Before people jump in here to talk about how battery technology never comes to market... Every single one of these discoveries teaches us something new, sometimes it reveals tech that's unsustainable, sometimes it's un-manufacturable, but it always gives us another direction to look for things.
Tech goes relatively slowly from lab results to store shelves, so stuff you read about 10-20 years ago are what are in your devices today. This could very easily be the way that your phone runs in 2035.
This could be as game changing as lithium ion was back in the early 2000's, or it could go the way of most lab results. We won't know until we keep poking at it and figuring out what it is useful for.
He used his power and position to take advantage of an intern. Maybe you should care.
Most people that make it to the level of a president have done really shitty things, while this one wasn't at the top of the list, it's still pretty bad. Sucks that most of the hate and jokes were pushed towards the victim instead of the perpetrator.
Depends on what the goal is. Heavy vehicles do disproportionately more damage to the infrastructure.
They might want to encourage smaller, lighter cars, regardless of type. They certainly make small city EVs, as well as just encouraging walking, biking, public transportation, etc.

That's actually not true, and framework has similar issues. There was vampire power drains from certain mix and match options with HDMI and USB-C ports.

On the AMD framework, the upper right and left USB-C ports are slightly different from the lower ports

I love my framework laptop, but we shouldn't pretend that they are free from quirks that plague other brands.
0:36 Gaming.
4:38 Microsoft Office.
5:31 Photoshop.
7:15 Ecosystem of Linux.
9:39 Hardware compatibility.
As long as 10 is supported, I'm not updating. At least I'm not hammered with ads like on 11.
If 10 is sunset, I'll probably switch back to Linux. I rarely game on my laptop anyway.
Fewer vacation days? Heck no. If I wanted to burn vacation to get a 4 day week, I'd do it already.
Longer commute? Heck no. WFH or I walk.
Pay cut? Heck no. You KNOW that 99% of people will be just as productive with a 4 day work week as a 5 day, so why take less money for the same output?
Taking a step back in career? Not like I'm shooting for being a VP or anything, so I guess I don't care if I don't get promoted to senior middle manager meeting organizer, so who cares on that one.
I guess that's a good thing, but that % should be way higher for someone that committed treason, among numerous other crimes (as well as being just a terrible person in general.)
Very telling that big sites are only promoting VPN services that heavily advertise... i.e. - give commissions on signups.
The list of providers they "tested" aren't even that complete, they didn't even bother to pretend to check out ones that won't give a kickback for promotion.
They don't give specific recommendations, but the EFF has a good list of things to look for in a provider. https://ssd.eff.org/module/choosing-vpn-thats-right-you

I understand how you feel, but reading your story, I think when you were grabbing the product and telling him to "just drop it an leave" is what ended your career.
It sucks, you got attacked, but you don't need to trade your personal safety for some store product.
Just based on this story here, where you are giving a very one sided view of the situation, you intentionally put yourself at risk and kept escalating. I hate that a criminal put you in a situation where you ended up getting fired, but there was more than one mistake here.
