Since they are testers and not auditors, what prevents Donut Labs from changing the actual battery sent for testing, selecting whatever works best for that specific test? In aggregate each test would seemingly validate their claims, only nobody ever validated and audited the fact that the same exact battery was used in all the tests.

As many have said, so many red flags around something so exceptionally revolutionary that you'd need extremely strong and unquestionably real proof.

I love the unibody design of the Cocot 46 Plus: https://kbd.news/Cocot46plus-1455.html

However the board is not yet open source, like many Japanes custom boards.

Right. Basically routing (i.e. connecting pads / terminals of various electronic components) is a relatively hard problem and usually gets done by hand.

Ergogen lacks the ability to spit out routed PCBs, but the Samoklava repositories shows how to use a KiCad CLI addon to do just that and generate final files ready for fabrication (though you should always inspect them).

Check out the Samoklava GitHub repository (https://github.com/soundmonster/samoklava) for an example of auto-generated and auto-routed board leveraging Ergogen.

I am following on the steps of FlatFootFox to replicate the Corne (Cherry) in code, WIP for the moment: https://github.com/ceoloide/corney-island

Don't forget to support the creator of Ergogen, MrZealot: https://github.com/sponsors/mrzealot

Many reputable ebikes manufacturers certify their bikes for sale in Europe, through the CE mark and related EN certifications, so hopefully the FDNY will accept that as a comparable certification indicating quality.

This seems to nail it based on my experience.

At least anecdotally, the people I know that are vaccine-averse have the same fear of airplanes, etc.

It might just be the way they reason, fixating on worst-case outcome instead of a more balanced view.

I think this is the problem with the discourse around vaccines. People are quick to dismiss others as "reckless, unreasonable, impossible to convince".

The people I know are far from unreasonable, but they might be applying the wrong reasoning strategy or fixating on bad / outdated data, or worst case outcome only.

Nobody in the general population has the obligation to convince others, to be clear. I just wish the public discourse and institutions did a better job at educating and catering to those points of view instead of branding people by their against-vaccine stance only.

You are painting people in big strokes. The people I know that fear long term effects wear mask religiously and follow safety procedures.

These are also the same people that won't get a flu vaccine, and resist getting the vaccines for all but the most deadly of diseases.

Another comment in this submission mentioned being bad at evaluating risk, perhaps that's what it is. They fixate on the unknowns of a vaccine, but they aren't able to compare it effectively to the risks of the virus.

Treating others as ridiculous won't help with the convincing. Reason doesn't always work when strong emotions are at play.

However, I am no psychologist nor an influencer, I too don't know what can be done to overcome the impasse. I'd be curious to know what strategies work.

This is truly a very common sentiment. Independent of the approved status, the common phrase is "how can we know it won't have long term effects that are unknown now?".

Psychological effects of past medical disasters that caused irreversible harm and went under the authority's radar shouldn't be discounted, many people cling to that to justify their fear of the unknown.

So how do we set up a discourse that takes this type of fear into account? What are the tricks or strategies to help people overcome their fears?

Caveat: SIM will be replaced only by visiting a participating store in person. This is not always easy / possible, especially with ongoing COVID-19 transit restrictions.

According to a tweet by Bank Security (https://twitter.com/Bank_Security/status/1343646616490815493) a database dump has been circulating containing PII, Phone Numbers and ICCID of 2.5M sim cards. As a response, Ho-Mobile will replace SIM cards for free if requested.

The gist:

>> Global warming and ocean acidification associated with the immense volcanic CO2 injection to the atmosphere was already fatal and led to the extinction of marine calcifying organisms right at the onset of the extinction. However, the CO2 release also brought further consequences; with increased global temperatures caused by the greenhouse effect, chemical weathering on land also increased.

>> Over thousands of years, increasing amounts of nutrients reached the oceans via rivers and coasts, which then became over-fertilized. The result was a large-scale oxygen depletion and the alteration of entire elemental cycles.
