I was thinking it would be good if there was something similar for kids. They seem to fall into a whirlpool of trash content.

Some of my favorite memories of that time are firing up a multiplayer game of Doom on the university LAN, and then later at my first job playing Duke Nukem 3D at lunch time with my colleagues. A little later at another job playing 4 vs 4 player Age of Empires with my colleagues. We don't have that anymore, and hardly any games these days are LAN multiplayer as well.

Looks great. This could be a form of image compression.

I saw reports on that before the GLP1 craze. Calorie reduced diets for lab animals generally increased their life span.

I think the opium war were also won due to weapon advantages. The British cannons could be fired from further away, they could handle larger charges of gunpowder than the Chinese. Another advantage of metallurgy. Today's jet engines are largely the same thing. Maybe the troops were also more battle hardened.

I've done some long trips with my i3. The key is to turn the engine on when the battery reaches 75%. The battery then absorbed the large power draws when accelerating or going up big hills. The engine does vary in RPM depending on my power draw, and by the end of my trip, the battery is usually not significantly lower, maybe around 60%. I usually turn off the engine when I'm almost at my destination so I can use the remaining battery energy.

I think that's becoming gold. That's why we're seeing the price action in it over the last few years. In a world with little trust, only gold is trusted. Even the Netherlands is repatriating a portion of their gold reserves from New York to London.

I wonder if heavy trucks pay correspondingly higher then. I would imagine the damage they do is disproportionately higher.

The government itself is the biggest criminal enterprise. I guess they are worried about being eclipsed.

Another policy is to charge EV's registration fees that are way higher than ICE vehicles.

Plug in solar is nice because you don't have to hire an electrician, just plug into an outlet.
