Electric cars being charged by fossil fuels still have major advantages. Those who make generators are incentivized to get as many joules of energy per gallon of fuel. Diesel generators can have some efficiency adaptations that vehicle engines wont often have, such as being designed to run at a fixed speed. Your average car owner wont care about efficiency as much as getting from point A to point B, so the already low efficiency of combustion engines is probably lower on average than what could be theoretically achievable just due to people not maintaining their vehicles. Electric vehicles do not idle, and starting an electric vehicle does not cost extra power. Additionally, stop and go traffic leads to far less loss of energy in cities for anyone driving an electric vehicle.

While I would prefer renewable power for electric vehicles, electric cars can still use fossil fuel power more efficiently than internal combustion engines can.

I’d still prefer electric trains however.

What do you think of an acetone vapor bath?

I haven’t been able to play it yet, but I did see some reviews, so take what I’m saying with a grain of salt.

If you’re familiar with Bethesda games then starfield will feel familiar in some ways. The gunplay is close to fallout 4’s, where some enemies health scales with difficulty. There are a lot of guns you can hoard. However there have been major improvements which seem to address shortcomings of other Bethesda games.

In the cities, they’ve managed to cram more NPCs in to give life to hub areas. The lockpicking minigames and hacking have been replaced with digipicking, which is an actual puzzle and requires some thinking to solve. You can fast travel from anywhere, you no longer have to be outside. Render distance is impressive in some areas. There’s a new persuasion system. NPCs have (somewhat stiff) facial animations. You can highlight loot with a scanner, and the same scanner can act as a guide to the objective.

The real strength of the game is just how much effort has been put into it. You really can find how parts of this game look like a real labor of love. Some voice actors are big names. There’s a lot of content to constantly side track you. There are 4 factions that I know of, and each has their perks once you work with them enough. Finally, there is a ton of customization. Weapons, suits, your ship, and late game outposts you can make. The game is very pretty.

Are there bugs? Yes. They aren’t as bad as previous titles however. I haven’t heard of the game crashing. Performance seems to be pretty alright as well.

Great comment! I think you covered the negatives very well.

In the telegram app, webp is counted as a ‘sticker’, which will cause it to be rendered at a fixed scale, and you will be unable to zoom in on it. Stickers in telegram are used as reaction images that can be put into their own folders.

So if I share a webp image in telegram, you pretty much wont be able to read or see what’s going on due to the fixed scale.

It was really good for artists and entertainers (streamers included) to gain a following

Technology is moving so fast not even the common person can be aware of the threat. Plus, we have the response to it is to not believe because its uncomfortable. By the time people understand they will deem it too late to do anything about it.
