So, figure out the cost to clear out all the plastic particles in the pacific, good luck have fun!
Without actually knowing I assume our system may go around, but it probably depend on scale. Built for everyone and used by many = better margins than if only a few actually use it or mess up a lot.
Too lazy to check any info, but it may be possible, maybe I should mail and ask how the economical balance turns out.
For aluminum as mentioned but probably other sorts of metal and also glass I assume it works just fine.
Plastic I have no idea but it's a pain in the environment obviously, add chloride from PVC and estrogen-like softeners and such (some plastic got cadmium, lead and such in it to doesn't it?) and it probably gets worse. Also I guess it save resources.
Over in the US you had 11 states with a recycling system for bottles, 6 for plastic ones, 1 of them gave quite a high fee and had over 90% of the bottles recycled.
Looking at billions of plastic bottles per year that will make a difference.
Over here in Sweden a glass bottle has 0.5 or if it's 0.6 SEK deposit, aluminum cans 1 SEK, 1.5 liter PET bottles 2 SEK, and some used to have 4 SEK.
And I'm not trolling. It's a fact you suck.
We got systems for things dangerous to the environment such as paint, glue, solvents and such, batteries, florescent lamps, regular lamps, electronics, glass, metal, cardboard and paper packaging, newspapers and paper, hard and soft plastics (earlier separated though soft where often just burned so you could just have thrown it in the regular waste bin), compost and then whatever else in the regular waste bin.
(Of those I only got compost, regular waste, cardboard, paper, clear and colored glass, metal, plastic and batteries just outside the building, for electronics and dangerous stuff such as paint and florescent lights you've got to drop them at another place.)
Anyhow, saving oil, mining less, put less crap in the air, sea and soil, chop down less trees (not like we lack those in Sweden though, but there are better uses for them) got benefits to.
If you weren't as clueless you would had moderated my troll-posts insightful instead. Maybe in 10-20 years.
Don't worry, we'll reverse it dumping all the cold outside the coast of Florida! Mohaha;D
Nah, time will tell I suppose. But haven't it been said it's already slowed down somewhat?
If it slowed down because we got a better climate even without it I guess it wouldn't matter? I mean in case there's some temperature balance thing. Time will tell. But please no more cold:D
I wonder if Norway will claim more of the area, us Swedes are so lame. Norway most likely already is (or becoming) the worlds best place to live in. Major screw-up by us. Time to move across the border =P
GULEBÖJ o lusekofta!
(According to CIA world fact book Norways GDP per capita is #5 in the world, their social well-fare rating is #1 and they put their oil money in a well-fare fund for future generations. They even got a "prison" on an island outside of Oslo with no fences and no guards and with only 20% relapsed criminals. Take that US justice system. Though I guess they may not jail random drug abuser, time after time...)
The question is rather should we try to act against it in any other way than trying to make our impact smaller (or even more stupid trying to act in a way which let us do "more evil things" / have more of a buffer?)
imho: No.
(Make less of an impact? Yes.)
In other news wtf is it with you Americans and people like those damn tea house jerks? "Oh we shouldn't care about anything, more money for everyone!"
GL HF. Jerks.
You're already the most filthy people on the planet. Get with the times and take some responsibility. Start by separating your trash and recycle things (the only things I actually throw away is cat litter and those ear cotton things), recycle your plastic bottles (or drink regular water..) instead of just throw everything in the same place or later into the pacific. Get smaller cars and stop bitching about how you may have to sacrifice something instead of remaining the biggest jerks of the planet. You will still be able to keep the title for long even if you start, don't worry about it.
Nah, I would like to say "0" because I'm not experienced with anything.
Amiga days: Basic, AMOS, m68k assembler. Swedish gymnasium: C/C++, HTML, Perl, Visual Basic University: C, C++, Java, m68hc12 assembler, lisp, SQL, ANN course (in matlab?)
And then some PHP, awk and such I guess. But poor at everything because I don't use anything or do anything:)
That really isn't much of a problem though since I could easily learn it =P, also here in Sweden people could just pay if it's 20 or 25% of my salary and get some social fees excluded to I think. So even if I did get a salary I would be more or less for free.
So if nothing else they could tell me to re-read a C book in 2-4 weeks and then learn to do whatever they want for 2-3 month at the location;)
But I haven't even been looking for something. But I should be.
(As a teen I considered myself skilled but since I've got no work experience I wouldn't now. However I've probably got quite a good general knowledge from the above, AI courses, database courses, Linux/BSD/Solaris/OS X, ipf/pf/very simple ciscostuff. But actual "skill" in either area is pure shit:D, ability to learn and collect information is high though.)
The thing to keep in mind, is you still need a form of energy to compress the air
No shit.
Usually we're talking electricity
What else would you suggest? In the case of that vehicles they used wind electricity.
But the huge advantage is most likely less advanced technology than batteries and electronic motors, lower cost, more reliable,...
Granted, this tech + a huge power plant is probably still more efficient and green.
Over here our electricity is almost 50/50 water + nuclear.
the real ticket would be if they combined this with a solar-powered compressor that could run while the car was sitting out in the parking lot for 8 hours, and in the driveway for another 3 or 4 (plug-in ability is for a back up). For the daily commute and around-town trips for the average person, I bet this would be plenty usable.
Yeah, would be cool, eventually better with electronic motors then though. Depends on the batteries.
Source? Two days ago they said they would keep developing Symbian but not talk about Symbian^3 and Symbian^4 but rather one steady process and release the changes to the phones as soon as they was available instead.
Also why wouldn't they release MeeGo?
And sure they could pick Android any day, or Windows Mobile 7, but it's not like either would be better than MeeGo.
K, engine name sounded the same: "This is because the car will feature Mazda's next-generation of drivetrain, body and chassis technologies, dubbed SKYACTIV. The new Mazda 2 will come powered by a SKYACTIV-G engine"
"Mazda announced that its 2011 Mazda2"
Considering the/. post sayd "The new Mazda 2", the article says 2011 and the enginge was called SKYACTIV-G while the article talks about the new Mazda 2 and the SKYACTIV engine it's easy to think they are the same..
First article says: "It will come powered by a SKYACTIV-G engine", so same name.
But maybe the journalist of the second article found some old MPG values from some older Mazda2?
I actually RTF(2nd)A, and it says: "Mazda expects it to come in at 28 mpg city, 35 mpg highway with the five-speed manual, and 1 mpg less on highway mileage with the automatic."
I rather meant to boost sales / because they already sell well and want to sell even more / people are more likely to buy their application now that it's so easy / lower price and more sales gives higher popularity ranking and hence more sales... so on.
Slashdot Mirror
The newpaper's site (http://www.northcountrygazette.org/) is now throwing up a 403 error. Fastest slashdotting ever?
Oh well, that for sure will save them lots of money from getting rid of all the unauthorized web-content theft!
Katshing $$$
But as earlier said with liners and clay you probably don't get much leakage.
You still get a heap of various crap though :D
Or what if web-browsers beat potatoes?
Why should things like ATMs run Android?
Linux, BSD, QNX, vxWorks, .. Sure, but Android? For user-interface?
But I'm tired so maybe I'm wrong and stupid :)
If it's on Penn & Teller it must be true ...

