Wow that’s a lot. I imported mine from Clove UK.

Speaking of the cam, I find it quite good. It’s comparable to Pixel a-series. What sucks for me is that it’s not consistent. That’s entirely software though.

Consumption under capitalism something something

Silicon Valley does what it needs to do to maintain and advance its material position. They’ll read, misread, invent whatever ideological tenets they need to do so.

CATL’s that went into mass prod sometime ago are 175Wh/kg.

Sodium-Ion is already in production at CATL. Been for about half a year if I recall. It’s slightly less dense than LFP but it’s cheaper and promises to get cheaper yet.

They’re using LFP in the Mach-e as well and they’re losing money on every sale at signuficantly higher price tag. So I think it’s gotta be something else.

28.3K really is cheap in this context but I’m skeptical that this would be anywhere close to the price when it comes out. Seen too many “40K” that turn out to be 60K in reality. I mean in any context, the avg sale price of new vehicles is over $50K.

For all the “make it a car” folks out there - Ford F-series is the best selling vehicle in the US and Canada. That’s just how fucked we are.

Oh yeah the unsolvable deficit had my jaw drop. They packaged run-of-the mill pro-1% noliberalism as objective fact. It was crazy.

Nothing compares, to you

S0ix is fine. LTT doesn’t know shit about shit. I use it on first gen Framework. It works way more reliably than S3 since there’s little nees for special handling in drivers and firmware. The Framework already consumes 3W when idle. S0ix brings that down to 1-2W. The first gen suppprts S3 and that doesn’t consume less power. So either way I need suspend-then-hibernate or suspend-to-both and that’s what you want as well. You’d have to forgo Secure Boot to enable hibernate. If root is on Ext4 on encrypted LVM, hibernate works even with a swapfile (default on modern Ubuntu). For fancier setups like root on ZFS you’d need to use encrypred swap partition for it. That’s what I currently use. If you want to know more details, have Qs, ask away.

This is true but it’s nice to have the whole app, data and database in one place, going together, snapshotted together, “backupable” together. It’s slower for sure. That said it can be reasonably fast with a large pool (more disks). With the magic of SSD cache, database reads fly and reads are the majority of the loads in my heads. In the future I would put root on ZFS as well and either do SSD cache or have root on ZFS SSD pool that gets send/recved regularly onto the spinning pool so it’s easy to restore when needed.

I really loved playing this game.

I meant the CCP isn’t, not CXMT.

Wrong. Plenty of German large corpos helped Hitler come to power and made good money under him, and are prime brands these days. E.g. Agfa, BASF, Bayer and Sanofi. Our capitalists definitively do not want democracy. Plenty of them have said as much and their interests are aligned with autocracy. Democracy means taxes and regulations and they def don’t want either of those.

That’s what I’m thinking too. They’re gonna go as far and as wide as they can go.

Kamala Harris contributed plenty towards destroying democracy by refusing to represent a significant part of the American piblic that would typically vote D.

A smart decision which the Americans are probably not gonna make would be to nationalize Micron once they become unviable for-profit business, in order to keep the competency and ability to make RAM, which is an essential economic input these days. Instead I think they’ll just let the CXMT gang buy them at that point, just like they’ve let that happen to so many important firms. That’s unless democratic socialism has taken enough control of the US political power.

Do you think they’ll stop expanding after filling the consumer memory market though?
