World's largest sodium-ion battery goes into operation - Energy Storage
  • I mean maybe, it's just a back of napkin calculation i didnt spend more than a 5s search, think of it as a lower bound I guess. I don't think my conclusion really changes if it's 40% vs 20%, point is that it's more than enough to power peak usage. I tried digging a bit more but couldn't find anything that contradicted or confirmed it. Here in Canada 1MWh per month is typical for an electrified house (ie electric heating, cooling and stovetop), but our houses are big, our electricity generally cheap and our climate different.

    Wikipedia lists avg consumption per capita for China as 5MWh/person/yr, half that of the US, Canada and Australia but that doesn't take into account household size which imagine is higher in china. Also worth noting China has been adopting evs relatively quick and they generally take a huge amount of power.

  • World's largest sodium-ion battery goes into operation - Energy Storage
  • So an average Chinese home takes ~1MWh/mo of electricity, they have 100Mwh and they say 300 discharges a year and support 12000 people. So they expect this to cover about a fifth of the energy usage, which seems pretty great.

  • Tech request: Meta data of location temperature in photos
  • It's not common but the pixel 8 has an infrared sensor in the camera that they advertise as being able to measure the temperature of stuff. Apparently it's fda approved to measure body temperature.

  • What YouTubers did you used to watch back then but not anymore?
  • Kurzgesagt went hugely downhill, I'll still watch the occasional video from them, but most of what they do now is super speculative tenuous science with 5 min of sponsored content.

    I remember way back in the day I enjoyed laci green for her sex ed content, but she just suddenly went super right wing.

  • To all you outside of the US...
  • Well your clearly not here in good faith so I'll keep it brief.

    Singh is in his pocket, a waste of a vote. I was an NDP voter all my life, I'm done.

    Sorry can't hear you over the sound of my dentists drill.

    Polliviere is an absolute idiot who will ride a wave of hatred for Trudeau into office.

    Worse than Biden, probably, worse than Trump no way.

    Voters in Canada have no power and no representation as all votes are whipped. Your MP is a seat filler

    No I live in a green riding.

  • To all you outside of the US...
  • No I would definitely vote for trudeau a 100 times over before Biden, and we have at least 3 choices in almost every riding. We don't have to worry about gerrymandering and voters reform while unlikely is at least a topic mainstream politicians will tall about.

    Comparing ourselves too much to the states is why canada is the mess it is, it's still no contest with the states.

  • Ironing
  • On the rare occasion I have to wear a dress shirt for work, I'm making sure it's as wrinkled as possible. I wouldn't want to be mistaken for one of the execs, it gives the impression that you don't work hard. I think it'll continue bubbling up in the same way not wearing a tie and not having curtails did.

  • Dr Disrespect Admits To 'Inappropriate' Messages With Minor: 'I'm No Fucking Predator Or Pedophile'
  • That's a lot of work on twitches side to keep it hushed which makes this weirder.

    I don't think that's weird, twitch really doesn't want the pr of being wrong or having a pedo on their platform, its a lose-lose and I would expect them to try and cover it up regardless.

  • How some federal employees are pretending to work using 'mouse jigglers'
  • If your on windows (yeah yeah windows bad) I would suggest Windows Power tools. It's developed by windows as a 3rd party tool so it's relatively easy to get approval to have it installed if you need it. and it comes with many other useful tools besides the always on stuff
