I have a couple of old Androids I’ve been wondering what to do with, what’s the simplest ROM flash, like what’s the equivalent of installing Linux mint for a phone?

I’d like to start there

cool, thanks for posting.

I’ll definitely check it out.

The thing wrong with a stable company is that it doesn’t afford those at the top uncontrollable, disproportionate influence and profit.

American business culture disdains stable companies that maintain their size.

American business culture advocates for and promotes unlimited expansion and profit increase above all else, which is obviously unsustainable and distracts from creating good products or social benefit If you put a moment of thought into it, and benefits the one or few at the top while exploiting everybody else.

When that venture inevitably fails, the winners at the top get to exploit their ill-gotten profit to influence culture at large, radicalize the exploited and propagate the exploitative system.

The winners are shuffled around, and continue making obscene profit from each successive top position at the expense of their society, simultaneously creating and breaking laws to further their selfish, unsustainable gain.

The product didn’t fail, American business culture failed.

they should have worked this into the title:

"A company needs to grow.

In the past few decades, the idea that every company should be growing, predictably and boundlessly and forever, has leached from the technology industry into much of the rest of American business."

The insane growth of solar power, especially in China, and solar efficiency, negates a lot of the potential promises of hydrogen cells.

the first commercial high capacity batteries made with non-rare materials can change energy infrastructure at any moment.

there are literally dozens of existing next gen battery candidates being pushed to commercial viability.

One of them’s going to be viable, and then more of them are going to be viable.

hydrogen cells aren’t going to fail because of the small amount of green hydrogen being produced, that will inevitably increase and become a more efficient process, but the timeline in the gains realized by that investment in hydrogen would be better spent in true renewables, which support green hydrogen anyway.

Good point. Indirect heat transfer; fixed.

Chilling the vegetables isn’t about the cooled air, it’s about the veggies in the clay pots cooled down directly by cool water.

Close to a zeer pot in construction but with modifications, like the functional difference between a broom and a mop.

Those are the conditions a zeer pot is meant to work in, although this fridge’s indirect cooling and lid rather than the pure evaporation of a zeer pot makes his invention useful in all climates rather than only dry conditions.

As for not being a closed system, that is the point of this invention: to have a simply refilled, working refrigerator with zero energy.

Not just evaporation, this is indirect heat transfer without electricity. Simple, cheap, foolproof, renewable.

Little pot containing fresh vegetables inside the big pot, pour cold water inside the big pot, after a day or two, you can pour the warmer water out and put new cold water in.

Insulation of the clay keeps the water cold, hence the vegetables cold, and all you need is any source of cool water.

It’s a really good idea in an energy deprived environment.

I’m well aware. I was hypothesizing about these 1000x panels from the article

I wanna ride my electric motorcycle around the country and chill out for an hour while my crazy efficient foldout panel recharges my bike.

I agree.

My problem is only with the visual clutter, I need some data is beautiful people to makeover the chart, or really, add in some margins.

I think it’s the line work.

Great data; I am whining.

Is this unnecessarily convoluted or am I just lazy?

Exactly my thoughts

Freaks me out if there was a little plaque explaining it before I went into the building, but if it works, no one’s going to blink an eye.

Sounds like the right kind of retrofuture tech to me.

Great, let Trump and musk blow each other

This is terrifying. How many people are going to die when the droughts last more than half a day?
