I am not concerned about poor rural people. They do not have internet because it is a bad business decision to build a network where people cannot afford to pay for it or are culturally opposed to new things. I have economically escaped my destined upbringing so can they. Objectivism dictates...

While both based on chemistry, combustion scales very differently than semiconductors. We hit the wall on chemical explosives with Octanitrocubane in the 1999. I remember reading about a "nearly perfectly balanced" chemical explosive in popular science in the early 2000s but according to...

Before you employ too many fallacies to combat the facts Jason presents, please realize the majority of his content is ice focused. Here is one of my recent favorites: The plateau over the last 20 years comes from increased efficiency requirements in consumer and commercial goods. We stop...

Too bad no one will listen unless it is on Faux News.

Under budget compared to the majority of builds on this forum and that is before you factor in 5-year COA for even more savings. If you're still rent bound instead of a homeowner you should not responsibly be buying a $50,000 bronco or any Tesla. In my experience the same people that are leasing...

.1oz of U-235 fission = 1 ton of coal combustion. Spent fuel storage will not be an issue this century and it can be fed into a fast breeder reactor to produce more fuel instead of storing it.

Vitreous infusion. Hanford has the capability to store the waste in glass rods for stable storage under yucca mountain which is a complete and ready to operate facility being blocked by legislation. Instead voters would prefer it being stored in their backyard in degrading water tanks onsite.

1% allowable leak rate of fly ash is still releasing more radiation than nuclear power at 0%

You sure are quick to abandon hyperbole when it is used against you. I am more used to nuclear which I prefer for its safety in comparison to coal. Also as a submariner I know there are no coal-fired platforms in use for national defense. Why? Coal sucks. The energy density of fossil fuels is...

You can git the hell out this thread wit yer science! /s

A perfect example of the conditioned ignorance of rural Americans. Why would you be proud to work for an unlivable wage in a remote coal town? MURICA! Do not worry about foreign goods at the company store, it is fully stocked with a limited array of American goods and you are not allowed to...

First, I doubt that is getting to the trailhead. Second, I imagine they intend to use a type of PV cell that is restricted to flat surfaces. Flexible solar is not as efficient so it is a good thing the bed cover on a CT is flat and angled toward the sun if parking permits. Elon says 15 miles a...

That is why I want a cybertruck with the extendable solar array. I do not know of any vehicles that refuel themselves at the trailhead while I am hiking.

33.7 kWh in a gallon of gas. Not sure about you but I do not know of any vehicles with 2 gallon fuel tanks going over 300 miles on a fill. Super chargers only take that long if you want to top off the battery to >90%. Also the metric for a home charger is overnight. The optional Tesla wall...

I think I like that but I would have to see it depending on the color. My bias against de-badging comes from the Audi community. I still love everything from VAG but I am not sad about leaving the community.

Why would you? I always assume de-badged vehicles are base model posers. That they often come with smoked lights and other d-bag style additions does not help. Who needs chrome windshield wiper covers?

That is a terrible, out of date click bait article. It predates December and the B&P updates. It also claims that squatch adds the Bilstein dampers to the badlands. The only way to compare is B&P as close as possible to each other then compare summary sheets.

Pretty sure he is compensating for growth that never happened.

Do you piss while shitting? If so do you shit standing up?
