Dude, you just claimed you roll in the Southeast US and then simultaneously claim that you aren't worried about an SUV driver on a cellphone eating and running your ass over! I have to call BS now. There is this documentary on one of those cable channels called Duck Dynasty. Go watch that and you will see that the biggest SUVs known to mankind are running through your precious mountain bike trails and those fuckers are usually drunk as hell!
Regardless of how great Greece's economy may or may not be doing at this time, I don't think you can pin all of that on "green" jobs running amok. That's quite a claim you're making. Care to back it up?
There is no car available that was designed to run on kerosene. Sorry. You nor I can just go buy us an MRAP or FMTV. The 50s model Duece I drove in the Army was multifuel. It said right on the tank that it'll burn whatever combustible liquid you pour in the tank and evidently even if they were mixed fuels. It won't run well mind you but it will run. The multifuel concept only really works in diesel cycle engines though. Your cites are correct; older diesels are sought out by modders that wish to run veg oil or biodiesel but that is mainly because they are mechanically simple so there is less to mod or troubleshoot. Finally the military does not have cars. Everything they have made for them is a truck or some variation of a tractor. If they need a car, they buy a Ford Taurus just like the rest of us do. They will not have JP burning cars ever- unless they fund one of the Big 3 to design one and it won't be available to any of us most likely.
I think you may have your threads mixed up. This thread was started by Alomex who though he found Musk's statement hypocritical but then nojayuk showed that the man stands by his statement: his rockets don't use gasoline nor hydrogen. Then smartass AC pops in with "and RP-1 is.....kerosene" which I pointed out, again, that is great in rockets and shitty in cars and isn't gasoline like Alomex claimed. I didn't see you cite anything anywhere, my apologies (the load comments thingy may have failed to load your post), but you seem to be stating that kerosene is great in cars. Anyone here can demonstrably show you that to be false. There are no kerosene cars available at a dealereship, and you'll be hard pressed to even find a fuel station with a kerosene pump. If kerosene were great in cars, we'd have kerosene burning cars. Hell I think it is cheaper and easier to make than gasoline so you know the bean counters would have already lobbied for the switchover. To even consider that though, you'll have to scrap all Otto cycle engines because I don't think it is physically possible to burn kerosene the Otto way. In the US, it took until the debut of the VW TDI diesel to restart the diesel movement that is still slowly trying to take hold here. We don't get the good Mercedes, BMW, or Toyota diesels the rest of the world gets. Pisses me off really. This applies to cars, we have had shitty diesels in trucks since they were conceptualized. After all of those junk diesel cars in the late 70s and 80s, you pretty much couldn't get one until the TDI came out. As an aside, the same thing happened to turbocharged 4 cyclinder cars- they are just now starting to get popular again.
So for the 3rd time this thread, Musk is not some kind of hypocritical sham. He thinks hydrogen is shit for a car but fine for a rocket. Look at his cars. Do they use hydrogen? Look at his rockets. They don't use it either.
Riiiiiight. As if a bunch of old rednecks dressed in Revolutionary War garments with bags of tea dangling from the brim of thier hats were any more noble. But they had rusty old muskets so everything was cool right?
Which is not used in most road worthy vehicles commonly known as cars. Just as Musk said- good enough for a rocket, not a car. The man stands by his words. Try harder AC.
And in a fuel cell, the hydrogen is going to be mixed with what again? Not that I'm afraid of fuel cell explosions, but your nitpicking is based on crappy logic. I will point you to the AC you responded to:
Do you filter what you write at all? Maybe take a timeout before hitting submit?
Fail troll is FAIL. You keep moving those goalposts. They may not pay state sales taxes, but you said "The poor pay taxes?" in which you did not specify which type of taxes. But I don't need to spell this out for you. You know exactly what kind of taxes the poor pay. Go back under your bridge, there's no food here!
Even if you are depressed, getting a new head of hair is not gonna cure it. Once you get that head of hair you think is holding you back, you'll still come home alone, empty handed, and will continue to be depressed. The lack of hair is not the root cause of your depression- your lonliness is. Your strawman appears to be missing something too. What could that be? Maybe hair! That will make him right for once! I mean OP totally said to cancel all hair and antidepressent research. I know he did!
if you expect everyone else to pay for it that's a very socialist viewpoint
You say that as if it is a BAD thing. As America's system runs now, it is privatize the profits and socialize the losses. You guys always screaming "socialism" always seem to forget that.
So what the fuck does that mean? Should we scrap it or increase the subsidies? Well since it isn't perfect I guess we should just toss the whole thing away huh? We all know the current system is terribly broken. I am about to the point that Aboriginal Medicemen chanting and shaking branches over me will be just about as good as the "usual" way we've been doing things. Your troll was weak, 1/10. Try again.
I'm sorry Navy but I have to tell you, "keds" is not how you would pronouce that acronym. It would be CODS- COmmon Display System! First you guys write your name on your ass and then you command your ships via the cods...come on guys, this stuff just writes itself!
we just need to build a 1.2 terameter long pipeline...
GREAT SCOTT! I would imagine that would take at least 1.2 GW of power to pump it! As long as the fluid velocity in the pipe stays below 88mph, we should be fine!
For shame indeed! I don't know about you, but I am exhausted from hauling these clay pots filled with wine back and forth to the pyramids. Did you know that somehow the pharoahs have violated physics and made it uphill BOTH ways? Insanity! They won't even let me have any shoes either. And for those uninformed in the alchemical arts, copper is HEAVY. The only thing that could make this job worse is if it were raining frogs with swarms of locusts or maybe a plague!
Your logic is exquisite as that is precisely what that means. You see, we call people ass's because when they open thier mouth, only stupid shit comes out of it. The only part of one's body that spews shit is your ass, which was called the d'arriere at the time (we also wore onions on our belts). So we subbed d'arriere with ass because of the stupid shit that pours from both of them.
Look kid, you're a grade A asshole- I'll give you that. How about you go take your assberger's[SIC] meds and give your 6 digit UID back to your grandpa? You're too ranty to sit at the big boys table.
I present to you- MegaSquirt! It isn't completely OS, the source code is available but it has some patents on it. It's the closest thing we have right now that I'm aware of. It is also, to my knowledge, the most popular hobby hacker ECU.
They do or they don't call you a sociopath? Maybe you're right. Sounds more like schizophrenia.
is, as Nietzsche pointed out, merely
First off, don't [sic] me, boy. You misspelled it first. Secondly, sure you aren't "quoting" it but you're spouting off his ideas which is just as bad.
and your sense of irony is somewhat underdeveloped.
This made me laugh, thanks! I couldn't help but read it in Clark from Good Will Hunting's voice. I know you've probably been doing the irony thing since before it was cool but I've just one thing to say: How do ya like dem apples?
Do the needful? Is this supposed to be something an Indian tech suport person might say? Otherwise it isn't any proper English phrase that I know of. At least not American English. Those silly Brits like taking people's piss for some reason.....

Good comparison! I heard from someone important that the Internet was just a series of tubes.....

That's complete bullshit! Everyone knows that fairies don't fart. Those are unicorn farts my boy!
"Seriously?" That has to be one of the most over used words since 1980. And you poke fun at me for "methinks"......