Sure they don't use them? I just got the impression they just used slightly different separators (and eventually "the right ones"?)
[citation needed]
Since there's normally an order depth and many of us would be very small traders in comparison to the whole system?
(Eventually you can set prices in 1 "small units" instead of 5 where people normally put 0/5/.../95, not sure.)
Funny looking at that map.
The British and their empire, always doing things different :)
Old emperors of Brittan would had been so proud of Steve :)
And if Chernobyl crashes nuclear power get you!?
I assume it's while handling all the other trades to. Just not one trade.

I have no life but do this all the time in my browser, and it suck.
Like 100 new tabs of girls I will never meet anyway, 20 news items I'm too lazy to read, so on so on.
Eventually I copy paste them to a text file which I of course never will use, clear the browser and then open a bunch of new ones .. :/
I really need a work ..
Whole /. article reads like a troll post to me.

Pure bullshit 100%?
Cool shape, reminds me somewhat about the Saab 92 we used to have, sold a few years ago for stupid reasons :/
http://www.nnauto.cn/nnauto/Factory/Saab/1947_Saab_92_Prototype_The_Ursaaben-01.jpg
That one looked something like this though:

So you mean you can use the tank twice as long as you don't spend it in the same environment both times? :D

"68MPH and a range of 125 miles"
On pressurized air ..
K, engine name sounded the same:

Does not compute.
Would it spin faster? And slow down the earth rotation less?
Spin faster = more pull outwards + more gravity from earth = balance?
Though the maths in that will read wrong if you read it as an equation instead of logic :)
Rather pull from gravity - push from increase of velocity = 0?
I rather meant to boost sales / because they already sell well and want to sell even more / people are more likely to buy their application now that it's so easy / lower price and more sales gives higher popularity ranking and hence more sales ... so on.
For different kind of installations? Maybe? (How's Apple going to stop them? Throw them out?)
Into the same system? Probably not?
