  • The Oxford comma is when you have a list of things that have basically one more comma than usual, following the penultimate member of the list.

    Oxford: Red, green, and blue.

    Standard: Red, green and blue.

    ... The thing that is missing from the OP sentence that dramatically alters its meaning is the word 'with', not a comma.

  • They actually are.

    Not yet at price parity with Lithium Ion, if you go by total charge capacity, and they are heavier and larger per watt hout charge capacity...

    ... but they can cycle a considerablely greater number of times, they have longer expected lifespans, work better in cold weather, can charge and discharge faster.

    EDIT

    Derp, ok, the above isn't solid state... but it is a viable product, without being solid state.

    Given the rate of adoption and research going into sodium ion related tech, solid state sodium ion may be a thing in under two years... a hell of a lot of people are actively working on solving basically assembly line and industrial use specific problems right now.

  • You're right.

    Silly me, stuck in the old way of thinking government's are supposed to serve their people.

    ... I seem to be remember something important in American history, some... broad concept, a tea party or... some dude ridin a horse real fast...

    I dunno, whatever.

  • Yeah I was gonna say... my first thought was that copper burns green, in various forms... probably not good.

    As the page says, salt+copper can lead to this or basically rusted copper can do this.

    Not good to be breathing, or getting absorbed into food.

  • Well uh, China.

    Untill they figure out that you can't just cram raw ore into a battery or computer.

    ETA on them figuring that out ... 2-3 years?

    Oh right, and then you actually have to build the refineries.

    I'm goin with 'within the next 2 years', being said for approximately 8 years.

  • I actually did this, milked the shit out of a free ancenstry.com membership, before they charged me.

    Long story short:

    Traced my lineage back to the American Revolutionary War? 🇺🇲 ✅

    Found out that I am apparently technically, literally an Italian by their blood right heritage laws, and the timing of when my ancestors had children vs got naturalized? 🇮🇹 ✅

    (Do I speak any Italian? ❌)

    Do I have any Canadian heritage? 🇨🇦 ❌❌❌

    Nope. Literally none, back to ~1700 - 1800, through anyone.

    So... maybe learning Italian is my future, idfk.

    EDIT:

    lol, welp:

    https://italyget.com/decreto-tajani-on-italian-citizenship/

    tl;dr nevermind , Italy can apparently just amend its law via the judiciary, at any time, so... I am not Italian.

  • The hilarious part of this is that they think they can do this to get to something approaching parity/self-sufficiency with China's level of Rare Earth Metals production, in like... no time at all.

    That's not even close to how any of this works, but okey dokey?

    They're literally the most incompetent economic planners / policy makers... at least since the Smoot Hawley tariffs.

    Even if this all like, actually worked, without legal challenges, to ... open up mining operations...

    You... still have have to do all the rest of the industrial planning/policy to... make... any of this... make any actual sense, and that's just... national heritage/environmental damage treated as moot.

  • Just somebody let me know when I can claim asylum in a more civilized country, as a persecuted class, where that class is 'I am Autistic'.

    Till then, I'll continue not publically existing.

    The US admin has already publically stated multiple times that they basically wanna holocaust us, send all the people with mental 'disorders', who use prescribed meds... to farm labor detox work camps.

    Just go look for quotes from Health Minister Brainworm.

  • They wanted somebody else to be ultimately liable for problems, not themselves.

    They wanted less headcount, especially amongst employees that are more intelligent than they are.

    They wanted to handle things via gladhandling and 'business negotiations', not actual strategy snd design.

  • Yep.

    Its... pretty much apocalyptic.

    C Suite finally 'won'; they decided they could do the job of engineers.

    They can't, of course, but their hubris will burn down the world before they admit they don't know something.

    Seems fitting for it to be his voice to usher us into a really just slightly different kind of apocalypse.

  • Its like you could make a cheesy shock drama 90s style TV show out of these:

    Tales From The Git: When CEOs Think They Can Code

    ... and then its like the UNSOLVED MYSTERIES kind of dramatic music and lighting, have some old solemn dude with a gravelly voice narrate it, give tallies of estimated amount of $$$ destroyed by each incident, job losses within 6 months to a year.
