I thought “dark energy” was the label for the cause of the universe’s accelerating expansion.
I love his expression in the third panel:
It’s just a blank stare of “wait, what?”
unlike SpaceX , they haven’t blown up 2 entire rockets to do it, which saves my tax dollars
Haven’t SpaceX done all of those tests on their own dime? I’m pretty sure all of their government contracts are fixed-price, not cost-plus.
Ah, makes sense! Glad to hear that battery tech is approaching the level where short-haul aviation is viable.
I’m curious why long-haul aviation is easier than short-haul aviation according to this chart. Why would that be the case?
There is no permanent “dark side” of the moon, but the “far side” of the moon (always faces away from Earth) is precisely the location proposed in the article.
I think pumped hydro is reasonably efficient, but requires specific terrain in order to be practical to build. Batteries are getting cheaper, and since grid storage doesn’t have the stringent weight and volume requirements that vehicles do, a wider range of chemistries (not just lithium) can be used.
No worries, thanks for all your suggestions! Hopefully this info might help @darklightxi@lemmy.world at some point in the future…
Thanks, that’s awesome!
I assume you turned it off and then turned it back on.
Yup, done.
then open the app’s witcher and then tap the thunder
There was a huge noise and I turned into a newt, but I got better.
in the system settings there should be something for battery management. It will say that it is optimized for battery usage and you want to make it not optimized.
Found it:
It was set to “optimized”, so I’ve switched it to “unrestricted”. It’s been about a day, and I am yet to receive a single Thunder notification.

That’s us. That’s home.
it does only check every, I want to say 15 minutes
Good to keep in mind, but that wouldn’t explain why I haven’t received any notifications in the past few weeks.
just to make sure it was the thunder settings you went into right, settings and then general and then inbox notifications?
Yup, tapped the gear -> General -> Scroll down to Notifications -> Enable Inbox Notifications.
I tried sending the test notifications, and they worked fine. No other notifications though.
Go into the thunder settings and disable notifications and then turn them back on again.
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it and it doesn’t seem to have helped. I’m also only using a single account on Thunder.
Huh, that’s interesting. Any significant differences between them, i.e. operating system, or such?
Nope, his name is Alec Watson!
He’s on the fediverse as well: https://mas.to/@TechConnectify/with_replies
Who is Rob?
It does seem a bit strange. Wouldn’t solar + batteries be quicker, cheaper, and more scaleable at this point?
Thanks for sharing, that was great!

Still encouraging that people are considering this, though.
