Theoretically, both could be done. Theoretically.

Not forever

I’d rather we get rid of oil subsidies first

Except nickel is fairly rare, driving up the costs. Sodium isn’t

Because guns are bad, mmmkay?

/s

Sodium batteries are cheaper, safer, and last longer than lithium batteries. That’s exactly what you want for grid-scale energy storage. So yes, sodium IS better than lithium for grid-scale energy storage

What’s better depends on application

Go reread the thread. You’re (hopefully unintentionally) arguing against using sodium batteries for grid storage because lithuim has more energy density.

Cost, high longevity, and heat tolerance are way more important for grid storage than energy density. Sodium batteries are perfect for that, and were poised to start being supplied for that application until the price of lithium tanked at the start of the year.

Also, the sodium batteries that are (and were) about to go to market have enough energy density that manufacturers were considering adding them to cars by mixing and matching sodium and lithium cells in varying ratios to match various use cases. The two chemistries aren’t mutually exclusive in any field

Not forever

I wish the alpakka 2’s kickstarted had exceeded. That would have been sweet

So, you made a claim with nothing to back it up, based solely on parroted complaints from other people, and now you’re getting pissy when someone asks for proof?

How predictable

You’re fucking nuts if this is your response. I never said anything about age.

And guess what? I played New Vegas when it was new as well. Loved the game, but the fact of the matter is that its gun mechanics are terrible, evem when you compare it to other FPS games from that same year.

Fallout 3 came out in 2008. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare released in 2007. Guess which one has the better gunplay?

Fuck off with your ageism accusation. You want to know why age is irrelevant to the conversation? Because I never brought it up, jackass

Yes to your entire comment

And some states have drive-through liquor stores

for a car that can’t get you to the next town and back on a weekend.

Hyperbolic much?

As it stands, you can’t even walk around your own ship while it’s underway.

I dare you to list 3 game engines that actually can handle that, while still having other ships and obstacles rendered outside of the player’s craft while the player is outside of the pilot’s seat

Again, that’s a psychotic jump in logic. Get overyourself.

The comics from this “artist”

The quotes are extremely petty. These comics were made in the mid 2010’s, and it mocks things that actually did pop up at the time, like the hypocrisy of complaining about attention-seekers in instagram posts. And no matter how much you want to deny it, we all ran into at least one hypocrite like that back then.

Again, does it objectify women? Yes. Is it outdated? Yes. Should it be posted here? I wouldn’t ban it, but I’d appreciate if they were posted significantly less often.

But none of that justifies you making up ibtent where there is none. If you really need to read so far into media that you’re making things up, go reread The Great Gatsby or rewatch NGE for the millionth time.

Also, don’t bother responding to this. You’ve already demonstrated you’re a toxic asshole via your recent comments here and elsewhere. You’re not worth any more of my attention

Tbh, their reply sounds like they’re making it up. Physical releases have been pretty notorious for not having the full game on disk and/or requiring massive day-1 patches the past decade

Except it wasn’t intended to be a remaster. They used Skyrim as a testbed to overhaul the Creation Engine to x64 to prepare it for Fallout 4, and by the end of it they effectively had a new, more stable version of Skyrim so they released it for free to everyone that already had the base game and DLC’s.

And this was mainly a project for the engine developers. All of the artists, level designers, etc. were focussed on Fallout 4 at the time.

EDIT: You also seem to be unaware that the USSEP is also notorious for taking artistic license with some of their “fixes”. Such as making the Warrior Stone apply to archery instead of the Thief Stone and changing the ores in Redbelly Mine from ebony to iron despite there being good lore reasons for them to be ebony

I’m willing to bet that you’ve never actually played Starfield, you’re just parrotting what others have complained about.

Does Starfield have problems? Yes. But anyone who goes “hurr durr ancient engine” clearly hasn’t played a Bethesda game since Skyrim

The gun play in Fallout 4 was actually good. It’s 3 and New Vegas where it sucked
