Maybe this is an issue for thicker pizzas? With thin pizzas (which is 99% of home pizzas where I live) you just kinda chop straight down rather than drag the knife through.

low quality cheeses.

I still have no idea how this would make a difference.

Maybe one of you could explain what happens when you try to cut such a pizza without letting it cool first?

I see what you're saying but the previous claims were more along the lines of "we have invented an entirely new type of battery that is more advanced" and the current claim is "we have had a breakthrough on how to manufacture a battery that has already been invented but wasn't practical to produce at scale previously" which is slightly different. As I said originally, we'll have to wait and see what if anything they actually produce.

They're like two random bedroom style (ie, intergrated DVD players that don't work) flatscreen TVs so I think I would need relatively strong mounts. The smaller one is a 19 inch. I guess the other is a 22 but I'm not sure or able to check right at this moment. I guess monitors get so much bigger than that now that maybe these sets aren't actually that heavy in comparison?

so you can cut it up right out of the oven without waiting for the cheese to cool off.

I'm confused as to why you would need to let your pizza cool before cutting anyway.

I've actually been considering this recently. Are you able to give me any suggestions or tips for what to look for?

Toyota have recebtly been claiming to have figured out a viable method to make practical solid state batteries at scale with the intention to have them powering cars in 2027. Whether they will or not by then is yet to be seen of course...

For future reference, Asus's flagship-style phones tend to be smaller and lighter than other manufacturers's products. Cheaper usually too. (They're actually the bottom end products in Asus's stack. The reason noone has heard of them as a smartphone manufacturer is they make really specialised high performance gaming smartphones for people willing to spend a fortune for a few more frames in mobile competitive games. But because they make super high performance smartphones they also do a normal everyday phone in the style of a non-gaming smartphone brand's top models.) Not sure why they like to make them smaller than rival brands but it's nice that there's a high quality option available for people who want a more reasonably sized phone than what most high end models offer (personally I love massive phones but I've recommended the Asus ones to a few people I know who are turned off by the size of most premium models.)

Edit: it's the ZenFone series (couldn't remember the name beforehand.) I think possibly the last one was a departure where they offered a more "normal" (IE big) model but the new ZenFone 10 that's accepting pre-orders now is explicitly promoted on being small for such a high-end handset.

Probably yes. But fortunately changes like this tend to spread out everywhere else anyway as the EU is too big a market to stop selling in but usually the economics are such that making an EU compliant version of your product and a non-EU compliant one doesn't make sense. It's why lots of US politicians tend to scramble to implement similar laws (eg, the universal charging cable connectors) once they've been entirely nailed down in the EU (because functionally it often is going to happen in practise either way, so by quickly passing a similar law they can take credit when it does.)

Alternatively, it's probably better long-term if those functions become replaced with official Mastodon instances that are for official announcements only.

eg If there were a California.Gov Mastodon instance with a !alerts@california.gov and a !earthquakes@california.gov then everyone in that area could just sub to those communities and if there was something to announce it could go out via those. Of course that presupposes that enough people are in the Fediverse for it to be a good platform to share that info but structurally it's probably far better than letting a third party commercial interest host these things.
