  • I really hate that California dropped all new shower heads down to 1.8 gpm

    never heard of this, but wow I'll definitely keep it in mind next time I buy a shower head (which is probably never because of how much those things last, but good to know anyways)

  • Matrix 2.0 Is Here!

  • What would be the utility for someone, who cares about privacy and currently uses Signal and email for communication?

    Matrix is more like discord, no phone numbers, just email, and you can make big groups with different channels within. More meant for communities then something like Signal, that's mostly for 1:1 conversation or small groups

    What advantage would it give me over other services? Keeping the discord example i said above, no tracking, possibility to have end to end encryption, and open source code, along with the ability of having different instances that can communicate to each other, just like here on lemmy, so if you don't trust anyone else you can run your own instance

    Is Matrix anything good already, or is it something with potential that's still fully in development?

    It's mostly good already, but as with many other privacy focused services it lacks a wide adoption, so most of the communities there are about privacy, Linux and that type of stuff.

    How tech savvy does one need to be to use Matrix?

    The most used client, Element, is IMO very easy to use, you can directly register through there, and you get the choice of choosing between the official matrix.org instance (which on certain occasions is laggy due to the many people using it), or other instances

  • Given:

    Bite Force of T. rex: 45,000 Newtons

    Jaw Closing Distance: Approximately 0.3 meters

    Energy=Force×Distance=45,000N×0.3m=13,500Joules

    Say we have a typical 10w led lightbulb, how much could it power it for?

    Time= Power/Energy=13,500J / 10W=1,350 seconds, or approximately 22 and a half minutes with a single T-Rex chomp, assuming 100% conversion efficiency

    Just use solar (and renewables in general, but not everybody has a river or wind), there's no need to create more energy from fusion when you can just harness the energy created and shoved to us by the sun
