I mean… this thing just ate energy. The prototype car was pulling 6.5kV off the conducting rails to keep the air jets running hard enough for the hovering, and it wasn’t even carrying a passenger load. If you add more weight you have to add more air thrust to keep hovering, which means bigger engines and more power, and the production model will need extras for redundancy because if the air cushion weakens while you’re doing 200+kph and the car just grazes the track you’re in big trouble. I seriously doubt this concept can scale up to a working transit system and be at all safe. The electricity input alone would be a hazard.
I’ll bet it sounded like a Harrier from the outside too.
Also what do you think the vortex is like above the air intakes? I’m imagining this thing cruising along sucking in birds and just flushing them straight down onto the track as it travels the countryside.
If you’re just doing a quick config edit, nano is significantly easier to use and is also present in most distros.
Vi/Vim is useful as a customizable dev environment, but in the present there are better, more feature-rich development tools - unless you are specifically doing a lot of development in a GUI-free system, for some reason.
Um, the core feature is privacy invasion. It does what it says on the tin.
It’s fine if some people want that functionality, as long as it’s not enabled by default.
Food is a reasonable target for biodegradable packaging because you don’t really expect the food to sit around for more than a year (for long-term food packaging you just wouldn’t use a biodegradable material).
Packaging products that might have a long shelf life is more problematic. If the material breaks down in saltwater then it will start breaking down if someone picks it up with sweaty or recently washed hands.
Well right, and coating them with plastic means that they leave plastic residue behind if they break down in an uncontrolled environment, and increases the cost and complexity of recycling:
If the paper has a plastic or aluminum coating, it can be recycled, but it is much more expensive and complicated.
Some plastic coatings can be separated from paper during the recycling process. Still, it is often cheaper and easier to use virgin materials to create new products than recycling paper coated with plastic.
Paper coated with plastic isn’t suitable for composting, and most times, such products are incinerated for heat or landfilled rather than recycled.

Yes they already exist. They are not really better than pure plastic, they’re kind of a form of greenwashing because they appear to be environmentally friendly.
Aida said the new material is as strong as petroleum-based plastics but breaks down into its original components when exposed to salt.
If this means that it does not break down when exposed to just water, that’s a pretty big deal. Water solubility has been the major issue making biodegradable plastics useless for food packaging (typically you want to either keep the food wet and water in, or dry and water out - either way water permeability is a problem).
Of course most foods also contain salt, so… I guess that’s why the article talks about coatings. If the material has to be coated to keep it from breaking down too fast, what is the point? either the coating will prevent it from breaking down, or it just moves the problem to the coating not breaking down.
republicans who are saying china is bad because of communism.
Yes, well, those are some very confused people who wouldn’t know communism from a hole in the ground.
They’re a lot like the people on .ml and hexbear, even some of the people on .world.
Yes, comrade, we have the best trains. They are most efficient for getting workers to the labor camps. We must work hard to build the glorious future for dear leader our people!
Potato, tomato…
Concentration camp is where you go when you really need to focus on learning to be a better wage slave party member patriot nationalist lunatic citizen.
Oh no, they also do a lot of work in the food industry.
One of the more revealing – and darkly amusing – features was the phone’s automatic censorship of words deemed problematic by the state.
…
Ha ha, no. Petroleum lobby needs a new pair of shoes.
Say what you want about the PRC, they make the trains run on time.
(the secret ingredient is slave labor!)
right right… which part of China is communist again? is it the permanent oligarchy? the reeducation camps? the low-paying factory jobs that make the owner class rich?
Pain is a great teacher.
If you had the hardware to build a robot that could “feel” the world around it, and you wanted it to self-teach how to move around on its own (so that you don’t have to pre-define movement paths), you would probably program in a system that could interpret potentially damaging sensations as danger/bad and avoid them automatically (too hot/too cold/too sharp/too hard/etc). That system would essentially be a pain response.
Graphene is the most amazing material, it can do anything you can imagine - except leave the lab.
Encrypting the connection is good, it means that no one should be able capture the data and read it - but my concern is more about the holes in the network boundary you have to create to establish the connection.
My point of view is, that’s not something you want happening automatically, unless you manually configured it to do that yourself and you know exactly how it works, what it connects to and how it authenticates (and preferably have some kind of inbound/outbound traffic monitoring for that connection).
