False. The existing months were just renamed after them. Rather, they added new months to the front of the year (January and February).

If the desired location for this is a car, then a few years of life that requires half disassembly of a motor isn’t going to work.

Range extender was definitely a requirement when I got mine in ‘19. But that’s because I did not have reliable charging available in the area. It also came in handy for a bad road …

I got panels last year because I’m pretty confident that the majority of the cost of putting panels on my roof is the stuff besides the actual panels. So pricing won’t go down much…

Very much depends on the rating. A residential panel is something like 65”x40”. A commercial sized panel is something like 80”x40”. The cell size is relatively constant, but the bi…

It’s not claiming: you can’t have an automotive paint shop. It’s claiming you can’t start a new paint shop. Specifically, if you don’t have one for your car manufacturing line alre…

I promise there is not an OBD2 port inside the headlights of cars. There is CANBUS to the headlights, but that is not a OBD2 port. And more securely designed cars can put that in a…

More advanced EVSEs are capable of adjusting the power delivered based on the power available. It does require a sensor on the supply cables to determine how much power is being us…

Quick sort usually uses something like insertion sort when the number of items is low, because the constants are better at low n, even if O(n) isn’t as good.

The third row is just planned. They do not have any publicly available views of it, and the currently non-removable back glass of the prototypes inhibit actually installing and usi…

The vast majority of tractor trailers in Europe are cab over designs. There’s definitely less room between the bumper and the driver’s legs in those than in any standard pickup tru…

I don’t think slate has a four door option. It’s still two door, but with a rear seat that you can clamber into after pushing the front seat forward.

Do you have power at the lake house? Then you have charging infrastructure. Also, why are you towing the boat to and from the lake house? And again, which new production pickup fit…

You think a crumple zone isn’t required by current FMVSS, which they are designing against? That is, in fact, what they referred to with “ structural technology”.

No pickup will do that. Even crew cab pickups normally max out at 5 people (4 passengers), because there is no bench seat up front anymore. Even a Ford Maverick is $30k or so, and …

Important note: if you’ve failed a medical, you’re no longer eligible for a light sport license. This is what’s killed Xyla Foxlin’s flying career: her medical was revoked.

That includes stuff like diamond grit. You don’t care about the color or clarity of grit. Tenth of a carat on up? You care about that for jewelry use. And that translates into bett…

What you need for running a site that people might not like: 1. Your own servers 2. Your own network 3. Your own CDN 4. Your own payment processor Step 4 gets you thrown in jail fo…

What book?

Google says: no, the US did not stop sharing weather data. Communication isn’t automated weather data sharing. The data never stopped. Again, citation needed.

> for example, the US has stopped sharing weather data with canada. Citation needed. Most weather data from NWS is required by treaty to be disseminated through WMO compliant metho…

10 gallons of water is like 80 pounds of snow. Even with the relative density, 80 pounds of snow isn’t going to do much for avalanche.

There’s also the shipping problem: it’s actually cheaper to ship from overseas than the US, due to the Jones Act. There’s more ships available to go from East Asia than from Califo…

Doubt: the APQ-181 radar on the B-2 is a Ku band radar, about 15 GHz. Tamara is about 1 GHz. This is entirely incompatible frequency ranges. Also, the APQ-181 is a LPI radar, which…

Most of the aggressiveness of a toy rocket is the smaller length. Orbital class rockets are literally the size of skyscrapers.
