- Comment on Why don't we just gather up all the ocean's trash and all the nonrecyclables, put them in a rocket, and launch it into the sun? 1 month ago:
What you also forgot to mention is just how much trash we generate… that would be a massive limiting factor as well. It’s hard enough to get a few tons of stuff on a rocket going to space. I couldn’t get an exact figure on a quick google search but humanity generates somewhere on the order of tens of thousands of metric tons of trash per day

- Comment on Goodwill is out of control 2 months ago:
My friend frequents goodwill and one time, he came home super excited to show me the Husky mini socket set he bought. He excitedly told me “oh it was only $35!”, assuming he had gotten a great deal… that same socket set was also $35 brand new at Home Depot. It’s almost predatory because people just assume goodwill has better prices. That said… my friend should’ve been smart enough to double check that before buying it, lol

That group of 34 people moving to Russia have been referred to by some as the Russia 34, or R34 for short.

My grandfather lives in the south, and for a number of years after Tesla became a big name, he genuinely thought it was “Tesler” because that’s just how everyone he knew was pronouncing it

Tbh I’m surprised you know what a glockenspiel is but not a xylophone, lol (For the record… it’s pretty much just a bigger glockenspiel, yeah)

We used these in my elementary, middle, and high schools, and I went to HS in the mid 2010’s! And we did still do drills with them.

- Comment on Why don't electric car manufacurers put solar panels on the car roofs? 6 months ago:
Yeah, it’s certainly a good thing it doesn’t hail in the outback lmao
- Comment on Why don't electric car manufacurers put solar panels on the car roofs? 6 months ago:
Exactly. And what’s worth remembering is that solar cars tend to be something like 2X longer then normal cars, and cover the entire surface except for windshield with panels. No rear windshield, either.
- Comment on Why don't electric car manufacurers put solar panels on the car roofs? 6 months ago:
You’re absolutely right - still absurdly shaped pancakes and they can’t reach highway speeds when powered on solar power alone. They do reach road speeds nowadays but they’re allowed to charge during and after race time (regulations are pretty confusing). I was on a solar car team a few years back.
- Comment on Why don't electric car manufacurers put solar panels on the car roofs? 6 months ago:
Doesn’t provide enough power for the cost of the cells, plus having to clean and upkeep them. And the more material you cover them with (to protect them; solar cells are INCREDIBLY fragile), the less efficient they are. I was on a solar car team in college and the cells are so fragile that to clean them, we had to use new microfiber cloths every time. Any dust would scratch and ruin them (which made it quite tough when I drove across the outback in the thing). We kept our cells completely uncovered because we needed maximum efficiency - but even with a super light carbon fiber solar car that’s got very minimal tire contact patches, specialized tires from Bridgestone, and a very aerodynamic shape (plus no amenities like A/C), I think our car could sustain something like 10-15 km/h on a perfectly sunny day in the middle of the outback. It just doesn’t add enough on a huge, heavy EV
