Sure, but so does everything, and a typical user won’t really see chipping unless they bang it really hard against the tough surface in a weird way

My washing machine also makes a stupid chime melody thing. A microphone that listens for it would also be a simple way to do it.

In my opinion, diamonds really are the best jewel for a engagement ring. They are really the only gem that will really never chip, fade, or cloud over time. Alternatives like moissanite are great, don’t get me wrong, but they’re just not qu

How do San Francisco homes get heat? As I understand it, it gets cool enough in SF to require heating a lot of the time. If gas is banned, a lot of people switch from gas to electric heat? Straining an already strained grid?

I had a hybrid electric heat pump water heater, and I didn’t like that it made my house cold in the winter. In winter I’d switch to purely resistive mode. Later on, I moved into a house with a gas water heater and at least for me the gas op

Cloud is kinda the default now. Most Americans just take pictures with their iPhones and it ends up in icloud.

Yes, and no. Even if dad can give the baby mom‘s pumped breastmilk, Mom still needs to pump more to keep the supply up and avoid pain. So mom has to wake up anyway.

As a counterpoint, I am a stay at home parent right now because I’m on paternity leave and it is by far the best time I’ve ever had in my life

Energy and thrust are not equivalent. There’s hardly any limit to how much energy you can generate in space (for example using a nuclear reactor), but fuel is the limiting factor.

is prasm the best metric though? It doesn’t take into account costs, for example, airlines have gotten more efficient over the years with planes like the 737 max so you can make more profit off of less revenue. Likewise, non-passenger reven

When I travel, I often stay in rentals that have laundry machines, because it’s so much easier just to pack light and do laundry every couple of days. I’m also not against packing light with the intention of going shopping if I need somethi

This is why I love it when airlines charge for carry-on bags, like spirit does. Everyone just has a teeny little backpack. Getting on and off is a breeze.

I don’t know if there’s really that much time overhead. If I’m spending $200 on that rail ticket, I’m gonna arrive at the train station early to account for any issues I have getting there, just like an airport. I find it a little frustrati

Why did they even want nuclear energy to begin with? A country so wildly fossil fuel rich as Iran has no incentive to produce expensive nuclear energy..

by thehappypm 1y ago
Also, Iran is a major major oil producer. They don’t really need nuclear power, do they?

Oh no, there are tons of non-mag Republicans out there. They’re all over the place. Honestly, most of the Senate.

BEVs will become more popular (in my prediction) because they are simpler than diesel, and are self-contained unlike electric trains that depend on external wire systems working, so they will be more reliable.
112.
by thehappypm 1y ago
They are addressing the problem of cost by 1) using BEVs to reduce overhead wire cost, 2) using tighter turn radii to reduce retrofitting needs, and 3) reducing the depth needed to avoid costly subservice infrastructure disruption

I assume 56 is the capacity that they advertise but people will cram in like sardines when it’s rush hour

False. First of all it's not just so easy to destroy infrastructure in a way that can't be rebuilt quickly; thousands of miles of train tracks would be difficult to destroy. This is happening all over Ukraine. Second, blowing up y

Depends where you travel. If you like to ski in Vermont, you lose a lot of range to cold, and there aren’t a lot of superchargers.

Not everyone wants an EV, especially in America. Unless EV’s can jump to 500 mile range and ubiquitous five minute charging, a lot of people are just gonna want a hybrid.
