I agree that this is great for people with injuries, I also don't think they hide the cost and while I agree they do make good products they tend to be on the high end of said good products and this one will undoubtedly be costly.
Cool but also their products are already incredibly expensive so I can't imagine what these would cost and also I feel like this kind of detracts from the purpose of hiking.
Even if it is a war crime I have zero faith that they will face any consequences.
I regularly power both my ts100 and Pinecil with a Milwaukee M18 battery and the barrel connector this is super convenient. The display is also convenient. The fact that you need the battery to set the temp seems numb and completely negates the USBC convenience because it means you can't use any old USBC power source and still change the temperature. The 100w is also pointless because the other two options already heat incredibly fast and have a higher max temperature.
Then we all grew up and found out it's actually not possible to sink in quick sand.
Yeah. Sentences like these from Donald:
She destroyed the city of San Francisco, it’s — and I own a big building there — it’s no > — I shouldn’t talk about this but that’s OK I don’t give a damn because this is what > > > I’m doing. I should say it’s the finest city in the world — sell and get the hell out of >there, right? But I can’t do that. I don’t care, you know? I lost billions of dollars, >billions of dollars. You know, somebody said, ‘What do you think you lost?’ I said, >‘Probably two, three billion. That’s OK, I don’t care.’ They say, ‘You think you’d do it >again?’ And that’s the least of it. Nobody. They always say, I don’t know if you know. >Lincoln was horribly treated. Uh, Jefferson was pretty horribly. Andrew Jackson they >say was the worst of all, that he was treated worse than any other president. I said, >‘Do that study again, because I think there’s nobody close to Trump.’ I even got shot! >And who the hell knows where that came from, right?
I thought his crime was not handing over data that he had specifically because the privacy on telegram is questionable at best? If just making a privacy focused app we're a crime we would see this more often. The trick is to make it so that you actually have nothing to hand over when authorities come knocking.
I do agree but imo the power consumption is a flaw of Bitcoin and should have been addressed upfront. There has to be a better way.
Do you think there isn't a blood cost for electricity?
The new currency that's backed by the old currency and uses a shit ton more electricity. What a time to be alive.
Ive worked in 3rd world and I'm shocked that you think these people give a shit about Bitcoin or that it can do anything for them. You can sing its praises all you want and go on and on about how it's just me repeating what I've been told. It's a joke.
But crypto also suffers from crashes and being devalued and if you're buying Bitcoin with your hard earned dollar that is worth less and less then you are ultimately buying less and less Bitcoin. The fact that Bitcoin still needs all of the other currency to function as a middle man makes it vulnerable to the same risks. Maybe it helps people in niche situations but I'm sure we'll all be thinking it's worth it when those same struggling places are the hardest hit by climate change. At least they'll have a bunch of digital currency propped up by fiat currency.
That's great and all but doesn't sound like a valid excuse for the excessive amount of energy it consumes. It's also hard for me to imagine 3rd world places that somehow flourish because of a currency that needs the Internet to exist.
I'm fine doing away with physical dollars printed on paper and coins but crypto seems to solve none of the problems that we have with a fiat currency but instead continues to consume unnecessary amounts of energy while being driven by rich investors that would love nothing more than to spend and earn money in an untraceable way.
I hope this is sarcasm.
Unfortunately crypto is still somehow a thing. There is a couple year old bitcoin mining facility in my small town that brags about consuming 400MW of power to operate and they are solely owned by a Chinese company.
The argument that our bodies are inefficient meat bags doesn't make sense. AI isn't replacing the inefficient meat bag unless I'm unaware of an AI killing people off and so far I've yet to see AI make any meaningful dent in overall emissions or research. A chatgpt query can use 10x more power than a regular Google search and there is no chance the result is 10x more useful. AI feels more like it's adding to the enshittification of the internet and because of its energy use the enshittification of our planet. IMO if these companies can't afford to build renewables to support their use then they can fuck off.
