I know I posted about this a couple months ago, but I never did follow up - By God It Does work!
You have to apply a little force so that the center breaks free, but it works
All these years, and learning new things…😂

Just did very approximate calculations; with 10g of lithium per drone*, and assuming the Russian and Ukrainian drone efforts consume 5m units a year**, that'd be ~50 tons of lithium deposited into the environment per year, mostly within, let's say, 50km of the grey zone***. It's only about $20,000 / ton****, which means $1m of metal*****.
So to answer my own silly question: no, it won't be economically viable to scalp the top few inches of topsoil and extract the lithiu…

@… my dad couldn’t cook indoors to save his life, but I have to admit he did a decent job on the grill. My mother was an awful cook, bland food, and rarely any fresh vegetables (most of them came from cans).
I had to take over cooking duties at the ripe age of 14, escaped the daily grind by going to work at a McDonalds at 16, and as a result since learned t…

Abstract: While speech Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at conventional tasks like basic speech recognition, they lack fine-grained, multi-dimensional perception. This deficiency is evident in their struggle to disentangle complex features like micro-acoustic cues, acoustic scenes, and paralinguistic signals. This resulting incomplete comprehension of real-world speech fundamentally bottlenecks the development of perceptive and empathetic next-generation speech systems. At its core, this persistent perceptual limitation primarily stems from three interacting factors: scarce high-quality expressive data, absent fine-grained modeling for multi-dimensional attributes, and reliance on restricted coverage, coarse-grained benchmarks. We address these challenges through three pillars: First, our robust data curation pipeline resolves complex acoustic environments and long-audio timestamp alignment challenges to extract a high-quality spontaneous speech corpus from audiovisual sources. Second, we construct FMSU-Bench, a pioneering benchmark covering 14 speech attribute dimensions to rigorously assess the fine-grained, multi-dimensional speech understanding capabilities of current models. Third, empowered by our curated corpus, we introduce FM-Speech. Driven by a decoupled attribute modeling and progressive curriculum fine-tuning framework, it substantially elevates fine-grained, multi-dimensional acoustic perception. Extensive evaluations on FMSU-Bench reveal that current speech LLMs still require significant improvement in multi-dimensional, fine-grained understanding. In contrast, FM-Speech substantially outperforms current open-source models, establishing a robust paradigm for real-world speech understanding.
