Let Your Car Power Your Home

Freedomist Editor August 10, 2021

If you own an electric vehicle, you might one day be able to transfer excess power from your car built up while you drive to your home.

Energy stored in electric car batteries could power your home or stabilise the grid — and save you money

Excerpt:

The service is called V2G, or “vehicle to grid”, and it could be an important component of Australia’s electricity grid in coming years, plus a way for car owners to make a little extra income.

The concept is fairly straightforward: electric vehicles (EVs) are essentially very large batteries on wheels. Most of the time they sit idle.

With V2G, the batteries in parked EVs are hooked up to a special “bi-directional charger” and coordinated through a central server to export power to the grid during periods of high demand (namely, the evenings, when people turn on appliances).

Ben and Jerry Go All-In on Ending Israel as a State

The now famously, or infamously political biased owners of Ben and Jerry’s ice Cream have made it clear even more what they thing of Israel (following up on their boycott of sales to occupied territories)

Peter Beinart Called for the Elimination of the Jewish State. Ben And Jerry’s

Excerpt:

Ben & Jerry’s brought in vocal Israel critic and anti-Zionist author Peter Beinart to talk to its store owners about Israel’s “illegal occupation” earlier this week, after franchisees raised concerns about the company’s boycott of the Jewish state, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.

On the conference call with Ben & Jerry’s franchisees and store managers, Beinart argued that Israel is illegally occupying territory that it seized from Jordan in an offensive war in 1967 and claimed that the Jewish state sends soldiers into Palestinian villages to abduct minors, according to a source familiar with the content of the call.

The company’s decision to invite Beinart—an advocate for the Israel boycott movement who has called for the abolition of the Jewish state—to address insider objections indicates that it is doubling down on its criticism of Israel in the face of internal and external fallout. Thirty Ben & Jerry’s franchise store owners recently sent a letter to the company, which is owned by Unilever, asking it to “re-examine and withdraw” its boycott decision. Unilever has responded with reassurances that the company remains committed to doing business in the Jewish state even as its subsidiary continues its boycott.

So other than the accents and throwing shrimp on the barbies, this really could happen here. A man was outside running with his lady friend, wearing no mask because he’s outside, he’s running, and he’s got a history of heart issues, plus he’s outside and running (echo in here?) when the Aussie Po-Po put him under arrest. For not wearing a mask. While outside. And running. It was then that the lady friend whipped out her phone to record the pr*cks cuffing him and leading him away.

Scientists say they’ve placed an elusive time crystal inside a quantum computer.

Time crystals violate some laws of physics—notably, Isaac Newton’s first law of motion—in much the same way that many quantum phenomena do.

Quantum computers are built in supercooled chambers called cryostats.

Scientists from around the world claim to have harnessed a time crystal inside a quantum computer. If true, their discovery—as outlined in a July 28 pre-print research paper—could change the world virtually overnight with a limitless, rule-breaking source of energy that would bring quantum computers into the now.
