Could it be that it’s using less power as it charges? ie automatically shuts off power hungry features while charging?

Good data is so hard to get.

What I’d actually care about is how many minutes of usage does 30 minutes of charging get me in both standard and ekeing out as much life as I can mode.

Pretty interesting!

The Wikipedia article has a ton of info. This magazine article which Wikipedia references is imo a better introduction https://knowablemagazine.org/content/article/technology/2022/cochineal-red-dye-bugs-moves-lab

Ateam has managed to bioengineer a fungi to produce it, but with very low yields. Another team has managed to get e coli to produce it, they estimated that a 100,000 L fermenter could produce the same amount as a hectare of land.

100,000L is 100m^3 which is a cube with 4.7m side length. ~15’x15’x15’ or uhh ~~~the size of 4 F150s.

Edit to add: a hectare is 100m x 100m ie ~100 yards x 100 yards.

in bc we have two tier pricing, the first X kilowatthours per month is I think 0.08CAD (~0.05USD), the second is 0.15CAD (~0.11USD)

Our power mostly comes from hydroelectric dams, but we wheel and deal it interprovincially so within the course of a day we’ll spend some time importing and some time exporting which gives us lower rates, and lets other places run more efficiently (ie Fewer gas turbines)

Is there a way to set up patreon for any ad free website I browse?

Could my browser have some sort of cryptographically signed cookie that would let ad-free websites deduct 1-5 cents from my browsing account?

Website could check for the cookie before loading the ads?

Has this been tried?

Is that what we call Beaver Belly in Canada? (from drinking contaminated water?)

Me too, should we start a community for accidental criminals?

Edit to add: I accidentally shoplifted shoelaces. I put them in the breast pocket of my shirt while looking for a few other things in the store. I think I left without buying anything at all.

As a person that actually torrented a Linux iso on Friday, thank you! Lol

Ha guess why I’m on lemmy right now.

Lol, yeah they’ve just learned to pretend to be too avoid being everyone’s tech support.

It’s why I tell everyone to get a mac: I don’t know anything about them.

Can a business transact with an animal?

If a crow puts a toonie in a vending machine, and manages to buy chips does it legally own the chips? Or can an agent of the business that runs the vending machine confiscate them and keep the money?

Okay, I think $80 Canadian for a case, psu, mobo, cpu, & ram is sounding pretty reasonable. I just don’t know of its enough processing power for the video stuff. But I guess if not I can upgrade the mobo/cpu or add a graphics card.

Thanks, that channel looks great.

Re offsite backup: Yes I don’t have so many family photos that it will be difficult/ expensive to store online. But I need to get them together first.

I don’t have a computer with a bluray drive, only laptops.

Wow I misread the battery capacity on the unihertz tank and was like when was 2000mAh last a big battery? It’s 20 000 mAh. Also there’s a Tank2 with only 15 500 mAh.

Tomatos potatos and corn

Charcoal???

A man’s gotta sleep

I don’t see what could possibly go wrong

Ask if they want to snuggle? At least now you have something to talk about.

Wow t.i.l.

Coquihalla highway has something like this to keep avalanches and rocks off the road.

It’s the only tunnel I’ve driven that has windows.
