Melio··on Two new ways of extracting lithium from brine
I have not stated my opinion on lithium production only the difference to oil.

And yes it's the co2 but the co2 is always the issue when we talk about climate change.

If we get ecopolitical: I think lithium itself is right now much better to extract from earth then oil as it will help to transition away from fossil fuels and I'm not blind to the fact that my existence creates struggles for other humans.

It's not just 100 years old.

It's over 1000 years old and it evolved from nothing to what we have.

It's very weird that you ignore history like this.

You should read up on Spain, silver, gold, china and tons of other history regarding tender.

What we have with fiat is your very well working monolith fine tuned over centuries while everyone who wants to make money of of you tells you why their Nanoservice with security holes and no features is so much better.

We don't consume it we use it.

This makes a huge difference to oil.

You burn oil away.

You can recycle lithium (which is currently not happening) and reuse it.

You can also use the accumulator in a less efficient way until you even need to recycle. Like stationary scenarios if it's already useless for EVs.

This also reduces the first respond burden.

After that a lot of people would dye sooner than later.

There was a Simpsons episode were they had a bunker but not for enough people.

Flanders had not enough space and was left outside. Then everyine started to emerge from the bunker.

People who think they want to survive an apocalypse so badly that they romantify a bunker live might not have thought through it deep enough.

I want to be protected from a fallout so I can move out of my region after the fallout but that means survival of a few days not month or years. And I definitely don't care much for lifing on a totally destroyed planet.

Melio··on AMD is now worth more than Intel
I'm very curious how good Nvidia is in research against amd.

I'm aware of plenty of Nvidia research topics. I'm not aware of anything breathtaking from amd.

Dlss is also the feature why I want an Nvidia card.
