A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If this gets peer reviewed and confirmed, what would that mean? What applications would this material have?

Maglev could become more common and more effective, but a "no-limit" battery comes to mind (no resistance=infinite charge) which could make each city or nation own an endless reservoir of energy. Goes well with renewables.

Those are just 2 ideas. I'm sure there will be a lot more.

EDIT: ignore the "no limit" battery, that's a mistake. I mixed resistance with charge and made a stupid and wrong statement.
