    Having access to information about who voted on a post would allow people to locate brigading1 efforts and detect bots spamming down/upvotes on posts. Currently, only admins can access this information, which makes it harder for users to report such behaviour to them.

    Or provide the empire controlling most of the bots, extra ammunition to have AI determine a social credit score for everyone. Winner gets a free trip to El Salvador.




  • headline not claimed. 1 km2 as a continuous flat surface that can be pointed at sun is 250mw from commercial cells. Outside of our atmsophere, irradiance boost is only 33%. so 340mw. Geosynchronous over China will only gain up to 3 hours per day of sun. That can be a 75% boost in average daily power.

    except microwave energy transmission… While a 50% efficient transmission is possible (effectively 250mw earth equivalent delivered), it needs a 100 square km receiver array. Even at 150mw per square km earth solar, is enough space for 15gw of solar.

    So, it only makes sense at much larger scale, and only makes sense if denser energy costs as astronomically high as such a project. Beaming energy to other points in space, or even remotely powering a spacecraft are applications.






  • 1mw chargers are proposed for trucking, and exist. A smaller battery being able to charge at 10C is the breakthrough. The cars on 1000v platform and 1086hp for $37300-$45000 announced… is a huge deal. I don’t think even expensive supercars have been announced at 1000v.

    10C discharging has typically been reserved for small RC plane battery chemistries. LFP chemistries have supported charging at 10C but only with rapid degradation, compared to sane levels. Usual 30%-80% restrictions are likely to apply.





  • West is untrustworthy towards Russia to higher level. Stopping hatred of war is first step to building trust. Somehow in 2014, Germans had enough trust to finance Nordstream 2, while simultaneously playing the Minsk accords as a delay tactic to arm Ukraine. So there is definitely a deranged mismanagement of their evil.

    The obviousness to a 5 year old, is countries should side against those threatening war and extortion and not against those who do not, and whose enemy status and hatred is entirely manufactured by propaganda of your enemy.



  • The pathethic loser response of amplifying losing war on Russia instead of allying with Russia is dividing and pitting allies against each other and against Mexico. Military cooperation against China interests is still amplifying. (Canada defense pact with Philippines is actually the more likely vector for war on China than Taiwan).

    US overtures to Russia are tied to Israel dominance. Disarming Iran in exchange for pacifying Ukraine.

    Extremely simple coordinated policy is to ensure US made cars go up $10k+ in cost. Export tariffs on materials and Canadian energy, matched by Europe. No manufacturing in US, no US weapons purchases. Kill Boeing, Caterpillar, Deere exports. Destroy US agriculture competitiveness with Canadian Potash export tariffs. Get Asian colonies on board by flirting with North Korea, including using them as a nuclear shield.

    No one was ever safe from US. The pathethic losers who chose sycophancy to US empire, still have the choice to stop being oppressed losers. That path is not through half measures of believing propaganda on accepting the US’s enemies as its own, and their 5th column traitors that keep repeating the propaganda.
