We've gone from the most reliable battery being an alkaline through 3 different rechargeable technologies as well. Too bad that research never pans out...

Chase it down? It says 720 Wh/kg in the thumbnail image.

So I went to my search engine of choice, typed in solid state battery, set the time range to 1 month, went to the news tab, and this is the first link. 2 days old.

Just because no one went out of their way to remind you that researchers are continuing their research doesn't mean they stopped doing it. And when the bar is this low to satisfy your curiosity, it really is on you. It would have taken less time to get the highlights than it would to post your comment.

This is always the problem with laisse faire capitalism. People have shown time and again, they will do whatever they can to increase profits. If we don't have regulations to stop them, and strictly enforce them, corners will be cut and profits will increase until people start dying in large numbers.

But not that way...

I was reading this and realized my two monitors are from over 15 years ago...

Reading comprehension fail.

I didn't take it that way. From what I've heard, it's a very challenging process, and I'm not sure it's worth it for this use case. It also sucks that it's so damned ugly. And there's all the good will he burned, ki d of sad.

So glad no one else is making a vehicle like that. Oh, you mean different techniques, not ugly as fuck and designed by a preteen who loves minecraft?

And there's that presumption. Just like the idea that a Faraday cage will block a magnetic field such as the earth's. And unless your suggestion is that the poster just has to store his archive on the moon or farther, it will still be subject to influence from another magnetic field. And everything I've read puts bit rot at about 1% per year, which means, even with aggressive error correction about 50% of the archive will be lost within 70 years without an active refresh of the media. That's not what's generally meant by archiving. If it was, we would be talking about a process and a commitment by third parties to keep some random person's archive intact for a century, unless what you're really trying to suggest is that the real trick to building an archive that will last over a century is to live even longer?

Highly presumptive on many fronts, as well as conflating the ability to reliably write with the ability to read data over the same time span. So, tell me of the connector on this hard drive that you have that is older than me. And what do you use that drive for beyond as a curiosity?

HDDs aren't written physically onto the plate. They flip magnetic fields. Anything relying on magnetic fields to store data is going to have a lifespan measured in decades, at best.
