now all we need are solar panels to clean the solar panel-cleaning solar panels

[-] [email protected] 20 points 4 weeks ago

Just give it a little squeegee on a robot arm to run down its panel every so often

[-] [email protected] 17 points 4 weeks ago

with a solar panel to power it of course

[-] [email protected] 8 points 4 weeks ago

But who will clean that solar panel?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 4 weeks ago

a smaller cleaning robot obviously, powered by a smaller solar panel

[-] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago

An infinitely recursive loop

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

Just tinier and tinier solar squeegy bots forever.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

Seems like it could power its own, keeping it a closed loop.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

next iteration of panels will use a Möbius loop!

That little bot is one of my favourite Pixar characters. The dedication to cleaning every single spot is inspiring

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 weeks ago

I love him when he gets upset at someone for spilling on something it just cleaned

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

We trained my 5yo son to go "woah woah woah woah woah woah woah" in a similar voice to that robot, and it's so funny how he chooses to use it. He is also our favorite Pixar character, also!

Exactly what I thought about.

It's solar panels all the way down

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

Always has been.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

You'd only need two, if anyone is interested.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

What cleans the cleaning solar panel?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

Just get two and use whatever power is left.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

It is quite impressive how far China has developed in such a little time. It all happened during my lifetime.
