I don't know about making you taller, stronger, and prettier, but you're making me longer, harder, and more imposing.

Holly shot! Reminds me of a recirculating linear bearing, not what they were testing and not what they're suggesting the Egyptians did but neat parallel.
I understand the electronics. I don't understand why you think this would be worth replacing all my appliances
This doesn't seem better.
But different devices need different voltages. Does every outlet in my house have to have its own connection to the central rectifier? It's a lot of re wiring.
We don't need AC in the home anymore.
I laughed and wrote out a list of things in my house using AC but I see you're talking more theoretically. Most of the things using ac in my house are only ever plugged into one circuit, so we could leave those circuits alone. I don't think USB C PD could handle a hairdryer though, and they aren't always used on the same circuits (eg sometimes bathroom, sometimes bedroom)
It's really tough to displace entrenched standards.
Lmao why would gravity waves point away from the universe being a simulation?
Sorry what I meant is miniscule gravitational forces across billions of light years.
Because of the ridiculous cost of calculating the force of gravity between every water molecule on neptune and carbon atom on exoplanet xjwhatever. Gravity waves suggest this is actually happening.
Also you put a comic strip as your source, you have less than zero credibility in anything.
What community are we in? I don't actually believe simulation theory... it's a concise explanation.
Huge assumption there lol, but I guess I see your point.
It's not an assumption, it's a conclusion based on the premises laid out in the previous sentences.
Everything seems to point towards that being the case for us, and absolutely nothing hints at a simulation
Maximum speed, minimum length, light is only a particle when we're looking at it....
Like there are other things that definitely point away from it being a simulation (eg gravity waves). But there's not nothing pointing towards simulation.
There is a ceiling though. A computer made of matter of one universe cannot simulate an entire universe at the same speed.
Right but we don't know what the real universe's limitations are, and I'm geostationary to speak too authoritatively of the capabilities of an arbitrarily advanced civilization.
I don't think simulation theory is true. Eg calculating gravitational forces between everything in the universe would presumably be extraordinarily cost intensive, but essentially irrelevant (I mean like gravitational waves, not the moon).
Why can't it be that we simply live in a real universe? That's the simplest answer, the one that requires the fewest assumptions.
The argument goes that: a sufficiently technologically advanced society would run ancestor simulations. Those simulations may also run simulations. There's no ceiling on the number of nesting simulations. It's the height of conceit to think we're the top level when there are squillions of simulated universe.
Also the fucking tween wasn't running it. She was at worst recruiting after being groomed.
But it's all made up anyway so w~
Don't buy a battery only car if you don't have a place to charge it. But that's totally irrelevant to school busses.
They wouldn't use public chargers you buffoon.
School busses are used like 4 hours per day, so that leaves 20 hours per day for charging.
99% of School busses need to drive less than 156 miles per day.
School busses drive slowly, another thing well suited to electrification.
Honestly lithium batteries are probably totally unneeded here. Something swappable? A cheaper lower performance battery could be used and charged or swapped during the 6 hours the kids are at school. Charging speed could be actively managed to help level grid load e.g charge overnight, but not during peak usage times.
