Had stinky tofu with curdled pig's blood in Taipei a while back. The people I was visiting had me try it at a night market. The smell was much worse than the texture or flavor. I could totally see someone who had grown up with it considering it comfort food.
Helped that we had all had a fair bit to drink already.
1000 charge cycles. If you charge twice a week, that's 500 weeks or a little less than 10 years. There's no mention of degradation over time.
But back-of-the-napkin, it means for this to be cost-effective, they may want to come up with some sort of replaceable or battery swap system. Not sure anyone will want to buy a vehicle that needs a massive battery retrofit every 8-10 years.
The Hydrilla and algal bloom mentioned in the article have been plaguing freshwater lakes near us for years. They effectively killed off several reservoirs heavily used by families and swimmers. The beaches are often roped off and people are warned to not let children wade in the water.
One of the reservoirs now has a permanent installation of an oxygenator pumping air to the bottom to let plant and animals not get choked off, but not sure it's working.
Same vibes as Ralph Nader in Bush v. Gore.
There's a divey bar 10m away where people have been watching results the last few years. Might head down there. Pretty sure it'll be packed.
Alternative is to crawl into bed and wait till January.
Edit: we have a lot of local races (Mayor, City Council, propositions) on the line. Might hit the bar just to watch those and just ignore the national stuff.
There's no real value to any of it.
Attach free beer to point levels and watch this thing explode.
I always assumed it was planned , since she was wearing a sun-shaped cover underneath. Why else would you wear one?
It sucks that the pearl-clutching media ostracized her so much.
People who have already early voted may not care so much about going to a rally. Just speculating. Still, not sure crowd size at this stage correlates to any meaningful outcome.
One of the prime rules of storytelling is that the hero has to have a flaw.
Superman is super. He can't lose. That's why the writers introduced Kryptonite. Captain America is a super-soldier, but is still mortal. Thor is a god, but can lose his hammer and his powers.
The problem with Superhero movies is that they all got so much power they became invincible, and boring.
Good, classic storytelling beats VFX 10/10.
413 is amateur hour.
