About a third of americans agree with you. This country has pitiful turnout.

It says (parody) in the name.

This is twitter, because elon lacks reading comprehension, so the rules require parody to be clearly marked.

Let’s all sing the 2024 politics song!

👏 anyone 👏 who 👏 disagrees 👏 with 👏 me 👏 is russian 👏 or 👏 chinese 👏

Always remember, there is no such thing as a differing opinion.

Pledging to vote for someone despite the genocide means they have no incentive to stop the genocide. That is the more dangerous stance.

Ballots are secret. There is no way to prove how you voted once the ballot is sumbmitted. The optimal play is to make a lot of noise saying that your vote is contingent on an end to the genocide, even if that isn’t how you actually vote on election day.

Pledging to vote for biden at this point is encouragement. Why would he do anything about palestine if he knows you’re going to vote for him anyway?

I appreciate the recommendation, that sounds like a fun community!

Isn’t a crash screen the last place you should your branding?

They want to advertise a $2 chicken box without actually selling chicken for $2.

I bought an old business monochrome laser printer ten years ago. Still hasn’t needed a new toner cartridge.

Under because that way you can model it by making a cylinder and adding a plane to it, because the plane is attached to the back you don’t have to do the extra work of making sure the textures line up.

You actually can run the engines in reverse. They have thrust reversers. There’s very good reasons that they do not reverse the plane from the stand using the engines, but it is possible.

The carbon comes from the fuel. Burning a ton of jet fuel will release the same amount of carbon regardless of the plane that burns it.

Taylor Swift’s plane is a Dassault Falcon 7X. It weighs around 17 tons and seats 12 to 16 passengers.

Her plane burns 60% less fuel than a 737 MAX 8. However, her plane holds 9% of the passengers of the MAX 8, so its far less efficient per passenger than typical commercial aircraft.

Private planes are not a huge contributor to carbon emissions in comparison to others. They’re bad, obviously. But there are far more commercial airplanes, and they fly much more frequently than private jets.

Private jets get people’s attention. One person being directly responsible for that much carbon is notable is unconscionable. But it’s the scale of transportation overall that is the issue.

All the weights listed were operating empty weight. The battery planes will be even smaller than the planes I listed for comparison.

Weights of planes vary in flight, so I picked the one that disadvantages the point I’m trying to make in the interest of fairness.

Trains don’t need to store the energy at all. Pantographs are a mature technology. High speed renewable long haul transportation is a technologically solved problem for all overland routes, it just requires infrastructure investment.

The plane in the article is a 4 ton airplane, they mention plans to make an 8 ton commercial aircraft.

The Learjet 31 is 4.4 tons. It seats 8 passengers. The Cessna CitationJet CJ3+ is right around 4 tons with a maximum of 9 passengers.

The future 8 ton aircraft is around the size of the 10-ton Dash 8 Q200 with a maximum of 40 seats.

There are commercial uses for aircraft this small, but these jets are significantly smaller than most commercial aircraft.

For context jet fuel is around 9,720 Wh/L. However, energy density(energy per volume) is less important in aviation than specific energy(energy per mass) as weight is far more likely to be the limiting factor.

A standard lithium ion battery has 100-265 Wh/kg

The article claims 500 Wh/kg in this new battery.

Jet fuel has around 12,000 Wh/kg.

Though this is a major improvement in battery tech, batteries are unlikely to ever improve to the point to even approach the energy storage of liquid fuels.

Batteries cannot run commercial aviation as it currently exists. Battery planes will need to fly slower and shorter. There is no other way.

No iron clothes is a lie. They say no iron on the label in the store, but they tell you to iron in on the care label.

Vandalizing cybertrucks before delivery is cool. Laws are not the arbitor of coolness.

If the us supported the two state solution, they wouldn’t have vetoed Palestine’s UN membership.

You can use electric mowers. They solve the belching fumes problem and nothing else.
