 5.

Getting something at launch isn’t all that great- bugs, limited games, max prices, etc… a year or so later and you get bundles and deals and lots of game choices.

I don’t have a deck- but a few of my friends do and I’ve played with it a bit- it’s great and I want one at some point, but I can wait for #2 to come out and then go on sale before I dive in.

It’s great!
