after it came out that the phone network was likely hacked by China.

You're referring to the phone network in the USA, right? It blows my mind that more people don't know about it. China (specifically, Salt Typhoon) infiltrated the USA phone network in 2022. The infiltration was only discovered in 2024, and China still has not been evicted. Apparently the eviction will not be complete until compromised Huawei network hardware is extirpated.

It just occurred to me that with the recent advancements in cargo-container-sized nuclear reactors, they would excellent fit to power aircraft due to their high energy densities. There were attempts at nuclear-powered aircraft in the past using older technology, but IIRC they irradiated crews and were primarily for bombers carrying nukes that would supposedly need to be in the air continuously for days at a time.

Downvoted for censorship.

Now it has come full circle. Checkmate, atheists.

The article says that they contain NaCrO₂. That means that, by mass, they are 21% Na, 49% Cr, and 30% O. So I'm curious: why are they called sodium batteries, and not chromium batteries?

Reminds me of the Quietus suicide kits in Children of Men.

Or better yet: Use the tool for one's own goals.

In the 1950s, Isaac Asimov predicted that eventually, nearly everything on Earth would be automated, leading to mass unemployment. He then predicted that the "excess population" would move to other star systems, which served 3 purposes: reducing unemployment on earth, providing a meaningful existence for the extrasolar colonists, and spreading humanity throughout the galaxy.

You are both right. Data centers have both data storage and processing.

Ask Claude lol

Memes aside, there's nothing more important than the people in your life. Spend time with them.
