  • China develops iron battery 80 times cheaper than lithium that can last 16 years. It provides a budget-friendly, high-endurance answer for the world’s massive energy storage needs.

  • tldr, how is this breakthrough different than than the other battery breakthroughs? I read some new battery that solves "the world’s massive energy storage needs." about once or twice a year and so for not a single one had a noteworthy followup a year later.

  • How is this possible?

  • Would that be like on a tripod in the audience area recording the screen?

    yes.

    Seems lossy somehow

    it is! but that's where Shannon sampling theorem comes in. The sampling only needs to be twice as good as the source, and then you can reconstruct the source perfectly. (with some assumptions, e.g. correct color gamut, focal point, etc.).

    Jump

  • if you have a good camera (2x number of pixels, and 2x colordepth than the movie), then you could make a camrip with perfect quality (assuming some calibration frames, and a cinema that gives no fuck). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist%E2%80%93Shannon_sampling_theorem

    though I guess that's still too much effort for most, and most early leaks are digital copies, as the other comments suggest.

    edit: newer comments suggest camrip with a bad camera

  • at the end of the day, his only crime is being annoying. He didn't kill someone, didn't steal anything, etc. So 6months seems fair.

  • "I know for a fact that I'm not going to go to jail. Not one day in jail. I'm going to laugh my ass off when all these motherf***ers are saying I'm going for 30 years, 20 years, five years, 10 years. I'm not even going to do one day, bro. They'll give me a fine and say, 'Don't come back to Korea.' You're the one that's going to look so dumb when I don't get any jailtime or anything. Bro, I'm going to laugh like a f**king villain.

  • more users means, they should do much better than the ones with less users (assuming each user is worth the same/requires same infra).

    at the worst case, a bigger org could just copy paste a smaller orgs system a couple times to get the exact same uptime, with same budget per user*. The benefit of bigger orgs is, that they can consolidate these separate system a big system that is more stable AND costs less. If this wasn't true, we wouldn't have big orgs in the first place**.

    * yes, it is NOT the same budget for the users. You can't JUST copy paste the system, you'd also need to think how you split it up. I know there are a million little things to nitpick here, but this can all be solved somewhat easily, and they wont change the overall argument.

    ** regulatory capture, lobbying, corruption and creating a monopoly could also be consider aspects of "consolidating into a bigger system". This doesn't mean why MS shouldn't be able to be better, it just explains why they aren't better.

  • I wouldn't be surprised, it it turns out, when the most efficient way to turn lightning into electricity, was to redirect it into a boiler, instead of harvesting it directly

    I think gemini is wrong on all points, and this is actually from an anime, even though I am not sure which .
