I would if I could buy a house. 40k in the bank. Good credit. 7 years at my current job. Still can’t get a 155k house.
The 75k townhouse won’t sell, and won’t tell me why. Been trying to buy a house for 5 years. Now I’m being told I need to wait another year.
So this past month I’ve just given up. Nothing matters.

If it makes you feel better, I’m 100k in the hole on the one I bought in 2021, and can’t even afford to sell it.

Just install an industrial military complex in your backyard, then use it to extract lithium or oil from all the sources. Its a tried and tested method.

Honest question: What’s wrong with MDPI? I’ve published in one of them, and noted that they (MDPI) have been spamming for more ever since, but other than that I haven’t heard of any issue with them.

If you are a researcher, you shouldn’t have to ask someone for information that is readily available and particularly for that which you should already have intimate knowledge of.
- Multi-disciplinary = inexpert
- Review process = payment please
- some actual reputable journals and scientific bodies no longer use it due to previous 2 points
Yes, we should all avoid discussion with humans at all costs, and of course already know everything anyway.
Imagine not knowing something and asking a human for more information? Ew

Being a researcher, I know that the most efficient way to get more knowledge about a claim can be to ask the person making the claim. Being a lemmy-user, I recognise the value of asking the question openly so that others can read the response. I really don’t understand why you would try to make that point (in a derogatory way nonetheless …) of course I could check this myself, that’s easy. I decided to ask because
a) You might have specific reasons for claiming what you did that could be different from, or more specific than, the myriad of reasons that could show up in a search.
b) I wanted to contribute here by opening for a pleasant conversation about publishing practice.
With that said: I’m kind of surprised these points would be applied to the publisher as a whole. The fact that the publisher is multi-disciplinary doesn’t in my eyes imply that the individual journals are “inexpert” (they can still be confined to a niche). The review process is also typically run by the individual journal, so I’m a bit surprised that a blanket description of “crappy review” is applied to a publisher as a whole.
Liberal: my electric car is so clean bro, it uses tons of lithium but that’s mined somewhere else, so it’s okay.
Geologist: Lithium deposit in your backyard.
Liberal: Not in my backyard.

Lithium is not the most abundant part of a lithium ion battery, despite the name. It is very important but it is also very reusable. It can even, theoretically, be recycled. It will never be equivalent to oil. There’s just not the same incentive to start wars over the thing.
That’s true for right wingers. They’ll tell you “drill, baby, drill” but then they complain when you do it in their backyard instead of the middle east or a black neighborhood.
Exactly, and they should be held to the same standard too. If you’re going to laugh at one side for saying something hypocritical, you should also laugh at the other side for saying something hypocritical as well.
There is no red, there is no blue, there is the state, and it hates you.
The Oregon Chapter of the Sierra Club indicates they support cleaner energy but believe drilling must not come at the expense of fragile habitats.
Foreign lithium isn’t magic, zero-footprint lithium. We are a major consumer of lithium, and will probably increase if we’re going to move to BEVs. If we’re going to consume it, it only seems fair to the rest of the world to have some of the footprint in our own territory.

BEVs and energy storage needs to move on to safer battery systems. Lithium batteries have killed a lot of people already.

CATL has a sodium ion battery car coming out this year. Literally zero risk of thermal runaway, more resilient in extreme high and low temperatures and many more life cycles than lithium ion at a lower cost.

There are different types of lithium batteries. LFP never killed anyone.
- rafoix@lemmy.zipEnglish2 hours
LPF is the safest lithium ion battery but still less safe, less performant and more expensive than CATL’s sodium-ion battery.
- jj4211@lemmy.worldEnglish1 hour
less performant
Well this is a matter of how you define “performant”.
It’s got lower energy density, which is generally considered a critical measure.
- rafoix@lemmy.zipEnglish56 minutes
CATL sodium ion doesn’t have less energy density than LPF batteries.
It also works well at higher and lower temperatures than all lithium ion batteries. Charges faster. Safer than the safest LPF batteries. Materials are also abundant and inexpensive everywhere in the world.

The oil companies weren’t interested in increasing supply and thus having to lower their prices.
