It is not the longest flight ever, by any aircraft, by time. The record is over 64 days, 64:22:19:05 to be exact https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.... It looks like it has the unmanned record though.
Still a cool achievement having a solar powered plane in the air for that long, and has potential as a satellite replacement.
we are 14 trillion fucking dollars in debt, and they want to spend it on fucking acronyms where they sit around building shit we cant sell to anyone. fuck these people.
No you are only off by 2.8 trillion it's 16.878 trillion
Doesn't this just turn your EV into a less-efficient gasoline-powered vehicle?
There's a common misconception that because an EV puts out no emissions, that it's 100% clean. And that because electric motors are 80%-90% efficient, EVs are 80%-90% efficient.
That number conveniently ignores the battery efficiency.
So lets re run those number including every thing.
Right now if you are an utility with any significant amount electric generation you have to be connected to the internet. That is where you markets are to sell your electricity to transmission providers.
Hmmm. Lets take a look at profit margins:
AMAZON.COM Profit Margin 24.1%
BP Profit Margin: 8.14%
Exxon Mobil Corporation Profit Margin: 9.34%
Apple Profit Margin 40.7%
Hmmmmm them oil companies and there high profit margins hmmmmmm.
No it is a sad day in America more big government more taxes.
The government need to stop meddling in my affairs, now I will have to pay to not have something.
I wish we had only 10% unemployment here in Michigan its 15% and including the people who no longer count it around 20%.
And I have to ask my self why is the US taxpayer funding a Finnish car company to build a luxury hybrid sports car, that in all reality most like will never be built on any production scale. Why am I paying for this? How is this stimulus for our economy?
Why are we spending money we don't have and never will. Isn't that what got us in to this mess in the first place?
This doesn't surprise me at all, I don't exactly like it but under stand it. The positive side of this is they are being reasonable on how long they keep the logs. Though if they collect this information the student should made aware of, not just buried in the contract they signed.

The USA is technically metric. Just about all of the US units a defined as some number of metric units. Example.1 inch is defined as 25.4 mm and has been that way since 1959. https://www.nist.gov/pml/weigh... https://www.nist.gov/physical-...

I think you confused legal and illegal. Legal in every state but California. https://www.online-paralegal-p... https://www.quora.com/Is-it-le...

Not that much. Sulfur, mercury, and lead kills people. C02 kills civilizations, so the emphasis is pretty much spot-on.
OSHA's maximum safe level is 3% (30,000 ppm) and 10% (100,000 ppm) is considered lethal so 400 ppm is no big deal.
I have a Steam account on a computer with no internet access the has been in offline mode since 2005. Everything still works fine.

Fuel to electricity 40% ( Generation plant)
Transmission ~90%
Battery Depends on chemistry
NI-MH ~66%
Li-ion ~80-90%
NiCd ~70-90%
SOFC ~60%
DC Motor 75-92%
Bottom Line From fuel to road
Best case 30%
Wost case with current EV batteries 18%
Modern ICE 20-25%
SOFC EV 45%

Things Like this makes me hope California breaks off and sinks into the ocean.
