- Comment on Data centers get tax breaks. Not you though. 1 week ago:
This may be sales tax breaks for things purchased by the datacenter? no sales tax on millions of dollars of computing and cooling is a huge amount…
- Comment on Why do unannounced games keep “leaking” through Korea’s rating site? It turns out there’s a legal issue that makes it almost impossible to avoid 1 week ago:
Censoring certain content based on country is super common in video games, so early submission may give more time to appeal or censor stuff to meet their desired rating. Or just market to a different rating if they’d prefer.

Yeah idk why they painted a bicycle on the Amazon Parking Lane

A kettle through a USB outlet? USB Type C PD tops out at like 200 W or so…
I feel like it makes more sense to have been running off a conventional 120V outlet which some minivans have
- Comment on that's some fucking aerodynamics bro 3 weeks ago:
A roll of Flex Tape® would fit in there, you could then tape the holes up to improve aerodynamics!

I’m thinking it’s the cylinder
- Comment on guys would this work? 2 months ago:
It shouldn’t; the USB wall plug will provide 5 V which powers the dongle, but it’ll just be idle since there’s no computer communicating with it over USB.

Well, Actually: Yes, the result of the Mend Buttcrack spell would be an acquired anorectal malformation, for which there are several surgical repairs. I don’t think those account for loose angry wizards though, so long-term effects may be uncertain.

There’s a few things (I am an engineer, though not nuclear): 1) Efficiencies don’t necessarily stack like that. For boiling water you’re dependent on kinetic energy as heat. I’m not familiar with running plasma through magnetic fields for power generation, but if you lose thermal energy, your overall efficiency may be worse. 2) In power generation, reliability is obviously extremely important, and the nuclear industry is highly risk-averse. So doing something in a known, tested way is preferable. Any downtime is extremely expensive if things break, since it may be gigawatts of power you’re not selling. 3) Big magnets and handling highly energetic plasma are both really expensive. Steam turbines and generators have existing supply chains since we use them everywhere. I think cost is a big part, since the people building power plants want to make their money back sooner, so may not want to pay millions to billions more for a few percent efficiency gain.

False, monorails are a form of public transit which is inherently COMMUNIST and must be eliminated (except for spectacle, we have them in Las Vegas and Disney)

- Comment on Aerodynamics of Saddam Hussein 2 months ago:
“What are the Reynolds and Mach numbers for the airflow through the rubble?”
“OK, surely he’s got temperature and pressure measurements there?”
“He did provide a CAD model of the bunker, right?”
“Does anyone have a miniature Saddam Hussein for wind tunnel testing to validate our CFD model?”

- Comment on How does this thing work? (wrong answers only) 4 months ago:
When air is warm, it rises. As the air attaches to the blades, the air is tricked into accepting a new definition of “up” which rotates with the blades, endlessly propelling them.
As that air cools, warmer air is drawn in and entrapped, continuing the cycle.
