Personally I despise everything about the idea of influencers. I have yet to see one who wasn’t an outright attention whore or just trying to get free shit.

Exactly. It’s like an article I saw about some new internet tech that was “X times faster than broadband”. Broadband is a type of transmission using multiple frequency carrier waves to transmit data. It ain’t a speed.

Wh/kg or yes maybe volume Wh/cm^3…

The only other thing I’d care about it charge speed. Maybe it doesn’t last as long but I can fully charge in 10 seconds? Yeah I’m interested. Hell I’ve never had a car yet get the estimated miles per gallon on the sticker. It’s all bistromathics as far as I’m concerned.

It would be better with distributed generation like solar. The idea of a central generation point and transmitting it long distances is just not the best way (single point of failure/attack, losses of long distance transmission, often dirty and/or dangerous). Having lots of little solar farms all over (or even private) is better. I’d imagine most of Californians could provide their own EV needs if you have a large enough roof.

Take this with a grain of salt …. I’m not a power engineer but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Well maybe Google shouldn’t take political contracts.

I’m stealing this… way too funny

Since this whole VMware debacle we’ve been playing with xcp-ng but I’ve been meaning to look at proxmox. Is proxmox really worth taking a look at?

Broadband is not a speed.

ROKU has patented a way for me to not even look at their tvs.

This makes me want to look at TCL TVs more closely. Thanks.

I still do this. And I’m a 53yo dude.

What I’d really like is something more akin to google drive streaming. Let me see all the files in the file system but only go get them if I try to open it. I don’t have room for all 2TB of files on my laptop but I don’t want to constantly go click on which folders to sync either.

Pfsense and opnsense are also very good for this.

Yeah that’s gonna be a no from me dawg.
