Good! Just like the top supercomputer of today won't be the fastest for very long - the technology and the willingness to use it is developing RAPIDLY.
AFAIK Tesla is delivering a whole system, not just some batteries that someone else integrates. It's known that this system should provide a given voltage and AC frequency to the grid. How the plant works internally, is not really interesting.
Not the technological level, but the assembly itself. Nobody is talking about fixing a broken IC with an electron microscope, but pulling the device apart, swapping the bad piece, and putting it together again.
As the AC below me also says, Apple etc. isn't using weird screws and refuse to sell the screwdriver (or manuals, or other repair parts) just because avoiding standard screws like TORX makes their manufacturing line more efficient...
Yeah, I was wondering the same, but this is probably it. If they are sitting on 12M coins because from the premine or because they got in early, they can afford it. If it keeps the trust in the coin (that they have a zillion of) from tanking, this payment is worth it for them.

That may not only be up to the UK tough - there is no guarantee that a free Scotland would be allowed to stay in the EU while the rest of UK leaves. At least Spain would probably disagree strongly to that.
Or have read/r/talesfromtechsupport? An M.D. who was touching his monitor to open a fingerprint-unlocked USB drive (but accepted that it would not work "because his computer didn't have a touch screen) comes to mind in this case. And that was without deliberate misdirection - the program was simply showing a picture of the USB stick and an animation of how to touch it.
I find it to be the other way around - I actually mostly stopped posting on this website a few years ago due to right-wing/conservative trolls who was shouting down everything else than (slightly paraphrased) "America F*k yeah! We use the English language so this is an american site, go somewhere else if you don't agree 110%!" and "Socialist Obama want to enslave us all and take our guns!!", mixed in with a bit of "feet and gallons are the best units, anyone who claims otherwise must be a spy" and "why do we discuss politics? This is a tech site!". And I've spoken to several people who say they did the same thing - reacting not to normal republicans/conservatives, but to such "trolls".
So I find your claim to be... interesting. On the other hand, maybe things have changed?
In the original reddit thread, someone mentioned that this was not available if the connection is seen by the OS as a normal Ethernet connection, and that most satellite connections presents them like this.
Yeah, that was my thought too. Eye protection should be the bare minimum when doing something like that - personally after seeing the effect and the not-so-long range, I would not have fired it without a face shield+helmet+heavy protective garments/boots/gloves with little chance of any pieces getting caught long enough to burn through...
Just imagine what would have happened if the shell didn't go as far as it was intended, but landed at his feet...
I live here, and I think the biggest note I've actually ever used was 200 CHF (due to ATM stupidity I got a single bill instead of several 50s and 20s.).
The facility has been active for over 60 years, and the cables are in some of the oldest parts (the injectors). So yeah, some of this stuff is obsolete; If I'm not mistaken, they ripped out a lot of 60s control electronics during the consolidation last year...
Also, they are hiring at many levels, and do a lot of training / internships, so while the competition is tough, its far from impossible. Which are paid reasonable to very good, with good benefits.
As described in the article, they have such tools, but the facility has been remodeled many times over the 60 years it has been in operation so the database is no longer 100% accurate. The database is therefore useful to check which cables *may* be redundant, but one still has to check...

Sure, how it works is interesting. I'm just saying that there is nothing fishy with the system being sold for a set number of $/energy stored.

The crazies are out in force there too... 6000 y.o. earth etc.
Let's just say that I was not the one that got triggered and went on a rambling rant...

Actually, that comic strip does provide references.
That's a strange responce! I would think a more typical response would be to hit the brakes?
Not only primates yawn - other animals do too. And it can be pretty contagious across species too...
Which is why you don't go close to a line of parked cars...

Apparently, there is a 1000 CHF note:

CERN is a pretty strong supporter of open access:

Also, they are hiring at many levels, and do a lot of training / internships, so while the competition is tough, its far from impossible. Which are paid reasonable to very good, with good benefits.
Have a look at:

As described in the article, they have such tools, but the facility has been remodeled many times over the 60 years it has been in operation so the database is no longer 100% accurate. The database is therefore useful to check which cables *may* be redundant, but one still has to check...
Said bombardment might also have transformed the cables into low-level radioactive waste...

Replacing a fuse when you suspect that's the problem, and you're one of the few who isn't scared for taking a screwdriver to a piece of electronics.
Most consumers? Meh, printer's broke, warranty went out last week. Time to buy a new one, now with even more useless buttons and blinky lights!
