So the Google Nest Protect come with Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries. Today one of the cells had thermal runaway after 4 years. Thankfully I found out because smoke detector started chirping. 1/6 batteries was hot to touch, and is still warm over 20 minutes later. Eek!

Update: I didn’t tweet about the situation right away, but we are now over an hour after I pulled the batteries and that one Energizer cell is still warm. So I am guessing there is still some amount of runaway occurring but far less with no current flowing.

So let’s say you’re in possession of a single Energizer Lithium battery cell that you suspect is experiencing some amount of thermal runaway. What the hell are you supposed to do with it? Just put it in a ceramic bowl outside and let it chill for awhile?

So this HW3 FSD build known as v12.6 or v13.2.3 feels like it needs a little tweaking before wide release. Weird issues with very early turn signaling for right turns, and waits a long time after pedestrians cross a cross-walk before continuing.

Congratulations Wisconsin on electing Susan Crawford. As a result of your strong grassroots organizing, you have defeated the wealthiest person on earth. You have set an example for the rest of the country. We can do it.

Thanks to NASA Webb Telescope, we have more information about asteroid 2024 YR4. It's about the size of a 10-story building. Based on data from Webb and ground-based telescopes, the asteroid also has a nearly 4% chance of impacting the Moon in 2032. go.nasa.gov/42eQI8o

Does Lance Stroll have fans? Today when entering the paddock he went out of his way to avoid those waiting there, and basically ignored them when they called his name. Was pretty lame. Antonelli, Bearman, Occon, Gasly, Doohan, and others took time to greet them. #F1 #SuzukaGP

Every Republican member of Senate & House caused stock market crash & now predicted recession because they are refusing everyday to use Congress’s constitutionally granted authority to legislatively block the illegal Trump tariffs. The Last Word 10pm tonight

Day 1193 of my 3 day war. Several billion dollars worth of Russian aircraft were destroyed by several thousand dollars of Ukrainian drones. I remain a master strategist.

Such a major blow to Russia’s strategic bomber fleet could have been avoided if Moscow had chosen to engage in peace talks, rather than escalating the war and undermining diplomatic efforts initiated by Kyiv, Washington, and Brussels.
