Most operating mines of rare earth elements are located on China just because nobody else wants to operate mines of rare earth elements. Their distribution is quite wide, and a big number of countries could mine them.
Coal, nuclear, natural gas, and solar thermal could live without rare earths. They'd be slightly more expensive. Wind would be a lot more expensive.
Utilities also won't want that new battery because it will be way more expensive than any molten salt design, and they can deal quite well with all limitations of molten salt batteries (like size, weight, and temperature).
Yeah, and when you are at a level of detail that you starts to count your charge carriers, the process you are used to call "conduction" starts to be called "diffusion". And saying that "diffusion is easy" is equivalent to say that "it is a good conductor". Anyway, that is a pretty rare property on things that absorb ions.
How long it holds charge, tough, is more associated to a property called "selectivity". And the article didn't mention it. It probably even couldn't because the ions/molecules being selected aren't known yet.
The need much less rare earth elements. That is because they can use heavier magnets with little problem. Wind can't because the turbine's speed changes all the time, and because it is up there, and you'll need more steel to keep it there the heavier the magnet is.
But I'm yet to be convinced that the supply of rare earth elements is a problem.
That is actualy how you count the time real mouses need to solve a maze. Worse yet, for real mouses you may grant several learning tries before you measure its time. Of course, that is for seeing how they memorize things, and the entire idea isn't quite valid for computers.
It would be better to use a frequency that is much highter than 60Hz. Things near 60Hz (or 50Hz, what is near enough) count as noise, while waves on several GHz won't even be detected by any machine not built explicitly to detect it.
That is also what the GP doesn't understand. IP over power lines is only a problem because current propositions design it to run over public lines. If it is restricted to your house (or from your house to a nerby collecting central), it doesn't need to jump over transformers so it can be very different from the power wave.
You can. If you rooted the machine, you have all the data that this daemon has. You can calculate anything it does, including enough hashs to falsify the logs.
Where will the journal be located? Will tail on it give me any usefull information (or I'll have to read thousands of lines until finding the log of the application I want)? How will it keep indices without uneeded overhead? (Let's get real, log files are rarely read. Why optimize for reading?) When they change the format of the journal, will I have to update all my log parsers?
"They found a way to do so, using Earth itself as a particle filter. "You can basically look in certain directions from which only electrons or only positrons will get through the Earth's magnetic field," Vandenbroucke says. "
So, altough their model says the interesting events happened farther away, the anti-matter that they are detecting is quite here.
That anti-matter was detected here, on Earth's magnetosphere. If it comes from some anti-matter cluster, it would be newby and we'd be able to see it annihilating with the nearby matter, what means, with us. Or better, we'd probably not be able to see anything anymore.
They are detecting those events on the Earth magnetic field, not some distant point of the Universe. So, I guess no, if it was an ati-matter galaxy, we'd have detected it already.
The printer uses bitmap anyway, why not standardize the bitmap interface so the OS could offer a default driver (the GP idea)? If you want a better driver, you can stll write one, and your printer will still be as cheap as it gets. Better yet, you can buy a driver from Adobe (as people automaticaly equate Adobe to print quality, that being true or not) that would work on with any printer.
If it comes bundled with the OS, the size of the driver is much less relevant.
You surely leak light by the same mechanisms you leak electrons (tunneling), it is just that with light we are used to it, but still don't have a useful workaround. Optical elements also disperse light in a way that is quite similar to a conductor dispersing elecrons, and they also absorb the light (what have no equivalent for electrons).
The biggest advantage of an optical device is that it can act on several signals at once, in a SIMD way.
"The supreme court said it was fine and dandy for FDR to steal all the gold in the country and imprison innocent people for their race, but that didn't make it legal. It only meant that the government would pretend it was legal."
And how does it matter that you think it is illegal? How does it matter that your constitution is written in English? (Mine is in Portugueese, no difference.)
The photons were probably simplified out of the explanation. If the article would report everything, it would be talking about momentum, and virtual particles too. They probably annihilate into a photon, that produces a pair of electron/positron, and that pair is separated by Earth's magnetic field.
Also, they probably didn't detect the positrons, but some photon generated by its annihilation.

Seems an obvious candidade for weaponization. How log will it take?

Thanks. Somebody mod parent up.

To be fair, you want to restrict the amount of power on anything that shines that near to your eyes.
And, RF being present or not you'll need to take heat dissipation into account.

Of course one can meter it. But some kinds of metering devices can't be used on some kinds of wire arrangement. (And some can be used on all of them.)
Do you realise the utility companies can't broadcast a 2.4GHz signal, don't you?
What a great application for IP over power lines!
I still don't understand what they want wireless to. Unless they wan't my freezer to be controlled by my neighbor.
You can. If you rooted the machine, you have all the data that this daemon has. You can calculate anything it does, including enough hashs to falsify the logs.

Hum, no, you are also a bit removed from it. You should run a SURPLUS during good times, to pay for the bad times' debt. Not a balanced budget.
But I understand that US media is focused on balanced budgets like it was the more one can possible hope to do. Surplus is unthinkable.
And how does it matter that you think it is illegal? How does it matter that your constitution is written in English? (Mine is in Portugueese, no difference.)
So... Are there any theories on how to create a dark matter powered electricity generator?
