Uh... no. Current gen under heavy use, when they exhaust the replacement blocks, fail dead.
It's really quite nasty in industrial high performance appliances.
First gen went read only unexpectedly... "locked". I still see this in SD and micro SD. The Raspberry Pi community is just now coming to grips with the issue.
Was made more or less the same way we make the lime in cement today... They heated sea shells (calcium carbonate). We heat lime stone (calcium carbonate). Both processes release CO2 (the carbonate). They mixed their cement, in some cases, with a very particular type of volcanic material to make a very strong form of cement that sets under water and continues to harden. We have something similar today, now that the chemistry of that volcanic material is understood.
Cement, combined with "aggregate" (stone, sand etc) is called concrete.
Renewable be used in the metallic sodium manufacturing?
None of this is about energy production... Only storage. Batteries aren't production either. Nukes, wind and solar are production. Technically the sun is nuclear too and wind is derived from the effects of solar heating, but....
That was kind of the point on my question... And you're probably right. "Let's conduct a study" IS probably a way to sandbag the proposal. I only say probably because I hate to pretend I can read minds.
By asking who the audience for the study results are and what the data set is to be, there is an opportunity for the people pushing forward to see that for themselves... If they want to.
My personal opinion, and it's JUST opinion, is that they so want to believe in the rightness of the proposal and "if we can just show you the data, you'll see how wrong you are..." (and I am NOT saying it isn't a right idea), they're willing to buy into the sandbag to prove themselves right. In some ways, it reminds me of the people you see on the corner with Watchtower and Awake.
I agree it's psychological... But what is the principal/impediment? It's not on the part of recipients, but somewhere else. Who has to be convinced of what?
I don't know ANYONE who will turn down free money.
Until that nut get's cracked, this is gonna get cut short every time.
It happens in urban areas too. Like say, Oakland. In the areas where people tend to "take to the streets", and willfully attract hooligans to associate with them ( talking to you OCCUPY ), "real" stores won't set up shop... As someone pointed out, it's too expensive. If you want some fun, go to a Safeway at 10pm in Berkeley... And THAT is a good area! Then all that is left is the mom and pop "corner store"... A liquor and nicotine emporium. Yeah, THAT"S really great for the community. Dollar stores are an improvement, believe me.
The people writing this don't want improvement. They want perfect and they want it right f**king now!!! But don't want to actually DO anything. They want it done for them. Actually, generally speaking, they aren't even a part of the communities they write about. These writers simply want to tell everyone else what to do.
Kind of like those "hall monitor" kids we knew in elementary and middle school.
Walmart doesn't provide union jobs either. They have classes for their employees to teach them how to get government services. I can't speak about Krogers. Outfits like ILSR, I call hand wringing scolds. I have YET to see even a proposed solution from anything like them... Not even clear thinking (at least not in writing). Just emotional screaming that there is injustice and everyone is a fault and EVILLLLL!!!
You mean the "good" stores who chose not to go there because they can't be sustained in that market particular market... Are being "driven" out by a conglomerate that does a better job serving the neighborhood than the existing "corner stores" (basically liquor stores)? And you're saying nothing is better than being gouged by the liquor store?
What is your solution? Not just finger wagging and scolding. Solution. Tell ya what... How about we take your paycheck and use it to build the kind of store you think is needed.
Unless one has had to deal with prices at what are sometimes called "corner stores", Dollar Stores DO look more expensive... But they aren't competition for Krogers, Walmart or Whole Foods.
They compete with those corner stores with REALLY prices and shelves loaded with "sugar", booze and nicotine.
Is quality at the Dollar Store the same as the "high priced" spread? Not really, but it's a whole lot better than either nothing or the price gouging of the corner store.
It goes like this: A flat statement about some social ill is made; Followed by conflation of issues to "support" whatever the opening statement is.
Should you happen to question the author on exactly what was meant and how they arrived to the conclusions, you'll be met with a level of hostility worthy of... Well THEY tend to end up in courts with criminal charges.
It's s though the "left" has decided FOX News tactics are correct. It's REALLY troubling.
When you're being prepared for a job/work of some kind, it's a trade school.
When you're educated, you learn to learn and to prepare your self.
I institutions of higher learning are functioning as trade schools and you can't get a job when you get finished, it should be counted as fraud and litigated.
A phone, smart or other wise is an individually addressable network terminal. It's not a fashion accessory.
Once everyone has one, other than radical changes in technology (no, I don't mean "disruptive" garbage) or replacing broken equipment, at the prices as they are now, people have no reason to buy.
I've carried an S5 for about 5 years now. I got it to switch from Sprint to GSM and real LTE. It serves me well and when the 5G network deploys, I'll replace it. Until then, there is no real reason for me to trade "up".
Slashdot Mirror
To mIllenials...
And they're gonna twitter at us about it.
Keep in mind, this is the crowd that more of less invented ghosting.
True... If the utility is run. And when 100 percent of the spare storage cells are used, the next to fail means fail dead.
I speak of I have seen. Not marketing theory or wishful thinking.

Spinning HD are on the way out... If yu don't mind that SSDs WILL fail catastrophically in 3 to 5 years of heavy use.
Some people like built in failure. Go figure

The article, in this regard, is dumb.
Very insightful! This is why the Aussies are lining up H2 generation/export.
You're not in the US are you?
a.) Batteries are immobile
b.) batteries are HEAVY
and finally referencing your comment about waste,
c.) moving energy via "the/a grid" is lossey.
It's not the sodium that is important, it's the hydrogen produced and the CO2 capture that is important.
What IS this fetish about batteries!
Because there is often too much renewable generated to be consumed at the time.
As I said... STORAGE.
How about...

That used "peer instructors"
I love the scam

Yeah, maybe, but this is the same response I see from those "professional" writers... And they STILL don't answer civil questions.
Odd how it works that the best that can be done is name calling.
sigh

no wonder trump was elected.
I got my figure from the California DMV stats, but who knows...
Half a million in eight years, 62500 cars a year... In a state that has 28 million registered vehicles. Less than one quarter of one percent.
It all puts me in mind of very primitive peoples... One, Two... Many!
Numbers count (I know, bad pun). Just because the number SEEMS large to the average mind, doesn't mean it really is in the larger scheme of things.
Everyone stand on ocean beach and spit. That will raise sea level!... In a million years.
Sure... a 35ASR
Or a 33ASR

Yea, I was trying to avoid the all too sensitive reference. I'm tired of getting yelled at this week.
