  • Yeah agree, but maybe they could have like 4 categories: A-general B-power C-display D-specialised

    And then have a second rating system like 1-10 for example 1-bare bones 5-decent 10-the bells whistle

    Like on a computer monitor I state I need a C5 or higher to work. Or I buy a A4B4 cable that is for general purposes or something.

    This is just a quick idea, horrible idea actually, but because currently I do not know if for example I can use this cable in my drawer to charge my phone or use it as a display cable. So I feel like with USB C they wanted to make a universal cable, but now I feel like there is even more confusion than with USB B





  • Fuck I hope Hollywood finally realises that they have really hit the the bottom of the barrel regarding remakes. Also, some sequels or whatever-quels have been hit and miss.

    They need to focus on new fresh ideas, something new. Unfortunately they have to do something that is much harder now and that is not playing safe with proven IP. Make new IP, what ever gets the right team to be consistent with new movie ideas, maybe like Studio A24, will be in blue waters not fighting over the nostalgia against each other.




  • Some cities this can work, but some cities have been engineered to keep certain people out, we call it a tax on the poor, they cannot afford to live in the city, so they must stay outside like 30km minimum, and travel everyday in and out, about 1.5h a shot, so 3 hours total, plus 9 hours work. And for a salary if the employer is generous and pays above minimum wage we are talking US$250/month. 20-30% of this goes to transport (thank the taxi mafia which government does nothing against). When the government did put cycle lanes in our economic hub of a city, the poor decried since it took their public transport lane and gave the rich a nice cycle line to avoid all the traffic since they live close to work. Also, rampant crime makes it so that if you are poor and cannot afford security, good luck keeping your bike that won’t be stolen for scrap metal or whatever for a Nyaope hit (heroin with HIV anti retrovirals that have hallucinogenic properties as a side effect)

    South Africa and referring to Johannesburg, CBD to be specific. Yeah and our piss poor unemployment of 33% officially, closer to 50% unofficially, makes sure that if you are dissatisfied you can be easily replaced. Entrenched oppression is fucking hectic.






  • Of course not, hydrogen is pathetic compared to batteries and similar stored mass energy solutions, but hydrogen does have its place, the future should be a mixture of different solutions because many methods have their advantages and disadvantages, but having a mixture means we can apply the best solution to the viable problems. Let’s take transportation, you have a truck that earns money by travelling. If we want to transition away from fossil fuel, hydrogen makes sense over batteries that takes an hour to multiple hours to charge and the weight of the batteries reduce the overall payload of the truck.
