For older people falls are very serious.

Yep. My city has a central heat system. Among other things, cooling for the ice rink is used to heat the swimming hall and sidewalks downtown.

A washing machine is about 39" according to google. Nvidias DGX H100 systems use 11kw and are 14" tall. That is definitely in the ballpark of the pool heaters I find on google for pools of size 40 - 120m3.

Rack power density has been balooning the last few years. Typical power consumption was ~5kw per 42u rack for like a decade. Now we are nearing 20kw average. Compute oriented systems for AI workloads and whatnot pack 60kw+ per rack. A lot of older datacenters have to run half full racks because their central cooling system can't deal with the heat of full ones anymore.

What a scam.

Wait what? That makes no sense! If anything, they shouldn't count for either floor!

Both are owners. They can do with it as they please.

In my country you are only allowed to keep things made after 1537. Anything before that belongs to the state.

No, like licenses, A100 and H100 cards. H100 is 33k pre tax, each.

They sell them in pre built machines with 8x H100, 8Tbps bidirectional networking, 112 cores, 30TB of nvme storage and 2TB memory. That is 640gb VRAM per machine.

Oh, and they are linked together. They sell hundreds of these machines at a time.

Yep. And you might argue that 70 makes it the same skew, but you could also argue that they just shifted their lineup a step upwards with 70 series replacing 80 series.

They aren't in Canada.

Basically, the part of you expenses that would double if you sold twice as many.

Everything degrades from use. Lithium batteries degrade faster at low voltage.

It's not nearly as bad as it was with lead batteries.

Discharging to empty is far worse than charging to full. Most phones are also smart about nighttime charging, so they stop the charge at 80% until a few hours before you get up.

Ordering pizza is better than starving people.

Emissions controls are also bound to become stricter, which increases prices.

I mean, not being allowed to trade doesn't help their economy either.

More like if you aren't pumping and selling it someone else are going to do it later.

Also, 1000 > 10??? And how can money be prioritized below work? I wouldn't work if not for money.

Hm, actually maybe not. Can get power from display, and people use Bluetooth mice etc. Some "laptops" come with Bluetooth keyboards.

Overall probably better than USB as long as you can fit the electronics.

The usb-c ports are semi internal, so doable with a tiny physical modification there. Display is normal DisplayPort afaik.

Well, no. By definition it has to see your face. If it can see your face you can see it first, and at that point it isn't unlocked. By default you also have to swipe up after unlocking. That is even more work.

One common use case for me is handing it to my passenger while driving. Face id would require me to put it in my fov, which counts as distracted driving. With touchid it unlocks as I slide it out of my pocket.

It can apparently recrystalize into normal ice, releasing heat while doing so.

Why would you reuse batteries in cars? If it has lost enough capacity to be taken out and replaced then you don't put it in again. You put it somewhere where the lowered energy density doesn't matter. Portable battery packs, off-grid cabins, peak shaving setups, hybrid conversions etc. Reusing battery cells is far easier than repairing a transmission.

No, batteries don't cost more than a car. A 30 kWh leaf battery can be had for less than 5k. You'd likely spend more than that in maintenance on an ICE over 10 years.

You say any diesel is 99% likely to make 500k miles. First of all, that is BS. Second of all, plenty of taxi companies have driven EVs for 1m+ miles. There is a reason why they are the car of choice for taxi services.

As for car emissions being a relatively small source of emissions - sure. But it's also one of the easiest sources of emissions to get rid of. The technology is already here. I think a more important often overlooked point is the effect smart charging systems and recycled batteries have on allowing us to build a more dynamic grid capable of being powered by cheap unreliable renewables. Renewables don't work well enough without storage - old electric cars get turned into cheap grid storage, which makes a full renewable transition easier.

We have had a large used market for EVs for the last decade and EVs hold their value far better than anything else.

Batteries from old EVs get broken down and reused all the time as well. Battery packs from crashed cars go for $5k+
