1W of installed capacity would yield 24Wh of energy at 100% in 1 day at capacity. (1W * 24h = 24h)

Hence, you are getting an average of 6Wh / 24Wh * 100% = 25% capacity. Your winter numbers end up being 4-12% and summer 25-50% of capacity.

Wh/Wi/h is your capacity factor.

The days the steam engine are numbered.

Not really. Unless there are some breakthroughs in technology that significantly lower capex & opex for grid scale energy storage, they'll be sticking around for a long time.

There is an asterisk on the 1TW number, and that asterisk is capacity factor. In practice it means that depending on the time of year and location, the effective output of your solar panel will be between 0-40% of label capacity .

In my country for instance, you can expect 0-2% output from a panel in the winter time, which also happens to coincide with the peak demands (heating). Luckily, our politicians had some foresight in the 70s & 80s and built lots of hydro and nuclear power, which has been the backbone of our grid ever since (despite attempts to dismantle it).

So... you're essentially carrying around a power bank on the back of your phone all the time? Seems like a gimmick at best.

Honestly, fast charging has turned this into such a non-issue that you'll be hard pressed to find a more convenient solution.

Now that devices are starting to have built in features with AI automatically combing through all information on them, the idea of this sort of stuff being logged in the first place is concerning.

For instance, should someone prompting an AI to describe them beating up and torturing their boss be flagged for "potentially violent tendencies"? Who decides the "limit" where "privacy" no longer applies and stuff should be flagged, logged and sent off to authorities?

As I see it, the real issue is people being hurt, not text or fictive materials, however sickening they might be.

If the resources invested in spying on people and making databases were instead directed towards funding robust and publicly available psychiatric care I expect that'd be more efficient.

Minecraft for the fully breakable/buildable procedural open world.

An astronaut for president? That's actually pretty catchy.

Also seems like an interesting guy outside of that.

In the Scandinavian countries this sort of software is usually provided by the school/university, so the students don't have to buy it. You may however be (essentially) forced to use that software, since other options aren't supported. The exam software my uni uses for instance only runs on Windows & MacOS.

Since it hasn't been mentioned - containers.

Essentially lets you keep have browser tabs with entirely separate cookies from each other (like if you opened it in a different browser). Helps me keep work and personal accounts apart, and also sandbox evil^tm^ webpages I'm forced to visit (by giving them their own container).

I almost forget it isn't included in firefox by default.

I did pirate the game, and then it was so utterly awesome that I went and bought it shortly after they patched in the epilogues.

One of the reasons I have the steam achievement for finishing the game, but not the one for finishing the tutorial xD

The only reason I don't donate to mozilla right now is that mozilla doesn't actually funnel any donation funds to firefox. I want to support firefox with donations, but I can't.

Indeed, I'd like to, and hopefully will be able to. Unfortunately it is basically the universal method of communication at my campus - unless you use instagram... or snapchat.... :(

Hopefully it'll be possible to get others to make the move, but I'm not really that important in social contexts, nor are most privacy-focused folks.
