Europe@feddit.org•‘It’s only when you see 49-ton trucks in China running on batteries that you realize how serious electrification is’: Octopus Energy CEO Greg Jackson on Europe’s incumbency problemEnglish
2·2 days agoExcept they are in use now. Shorter range than long haul trucks until infrastructure is in place and cheaper per mile. But Tesla understood that issue you speak of that’s why they proposed auto driving 3 in a row so first one creates draft for the other two to increase range. As material science brings lighter weight materials that weight problem will get better.
Battery technology will get better too.
All your arguments are what people said for electric cars, yet here I am in Vancouver area where almost every second car I see is electric.

1·3 days agoYep, our milkman in the early 70s had an electric truck for making deliveries. Efficient stops and starts, no stink, less noise…all though all the glass bottles jiggling about then seemed louder without engine noise.

News@lemmy.world•Mom who forced 11-year-old to give birth at home with 'no medical care' gets max sentence
31·4 days agoI assume its what they could prove. Dad raped kid obvious guilt provable by paternity test if any question. Proving neglect was probably harder if daughter was in mom’s care mostly.
That science adage: To measure, is to change.
Yep I had a work computer that was affected by the Intel null password exploit in 2017. Event logs showed access allowed without password credential supplied, and my camera had been turned on permanently. The camera on/off only toggled the LED state.
There are little easter eggs everywhere.
I found one when using -v for verbose debug and manpages said use -vv or -vvv for more detailed output. So I figured what happens if i do -vvvv. The CLI response was “my, you are a curious fellow”.
Lol.
It could have been the samba tools, I forget which thing I was needing to view detailed info about.

Linux@lemmy.world•On mint for a while now, people usually call mint a newbie distro, any reason to "upgrade" to a different distro?English
3·5 days agoOf you like Mint stay with it. A friend of mine has been using it for 10+ years probably.
There are so many distros and you might find each one has something positive or negative about it.
Just use what you like.
I wasn’t sure. But web says this…
As electronic devices become smaller and lighter in weight, the component mounting density increases, with the result that heat dissipation performance decreases, causing the device temperature to rise easily. In particular, heat generation from the power output circuit elements greatly affects the temperature rise of devices. However, in applications (switching power supply smoothing, high-frequency power amplifier output coupling, etc.) where large currents also flow in capacitors, the power consumption due to the loss component of the capacitors can increase to the point that heat generation by the capacitors cannot be ignored. Therefore, the temperature rise of capacitors must be suppressed to the range that does not affect the capacitor reliability. An ideal capacitor has only a capacitance component, but an actual capacitor also has an electrode resistance component, dielectric loss, and an electrode inductance component
I actually don’t know much about electronics, but I have a speaker system where capacitors are known to get hot then the sound starts to crackle after about 5 hours.
Here’s some info from the web though…

There could be heat…you can buy sticky backed ziptie loops at places like home depot. Stick one inside that case wall and thread a ziptie through it to hold the wires off the board.

How do you set the noise cancelling adjustments without the app, or how do you set the equalizer options, or how do you alter the button options, or how do you toggle which devices to connect to from your dual connect list…if you have no app?






The Yast2 GUI system admin tools made my transition from Windows super easy. It was like the Windows old school control center. You can change your kernel boot parameters via GUI, adjust services and the enabled/disabled and other stuff via GUI, add or remove packages with check marks. You could probably do everything without touching the command line.
A lot of that has now moved to a cockpit-client launcher, which is just OK, doesn’t have the same buttons and knobs as YAST.
