The 'range' quoted for all electric vehicles tend to be rather fantasy-driven. In the old days, you have mpg at 30mph / 56mph / 70mph, and if you drove your car mainly at these speeds you'd see generally something similar to what was advertised, given correct tyre pressures and without excessive lo...

Its a class action. The named person on the filing is just the named plaintiff. From what i gather for a class action to be filed there has to be at least 40 people signed up. The filing states it is representing all owners of a tesla in the state of California. I thought it could be done, if it is...

I can't read that article, but have seen others on the subject. I recall the claimant saying that the car is clocking up 72 miles on a 20 mile trip, and this is because of the predictive algorithm used by Tesla for estimating range covered ......... :facepalm: That should equate to about three and ...

I think there's a similar idea, but more complex, of launching a sunshade/reflector into space, so as to reduce the amount of sunshine/heat reaching the Earth. In that case I think the idea is to have the shade travel across the oceans, not land.

Quick news update on the foster fails from last Sep/Oct: Toby has finally reached(ish) his target weight of 34kg ....... or to be a little more honest, he's reached 34.9kg, but it starts with 34 finally. He was 42kg when he arrived, and was one long large curve, but now has many curves. https://i.po...

Very true, plus I thought the author's BTL comment was very interesting and the image he added: And China hasn't caught up to the USA in total emissions over time, not even close. Or Europe for that matter. Given that its emissions are going to be cut much faster than either the USA's or Europe's, i...

I was wondering why DC temps shoot up on my inverter when pushing the DC hard: https://i.postimg.cc/nC7GHgWy/PXL-20250420-085805226.jpg :cat-shock: Scissors out and now fan suddenly works miraculously now that a cable tie isn't jammed between it stopping it working!! :evil: Damn, that must have bee...

Are you agreeing with MikeNowak - who seems to be saying that scaling this up won't work because (if I understood it right) large volume storage of liquid air demands such high pressure that the container becomes either unbuildable or disproportionately expensive? If that's so it's a pity, as it lo...

Don't we have (or had) loads of air liquification and distillation plants around the UK...? I'm sure I have seen lorries of liquid N 2 on the road and delivering to scientific/research facilities - and liquid oxygen is also a regular thing. I have even done jobs on sites where other people have bro...
