  • How many times do I have to see this fuckin "chained to a chair" bullshit copy pasted around here šŸ˜‚

  • Search Google for Kwajalein Jobs. It's an Atoll in the Marshall Islands that hosts a US military installation, however there is no need to be in the military to work there. I do work there as a contractor for a week every year or two and it sure reminds me of the summer camp I used to work at.

  • This thing is going to have like a minute and a half worth of battery life.

  • This is what happens when you let the financial dicks push out the engineering dicks. Plain and simple.

  • The American car companies haven't exactly been stellar with regards to quality, reliability, and safety lately either.

  • They completely whiffed on the most important and obvious part. That whole article could be replaced by the words "THEY'RE TOO DAMN EXPENSIVE".

  • Ahh yes, Big Bend, the tiny town where businesses fly "FUCK JOE BIDEN" flags. Surely this is place for adults with reasonable opinions.

  • Let's hope this slow drips into using that trump jet to fly these ballots.

  • Last time this happened they said they don't interfere in state election law. Surely they wouldn't change their minds now that it's a liberal state SC ruling would they...?

  • Hasn't the uk been running gas cooled reactors sine the 70s?

  • Ehhhh Westinghouse bankrupted Westinghouse. They decided they were going to cut Bechtel out of the project and build VC summer by themselves. Pocketing the "savings". Problem is, the way things had worked for decades before is Westinghouse does the design and Bechtel does the construction. They couldn't cut it on their own and it destroyed the company. They let the financial dinks speak louder than the engineers and payed for it dearly.

    There's a chance things would have gone much different if they didn't try to take on a work scope completely out of their league.

  • With John Stewart as VP. He said he doesn't want to be president but VP? Let's fuckin goooo

  • Yeah I mean at the end of the day the goal is still "make water hot to turn spinny thing with steam".

  • I have had a handful of that generation golf over the years that I have modified. It would be absurdly simple to drop an electric motor into that thing if the right kit existed.

  • This big time. Hot takes and spicy tweets don't mean dick if you don't know how to translate them into effective policy.

  • Yes but that's 10s of thousand volts AC power at a reasonable current. We're talking DC at a couple hundred volts and an extremely high current.

  • Don't get me wrong, I'm all for this but I remember reading a comment on here a while back saying that to get that kind of energy jammed into a battery that quickly you'd need a cable as thick as a telephone pole to keep it from glowing like a toaster coil.
