It might have cracks in the silicon crystal that might burn in over time.

But yeah, impressive that it could take this big of hail balls without braking the glass.

Small PHEV's would be ideal for the current generation. Battery advances will come, but we should always try to optimize with the current technology and 10 cars with a 10th the battery of a Tesla would be better for the future.

Even WWF doesn't think avoiding palm oil is a good solution. Not short term and definitely not long term

https://wwf.panda.org/discover/our_focus/food_practice/sustainable_production/palm_oil/

Palm is the most efficient crop for producing a wide range of fats. Replacing it with some other source of fat will require more land and water, and disrupt nature in another part of the world.

Especially when you start typing something and it already started searching with your partial input and you your further and notice the thing your search for is first so you press enter, for it to now place another thing first with the extra input 😡

How can "displ" open display settings, but "display" opens a help page in Edge

Their brain was bigger and took longer to fully mature so it could be that Neanderthals were smarter and would not be stupid enough to eat magnets.

Maybe we were more social or aggressive, wasted less energy or they were just absorbed or killed by our species.

No tax on emissions mean that companies that try to pollute less can't compete. Either investments for less pollution or the pollution itself needs to be posted on to customers. And if a less polluting alternative costs more right now, it might become the cheapest with carbon tax.

You'd be surprised. Long trips literally produce tons.

The emissions of this trip, if every passenger flew economy, is >2 ton CO2 per person.

The annual emission of a eu citizen is 4 to 7 ton a year so for a month that's 350kg, given that he is not living on eu standards it's quite safe to take the lower bound. The co2 of hitching on cargo ships and trucks is neglectabel, but if he has to catch a bus for most land travel, we can set it to 500kg max.

Taking the plane emissions at the minimum bound and the alternative maximal, it's still 3x less. And personal emissions I think we could reduce by a lot in the next 10 years with greener agriculture, industry and just consuming less. Plane travel will not improve drastically the coming 20 years

That statement is just completely wrong. The correct statement should be '70% of the emissions from oil and cement products can be linked to 100 companies'. And linked means produced here. It also includes the products these companies sell so it also includes: the CO2 of the production of your PC, some of the electricity your PC used, recycling your PC,...

It's basically the 100 biggest oil companies. They themselves make roughly 12% of this pollution, bit that is only made to produce the oil.

Companies are also not just producing CO2. No one is polluting for fun. It's all done to create products for customers. Less products=less co2. Ofc it might be possible to reduce emissions in production, but producing less is the easiest and will be needed, especially ppl from the West. Don't be fooled, even with all the 'greener' industry and all heavy industry moved elsewhere, we still produce multiple times the amount of CO2 per Capita than China or India.

If the train drives slow enough that is takes 3s between when your head gets through and your feed are trough, it also needs to take 3s on the other side or you are ripped to pieces or squashed.

Now if it takes 0.1s, you also have to come out in this time and will have a velocity, the same as the train.
