China: Breakthrough in Solid-State Batteries Announced – Doubling NEV Range! (17.10.2025)

17/10/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Chinese scientists have developed a self-adaptive interphase in all-solid-state lithium batteries that maintains intimate contact between the lithium metal anode and solid electrolyte without external pressure, a breakthrough that decisively overcomes a major bottleneck toward commercialization.

The researchers from the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering of the CAS and Huazhong University of Science and Technology found that the contact between the lithium electrode and sulfide solid electrolyte in all-solid-state lithium batteries is not ideal, with numerous tiny pores and cracks present. These issues not only shorten battery lifespan but may also pose safety risks.

UK: Daoism and the Politics of Ageing! (30.9.2025)

30/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

For me, it was obvious that “virtue” equated to “longevity” – and it had nothing to do with the Bible or Western religion (the godly live to very old ages). The Western view was (and remains) that non-Christians are essentially evil and therefore are unable to live to very old ages. The Devil strikes them down due to his own inherent corruption – which flows through their veins. As a non-Christian, this description would involve myself – but here’s the thing – I do not feel any more or less good or bad than anyone else. Furthermore, I was told that Chinese people “lie” about their age in an attempt to mimic those who lived very long lives in the Old Testament (according to the Jews). I could not understand this approach – as Chinese Daoism is an ancient teaching (in one form or another) that specialises in “life-extension”. Virtue (德 – De) is a product of climbing a tower (self-cultivation) so that when the top is reached (enlightenment) – things can be seen in a 360 degree perspective.

China: Scientists Unveil World’s First Hydrogen Anion Battery Prototype! (19.9.2025)

Hydrogen anions are highly reactive and polarizable, offering unique energy storage potential. But until now, no electrolyte had combined the high conductivity, thermal stability, and electrode compatibility needed for a functioning battery.

In tests, the prototype used sodium alanate as the cathode and cerium dihydride as the anode. It reached an initial discharge capacity of 984 mAh per gram and maintained 402 mAh per gram after 20 cycles. A stacked version delivered 1.9 volts and successfully powered an LED light, proving its feasibility beyond the lab.

Report: Ghost Hunting in North Devon! (29.8.2025)

29/08/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

With most of the lights off by 11pm, I sat on my religious chair (the Church dates back to the 14th century – and so does the chair). I cleared my mind and immersed myself into the ancient nature of the stone-work. The stone was cool to the touch – I went bare-foot to ground myself – and felt the calm structure of the place. No fear, no deception, and nothing to worry about, Although I neither support or oppose theology – I sensed the spiritual feel that all the attendees developed and projected into rge physical structure of the place. In many places in the UK, the Christians deliberately built their Churches on already existing Pagan sites of ancient spirituality – with nothing to do with a Christian god. The mistake that Christians make is that their own mind creates the religion they believe in – but they mistakenly believe that their religion exists “outside” their heads, independent of the mind that generates it. The perception is inverted and the wrong way around.

Dialectical Materialism & Rebirth for Marxists! (26.8.2025)

26/08/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

In a moment – things dialectically change forever. When the axe fell on the neck of Charles I in 1649 – the ancient convention of an absolute monarch in England ended forever. How could this have happened? Well, there was a Revolution which saw tens of thousands fight and die in England so that the emerging bourgeois class could usurp political power from the aristocracy. There was no future for the absolute monarchy. And yet the agency of the “moment”, despite its nature, continue to manifest unabated. Rebirth is not reincarnation – the Buddha hinted about the former but rejected the latter. Rebirth may not be what the average Marxist thinks it is. An effective Marxist regime must be replicated effectively from one generation to the next.

All Life on Earth Evolved From One [Identified] Ancestor! (20.4.2025)

20/04/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

As sequencing tech grows faster and cheaper, scientists will keep hunting for ancient gene families, refining the ancestral blueprint, and scoping out early viral fossils hidden in microbial DNA.

New drilling missions aimed at untouched seafloor vents could reveal communities whose lifestyles echo those first biochemical gambles, tightening links between geology and genetics.

The storyline is still unfolding, but one takeaway already stands firm: life did not tiptoe onto the stage. It sprinted, armed with a full toolkit, ready to spar with viruses, and eager to reshape its surroundings – leaving every organism alive today carrying a hint of that four‑billion‑year‑old spark.
