Why is the generator different looking in each of the images?

Could it possibly be AI? ¯\(ツ)

[-] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

What, you don't think that the air filter and gas tank aren't designed to move from spot to spot? Or maybe you have issues with the innovative dual intake dual carb setup?

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I'm not sure it's definitely AI, part of the 'generator' appears to be the Lenovo power brick and where they have it attached moving around.

Not sure about the chain in the middle right picture though.

[-] rants_unnecessarily@piefed.social 9 points 3 months ago

Each of the pieces, red, white and black are different shaped and sized in each of the pictures.

The fuel tank is aligned with the red thing in the left picture and the black thing in the others.

The connection to the laptop has a 15cm gap between the machinery and the laptop in the left picture, but it is directing connected in the top right picture.

There are 2 tubes missing in the top right picture.

The chain is the opposite way round in the left and bottom right images and it's completely missing in the top right.

Shall I continue?

Hey, the pictures was taken during the work in progress

Great design, with the exhaust pointing directly at the user.

Also, I feel like a 100W solar cell (about 0.5 m^2^) and an extra battery would be slightly more practical for off-grid computing.

Yeah by the time one web page opens the user will be long dead.

[-] Ziglin@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

It is rather difficult to browse the interweb when you are off the grid…

[-] Kanda@reddthat.com 3 points 3 months ago

There's this amazing invention called satellites

[-] fartographer@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

That kind of technology goes over my head

[-] Cyrus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

That’s how it should be. Look what they took from us!

[-] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 2 points 3 months ago

Thus sharply cutting power use!

[-] Gladaed@feddit.org 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Sometimes people want to redneck for redneckings sake.

The correct solution is either a battery bank or a battery bank with the tiniest generator(of your chosen power source)

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 3 points 3 months ago

Or a normal generator with a few meters of cable

[-] testaccount789@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

Or, hear me out, build a remote nuclear power plant, set up long cables to get the electricity to your laptop, and sell the excess power for profit.

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

Step 1: Build npp
Step 2: plug in cable
Done.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 21 points 3 months ago

Fuck, thats a good price.

[-] Geth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 3 months ago

And all that for just 1.5 hours of runtime.

[-] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Install gentoo.

This is the most Mad Max object I’ve ever seen in real life

[-] db2@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

You still haven't seen it in real life, it's a picture on the internet and it's slop anyway.

[-] SomeDudeFromSpace@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 months ago

You must be fun at parties

[-] db2@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Your mom certainly thinks so

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 6 points 3 months ago

One of a kind

gee I wonder why

[-] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I'm going to claim it's fake because there is nothing resembling a generator in the photos.

[-] YeahIgotskills2@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

"At least the batteries won't just randomly explode" (half the comments on my hometown's FB page whenever anyone mentions EVs)
