If you always want the latest and greatest, then why are you complaining about the support not being long enough? You'll be buying a new phone every other year any way.
Personally, I'd shell out quite a bit of extra dough on a phone if I knew I could count of having repair options for longer than the warranty gives me.
How large (in area) is such a supercharger station in general? Would it be feasible to put the panels above the station? That would also give some nice shade for the charging cars below the panels.
In your study, did you take into account that for petrol cars ALL filling up happens at petrol stations, but for EVs most filling up happens at home? In other words, you have to remove all petrol filling used for daily commutes from the numbers, and only count he petrol filling used for long-distance driving.
This will also drastically change that pattern where the distribution is lumped in a set of a few hours before and after work, since those people will just charge their EV at home or at work, not at a station.
So here we are - fatefully moving towards Brexit, as if it was just unavoidable now; a very British kind of fatalism, I think. The truth is, of course, that we can halt this process at any time; we may have to eat humble pie and come back hat in hand, but of course we can.
You can't halt the Brexit, afaik. Once article 50 is invoked there is no way back. Brexit will happen, two years after the invocation. Deal or no deal. And any deal will have to be approved by all EU member states, so it's quite possible it'll be no deal.
The UK could negotiate about an immediate re-entry, but the conditions required for that by the EU are not going to be pretty...
Yes! Lets change all editors to add a feature so that people can change a setting to make indentations show in the size they want, instead of just using the feature any decent editor already has that allows people to show indentations in the size they want.
If you're changing all editors you should just implement Elastic Tabstops (http://www.nickgravgaard.com/elastic-tabstops/), since that's the best way to indent code.
Using PCR to make copies is not self replication. You still need to add all the machinery, including the DNA Polymerase protein, to do the replication.
To make this self replicating you'd have to add the sequences to a bacteria like E-Coli, and somehow ensure that the cell doesn't just kick the useless (for it) DNA out again.
Run windows in a VM, for those times you need those couple of programs that only have windows versions. That way you can even make snapshots of the VM state in case something gets messed up.
And what if the creature did develop higher brain functions? Pigs are already pretty smart, what if one of these test subjects scratches "No kill I" in the dirt?
Then that one doesn't get killed, and the procedure for treating the human cells is improved so it doesn't happen again. And that specimen is studied intensively of course... In an environment of its choosing so it is as happy as it can be.
It could be used to signal the intentions of the car to those around the car. The projected pedestrian crossing signals to the pedestrian that the car is intending to stop, so it is safe to cross. The projected turn sign indicates that the car intends to turn right at that turn, and not the (sometimes very close by) earlier or later ones.
Of course this only really works for autonomous cars, since as long as there is a human at the wheel the car won't know what the human is going to do.
Why would they need to sell stuff? Those that own the production facilities can just produce anything they need or want in their own factories. They become self contained in their factory mansions with no need to interact with the 99.999%
What we, the 99.999%, do with our life is up to us. My suggestion would be along the lines of taking over those automated factories, making them state-owned (or taxing the 0.001% with a 99.9% tax rate), and giving everyone a base income.
If everything can be made by robots, there is no need to work any more. Capitalism breaks down. Don't try to apply our current economic models to such a situation. Instead, try to come up with new economic models, and a transition path.
Yes, and the final drive ratio is ALSO larger than 1 for all cars I've looked at, meaning it only invalidates your statement further.
Why don't you come up with some actual numbers? Let me help you:
Lets assume a rather small wheel size of 50cm. That gives a circumference of 1.57 m. Lets assume the engine is doing a low 4000rpm, or 240000 rotations per hour. If this engine was bolted directly to these wheels, the car would be going 376.8 km/h
Most cars are not going 376.8 km/h at 4000 rpm in any of their gears, so apparently the wheels are turning slower than the engine.
I can do that too: Try pulling away from a stop, uphill, in 5th gear, if you don't believe me. (actually legal for you to try, on any public road, unlike your suggestion)
But unlike you I can also come up with actual numbers, easy to find: M3 Coupe (E36) Automatic: 1:3.67 2:2.00 3:1.41 4:1.00 5:0.74 3 of the 5 gears keep engine rpm up. 1 gear is 1:1, 1 gear keeps engine rpm down.
M3 Convertible (E46) manual 1:4.23 2:2.53 3:1.67 4:1.23 5:1.00 6:0.83 4 of the 5 gears keep engine rpm up. 1 gear is 1:1, 1 gear keeps engine rpm down.
A quick google for gear ratios returns ratios of about 3 to 4 for 1st gear to around 0.7 for 5th gears. So most gears on normal cars do keep engine rpm up, and not down.
This makes sense, since when you're driving slowly in 1st gear, your engine is doing around 1000 rpm, but your wheels are definitely not.

The safety instructions are mostly just telling, because the showing part is, for most passengers, too far away and happens too fast to be useful. Anything that forces the learner to actually do something with the material himself works much better than just telling the material.
The only regulation you need is one that states that the owner of the copper is not allowed to supply services over that copper, but has to lease out bandwidth on the copper to any company that wants to supply services.
But they're not native to only one small environment, they're listed as "widespread" across Europe. How natively widespread does it have to be for you not to count it as "invasive for a continent". And when does it go from invasive to native?
At that point it becomes a matter of scale. The death cap is native to Europe, where it is widespread. (according to a 1974 paper). If something is "native" to 90% of the continent and "invasive" in 10, do you still label it as "invasive to the continent" ? And after which timeframe does it stop being invasive and starts counting as native?
Which brings up the question: How can something be invasive on every continent except Antarctica, unless it comes from either Antarctica, out of space, or out of a lab?
So, where does this mushroom come from? It comes from Europe, meaning it is NOT invasive there.

Get a FairPhone. They sell replacement parts right on their website: https://www.fairphone.com/en/
It's been in its box in the cellar for years, since we didn't use it.
Yay, someone actually does the numbers! Thanks! :)

Instead of stealing it they'll just copy it.

Or, for those using the other decimal separator: 6.500 km2.

D1 is the *old* system, from before 2000 I think.
