You just literally said (interpretive paraphrasing), “I like big butts and I cannot lie”

I just shake the water to carbonation using a stainless steel 2 gallon tank with a tap I keep in the fridge.

I use a squeeze of lime in my glass before adding the water and it’s great!

Coffee has more caffeine than tea, but tea has more caffeine than coffee .

This is true because we speak of the ingredient and the drink using the same word each.

Thanks for pointing that out so I didn’t have to.

What’s the alternative? Waterfail?

Yeah because business requirements and technology is changing at an ever slower rate…

My ICQ ID was a rather low number…

If your dome light isn’t an LED, then you should replace it with one. It won’t completely fix your problem but it will give you 9 to 10 times longer to catch it.

There’s really no reason that every car doesn’t have a voltage cut off to protect the battery such that it can still start. Additionally, if they just included a super capacitor then even with a heavily discharged battery, it could charge up the super capacitor to then start the car.

But if we went around doing smart stuff like that then we could potentially wreck the entire lead acid battery industry and that would just be awful…

I recently saw it reported that Crypto was 2% of US electric use.

That’s a whole lot of wasted processing, silicon, heat and energy.

Not anymore.Age.

When I was a kid I hated going to the city art museum because all the humidity and temperature control devices emitted this awful high frequency noise that made me nauseated.

I can’t hear the “mosquito” pitch noise emitters used to deter teenage loitering in some cities anymore. I kept that longer than I thought I would.

I can’t come more than 20 times anymore. What do I do with the other hour and a half of battery time?

It’s made from sodium silicate… Which is made from sand.

Class action lawsuit for contract violations

If they had, the merger would have still happened. That’s an awful opinion and you should be embarrassed but I expect instead you’ll double down.

But of a slippery slope. What else do we need to encode?

A barcode doesn’t have enough bits to be unique and also contain useful information. It’s just a unique identifier that can be used to look up a wide variety of information.

For bolts, it could be metal grade, thread pitch, load ratings, manufacturer info etc

Someone complained about… Staplers?

I haven’t needed a stapler at work in tech for uh…at least 5 years.

It’s almost as if deregulation of the energy industry was a bad move…

I think hybrids need to be built like EVs with on board range extender generators. I believe the Volt was that way but if you had enough battery to cover 120 miles full EV with plug-in recharge most of the time it would be full EV. Long trip? Generator kicks on at mile 100 and takes you an absurd distance.

The latest Toyota hybrids are pretty great but they need competition. Sadly the Volt died.

Kia/Hyundai/Ford/Audi should make “Range extender” versions trading half the battery pack for generator and fuel weights to up the pressure.

Full EV might not be great for long trips, but full ICE is silly compared to a hybrid.

Make the F-150 standard truck get 40mpg on gasoline on trips, EV around town and you have a winner.

LiFePo batteries are pretty safe and last a long time. The just need a heated blanket for sub freezing to charge. There’s some videos showing puncture resistance/fire resistance between battery types. Neat stuff.

Will Prowse has one I think

Me too. And their revolutionary hydrogen car that everyone will turn to by the year yesterday

The same Toyota that declared that electric vehicles were a non-starter and that hydrogen vehicles were the future?

I think hydrogen will be in the future, but not for a while. Toyota is having to make lots of promises to make up for Kia and Hyundai eating their lunch.

You’re right. As a Tesla owner there’s every reason to want the power, range, and maybe a couple of the features but with tangible controls etc

The Kia/Hyundai offerings are probably your closest bet.

I almost never use the assists. I don’t mind the idea that if the computer sees a looming impact it will brake for me though.
