rossmohax··on Gigafactories are recycling old EV batteries into new ones
We can imagine anything, but there is no alternative in sight to fossil fuels when weight (aviation) or total energy capacity (freight naval fleet) are decisive factors.

We are yet to see EV trucks adoption, it is too early to talk about other more demanding uses.

Oil refineries will still be around to produce fuel for aviation and cargo ships.
rossmohax··on Spotify Royalty Calculator
I can't pinpoint where I got it from, it is kinda common knowledge (or so I thought).

Seems that TIDAL is the good one.

> TIDAL will be the first streaming service to pay artists with the money of subscribers who have actually listened to the artist. Other major music services such as Spotify and Apple Music now aggregate their users' money and give most of it to the artists with the greatest success. As a user, you actually pay musicians you never listened to. Many unions and artists have been criticizing this system for years. It favors stars and leaves little for the smaller musicians.

rossmohax··on Putlockernew.vc – Fully functional, up and running Putlocker mirror
They claim they partnered with content providers and claim they show legal content only. How is it possible? There are movies from 2022 in full HD with subtitles. Who pays for bandwidth? Whats the incentive for content providers to give it away?
rossmohax··on Spotify Royalty Calculator
I know Spotify divides all money between all artists, regardless of what user actually listened. It is one big pot for both sides. Is there a service with (in my view) more fair model, where my monthly subscription is divided only between artists I actually listened in a month?

Mainly to know when to open windows (CO2 monitor?) and to vacuum and its effect (PM2.5?) and maybe some generic stuff because why not (temperature, humidity, pressure). I probably want something more precise, that just a traffic light system, but don't plan to plot readings in Grafana either.
