I watched several videos on a Combine Harvester's inner workings and I still don't understand how this thing works.
  • Again, this isn't going to work for bulk grains like wheat and corn. I've seen plenty of permaculture type farms and they're fine for small stuff and vegetables and more of that is good. But it's not suitable for growing 50 million tons of wheat. Labor is already short and it will get worse.

  • Covercrop is still monoculture, monoculture isn't inherently bad. Ultimately it comes down to cost. Labor is limited and a lot of the stuff you're talking about are fine for small volume vegetables but you're not gonna get feed the world wheat yields from that.

  • Gas-powered leaf blowers are being banned across US
  • Not exactly. Evs will be drastically cheaper to operate so they will try to use them as much as possible. The owners will push them and the drivers will try to avoid them when they have difficulty. Amazon doesn't like having variants, they prefer to have uniform vehicles that are identical. The point is that the people doing it don't have any choice in selecting the right tool and the people who do only look at spreadsheets.

  • There's still no sign of Star Citizen 1.0, but it did just get a revamped referral program so the die-hards can tempt in even more saps
  • The money is going to salaries, so it's basically just extended development. They're all working and doing something. It's basically just instead of releasing a game 6 years ago that was barebones and okay they're making the sequel and won't release the final game until they're well done.

    I'm confident it will release eventually, maybe another 5-8 years. As long as the devs don't die of old age.

  • Computer drive sizes over the years
  • The screw situation is finicky. It's a weird mix between you're supposed to have screws from your case/motherboard or sometimes the drive comes with one. But if you move stuff and drop the tiny tiny screw it's a hassle. Every motherboard should just have the little tab you just turn to keep it in place.

    Plus the newer gen fast drives get hot so they need a heatsink. The fastest maybe need heatsink plus airflow. So then you need an extra fan if you don't have enough airflow which is easy because it's flush against the motherboard and sometimes blocked by the GPU.

  • Gas-powered leaf blowers are being banned across US
  • It comes down to what you need it to do. Leaf blowing isn't super critical, like if you need torque to turn something it either works or doesn't. But electric leaf blowers work fine if it's slightly less power and you need 10% more labor to finish but it goes from 25 an hour in gas to less than a dollar per hour.

  • Temperatures reach 46C in Spain as Europe heatwave continues
  • There's a basic assumption that the climate of an area is fixed. We don't really have a good mechanism for adjusting the climate of an area quickly. But eventually you have to say that the weather hasn't been hotter than normal for a decade, this is just the new normal.
