I'd love to buy a brand new car every two to 3 years, but not all of us have that option, some of us have to settle for a new one every 5 years(that is a new one of two every 5 years, for a full "fleet" replacement every 10)
have a better idea. All drones are to be registered licensed with with the FAA. Before flying a drone outside above public land of a non-approved training facility, a certain quantity of flying hours must be logged under supervision by a licensed professional. Before a craft is purchased, a background check and 7 day hold is required. A statement of intended use shall be recorded, and depending on jurisdiction, a local judge or sheriff shall have final say over the issuance of the permit for any specific craft.
School playgrounds are only semi-public and it could be up to each school/district to define the use of the land. Also it would be rather simple to add something about non-transient filmings of lands/spaces that are not above that public land. In this case, they would be welcome to fly over the highway if they had a permit, and could film anything on that public land, and nothing of the private land beyond.
I would need to get a lawyer to right that in a more legally useful language.
I thought there were "rules" about what you could do in order to take a picture, see all the stuff about paparazzi and what they can do to get a shot. I'm fairly sure that a telephoto lens and/or climbing a tree are out. I'm not sure how a drone and a tree are any different. If they could see it from the road while standing there then by all means, but otherwise it should be off limits.
no, "no stated privacy implications" != "No privacy implications"... You have not been definitively told there are none, so the "safe" thing to do is to assume the worst and nuke it from orbit. TBH I'm not sure who wrote the spec the other way.
That board I linked is 18-21 Watts at full load, as in Prim95 + furmark. The i3-2100 is a 65W chip, add in the rest of the motherboard and I'd bet it idles around 20W and peaks at 120W or so. The chip itself is $124, and the cheapest mini-itx motherboard is $50, but you have to spend $60 to get sata3 . That does put them in the same price range if you can live with only 2x sata3 and no USB3. Also the board I linked in fanless, the i3 will need a fan. The APU has a better GPU than the i3 as well.
What does my home server need an i3-2100 for, it's not like running software raid for my home use, needs all that much power. I'm currently running my "server" on a 45WTDP Athlon64 X2 2.3ghz CPU and 4GB ram and I'm not feeling constrained by the CPU at all. I'm waiting to see if OpenCL and the like catch on, if they do, and we start seeing apps take more and more advantage of the GPU, that will start tipping things towards the APU as well.
I would agree that if I was building a normal desktop for a family member an i3-2100 or even a low end i5 might make more sense, although I can get an X3 and an SSD, on a motherboard with sata3 and USB3 for around the same price as the i5.
As the lower power chips become more powerful, things like the nettop start looking better and better, especially for the "second" computer, or the communal one.
but the trigger usually requires you to stop at the light. Also you seem to forget that rural lights at night can have a several minute wait on the "low-priority" side
the APUs? sure, go find me a similar power consumption intel with 6 sata3 ports on a mini-itx board. Also they are far better GPU wise than intels atom.
To be honest my x6 is plenty fast enough, I'm sure I could buy faster, but for the same price and wanting sata3 ports it gets tricky to do in mini-itx on intel.
Seems like police would be able to broadcast a "pull over" signal that the car would obey. Or maybe the police can even signal "Go to the nearest police station" to pick up your ticket.
Seems to me that anything that it could broadcast to a car could also be replayed to any other car. There is probably something that could be done to prevent that but seems hard to do.
I find that most paddle shifters are mounted to the wheel which makes them just about worthless. Try getting the right paddle during a normal left at a light.
I agree with you, I would love to be back in a manual (shame my last car with one ran out of life and the price of this one from a family member was "right"), but i would accept driving a VW DSG. It felt very much like driving a manual, in that when you took your foot of the accelerator, it actually slows down like it should.
Actually if we could have a way to press 4 brake pedals at the same time while still driving the car, I'd bet humans would still beat the computers. Where the computers shine is that they have control of individual wheels, and humans just don't have enough limbs for it.
