“This breakthrough development translates into a remarkable improvement in cell-core energy density, reaching 2,000Wh/L in batteries and approximately 1,700Wh/L in full-size EV batteries – more than double the performance of current state-of-the-art technologies,”

“Sienza’s 3D pure silicon anode has demonstrated an average gravimetric capacity of 2,941 mAh/g,” Professor Gharib said. “This means that for every gram of silicon, our batteries can store 2,941 milliampere-hours of electricity, significantly higher than the industry standard for graphite, with a gravimetric capacity of 372 mAh/g.”

Aside from completely avoiding the cobalt issue, Sienza notes that its manufacturing process does not rely on the solvent-based coating systems deployed for producing conventional lithium-ion batteries. Sienza cites one commonly used solvent in particular, N-methyl-pyrrolidone (NMP).

Concrete is also used in buildings and other facilities like pumped storage hydropower.

Of silicon panels.
In the lab, mixing silicon and perovskites has already achieved 34%.

It's more about the use of perovskite (while retaining durability), which should lower the cost of the panels.
The efficiency improvement is a bonus.

I've been wanting to buy a Pixel for a while now (for GrapheneOS), but there's always something that bothers me too much.
This time around, the Pixel 9 pro sounds like it will be great, but I'll be waiting to see Google's custom SoC using TSMC for the Pixel 10.
I could always just get the 9 later at a lower price or used.

BlurBusters have nice articles about this.

TL;DR: Less motion blur and less artifacts (like stroboscopic effects, which can also be visible at 480hz).

And in general I didn't expect to see praise for a group that has "A Curse Upon the Jews" as part of their official slogan.

Have you seen the video about the thermoformable palm rests?
That and the interchange-able input devices are pretty neat.

It's difficult to find reviews on it though. And in general finding people who've used it.
I guess their Discord would be the best place for that.
I've also seen a few reviews on Reddit.

Been using it over a year and loved it from the beginning.
Wrote a bit more about it in this comment https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/11566566

It's also designed with custom mounts in mind, so you can really adjust it to what you prefer.

I personally ended up getting the Glove80.
I don't have experience with the Advantage 360, but there are some reviews of people who have used both and compared them.
Like this and this.

There's also the Svalboard, although it might be a step too far for you. It has options for integrated trackballs / trackpoints.

Been using the Glove80 for over a year now and I love it.
Everything about it is exactly what I wanted from an ergonomic keyboard and it's also very customizable.
It's been very comfortable for me from the moment I got it up until now. And while I used to like rough PBT keycaps texture, I've learned to enjoy the Glove80's smooth POM keycaps.
I had only one keyboard before it which I could consider as "ergo" and have used for quite a bit - The Sweep. I liked it, but the limited amount of keys ended up being an annoyance for me. Especially when gaming. Plus the Glove80's curve and palm rest make it substantially more comfortable for me, despite it being a larger keyboard.

There are only 2 things left on my checklist for the "perfect ergo keyboard":

  • Lighter switches - I got the red chocs before the red pro chocs were an option. I'm thinking of soldering the 20g ambient switches though.
  • Pointing input module - There was some work going on about an Orbital v2 touchpad integration with the Glove80. But I haven't heard anything about it since (I think it's been over a year).

So I've been eyeing the Svalboard.
I'm not sure it'll fit my needs as it isn't wireless and has less keys. But I love everything else about it.

Better to pirate it.
The original devs were kicked out and the current owners are scummy.
