Honest question to know how others think. It doesn't really matter, does it? The rate of evaporation is irrelevant to the problem. Mr. Potato could have waited a year, or dried them on the Uyuni salt plains. Why do you care? Would this

The difference between weight and mass is domain specific to physics. I actually get annoyed at people who are pedantic about these things. Precision is important in some conversations, but just elitist in other. Anyway, the term “weight” t

I think the “Not Withstanding Clause” is the funniest bit of Chretien’s (the real author) constitution.

Thats a very dishonest history of the rights of Canadians derived as subjects to her Majesty. And a very dishonest portrayal of the October Crisis, a time when English Canada was shocked that PET would go so far to stop the FLQ. A journo

“My point is that a low center of gravity and higher downforces are positive influences on a car.“ You dont add mass just to lower CoM. And downforce from added mass sucks: the downforce, Fn = mg, from weight cancels out Slam on the break

… he literally wrote Columb’s expression for frictional forces. Then pointed out that that expression overstates the amount of traction that weight gives you What rules of physics do you propose we use? Ones where dead weight makes you fast

Alfa Romeo Quadriglio, 7:32 Theres also a few M3 reports, but I cant tell which ones are stock https://www.alvolante.it/news/alfa-romeo-giulia-quadrifoglio... Also, consider that the weight penalty for an EV four door

Simulator appears to be quite the qualifier. Try doing it with G-forces ripping you off your seat and with your life on the line. Lauda almost killed himself there. Toto Wolf almost killed himself there. Are you sure you know the Nordschlie

By being spectacularly dangerous for road use. A race tire is 1. slick Even the slightest moisture will result in hydroplaning and loss of control. Today’s F1 race was a good example of how the cars go from behaving like their on rails gl

You compared an ID.4 to a LeMans car. Neither of them are hypercar or supercars. Theyre purpose built racecars. “ The point is battery electric propulsion is clearly in the realm of supercars today. Here's an example:” No, they dont. T

A single sensor by the exhaust fan would be an excellent proxy for the T anywhere in the laptop. The really hot stuff have sensors themselves, so if anything else is hot it will be revealed in the exhaust

Why should I care if the CCP have the theoretical ability to censor what I watch, when Twitter, FB and friends actively do? It seems I should be more concerned about the proximate threat.

That doesnt sound right. I’m sure I eat, on average, at least 6 oz/ day. I estimate I eat anywhere between 50-100 kg/ year or somewhere between 5-10 oz a day. Probably closer to around 7. Or about three times your estimate.

Some places have no need for heating or cooling. Like my rental in Santa Barbara.

Ya, the US has fixed 30 year rates. Interest rates are higher going from a 15 year to a 30 year to price in some of the risk to the bank. The difference every time I bought a house was about 1%
