    and recharge all the electric vehicles fully overnight

    You could, theoretically (assuming max efficiency) power exactly one (1) Tesla 'Home Charger,' if you fed it the minimum 208 required volts (208v) and were charging a standard Model S or X (48 amp draw). According to Telsa.

    Can't decide which sounds worse: concrete shoes, concrete coffin or a concrete enema - Enema Man lived... but I bet he now feels hollow inside. (cha-ching)

    Tell me more about this "performance vs security trafeoff" theory of yours... Ah, I see that you don't understand what cpu's even do (much less how they do it) and simply pulled that out of your ass... well done; now shut the fuck up.

    Shill, you are not good at your job; in fact, you're terrible. Give the fuck up??

  6. HGST 4TB's (three different models) look the best, if I'm interpreting the data correctly...

    Their "lifetime" chart,however, might reveal a different story...

    I recall their SCSI drives being the shit...

    Geez; is it so fucking hard for you dumbasses to "play a tight hand?" Ever heard the expression "don't let your underwear show??"

    Pathetic.

    Certain elements in Georgia clearly are anxious to have their state appear savvy, assertive... and most of all, unlike a bunch of dumbass hicks.

    As for whether or not they've succeeded... we shall leave that as an excercise for the reader. ;)

    This is clearly a patent troll masquerading as Tesla's competition.

    At least now we know that "Nikola Motors" is neither now - nor will it ever be - a manufacturer of actual vehicles.

  15. People still use Chrome?

    Generally not the smart ones, no... however, my myriad detractors will no doubt take great pleasure hearing that that's exactly what browser I'm typing this with - don't ask.

  16. Firefox+NoScript (on Linux or BSD); accept no substitute.

  17. it's 19th century tech (that alone should be a death sentence!

    Most of your post deserves the '5' it currently has... but the above represents some highly-flawed reasoning, as the electric motor was invented in the early 1800's. Older does not necessarily imply less advanced; if nothing else, the pervasive and desperate misuse "A.I." should be a dead giveaway...

  18. Tesla is getting Zero MPG

  20. Re: What the Left/Right wing wants.. on Gig Economy Business Model Dealt a Blow in California Ruling (nytimes.com) · · Score: 2

    Please don't pretend there's any left wing in US politics, because there is not.

    The problem... is stupid-fuck, meaningless, divisive terms like "left" and "right" but to be fair, they fool a rather large proportion of otherwise seemingly intelligent people.

    As for "liberal" and "conservative," these words are also rather meaningless, as a traditional "European conservative" believed that power should be retained by the feudal aristocracy (allowing the peasants to own arms and defend themselves would be, by this defintion, as "left wng" as it gets.

    However, over here in the States, a certain idealogical debate gripped the nation, with Jefferson espousing a "conservative interpretation of the powers granted to the federal gov't by the Constitution" (as progressive of a position as one could take), while Hamilton, being in favor of traditional European "values," thought the idea of empowering the masses was insane, and thus chose a "liberal interpretation of the powers granted to the gov't by the Constitution," thus coming closest to resembling a traditional European "conservative."

    It's really too bad about what passes for "education" - on both sides of the ocean; everyone should already know this shit.

    I guess Russia is using barges so if something goes wrong they can just sink the barge and pretend it never existed.
