Many motorcycles didn't come with cats in the 2000s, combined with lots of high strung 600s running massive valve overlap. But the modern class of commuter bike has got to be pretty good. Drag coefficient is poor but they're also

Be interested to know which part of it is fake news eh. The culmination of the recent tweets and actions presents this as having more of a personal tone than a grand indictment of big companies relationship with open source.

Cheers, alternators are essentially magic to me. Id have presumed they were generating 'enough' power at all times the engine was running.

I'm not much for electronics. Can you explain how playing the stereo affects mileage?

i used to agree, but i've found a 3.5mm aux cord can fall out quite easily over bumps as the phone gets old. otherwise completely agree.

What do you mean? Brakes must be mechanically connected, I believe it's the law here.

Can anyone else comment or corroborate this? I don't disbelieve you but it's a gigantic if substantiated and would definitely get me to leave the platform.

The DHT performs poorly for unpopular hashes, cold starts and with poorly configured networking. Particularly the last point, an open udp port is required for best results.

No. You need to match all the metadata in the info part of the torrent file, the final hash is a hash of that info dictionary. The fields you lack are largely name and piece size, but without the original file you cannot create the hash of

i think its worth noting that at least the summary presented on this page could be sliced into two sections 1: different usage of accessories to make the occupants comfortable, e.g. warming up interior for longer, running heated seats... 2:

30% is the efficiency of the energy in fuel being turned into work. You need to consider the efficiency of the power generation, power lines, battery and then the electric motor. Any other comparison is misleading.

are they actually the noisiest? don't all vehicles have to be measured under the same dB threshold?

that really makes the most sense. at that point i imagine it would be a more finely controlled compression release. i shouldn't read too much into the wording of what is essentially a marketing statement i suppose :)

agree. but you can barely get a 2 stroke passed the existing emission laws, and they're not generally in use in motor racing outside of enduro. ¯\(°_o)/¯

Nitpicky, but compression release for easy (easier..) starting is already a thing. It talks about completely opening the valves so the starter only overcomes friction. Presumably they're talking about having the cylinders that aren

Also the "2 strokes are the future" remark seems a bit off too. The future of enduro bikes and chainsaws maybe.

The temporary 2 stroke idea doesn't sound very well cooked. Fine control over the valves is great, but the exhaust and other aspects of the engine need to be tuned for that use case.

i'm pretty sure the most popular torrent in the DHT doesnt have 644 downloads in the last week. this must be measuring downloads/hits from btdigg.org (only), so someone is linking directly to it and relying on them to jump clients
