World's largest battery maker announces major breakthrough in energy density - In one of the most significant battery breakthroughs in recent years, the world’s largest battery manufacturer CATL has announced a new “condensed” battery with 500 Wh/kg which it says will go into mass production this year.

I read that they now have solar panels that can convert 36% of sunlight to electricity.

*Verification Requested

^^A4^^

This is dated but still interesting.

^^A5^^

Blood clots ARE NOT a problem.

^^A6^^

I have AAA on all of my vehicles. I wondered if their coverage included "acts of God" like flooding so I Googled it. It does. They lose a lot of money every time there is a flood.

Hattie McDaniel

When she was criticized for always playing a maid, she said, "Hell, I would rather play a maid than be a maid."

Indeed.

^^A8^^

I have always been fascinated that horses just happen to have a gap in their teeth to hold a bridle bit.

More like zerotonin, am I right?

Does anyone else think it's weird that when you're born you get a secret number that you have to keep hidden from everyone for the rest of your life?

FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY

Brushing teeth?

The worst comb-over in the history of hair.

Thoughts and prayers, my dude. Thoughts and prayers.

One of my wife's best friends is a professional comedian. When Rosanne Barr arrived in LA penniless, my wife's friend let her stay in her apartment for six months - even feeding her and buying her clothes. A few years later after Barr had more or less made it, my wife's friend called Barr to meet up. Barr said, "I have new friends now" and hung up on her.

I've hated her ever since I heard the story.

Did he wait outside in the car?

Google Personified - a classic internet find

When I was a kid I collected rocks - all rocks, not just the ones I wanted to use as weapons.

WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT


I don't really know why but that reminds me of a friend who told me that in the Navy he drove an aircraft carrier - literally. And when he got out of the Navy the only job he could get was unloading trucks on the graveyard shift.

^^C1^^

This is what happens when you eat all the red and blue pills...

^^C2^^

But you see, as far as the dog is concerned he is 100% successful in driving the trains away.

It's a duck-follow-duck world.....

This is someone's great-grandmother...

^^C11^^

I would break my neck.

^^C12^^

Juxtaposition...

^^C13^^

Men are hardwired to do that.

And women seem to be acutely aware of that...

^^C14^^


Tarmac Cutter

I have never seen that done and I have seen a lot of asphalt laid.

Wiring Sucks

Fuck toxic positivity.

In movies and TV shows people show up for parties with like a six-pack of beer. Hell, when I was still drinking I would drink a six-pack ON THE WAY to the party.

AND AWRY WE GO


I wonder how many times such things are lethal.

^^D1^^

^^D2^^

I'm guessing they are empty and there was a high wind.

^^D3^^

One of my mural crew was on a roof leaning over a wall to paint the top of a mural. The building was shaped like this.

I heard him moan and looked up to see the entire upper corner of the wall break away leaving him dangerously off-balanced. Somehow he managed not to fall but it scared all of us. Who could have predicted that four square feet of brick wall would just let go? We took the afternoon off.

^^D4^^

^^D5^^

This took me much longer than it should have...

^^D6^^

Something you don't see every damn day.
He even did the post-vomit jaw thing like humans do.
^^D7^^

Things got hot in Disneyland when "Murphy" (the nickname for the mechanical Maleficent dragon used in the "Fantasmic" show) caught ablaze in a technical malfunction that sparked a raging inferno. Ending the show early and forcing guests to evacuate the area. Thankfully no one was hurt.

That is dated but I posted it to ask about insuring such a thing. I'm thinking Disney is self-insured. Does anybody know for sure?

^^D8^^

In case you missed the real drama...

It was thrown right at the guy's face!

I agree with Wrekreation.
The boys are shirtless.
At least one of them has a bikini on.
They all have goggles on.
