    Miles per charge

  2. Re:No on Tesla Motors Announces Prices For Their Upcoming Models · · Score: 1

    EV makers should stop trying to appease the "range anxiety" crowd, they can't be appeased.

    While this is true, it is nice for the "every man" that they do. If they focused on the average persons needs, the cars would only go 60 or so miles. As they push into the realm of 300 m.p.c. and beyond they start to make a car that is on par with a gasoline car fro the "everyman".

    Misfits is on HULU for free. Worth the watch. The UK version of being human is on Netflix. Also worth the watch.

    It is 1 of the bigger 35 gallon bags I believe (the yard size hefty bags). You are probably using the small bags.

    I know some places limit you to 1 bag of trash per week. Any more and you have to take it to the landfill yourself. But there is no limit on recycling - thus it encourages you to recycle.

  8. Re:Why return mission? on NASA's Next Mission: Deep Space · · Score: 2

    Seems NASA should work out a colony on the moon where return/rescue would be more plausible. Then extent to other planets.

    Too bad teachers are paid by contract and not hourly.

  14. Re:What bookstores? There's B&N. on Bookstores May Boycott New Amazon-Published Books · · Score: 2

    Personally I don't see physical books vanishing anytime soon.

    They won't, just like 8-Tracks, Cassette Tapes, CDs, and MP3s have not killed off all Records and Small Record Stores.

  15. Re:How to sell new cable to them on Ask Slashdot: Best Wi-Fi Solution For a Hotel? · · Score: 2

    An issue with older buildings that are out of code on many issues is that they can usually stay out of code until they perform $X amount of renovations. So working on redoing the cable/wi-fi might cause them to have to spend thousands on other out-of-code renovations.

  16. Re:Dude, I don't wanna shit all over your question on Ask Slashdot: Best Wi-Fi Solution For a Hotel? · · Score: -1, Troll

    That sounds borderline Communist. We don't want you socialist "help you neighbor" society! If you have knowledge, you need only share it if someone pays! Yay capitalism!

    /Yeah, that was trolly.

  17. Re:Can't deliver 1080p now. on Beyond HDTV · · Score: 1

    Increasing frame rates is unlikely to happen - though it should. More FPS for TV/Movies would mean more costs to create and would not result in more money being made. Lowering profits isn't something that is going to catch on.

  18. Re:Does anyone really like 3D? on Beyond HDTV · · Score: 1

    In the home environment? No, not me.

    However, in the theater, yes. I am a fan of the 3D movies that have been coming out. Probably the main reason I enjoy the current 3D movies is that the 3D tends to go "in" instead of "out" towards me. I never enjoyed 3D when it mainly involved things begin thrown at me - I don't understand why anyone would enjoy that. But what I enjoy about recent 3D movies is that the 3D goes in and it seems like I am watching through a window versus on a 2d screen.

    I enjoy that today's 3d seems more about the world going in then things popping out at the screen/viewer. Gives a feeling that I am watching a world through a window instead of on a 2d screen.

    What part of "No where in what you quoted does it say to withdraw a link" are you failing to comprehend? Or maybe I should say, What part of 'from all their sites' mentions a link?

    A link would be fine, giving a preview or storing cached content would not be.

    Can you quote where it mentions links? I didn't see that part.
