Exactly. The vast majority of the launching torque comes from the electric motor, even if there is no battery at all.

What do you imagine happens if the battery is low and the car wants to start from a stop? The engine can't shift down to first so it would just stall out if you tried to use it to drive the driveshaft directly, and there's no othe

by arijun 2mo ago
You don't do a full climb after a go-around, so the heights are not equal, and the mass is less since you've expended fuel. You also retain some kinetic energy but I assume that is closer to a negligible effect. Also, PE = mgh is

Sorry, I meant in the low speed, high acceleration regime (maybe easily confounded with takeoff?). There the engine will turn one motor to generate electricity, which will then power the second motor, like a series hybrid.

> you're carrying all that dead weight for the rest of the flight If you're recharging the batteries for extra go-arounds during landing, they are as dead weight as the fuel you would otherwise reserve for that purpose. And if

The Prius is in series, or something like it.

It cannot do dynamic filtering [1]. Another big one I forgot about is no CNAME uncloaking. Don't get me wrong, uBOL is still a great add on, it's just not possible to do everything you could with the manifest v2 version. [1] http

It is when compared to Firefox. Safari and now Google claim that it's for security, as the newer interfaces expose way less attack surface for malicious add-ons. I think that it's true that it does improve security, although I&#x2

I think the limitations are similar to the manifest v3 issues that the Chrome version has. Specifically, you (the ad blocker) send the browser a list of sites to block, instead you blocking them yourself. That means it's way harder to

The end result[1] looks quite impressive! The animation feels like it's quite high quality--very smooth. However, some things seem off: bad lip sync, minor animation errors, discontinuous scene-to-scene feel. Given that these are suppo

Unless I’m misunderstanding it wrong, any kind of porn would pass the first two prongs of the Miller test: it’s for purient purposes and it has depictions of sexual acts. As for the third prong, I’m sure some porn out there has literary mer

I don't think it has? https://lemmy.world/instances lists lemmy.ml under "linked instances", and not under "blocked instances."

What? When sunset is at 5pm you want to lock the elderly up in their homes? What about those that have trouble sleeping, like many do? Or those that wake up before sunrise? This is the kind of thinking that leads to totally inaccessible cit

Do they actually have net positive income (excluding research, I guess)? I assumed no but I’ve never seen number one way or another.

From the comment that started this deviation: > Wouldn't it be more reasonable to just expect people who want to walk places in the dead of night to wear a headlamp?

by arijun 3mo ago
Because 1) Humans night vision is significantly worse than your regular vision. Low light would cause more accidents, eg. 2) The elderly have pretty terrible night vision. Your idea would exclude them from half the day.

Yeah lemmy is just too full of tankies for me. I mean, reddit was full of half baked political takes, but at least they didn't spout apologia for North Korea.

I mean, if you're using one of the $200/month plans, you'd recoup the cost in a year or two.

Yeah, their sizzle reel is pretty incredible. I wish they had a hyperlinked version of the credits, so many clips I would want to see the whole source for.

Yeah it was a little tongue-in-cheek--I think the estimate I saw was over $100M for bun, which would have been enough to pay Donald Knuth to rewrite Claude Code, let alone AI.
