As an example: My vehicles electric battery is warrantied for 10 years or 150,000 mi. Even with that being said, I have seen models of my car used well into the 300-400,000 mi range.

And while I'm not an expert on the matter, it is my understanding that there are recycling plants for electric vehicle batteries. Which I would imagine would reduce the environmental cost of electric vehicles.

Not to mention the research being done on different battery chemistries that are less environmentally hazardous, last longer, are more energy dense, and so on.

As someone with ADD, I get stuck in scroll loops a lot. If the scrolling had an end, it's easier to kick my brain out and get it to go do other things.

But if there's infinite scroll, my brain will happily sit for hours and just scroll through random crap.

Which is more of a problem with my brain, but having interrupted scrolling makes it easier to break the loop.

That would explain why I don't see them often. I haven't been very active in gaming as of late, let alone modding. And I generally don't pirate games. I'm cool with people that do, I just don't personally. (Virus fears, being out of the loop long enough that I don't know any good sites, etc)

Today I learned!

They both really tax your liver

Again, I'm not the original poster. But zip isn't as dense as 7zip, and I honestly haven't seen rar are used much.

Also, if I remember correctly, the audio codecs and compression types. The other poster listed are open source. But I could be mistaken. I know at least 7zip is and I believe opus or something like that is too

Not the original poster, but there are newer audio codecs that are more efficient at storing data than mp3, I believe. And there's also lossless standards, compared to mp3's lossy compression.

Doesn't it compress the contents that it's storing to help kind of get the best of both worlds?

You get faster storage because it's in ram still, but with it being compressed there's also "more" available?

I could be completely mistaken though
