ZFS has built in error checking and correction if you have parity data. Its less if they have had corruption and more that it doesnt matter, because their system is designed to correct it automatically anyway.

With EXT4 over 30 years, you’ve likely been lucky or unaware of any corruption. Guess thats the same thing in the end.

The author posts transcripts of his video. Here is this one.

CATL first uses for the tech are literally car batteries. Your info looks to be outdated. The energy density of these new sodium batteries is apparently just 5% less than current lithium batteries used in electric cars.

The platform is called naxtra. They are also using it in their mixed battery car batteries called Freevoy that are primarily sodium, but also lithium.

The link above is the transcript of the posted video. It covers both electric car platforms.

Jessica Alba went on to make a few hundred millions selling soap, so shes got that going for her.

This is called “bolting” in gardening terms, when a plant goes to flower or seed.

I’ve worked in a heavy industry space where the “computers” were just slightly complicated circuit boards working together. No OS, no networking, nothing but circuit logic running hilariously important machines. The cabinets were locked in a small area deep in the facility that was manned 100% of the time, and were rarely accessed, so it would be a big event for anyone to interact with them. There were no windows for “someone with a clipboard” to just be waived in to mess with them.

There was no remote access, and no social engineering possible. Anyone who could work on them was well known by everyone who would be in the room. An insider threat was basically the only kind possible, but the only “hacked” output would just be a failed “off” state, which wouls be replaced.

There really are “unhackable” computerized machines out there, but only because calling them “computerized” is a stretch.

I mean, just do it anyway, onion or not. Bring some joviality to politics.

Nope, I was wrong entirely. I deleted my comment and added the below in. Youre dead on about vegas killing it for the loop:

Based on the most recent article I can find with the head of the monorail system, you’re right:

How do the Monorail and the Vegas Loop complement each other? What’s the future of the monorail? Are there plans to get another leg of that going?

What we plan to do is run the Monorail the way it is, until we can’t anymore. What will almost certainly determine that is the trains wearing out. We’ve got nine trains, if we were going to replace them right now it would probably be a $300 million purchase, and we can’t afford to do that. Nobody else could either. Once that stops, our plan is to use the monorail structure, the stanchions, take the track off and put a two-lane road on top of the monorail and tie it into the (underground Vegas Loop) system.

Any guesses of the Monorail lifespan?

We keep saying eight or 10 years.

There were some light rail conversations on and off for maybe the past decade. Would light rail help?

Taking a lane off the Strip for light rail seems counterproductive. The properties have never supported it. And if you don’t take the traffic away, then I don’t know that light rail speeds anything up. I mean, if you’re able to run in the same lane as the train, then I don’t know (if) that does you a whole lot of good. But it’s a very expensive system to put in. One of the real benefits of (the underground system) is it’s free. The Boring Company is paying for all the tunnels, and the properties are paying for all the stations. There’s no public money going into the system.

He goes into it in the video, but the Las vegas monorail runs to many of the same locations, is cash positive, and is the 13th most used mass transit system in the US.

The issue in Vegas is that mass transit doesn’t fit a “luxury” experience that every bit of vegas is trying to sell you to fleece your pockets. The loop, especially the “new” stops that are literally benches outside of hotels with no tunnels, don’t either, but the “private chauffeur” pitch of the Tesla tunnels at least fit the grift.

Home ownership is a public record.

“Blackrock” isn’t gonna give you much info to work with, unless you want to burn down the houses they own. Unfortunately, lots of innocent people live in them, so that isn’t a good answer there either.

This is a very serious gerrymander as well. The current house seats from texas are 65% GOP to 35% DNC. This would push them to 75% GOP and 25% DNC.

Do you know how texas votes statewide? 56.1% GOP. Yea, texas is already gerrymandered to fuck, they just want to fuck it way, way more.

Good on the dems to fight for actual representation.

Pricing seems to be 10x cheaper than lithium per kWh.

The battery has no rare earth metal in it, just common iron, which dramatically reduces cost. The 100hr storage is also 10-20x what lithium is designed for. Downsides appear to be slow charge/discharge and size of the batteries.

It is most likely a hybrid “iron air for long term storage, lithium for spikes and fluctuations” grid battery makes the most sense. These combo setups wouls likely have drastivally better long term storage and pricing then the current norm of “just Lithium.”

There is more info about them in this article about another company in the space called Form energy.

Hilton was also kidnapped and shipped off to several “scared straight” torture camps by her family as a teenager..

She had some horrible shit done to her, and apprently vowed to make her own money separate from her family. The vapid, “that’s hot” party girl persona was her succeeding.

Shes come out hard against what happened to her and tries to help current victims. She managed to get legislation passed to help them, but also takes a more direct approach.

I’ve never heard that pointer bullshit at all. Can you link it?

“Man” for “manual” is just an antiquated term kept around by Unix curmudgeons. “Help” is much better as it requires no explanation and conveniently is automatically abbreviated to its full name. It’s the common term used in most other systems that aren’t linux.

'Man" isn’t sexist, it just sucks.

Yes, we’ve had first master branch, but what about second master branch?

Cardio is good for you, bro.

At least lift some different rocks in some different ways.

The ceo is the son of one of the founders of Inuit, the turbotax/quickbooks company. Hes even on sliptgates board.

The owner is pure nepo and will never face any consequence for failure. Its pretty easy to see why they dont care about killing the company and fucking the employees.

Those 8.5 billion are producing all of that 100%. If you had 4 billion, it would be 45%.
