Maybe more than 100 billions of dollars even, depending on whether you “only” consider the 1,148,800 BTC that have never been spent or the 1,814,400 BTC that have been awarded to Satoshi in total.

I wholeheartedly agree!
I installed Bazzite because I wanted an easy solution for my laptop with Nvidia GPU - now it’s my daily driver and gaming is only a fraction of its job.

Wouldn’t an AMD RX 9060 XT with 16 GB RAM be nice as well if you’re hunting for good speed/cost options?

One could argue that fossil fuels are a kind of chemical battery that store solar energy from aeons ago.
But in a strict sense you’re right and that’s why I’m keen on having more batteries in the wild, because there are (more and more) times, in which wind turbines and solar farms need to be throttled or shut down, because their continued operation endangers the grid by providing too much electric energy.
So more batteries -> more renewable energy can be captured and stored/buffered!

Yeah, like let’s complain about lithium having a limited supply (which can be recycled until the cows come home) while burning fossil fuels all the while - which are also limited but gone after having been burned. The cherry on top is burning them pollutes the air and causes climate change.
Aside from new mining techniques and new battery technology there’s still the option to improve the situation by moving people and goods onto rails and operating the trains directly by electricity and not through batteries - a technology already available. It just needs to be implemented at more places.
I’m aware that this is no solution that fits all situations, but I’m damn sure a lot of situations would be improved by having more rails/trains.

The real world begs to differ: https://www.livescience.com/technology/electric-vehicles/china-puts-a-sodium-ion-battery-into-an-ev-for-the-first-time-it-can-drive-248-miles-on-a-single-charge

In the end it’s a matter of price, reliability, usability, etc.
And while sodium based batteries have a worse energy density (space and weight wise) than lithium based batteries, they seem to have advantages in other areas (eg. no. of charge cycles, price per kWh, no thermal runaway, basically unlimited amounts of cheap sodium available).

Spot-on!
Alas, I’ve written my last comment before I read yours.

Do you think it’s easier to

1. cob lithium from rocks, dug from the earth or
2. extract lithium from a lithium battery
   ?
   Where do you think will be the higher concentration of lithium?

First you make batteries economically viable alternatives to fossil based energy sources.
Then the competition for even more economically viable battery technologies brings the tech to the next level.
Besides, lithium and the used rare earth elements can be recycled. It’s not like they’d evaporate when being used.

Strange to see something good coming off a war.

You’ve convinced me of it. Into the sun it is!

Maybe you’re right.
But what about: we shoot him there and make him pay for it (preferably before doing the shot)!

That requires more energy than shooting him out of the solar system.
I’m all for energy efficiency!
Nice side effect: he has more time to contemplate the reason behind his long journey.

PostmarketOS was already mentioned.
There’s another Linux OS for phones I’m aware of: https://sailfishos.org/

Setting the stage for nuking Iran, because a ‘conventional war’ can’t be won?
Can we please turn back time some thirty years?

Can you imagine what you can do with thermite to those cars?

Aim for the fuel tank then.
But even without a sound made by the thermite, the message can be loud and clear.

I sometimes do when people try to mow me down at crosswalks with their cars, because they’re busy with their phones instead of paying attention.
I haven’t found something that helps so far.

10a is supported, but flagged experimental:

Doesn’t remove the cars, but sends a loud message.
