Thanks! It even does fullscreen on mobile. Also surprisng how well the interface works for me on mobile. No hamburger menus needed to access basuc features, cause it is all there to be seen

Define short term, if we really want I`m quite sure we can dramatically increase pv power generation in a few years. There are vast swathes of little used space in sunny environments. But you do need to invest proper amounts of money, just

I wonder how the inventors of GPS would have responded if back in the early nineties you had suggested to just add a map of all the worlds high buildings to the GPS receiver.

> there are plenty of jobs where you absolutely will quit And so what if people refuse to do shitty jobs? Perhaps we as society can do without those jobs. And if we can't, we should value them more

I also work from home; I just asked around in the general chat. As I instinctively was already blaming out IT dept for breaking Firefox for some security theater reason I was glad I found the real issue quickly, otherwise I might just have

I'm thankful to work in a team. As my IT dept has a habit of breaking stuff with AV and other crap-ware, I already asked if anyone else was having problems with Firefox after 5 minutes of trying to figure out what was wrong, after whic

I am very interested in the "best-fit reduced palette of colors" approach, but then to create mosaics. Say you have lots tiles/beads/bricks/marbles whatever in a handful of colors (and not covering the entire color

Easy? No. Also highly unlikely and against every treaty etc. But bigger wars have been fought over energy security, so not entirely impossible. And with Russia, China and USA fighting injust wars left and right, it seems Europe is the only

Or we could just overthrow all their governments and make them vassal states. Sounds crazy? Well just take another good look at Saudi Arabia, crazier things happened in name of energy stability. If the choice is between unlimited renewable

If only it was a conscious choice... I fear significant climate has happened already, and even if we stop burning fossil fuels tomorrow will continue for a long time to come. Putting up a few km2 of solar in e.g. the Sahara now is surely le

Unfortunately cheese just requires a lot of milk in general. That's why the CO2 footprint of cheese is quite a bit higher than e.g. chicken meat [1] and only slightly better than red meat. I have become a vegetarian largely because of

I bet the Fukushima backup power system would have fit this explanation perfectly: > in addition to the grid connection, there are four twelve megawatt diesel generator stations spaced around each corner of the plant -- each with two gen

Those are pictures of a Cambridge roundabout, trying to imitate a Dutch roundabout. However except for very light traffic situations all (as far as I am aware) roundabouts newly constructed in the Netherlands are so called turbo-roundabouts

I managed to get halfway through level 2 on my phone. I think the screen is a 3x3 button grid. Center is 'action' for swords and potions.

I also don't have any numbers, so I can't comment on or how or low these are. But I do know that the circumstances in which these men are put to work is are more akin to slave labor then anyone can and should expect. And the condi

Of course you can't compare general mortality to mortality of people in the prime years of their life. I have personally seen the circumstances in which Indian men work and live in the Middle East and it is not pretty. Whatever comes o

Did you perhaps mean you changed the geometry instead of topology? Your comment got me wondering if you can change the topology without changing the schematics and I now think you can, as a schematic only defines the electrical connections

Perhaps, and then I hope they will be made obsolete as all the essential parts for making e-bikes are becoming commodities. 250W electric motors (max allowed in EU dor normal e-bikes) are not exactly rocket science. My jigsaw even has a 300

Until very recently Stromer was just about the only available e-Bike in the Netherlands that could reliably do to 45km/h,and thus quite popular. The retail prices for the 618/814/987 kWhr batteries are 1190/1650/199

But for anyone that can break the protection and manufacture a somewhat descent generic replacement battery the potential profit is enormous. I am sure some Chinese are well aware and hard at work on circumventing the DRM

by tda 5y ago
Meanwhile a 1kW/h battery for an e-bike can still retail for $2000 (thinking of the Stromer BQ983). Surprises me how long it takes for these prices to tickle down into normal consumer goods. But they will, the true revolution of electr

I can assure you surface compaction is still a thing. Never seen sheep's foot rollers, but I have seen really big square rollers. A square doesn't roll very well, but that is the point: every tumble it makes it crashes into to soi

nice idea, I think it is somewhat more in line with the keep it simple option, as I e.g. have no idea what a hilbert curve for an arbitrary size rectangle looks like. And you still get compression for x and y directions (though no run leng
