So, the funky cars they used in the iRobot movie with Will Smith, this re-invention now makes them possible? I am curious to know how well it works on rougher surfaces, like potholes, sand, or gravel.
For a ready to use saw, that can be easily modded into a mini-table saw (with liquid cooling from below), check out the RInginator: http://www.ringinator.com/
When cutting things that make lots of dust, its best (if possible) to cut them underwater, or submerged in a fluid. This way none of the particulates become airborne.
I just tried making one, and was shot down. Apparently it counts as:
Project Guidelines No charity or cause funding. Examples of prohibited use include raising money for the Red Cross, funding an awareness campaign, funding a scholarship, or donating a portion of funds raised on Kickstarter to a charity or cause.
In your hurry to bash solar, you didnt bother to read the comment correctly. He is talking about the energy needed to make a solar cell. So for instance if a cell takes 10kwh of total power to manufacture, it will quickly produce more than 10kwh and "pay" for the energy it used. Anything after that is a surplus that can go toward making more cells.
Its compartmentalized, so if one module is lost the others can be sealed off and continue being used. If all modules are punctured in one event, then yes, total loss is probable.
Really? Do the math, the numbers grow quite rapidly. Assuming very conservatively that a gallon of diesel costs $25 to deliver to an FOB (closer to $400/gal at times). Using an example number of 1000 gallons used per hour across all Afghanistan. That's $600,000 per day right there. $219 million a year.
Plug in actual consumption numbers and watch the costs soar.
Well, then look at the direct costs. How many gallons per hour do the generators and AC use? How many generators are in use. And how much does the average gallon of fuel cost to deliver.
In the USA we have something like that for large appliances, like fridges. The sticker on the front shows Kwh used per year, and estimated cost based on a range of electrical prices.
To "send" power from station-A to supplement station-B that powers a City, B has to lower the Hz, and A has to raise it? And they both need to average out to 60 again?
So, in hydraulic terms, A increases pipe pressure, and B decreases it?
If a package cannot be moved, they place a thick steel dome over it, bolt it to the ground, and set off a charge inside the dome. Destroying anything inside said dome.
A few years back Northwest was taken offline for few days when a road crew accidentally dug into an unmarked fiber line. So maybe they cant do it digitally, but they can easily find maps of where the fiber is buried...

Let it dry out them throw the cake away.
Not all saws are powered by electricity.

The whole lot of them.
A paper route? Whats that?

Yes, thats the point. Thats why they now spray foam on them. Going from none to foam reduces energy use by 92%.
Funny how being green and efficient is considered a weakness instead of a strength.
A gallon of fuel you dont need to use, is one you dont need to carry or convoy in.

Now they just need to make them Thorium reactors. Safety issues: solved.
So, let me see if I understand this.

Neat.
Because fuck you, that's why.
At what point does more computing power not matter anymore?
'nuff said.
Well, it was created by Americans...
No, this is proof that anyone can make a fusion reaction. But nobody has yet to make a reactor that produces more power than it consumes.
I thought Laika was to determine if something "alive" could survive the trip into space through the EM belts?

Or if they can move it, they use one of these specialized trailers: http://www.citizensassociationofpalmbeach.org/2008/Golf%20Tournament/2008-03-28_11.41/IMG_0324.JPG
