You would think that a car is sufficiently complicated at this point to keep an after-market conversion of that magnitude from being anything but a disaster or let-down.
There used to be a lot of room under the hood. I'd probably have to mount this thing on the hood, with 3-4 pulleys to route the toothed belt around stuff.
Or, worse, ever not be able to get a document OUT of Word? I had to help someone with a 98 page document which crashed every version of Word in the office. Even OpenOffice had trouble -- but I was able to see that one page was full of a mangled illustration. I was able to save copies of the document before and after that single page.
We'll be hearing a lot more about this as people try to access documents which were saved/archived decades earlier. Hope that your real estate legal documents don't end up in digital archive in Word format.

I wonder what will happen when we start throwing transparent aluminum containers in recycling bins. Will aluminum cans get varying levels of transparency? Probably not, I expect the material is fully melted and in the process heated well beyond the sintering temperatures used to assemble transparent aluminum. Maybe the rare earths in the mix would be a problem.
On the other hand, dump those plastic bottles in a thermal depolymerizer and convert it to fuel. If you need more plastic, can the resulting light oil be converted to plastic? (Yes, I know there are "plastic" materials also available from plants)
The amusing thing, is that American scientists are given credit here, but if you look at the original article from 2+1/2 years ago, it was the Germans who discovered it. Hmmm...
Well, you see, the creator of transparent aluminum is fated to be forgotten. The best these fellows can hope for is that they are remembered long enough to improve their own lives.
The possibility that gravity might be different in various directions was mentioned.
There are two possibilities which immediately come to mind. Does anyone know of research about these:
Frame dragging wakes: Frame dragging is due to spacial distortion due to rotation. What happens when a second object is in orbit within the frame of an object? In the plane of the orbit, from the viewpoint outside the orbiting object, the orbiting object may resemble an extension of the central object. If the central object had a disk which extended to the distance of this orbit, frame dragging might behave in a way which is similar to how it behaves beyond the orbiting object. So as the solar eclipse begins, we might be seeing an effect of the Sun-Moon orbit sweeping over us.
Relative gravity: Mass increases with velocity. Does relative velocity affect gravity? Does the Sun have a heavier gravity (compared to its poles) along the plane of its rotation due to greater velocities relative to objects in that plane? That would cause daily gravitational variations on the surface of the rotating Earth, an effect I would expect to have already been noticed. I don't know the effects of an eclipse, I was only thinking of ways which might cause directional gravitational variation.

Why do europeans need Land Rovers and Shoguns?
Use a three-inch-long shaft so the motor is behind the brake?
I wonder if they'll add to this blog links to the blogs of the repair of the bugs which were introduced by this repair.

No, they are not selling to gamers. See, this is a "Pro" model. Obviously they are selling to all the professionals who need this for work.
We already started with the sites which are trying to spread the warning.

Keep in mind the cost of the beverage. If the device only contains 5 mL of beverage, then you have to drink 100 cans to get as much as 1 regular can.
They did mind.
They had to have a drink to take their mind off it.
