President Beep posted:do those numbers include gamer mode? assuming you're talking about the modes they mark "game mode" which turn off a bunch of processing stages to boost latency, that would tend to use a tiny fraction less power by not running the extra processing circuitry. wouldn't otherwise affect it.

Shifty Pony posted:if Tesla built a nuclear reactor it would fry every electrical device on the grid due to its poorly trained AI determining that voltage sags below 120V at consumer outlets could be eliminated by quadrupling the line voltage. The reactor fails by venting coolant steam toward the nearest fire truck. Celexi posted:A single person died from fukushima.

That's pretty fast, but the dual-motor Model S P85D unveiled late last year can get there in just 3.2 seconds, in what's called "insane mode."

To learn about why nuclear power is good, google “Texas petrochemical explosion,” “Baseload power,” and “DoE US power generation by source” Integrate the three in your head, then google “IPCC working group 1 report”

Re: nuclear reactors, there are more modern designs that are focused on passive safety (so they fail safe), like Westinghouse's AP1000 reactor. The problem is they're expensive as poo poo to build compared to a comparable natural gas plant. At least for the AP1000 it didn't help that Westinghouse was trying to build multiple plants at the same time on a design that wasn't fully complete, so every project went way over budget. Ideally they would have built one, learned from their mistakes, built another, rinse and repeat, but instead they went all in and ended up bankrupt.

Like the cherenkov glow emanating from the intensely irradiated Eiffel tower can be seen from space and may cause our world to appear as a pulsar to distant radio observers, dousing their receiver with energetic rays every 24 hours or so.

not surprised that germanys biggest stick shift nostalgist is a coal fan (continuing to burn lignite for 20 years is criminal lol) ng is better than coal, less carbon at least avoids the radioactive material dispersed in coal ash. still too much carbon . standard set of mass produced small passively safe modular reactors makes a lot of sense, but will never happen. hope for lots of industrial pv and batteries i guess
