  3. Re:TFA is a Tesla PR piece on Tesla Fires and Firestorms: Let's Breathe and Review Some Car Fire Math · · Score: 2

    That's a very rough approximation, and besides that, noone ever claimed that the engine was somehow dangerous to start with... A full tank of gas, even though it cannot ignite unless exposed to air (which isn't unlikely given a crash), stores way more energy than the battery of a gasoline car. An almost-empty tank of gas, however, doesn't have that much energy anymore, but will readily explode if somehow ignited.

    The vehicle carries energy. It's pretty much irrelevant whether that energy is stored as gasoline or inside a huge battery -- whenever there is a large amount of energy around, there is the potential of shit igniting.

    It's easy, and you can even leverage XML for it:
    For every blot, just add a line like this to the description:
    <ink color="red" radius="10" pos_x="43" pos_y="131" />

    This has the additional advantage of being machine-readable....;)

    What a surprise.
    Either you didn't read my post, or you didn't understand what it implies. OpenRC is a reimplementation of the BSD RC-system. Designed to sanitize the various substandard init systems commonly used with Linux. Dropping the (very well-engineered) original and using OpenRC would be a ridiculous thing to do on a BSD.

    From TFLKML:

    Onto a totally different topic: we're getting to release numbers where I have to take off my socks to count that high again. I'm ok with 3., but I don't want us to get to the kinds of crazy numbers we had in the 2.x series, so at some point we're going to cut over from 3.x to 4.x, just to keep the numbers small and easy to remember. We're not there yet, but I would actually prefer to not go into the twenties, so I can see it happening in a year or so, and we'll have 4.0 follow 3.19 or something like that.

    Not sure how that reminds you of rapid-release firefox-style...

    I have a Harley with a five speed transmission. I've heard of a six speed upgrade, but thought those were just for bragging rights, as nobody would ever really need a sixth gear. And then I visited Texas. Now I'm saving up for one.

    People, we desperately need to break out of the conceptual straightjacket of three dimensions. If only scientists would listen to me and read the thousands of letters that I have sent to NASAR, Bill Gates, Bill O'Reilly, Bill Clinton, and other respected Schientists, they would have realized that you can get inside solid objects with ease just by travelling in the fourth dimentian. This is something I do on a regular basis, and have done since I was six years old. Once you learn it, it's like riding a bike, you can't get off it ever!
