Early AC electrification systems in the US were typically 25Hz, not 16.7Hz. Parts of the northeast corridor still use 25Hz electrification.

Except they did. Prop 1A does specifically mentions the corridors that need to be built, including the cities that need to be served in section 2704.04 subsection (b)(3).

> Since then crime in SF has absolutely exploded. This is sort of misleading. Burglaries, motor vehicle thefts, and homicides went up, but all other crimes went down. Specifically in the case of homicides, there were 7 more compared to 2

I feel like the simpler explanation here is that these movies did not have a coherent story and had poor character development, not that they were the victims of "being too woke" or whatever the current most popular explanation th

I'm not sure how section 230 bypasses due process. If a social media site removes something you posted, your first amendment rights have not been violated. The first amendment only protects you from being censored by the government. It

It's flown a total of 3 times, including the demo flight. Besides the demo it's flown one commercial payload and one flight for the DoD.

Since the atmosphere of Mars is 1% the pressure of Earth's, even very high velocity wind would have little energy behind it.

GORM is nice for beginners because it's pretty easy to get started with, but in my experience starts to fall apart when you need to do anything more complex or start to scale up. I've had good experiences with SQLBoiler [0] on the

130 Republicans in the House voted to overturn two states' election results, not to mention he has an undeniable popular following. I seriously doubt he would have trouble with finding support with a lot of people if he had taken adva

In terms of hardware, they're running on AMD x86 CPUs. AFAIK there isn't anything special about them, other than having a wider memory bus (they use GDDR5 as opposed to DDR4).

And the current estimated cost of that hsr system exceeds the estimated cost of the entire 520 mi (840 km) phase 1 system in California. Imagine scaling the cost of a similar design to travel the distance from SF to LA, ignoring the fact th

If you count Gilroy as close to Santa Cruz and Monterrey, then sure. But the planned line does take a hard east turn through the Pacheco pass into the central valley south of Gilroy.

That's because they mostly avoided mountains on their high speed routes. The Tokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen mostly follow the coastline and the Tohoku Shinkansen mostly goes through a valley. There are lines that do bore through mountain

Unless you wanted to build an HSR line through a long coastal mountain range most of way from SF to LA further driving up the cost, having it go the majority of the distance through a relatively flat valley definitely has its benefits. I do

My university (UC Riverside) does this. I haven't taken that course specifically as it's not required for my major, so I can't speak to any specifics.

The Ryzen 5 1600 and 1600x have two CCX modules with 3 cores each (one core disabled on each CCX). So it wouldn't be impossible for AMD to make a 14 core part.

Thunderbolt 3 ports are closer to PCIe 3.0 x4, not x8. Regardless it won't cause a huge performance hit depending on your workload (about 5-10% slower in gaming benchmarks). But YMMV with applications that require more bandwidth.

There's a Windows Phone app. The Windows app is UWP and it looks like it runs on Windows Phone (from the screenshots provided in the Windows Store). For whatever reason it's named Project Cheshire and not Microsoft To-Do in the st

Wiki2 is a similar idea [1], but keeps the general feel of Wikipedia. IMO, it does a better job of managing media (images, video, etc.) than vanilla Wikipedia. [1] https://en.wiki2.org/

I don't think it disables WebRTC, per se. I think uBlock prevents WebRTC applications from leaking your IP. Hangouts still works with WebRTC leaking disabled through uBlock, so that leads me to believe that's what's going on.

The company I work at has gotten around these restrictions with AODocs. It adds a lot of enterprise features Drive is missing (workflow setup, version control, etc.). It works well for us, but it's still by no means a perfect solution.

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. Then again, some tools don't seem to work for some inexplicable reason (ex screen).

While it's not "plug-and-play" like Time Capsule, Crashplan is pretty good. I've been using it for about a year now and so far its been working flawlessly for me. All my Windows boxes get backed up daily to my Synology N
