- Comment on guys would this work? 4 days 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)

“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) 1 month 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.

“Helico” sounds like it could be a delightfully antiquated-sounding clipping of helicopter. Perhaps some Victorian gentleman is ushering you into the helico.
It would at least be interesting if one was writing a similar world, but wanted more unique language.
“Get in the ‘pter” is a bit more clumsy though.
- Comment on Chocolite 2 months ago:
The modern ones are cast, but last time I checked still require some force to break the slices off their central sprue / core.
What were the older ones you’re referring to if they weren’t cast like that? Now I am curious lol. - Comment on Chocolite 2 months ago:
Yep, it’s break-apart slices of chocolate. You knock it on a table and they separate. I used to like them, and either I can’t find the brand I used to get or my tastes have changed, because the ones I have tried in the past few years just aren’t good.
(I do like orange + chocolate still, in a chocolate bar!)

unfortunately as far as I know RCS is closed down. only Google messages on android and iMessage on iOS support it (maybe some other proprietary options, but no FOSS options).
- Comment on My Car Is Becoming a Brick: EVs are poised to age like smartphones. 4 months ago:
yeah, you can’t really buy a car that doesn’t have mobile data for “telemetry” (your driving data is sold to insurance companies)
even base trims get some phone app stuff, meaning there’s the ability to execute commands on the car. so, if they really wanted, there’s nothing stopping automakers from bricking your car, gas or EV, because they feel like it.
yipee…
