Overly dramatic I’d say. I would have liked less movement of the drone to be able to better judge the movement of the rocket.

I absolutely loved that game.

I’d rather force safety requirements on all cars. Like limiting blind spots at the front and everywhere else, limiting speeds of vehicles above certain weights, increasing license requirements for vehicles that have higher safety impact etc.

Hydrogen has its place, and we need plenty of it in places where we don’t have viable alternatives. Road transport is pretty far down that list though.

And don’t forget that the plants are really expensive. Having them produce very little or even no power for half the time doesn’t help that at all.

Thermal storage needs to be quite large though, at least with the stone/brick like mass they used back then. And you need to isolate it, otherwise you have no control over the release of that stored heat. I wonder if new materials, maybe something that undergoes phase change in that temperature range, could be a lot more space efficient.

I don’t know how remote your mountains are, here there would likely be a charge point less than 50km away but I don’t know where you drive. I give you that.

Your second point though, you might want to reconsider your driving habits. Random google result for breaks when driving: “If driving long distances, you should stop for at least 15 minutes every two hours. Stop often to rest for at least 45 minutes every 4.5 hours of driving to avoid getting tired and stay alert. Plan to stop for a break every 100 miles on your long road trip so that you can relax. Try to only drive for 9 hours a day.”

How so, I’m curious? Do you drive into no mans land hundreds of miles away from civilization or are you a robot that never needs to take a break?

At least it doesn’t look like chocolate stuff, always great to get those turning white because they baked in mid summer heat.

My PC is above minimum specs and BG3 ran really poorly even on low. Maybe they got a similar issue with the s.

I tried playing it on PC today, but it ran really poorly even on low, so I refunded it and will be waiting for the Xbox version as well.

I tried to play Baldurs Gate 3 but for some reason, it runs really poorly on my system so I refunded it. On the plus side, a friend of mine has caught up in Diablo 4 so we played some multiplayer which was great fun.

And I played some Timberborn, which seems fun at least for a while. Probably not a long term game for me though.

I’d agree with you if the game wasn’t paraded around as the perfect example for not having additional purchases.

Maybe someone should introduce her to a spoon.

You don’t need power storage for months, if you combine different renewable sources and have power lines connecting different areas. Wind and solar complement each other usually.

You need to be able to bridge a few weeks though, because there will be gaps, but you don’t need to store solar power for half a year to make it. It is still a big issue, but no need to exaggerate.

As much as I’d like to agree, those projects have very different goals and constraints.

I’d guess even if some other man made satellite is perfectly in line, those wouldn’t have even close to the necessary transmission power to reach voyager.

Usually there is a compromise somewhere though. If they could just add all the features without any downsides, they surely would (and demand a premium for it). Granted, sometimes it is just cheaper to get rid of it (and thus make more profit), but sometimes its just a decision to cater to a minority or provide a benefit for the majority of users.
