Given that catapults and muzzle loading cannon[0] are generally held to be exempt from DD status, I would estimate that a EM cannon of whichever variation don't count as destructive devices. 0: https://www.atf.gov/firea

The entire store is the warehouse. There’s nowhere for them to put it that’s easily accessible to the staff but not to customers, except maybe in a locked cage on the floor.

It was a 2020 model, but it was all discounts by GM. The 2020s(and 2021s) had a higher MSRP, so it was actually closer to only 50% of MSRP that I paid. The extra $2k I didn't finance was tax, reg, etc.

It can do more than that, especially if you've got the Euro-spec Hold State of Charge coded to be enabled. With HSOC, you just drive as normal and the scooter engine tries to keep the battery at the charge level you turned it on at. Yo

The mechanics are related with the Escape, but AFAIK, it's an entirely different body. The claim I've seen is that the regular hybrid version doesn't take up all of the battery space available, and that area is designated for

A problem with most approaches to having the ICE drive the wheels to is that you don't run the ICE at it's most efficient setting. You gain in the drivetrain, but lose in the actual combustion. Whether you lose more in one than yo

There's no particular reason why PHEVs have to be worse than ICE for cargo space. The new Ford Maverick is designed as a hybrid first, for example. I know they don't have a PHEV version yet, but it's expected to come as one i

Most hydrogen isn't from electrolysis of water. It's mostly made commercially from natural gas.

You can size the PHEV range extender engine to be much closer to the steady state power requirement, and tune it towards such as well. The BMW i3 uses a literal scooter engine for the range extension.

Is it that they're suffering a car shortage, or everyone else is, and they're getting cleaned out because that's where people can find cars?

It doesn't need to be in a couple minutes if the chargers are where people tend to stay for a while anyways. Stick a fast charger at McDonald's and Chipotle and Target and Safeway, then people will be able to charge while doing th

Generally speaking, yes, a larger battery with the same technology is more cells, not larger cells. But the larger battery will use less of each cell's capacity for a given distance driven. So it will cycle each battery less, comparati

That looks like a template instantiation to me. It's "<&[u8; CHUNK_LEN], NUM_INPUTS>" So the angle brackets are wrapping two arguments to the template.

This isn't against data warehouses, but just the cubes. Bringing everything into a single database for analysis is still required. But you extract load then transform, instead of extract transform load.

I would argue that there's a reason for the general size of military formations: a change of size of about half an order of magnitude per level. Much more than that for sub ordinate organizations masks it difficult to know what those o

Unsurprisingly, 150kW appears to be becoming the standard for 400V architecture. 36kW chargers don't exist. Fast chargers are proliferating along major routes. The only major area that doesn't have regularly spaced fast chargers i

CFAA now is about violating technical controls, not policy controls. If policy says "Don't look at HR data", but nothing technically stops you from looking, it's not a CFAA violation to look.

240 volt split phase land, thank you. We can have 240V 3 phase, but that's not common in homes, and the standard J1772 plug doesn't support more than a single phase. I mean, yeah, cost cutting manuever, but it's a sensible on

Small EVs are averaging around 3.5-4 mi/kWh. 60 miles would therefore be around 18kWh. You're postulating a mere 36 kW charger there. We actually have 150 kW chargers as being common, with 350 kW being reasonably often seen. That

Doubtful most places will have 22kW AC chargers. Most cars won't be able to accept that much AC. That's a 120A circuit by itself on the grid side, and most cars max out at 40A or less right now, because it's more power than t

It won't be when states implement new ICE vehicle bans. If you can't register a new ICE vehicle in CA or MA, then you won't look at places where you can't charge your EV at home. Because you're going to be buying a

Minimum charge speed on my EV is 8A on 120V. And, I'm frequently using it on 120V, because my wife is normally hogging the 240V charger.

Ammonia is probably better. Easier to liquify, and much more dense, even if not as much energy per kg. It's admittedly somewhat toxic, but hydrogen is also somewhat explosive when mixed with air.

On average, it's like 800W. My current home charger and cars support up to 7.7 kW. It's something like 4 hours to go from near empty to full for one, and about twice that for the other one (very different sized batteries). But wha

I suppose a subset of 1 is: failure to consider stresses during construction, and only doing the calculations on the final product (FIU pedestrian bridge failure).

Russia actually only allows one airline per country to overfly, generally[1]. So if Aer Lingus already has the concession, Ryanair can't even pay. Also, doesn't really solve this because Russia wouldn't have an issue doing ex

I wouldn't necessarily be able to say whether it'd be smaller, but it'd probably work. It works due to the air getting entrained in the liquid as it increases in pressure. So there shouldn't be a requirement that the air

Do you have decimal degrees or degrees minutes second? Did you remember the "-" sign? Is Lat and Lon in the right order? Thus, geocoding, like MGRS or Plus Code.

Ambiguity: Did I forget the N/S? Is it supposed to be +/-? Did I get Lat and Lon flipped? Is it decimal degrees or degrees minutes seconds? The decimal degrees vs DMS is the big one, by the way. Especially since it's not alwa
