Looks like a #chinaeastern #boeing #aircraft lost #power mid- #flight and went into a #nosedive https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/chin.. My guess is we'll never learn of an #official #reason - but I wouldn't be #surprised if it's from poor #maintenance and #corruption . As we've seen with #russia 's #military , corruption directly #correlates with lives lost as #critical #equipment #fails .
Damn, tonnes of #ssd #storage loses #data on random #power #interruption - despite claims otherwise! https://twitter.com/xenadu02/status/1495.. I think this makes a really good case for the #pineflash #project (which is currently stagnated).
Awesome! #powertools are now using #usb #typec #connectors for #charging ! https://www.xda-developers.com/usb-type-.. That is surely a good sign for how #robust this #connector is and the #power #delivery possible!
Very interesting, #china 's #ccp are proposing that they are the new world #power to uphold #global #justice https://www.lotuseaters.com/china-promis.. Bare in mind there is an active #boycott of the #chinese #winter #olympics right now due to the ongoing #genocide in their own borders... I guess as the saying goes: " #charity starts at home"...
Nice #discussion about running a #laptop #server from #solar #power https://medium.com/@timothy_downs/how-ma..
The new #raspberrypi #zero is pretty good on #power apparently: https://hackaday.com/2021/11/01/the-pi-z.. The joke is, our #humanoid #robot ran on less! To think that such a small board could now be used to drive our robot is actually insane.
Looks like the #uk are going to be putting #nuclear #power first for #zero #emissions https://www.ft.com/content/e6426194-21e6.. As a #hackernews #comment points out, after #brexit nobody is left in the #eu to push back against #germany and their internal hatred of #nuclear #power https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=288..
#food #shortages , #driver #shortages , #failed #crops , #food #processing #plants without #power , #greenhouses #blackout , #inflation , #shipping #shortages , rising #fertilizer #prices , #carbondioxide #shortage , #meat #shortage - *it just doesn't stop:* https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/kr.. Prepare for a *very* shit #christmas ...
Well, this is ridiculously cool: https://eandt.theiet.org/content/article.. #airbus have successfully #flown a #plane via #solar #power for *weeks* without #landing ! #airbus are even suggesting #zephyr could #fly for #months at a time! Insanity!
#india now hit with #power #blackouts as the #energy #crisis continues to spread, with a massive #coal #shortage https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/india-f.. This is not going to get better any time soon. Some #industries cannot even take a one day break from #electricity without having some multi-month #delay in #production capability (think #chip #shortage ).
#gretathunberg *should* be in #school https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/well-d.. We desperately need more #nuclear #power to bridge the #energy #gap whilst we figure out how to go #renewable ...

" #weird " I thought, so I open the phone up, pull out the #battery and the #label is loose. Turns out my #phone was going #thermonuclear and the battery was #selling ... Luckily for me, it's almost impossible to get a new #original battery: https://wileyfox.com/products/original-w..Time for a quick #nap - I only got a few hours #sleep before due to a #submission #deadline ... There's only so much you can burn the candle!
Big ouch, the #chip #shortage is getting much worse: https://hackaday.com/2021/09/29/ic-short.. I would suggest that this person could verify the #design without the need for the #power #controller #chip - an #oldschool #resistor #ladder from a #dc source *will* give you the required #voltages at the worst #energy #efficiency !
More on #china 's #energy problem: https://www.reuters.com/world/china/chin.. Apparently #power #generators are shutting down because of the 10% maximum #charge increase, meaning it is no longer #profitable to #generate ... So it looks like this is an entirely #ccp generated problem.
Here's the thing, if #china 's #ccp is shutting down #manufacturing and the #production of goods based on #energy #power #generation issues - then how can they meet their #growth expectations? https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/goldma.. Add to that a #food #shortage , a failing #property #market , increased #nationalism , a push for #war with #taiwan - it's falling apart.
The #timing is weird, but the #uk desperately needs #nuclear #power and I'm for one glad it's not a #chinese #design https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEK1_aAb.. #boris does need to stand up to #biden though, how the hell is he being pushed around by a frail old #dementia ridden man?
