That's what I thought too, initially. But then I thought that maybe there is a good reason for the specific 54.6V figure. But I didn't dig deeper

Don't really have a clue about e-bikes. But looking through some e-bike chargers on Amazon, they have maybe 100 W to 200 W. USB-PD (EPR) apparently supports up to 240 W. Do note that the e-bike chargers are rated at 54.6 V, though, while PD only supports up to 48 V, and I guess the higher voltage might be required for the cell chemistry. So idk if it would be possible to design your batteries around the USB spec. In any case, you would need a separate charger and special cable to support 5 A over USB anyways.
This is the classical understanding of it. Determinism basically says "given some initial state of the universe, you can pre-determine the end state before it happened". E.g. there would be enough information at any point in the timeline of the universe before the 9/11 terrorist attack to infer that it will happen, just like with your coin flip example. So the question becomes whether true randomness exists. If it does, then it will have a major say in how the universe evolves between its beginning and 9/11, due to how chaotic systems work. Your coin flip example is a typical argument against true randomness, but modern quantum mechanics challenge this point of view, opening up some more interpretations. I suggest the Wikipedia article on Determinism. It has some very interesting points.
I don't have a great scientific answer. But if you follow the advice from the guy in your profile picture, training your own mind and acting skillfully would on average have the best chance to inspire others to do the same
I agree. But the cool thing about it is that you can change it (on an individual level) if you pay attention. It's just kind of hard. But I guess it is not something to expect on a broad scale, given the course of humanity
Even radar would not cause cancer. At least not that I know of
I know them only from a feature with Soft Lipa but never really checked them out separately. Gotta do that!
Thanks a lot :) I do know Giraffes? Giraffes! a bit, and I'm also a great fan of math rock. This is also something my friends don't understand haha. I think all of your recommendations are awesome after checking them out! I will definitely put some of those in my music library. I liked Peela a lot, feels almost like a more modern blend of T-Square and Casiopea.
Absolutely! These are the obvious ones, maybe you already know them:
- T-Square
- "TRUTH" is an absolute classic, just like "サーキットの放浪者", and "Travellers"
- Casiopea
- I think "Be" is my favourite Album, but all are solid
- Masayoshi Takanaka
- the rainbow goblin album is my favourite, I think
- I watch this one when I'm sad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTDK5Bluh5A
And then also some that are maybe lesser known (no particular order):
- Katsumi Horii Project
- They have quite a lot of songs. "Way to morning" or "Flashback" are good examples. I also like "Jungle of Heaven"
- Trix
- "ECCENTRIX" is really nice, just like "An Index"
- Dimension
- Himiko Kikuchi
- Naniwa Express
- Yuji Toriyama
- Chikara Ueda & The Power Station
- Toshiki Kadomatsu
- The Gran Turismo soundtrack also has some hidden Gems here and there
I think what I like about this genre is that it combines very catchy melodies/riffs and chord progressions with really creative jazzy solos. I have not really found much recent stuff (>2010), though. But I can recommend SOIL & Pimp Sessions. They are more recent and more traditional-jazz-oriented.
Bonus if you like light prog/math rock: Check out Elephant Gym. Spring Rain (春雨) is one of my favourite songs.
I really love Japanese jazz fusion. None of my friends understand my excitement about the EWI solos, they just say it sounds like Mario Kart music lol. I'm also into Buddhism, but dont have anyone else with this interest.

yup, my thoughts exactly, don't really see a any benefit for using USB-C here. What would be good of course is to have any standard at all for these connectors.
