TL;DR Embattled retro gaming YouTuber Once Were Nerd left out key incriminating details in his initial video. Earlier videos uploaded to the channel link to blog posts sharing ROM and BIOS downloads. He may have also sold consoles, with ROMs, on the secondhand market via Facebook.

This startup wants to use beams of energy to drill geothermal wells

technologyreview.com Casey Crownhart 2026-01-12 04:00:00

This rock-melting drilling technology from the geothermal startup Quaise is certainly unconventional. The company hopes it’s the key to unlocking geothermal energy and making it feasible anywhere. Geothermal power tends to work best in those parts of the world that have the right geology and heat close to the surface. Iceland and the western US, for example, are hot spots for this always-available renewable energy source because they have all the necessary ingredients. But by digging deep enoug
