µLED doesn't experience any burn in, lasts decades, has perfect blacks and can reach higher brightness than you would ever want to look directly at. If they can get them to where OLEDs are now in terms of price they'll take over the market.

The first Nissan LEAF was the 2011 model, and it had 73 miles (117 km) of range — at a cost of $33,600 if Google’s AI research is right.

Why don’t you click on the damn link and check that it’s right?

Hurt is no one?

In the latest test, the WEST Tokamak held its reaction for 1,337 seconds.

They could have gone a few seconds longer but decided to stop it there.

If you really want to make a successful utilitarian line of EV trucks you need a DC V2L standard capable of delivering 10 kW or more. Maybe something like USB-C PD with communication lines reduced in number and the power wires bumped up to 10 or 8 gauge wire. That would enable you to make BLDC-powered truck accessories that perform better and are cheaper than gas-powered alternatives.

For example, a BLDC powered wood chipper with a 5 kW motor could chip branches up to 5” or 6” and, due to the nearly flat torque curve, it wouldn’t stall out and need to be unclogged like a gas-powered version. Log-splitters, post-hole diggers, saw-mills, etc. that are powered by small gas engines would all be vastly inferior to their EV-powered BLDC counterparts - both in price and performance.

I believe it’s a Christmas version of “1 man 1 jar”

Also, a Supreme Court justice who has taken millions in bribes ruled that bribery is legal. It's hard to have faith in the system when the nation's highest court is rotten to the core.

He has been on house arrest since 2020 after 9 years in prison and only had 2 years of house arrest left. His sentence was commuted but he wasn’t part of the pardons, so there’s no change to his status as a felon. All this means is they are removing his ankle monitor less than 2 years earlier than scheduled.

All the other cases where they sentenced someone with a federal gun charge for lying on the form were plea deals. ABC said they couldn't find any instances of someone being charged and convicted on that charge alone. You can't say this wasn't a politically motivated prosecution when the charge has never been used that way before.

I just finished Bob Brier's History of Ancient Egypt lecture series and he talked about this. They were the chief manicurists to the pharaoh. The lectures are over a decade old but really good - his enthusiasm for the subject is contagious.

I’ve got a big pile of lumber I had milled that is almost finished drying. I’m buying up the remaining woodworking tools I need to process it into various items. The American made options are out of my price range.
