@nafnlaus I think we are both in UK from @dantarian post I suspect we are still in the early stages with standards really still in flux I think that there has been a new version of #CCS proposed that will have #VehicleToGrid capabilities but don't know if it will be backward compatible, but i do think it will be needed as part of Grid stability for us to to fully transition to renewables though at the rate Teslas are being churned out I could see #NACS as new standard I have Betamax/VHS vibs

Unblocking Hormuz requires not military escorts, but a radical hermeneutic shift in how we interpret the meaning of a dry gas pump. #CriticalGeography

Today I learned: that Gary Black has gone bearish on $TSLA finance.yahoo.com/news/teslas-... (Long-time $TSLA bull and - at least was - a very well respected person in the Tesla community. He was the first "major Wall Street person" to jump on the $TSLA train. Looks like he's hopped off it.)

Work on continues building up the L3 barrier as lava nears its top, by adding more material straight atop the crusted-over active flow. (photo: Stefán Jón Ingvarsson).
If this thing keeps on going for years (shield-forming eruptions), the #BlueLagoon and #Svartsengi are going to look like a crater..
-
The #BlueLagoon's emergency communication to guests seems to be... subpar.
(Silica Hotel is at the Blue Lagoon)
-
They're apparently aiming to reopen the #BlueLagoon a week from now. How? I have no bloody idea...
I mean, first off, are they scheduling the end of the #eruption? I mean, one eruption lasted 54 days. Active lava flows block the route from the north. Are they planning to come in through #Grindavik
-
This "small" #eruption is proving to be much more of a pain than the last "big" eruption. :Þ The lava has nearly reached the height of the berms around the #BlueLagoon and the #Svartsengi thermal plant. Workers will be working all night to raise them.

Further work on my #Tesla voting spreadsheet to find how extreme the votes would need to break for #Musk to get or not get the new compensation package. The numbers look a lot worse for Musk now
A breakdown.
1) Known entities, such as Leo Koguan, #ARK, #CALPERS, & the protest letter senders are in.
2) #Vanguard voted AGAINST in 2018. I can't imagine that they'd vote FOR now. Not as sure how their mutual funds will vote, or what %.

8. "What #mineral, produced by #subglacial #eruptions and spread via #aeolian distribution, is a problem for farmers in #Iceland, and why?"
#ChatGPT3 #GPT3 failed this (admittedly difficult) question (the answer is allophane, which binds phosphorus and other minerals, water, and reduces soil cohesion).

@starkmiriam #Musk ended up mortgaging everything he had to save the company that #Eberhard nearly ran into the ground. And thankfully, it worked (mainly due to an investment by #Daimler to build an electric Smart car - if it had come a week later, paychecks would have bounced).
#ElonMusk kept resisting becoming the CEO because he was busy with #SpaceX; after the company's third CEO left, he finally accepted (becoming the fourth) it in late 2008.

A #LFP #battery is a #steel can containing primarily (A) #graphite (synthetic or natural), and (B) #iron #phosphate (which is basically fertilizer). The next largest component is #electrolyte, primarily organic carbonates (a #petrochemical #solvent - on the lower toxicity end as far as solvents go). Next most common are the metal foils (#alumium and #copper). Next is the (#plastic) separator membrane.
In tiny quantities at the bottom of the list? Electrolyte additives and the #lithium itself.

@cnishina You do realize that in the #US a #car catches fire *every three minutes*, right?
Per mile driven, #EVs are an order of magnitude less likely to catch #fire. Because they're not sitting on a tank of highly flammable liquid with no #FireSuppression systems at all , plumbed up to a hot #engine block and past an #exhaust hot enough to ignite dry #grass and surrounded by friction sources.
Also, see that "tslaq of the world"? $TSLAQ is a short-seller group.

@filmcritic Also, the fact that you think that #Tesla fans aren't familiar with #Eberhard... I mean, where to even start? That's like saying, "#Apple fans don't know that there was this guy named #Wozniak...."

@[email protected] @Aznorth @stux This is based on:
* Obviously, colour (#jasper is just "any red #chalcedony", chalcedony being semiprecious #flint/#chert - that is, cryptocrystaline #quartz)
* Availability in large sizes
* #Conchoidal fracture
* Brittle
Obviously I can't do any more tests than that from here!

@[email protected] @dominicvfx Also always left out of this story: #Eberhard was independently wealthy. He had just sold off his company NuvoMedia to Gemstar for $187M. Yet he put very little of his own money into the company; it was #Musk who risked everything he owned to save it, having to clean up Eberhard's mess.
Literally, Eberhard was telling the board that the cars were going to cost a little over half what his actual numbers said they were going to cost.
-
@[email protected] @dominicvfx Tesla did not "come from the work of #Eberhard and #Tarpenning". When #Musk and Eberhard/Tarpenning joined forces, (A) Musk was already working on exactly the same project, even with the same ACP powertrain (only on a Noble chassis), and (B) Tesla was a shell company with no tech of its own and not even the legal rights to its own name. And they did not "step down"; Eberhard was fired by the board (even his own appointee) for stringing them along on a pack of lies.

@mcfellaface Oh man, I forgot all about the #Demoscene! Haven't watched a #demo since the mid/late 1990s - #FutureCrew and all of them. What people managed to fit into a couple dozen K (or even just a few K) was staggering, and simultaneously (A) inspirational and (B) giving a sense that I'll never be that good at coding ;)

CW: Elon Musk
@[email protected] @davetroy @Tnicholsmd And to be explicit, #Tesla wasn't "bought out". Tesla was a shell company. It had no tech to its name - it was all ACP's. It didn't even own the trademark to its own name. No money changed hands. And - key point - ***#Eberhard was independently wealthy***. He had recently sold his compan NuvoMedia to #Gemstar for $187M.

CW: Elon Musk
@[email protected] @davetroy @Tnicholsmd Sorry, but this is revisionist history.
Both of #Musk's' early companies were mergers between pairs of startups, but he was *absolutely* working on them on his own at the time of the merger. #Paypal Inc was the merger of Musk's X.com and #Thiel's Confinity. And when Elon and #Eberhard merged their forces, #Elon was already working on a converted #Noble with ACP's powertrain (while Eberhard was working on a #Lotus with ACP's powertrain).

@Timmy ... (#plastic) separator membrane. Beyond all this, there's a variety of minor additives, as well as the small amount of #lithium itself.
The main limiting factor in scaleup however is none of this; it's plant capacity. And in particular, film synthesis for the jelly rolls. Traditionally this is done with a wet-phase process, but this requires #VacuumOven.s the length of a football pitch for each line to extract the #solvent.
