I use firefox. It handles RAM pretty well and with some about:config it's best.
I have in this tab group... 29 tabs open. but I have my main tab group of 661 open tabs. 2nd is shopping with 187 tabs. ..ungrouped... 101 tabs. i'd guess I have 500 more tabs...

that is on my tower. the laptop probably as a few 100.

they are kind of like bookmarks but not permanent. I also have them in trees; another thing bookmarks can not do. some stay for 10 years... others go when that topic is completely done with. This tab is a project with 29 and I'm taking a moment to waste time here.

I doubt I have ... ok. about 600 bookmarks... 2002 maybe is the oldest one. need to trash a bunch of those...should have some older ones since i imported them from netscape... but i suppose i started fresh in 2002? don't use bookmarks that often. at least never directly.

They are only stopping EVs in the USA which are under attack. They can make more money selling crap ICE cars Americans want while trying to survive the global EV market. Write it down as a loss... but actually make more money. It's not like they are stopping EV completely.

They know better when they say something that idiotic it's likely another message is being sent. Or some translator is drunk. While if the USA says something idiotic we all just assume it is within character.

1) Windows laptops probably all get SUBSIDIES which is not a new thing either. If you buy it without windows (if even possible) the price goes up.

2) Microsoft sells out your privacy from the beginning.

3) Microsoft pushes toxic BS on everybody and they just take more and more of it. They are losing people these days in pushing the limits.

4) Performance needs are low for most people. MacOS handles high memory pressure surprisingly well these days. I'm not following 400-600 laptops, but last time I ran into a cheap PC laptop, it didn't have upgradable RAM.

Space X Rays sounds like a bond movie to me... but I think a data center would create a lot of happy IT people... although robots are better than humans already so it's unlikely any humans would ever go up there sadly.

What about other frequencies? I've always wondered... radio works so well, why are they not considering stuff that works when thinking of these things? It sounds cartoonish, but why explore these ideas while picking LIGHT or microwaves?

Light is easily seen as a problem on cloudy days and microwaves get messed up in the rain.

Why don't these projects get into Xray lasers or radio wave lasers? stuff that passes thru the atmosphere best? sure, xrays sound bad; but any serious tech is always usable as a weapon of some sort. It's not like war crimes are completely ignored and we are not xraying in the battlefield, which could have been weaponized for a century. At least if they try that stuff we may get progress in other radio devices. Some next-gen radio wave laser probably has some uses!

The only cost effective thing I can see is space factories where the transport costs are worth it. If you could say, make gold cheap enough in space to transport it... or whatever expensive chemical.

Data Centers make a lot of sense because their products and materials are radio waves passing data. Plus the IT person on-site means we have a self-funded space station where IT people get a realistic chance to go to space! (right now you have to be a wealthy fraudster or friend of one) We get hardened electronics...although they get out of date so fast the data center is probably not cost effective without cheaper transport! expensive chemistry is probably all that would work... or quantum computing?

As long as there are billionaires funding it, they can throw away their stolen money...at least some engineers and scientists will be employed. Sadly, most the money will be wasted on MBAs trying to get rich themselves... but the theft cycle in this case is creating some STEM jobs.

If this works; obviously space lasers make way more sense... the energy losses are sizable and heat up the atmosphere which retains too much heat. Any serious usage would likely do more harm than just having more natural gas plants??

Space is not cheap. yet. maybe it's cheap enough? The smart money is on space solar power producing something that is costly to make or store energy and dropping that down to earth. This is where a space elevator if even possible could make it possible to send up some materials, process in space cheaply and send back down. To say nothing of the likely hood the space elevator itself wouldn't generate a lot of static electricity.

Thank you. good to know. why anon? Still, we need to follow those other nations and go beyond.

If Trump could stop his enemies from being able to spend their money? He hasn't figured out he could do that already... outside of international sanctions he already places on people he doesn't like just doing their jobs. (ICC judges)

FYI: in the USA, it's the law that currency has to be acceptable payment (since the great depression.) This law is often ignored these days and it doesn't specify physical money allowing legalese to render it almost pointless.

The state dept under Hillary blocked wikileaks without any laws; simply asking credit cards to block it, as a favor. I bet more of the swiss know of such things than Americans... who have been proven their stupidity. Hey, I'm one but I'm in the minority; one of the smart Americans. Many of us still have shame and it should be used heavily; we're not smart enough for facts and reason... again, this is proven.

AI seems to do well at generating exceptional CLICK BAIT for many years now...

The problem seemed to go away when I replaced the battery with a top of the line battery; it was around 12 years old...

In that case just hook it up to the Trump admin and solve the energy crisis. 1st time they'll have done something useful.

A motorcyle or autocycle is not cheap OR safe. This is way safer than a motor bike 2-3 wheel or the autocycles I've seen. Also, those don't protect against weather.

This is $40k and it jumped up with tariffs and the goverment $ tax credit was killed. I remember it jumping about 7k in price after the tariff supply chain mess which continues.

It has a Tesla DC fast charger on it. You can charge it faster than other EVs; others have a much larger battery they need to charge while this only needs to get to like 44kwh to fill up. I forgot the fast charge rate which wasn't as high as some newer SUV but again, those waste tons of energy and have a much larger battery as a result.

It's not a golf cart. It ended up with a stock SUV electric motor with a Porsche EV like 2 gear transmission. The thing has no weight and 260HP electric power they have to limit because it's dangerous. The power to weight ratio is crazy and it lacks the tires and weight to even utilize that overkill power. Later models will choose a better matched motor, but this is about cost and supply. The 2 gear transmission is a NEW thing because there is still an ideal RPM for the motors which the luxury EV are addressing. Interestingly, the cost of this transmission is about $150. Me, I'd rather not have any gears but that is impossible until somebody makes an affordable motor that runs at the RPM needed. They ditched the French motor which was perfect but not mass produced and in France. I think that was 160HP per wheel (it was in hub) and could force turn the car without steering... I imagine getting the software reliable would take years because that would be dangerous; so they may have skipped on it for that reason too.

Everything they've been doing has been to get selling cars. They have many ideas that are being put on hold. They don't have a heat pump. no room. because the SUV motor went there. also harder to source etc. The 3rd wheel motor went away too... they may do that 1st with a small custom wheel motor that is too small; for highway speed maintenance. It may prove better than the transmission; but I think the motor cost more than a $150 transmission...

12V battery is cheaper than electronic power conversion is what my understanding of it is. many cars did this. The 12V charger is small and cheap while car accessories can draw a huge amount of watts to light a cigarette; so put in a lead acid battery that can easily and cheaply handle the needs and then put in a 1watt slow charge controller.
