The energy used to achieve altitude is then saved in the descent stage. So that’s not an issue for aircraft, regardless of how they’re powered. This is why every flight you’ve ever been on climbs to cruise altitude as fast as possible. High

It’s taken thirty years for lithium batteries to double in energy density, and the rate of increase has tapered off recently.

An aircraft like this can be used two or three times a day, while spending the rest of the time charging. A piston or turbine powered aircraft can run all day.

More importantly, take note of: > Munich Local Court has held that Local Court in Germany is the equivalent of the Magistrates Court in the UK or Australia. Definitely not the arbiter of ultimate truth.

There are no natural rights. Only rights you’re willing to kill to protect. Or to force someone else to kill to protect for you.

Further to your point: Rights only exist up until the point someone is willing to trample them. Then you’ve got to be willing to fight for them. At which point everyone’s rights go straight out the window.

Gasoline or diesel fires can be extinguished. Lithium ion battery fires less so. Surly you don’t mean to imply that a sufficiently large lithium ion battery fire couldn’t burn down a bridge?

That’s a hyper local measurement, and temperature dependant. You’d sure notice if the air in your kitchen was swooshing around at 671 miles per hour.

That’s a good point, and obvious now you point it out. On the other hand, when water turns into steam at standard atmospheric pressure, it expands in volume by about 1,700 times. Whereas the gas in your stove is already a vapour, mostly met

Yeah, aren’t the EV tyre’s compounded differently in some way to account for the extra weight? If the weight on each wheel is greater I’d have assumed the tyre would need to be harder, for the same performance. I would have assumed that wou

A reasonable compromise is achieved by an air purifier that has the outlet on top because it’s blowing the filtered air well away from the inlet side and generally circulates the air in the room. I used to work in the cleanest room in the s

What do you want it to do? I’ve used it, it works. The handful of other things I’ve used that do the same thing or something similar are roughly the same. All attempts at making the UI look better invariably obfuscated tools.
