Good lord that is a horrendous website on mobile.

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

for the first 2 seconds: that's no bad... then all the pop ups came on

[-] agent_flounder@lemmy.one 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thank you Firefox and pi-hole... (I'm like "what popups? What ads?)

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

Firefox+ublock seemed to take care of it for me. I had to refresh the page before I could scroll though

[-] agent_flounder@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

That reminds me... I may have turned off ublock a bit ago. Oops.

Had just 4 X-Buttons… could be worse. 🥸

[-] Bonehead@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

One of those X's was actually a Twitter logo. Fucking thing gets me all the time...

I remember when at my 2-4 grade school my teachers talked about "x-ing" out of programs and applications on a computer instead of closing. Something like this would be a surprise.

If you disable javascript in ublock it is actually readable

[-] PeachMan@lemmy.one 11 points 1 year ago

LOL I have Ublock Origin so I don't see the pop-ups but the website just freezes after 3 seconds of scrolling, and I have to leave. They've really ruined their site. 😆

[-] ndr@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I have custom DNS filtering on my iPhone and the website looks perfectly fine. No ads or anything.

[-] PeachMan@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

That doesn't mean the website isn't garbage. It's good to call out trash sites like this so that people will stop going there.

[-] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I just have Wipr (which is not a particularly good adblocker, it fails utterly at handling anti-adblocker sites), and it looks just fine on my phone too.

"Think again, Jimmy. You see the firing pin in your gun was made out of, yep, zinc."

[-] theDodosConundrum@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

"Come back, zinc! Come back!"

I wonder if it can be cheaper and better at scale than iron-air batteries. Those seem inexpensive to make, and can carry a large enough capacity if you put a whole lot of them in parallel with each other, and have a long lifetime. They're just really heavy for their amount of energy density and fairly low current per cell, but that shouldn't be a problem when building enough to be grid-scale.

[-] Zeth0s@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

At that point one can use Na/O2... Much higher energy released by redox reaction, much lighter

[-] Gto@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Looks promising, but not soon, I think.

[-] Chickenstalker@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

No. Move to bio-based supercapacitors that uses biopolymers.

[-] Edgelord_Of_Tomorrow@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago

No, move to naquadah reactors that use goa'uld metamaterials

[-] pewgar_seemsimandroid 2 points 1 year ago

electric car problem solved?

[-] NotMyOldRedditName@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago

Energy density on these are woefully inadequate for cars, but that doesn't matter for stationary storage which is what this is for.

[-] painfulasterisk@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I'm more interested in how they will troubleshoot and perform preventative maintenance to the battery, since halides are quite toxic.

[-] supercriticalcheese@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

First they need to see if they work and can be produced economically