I'm still scared to lean on the traction aides in my van with them. I'm concerned that if I start leaning on them, when they quit working or don't help enough it will be too late for me to save it. Where as if I don't use them or have them, then I just don't tend to drive the car too close to the edge.
That said, I do like the 4 channel ABS in my van vs. no ABS at all in my car. Earlier this winter i took both out when we had some ice on the road. Braking with 2 wheels on ice, and 2 on the road in both cars presented very different outcomes. The van went straight with no input from me, and had a shorter stopping difference (even though the van is at least 1/2 again as heavy), the car required some steering correction on my part and took much longer to stop. I attribute most of the stopping distance to the fact that the van was able to use each wheel as well as possible, but I had to brake using no more force than the slippest wheel could take.
1) you clearly haven't spent time driving a manual, it become second nature and you don't need to think about it after a bit. It's not like you have to look down or anything to move the shifter or the clutch, any more than you look down to use the brakes. 2) You can't engage reverse in a car from the last 30 years unless it is stationary, even in a manual, there is a lock out. 3) I have panic braked when a deer jumped out of the woods(woods were 12" from the edge of the road, and was during the "witching hour"), and when I came to a stop I found that I had automatically pressed the clutch in as well, it really should be habit/muscle memory after a short time of doing it. 4) After the first few months, I never really found myself thinking "okay i'm braking, I need to press the clutch, and then put the car in second just in case" it simply became muscle memory.
Remember the "toyota out of control acceleration" problem from a while back now? what would you do in the manual? right push the clutch in, and brake like normal. In the auto, you have to figure out which way to push the lever(not an automatic response as it is almost never done) to get it into neutral.
Ever see a person that drives manual all the time try to drive a auto? they reach for a shifter without thinking, and move for the clutch. It's even better in american cars because of the wide brake pedal that covers the clutch space. Good fun when you "press the clutch" out of habit, to find out it was really the brake pedal when you are going 40MPH.
Maybe if all the automatics come in a "DSG" style then that would be true, my car is a 4 speed slushbox that I can make "slip" getting on the high way. It is around 500lbs hevier than the manual, and about 5-7 MPG lower, and doesn't lend itself to basic hyperi-mileing as well.
I agree that the stick wastes fuel if we are talking about the "ultra-modern" DSG and CVT transmissions, but there are lots of cars out there that still have slushboxes. Also even the DSGs are not good at knowing that I'm going down a hill and would like to use the engine to maintain my speed instead of my brakes without taking manual control of the transmission.
Anyways, I'm hoping to get a manual trans in my next car, and baring that a double clutch automatic, but both of those are hard to find in decent trim level smaller cars.
Are we still talking Amonia or R134a? 134A is likely to need around 2.5lb-3.5lb of refrigerant per 12MBH of cooling needed (sorry to lazy to type that into wolfram and get it in kW) at least with a standard DX air cooling setup. It is probably lower in a close coupled chiller. The issue there, is that the compressors still need cooling(condensing), this requires more energy than the cooling side makes not sure how this will really help at all.
There are many industrial uses for that sort of heat, and those processes also seem to need large amounts of power, both would be handy if they were near the nuke plant. Anyways, stop thinking about just houses and it will make more sense.
Go take a look at the app "kid mode" for android. While not 100% security, if you make the "write here" zone small and out of the way enough, and make the patter harder than "Z", it aught to work well enough. Also you could modify ADW.Launcher or similar to only allow your app.
We have been bumping into hardware issues on some dell laptops moving from XP to win7. Serves us right for buying dell, but still. These are 3-5 year old machines with Core2Duos in them, and finding win7 64bit drivers is hard.

sure they shift faster, they just ignore your input for anywhere from 200ms to 800ms before doing that super fast shift.

It needs fans instead of pumps, and a fair bit more maintenance. Pumps are typically more efficient than fans.

You can still get a 15" Thinkpad W520 in 1080P, also DELL15" XPS and Precision and Latitude lines all offer 1080P.
The cheapest W520 on Lenovos website is $1299... That is not less than $1000.
Also this is true for desktop monitors, find me a greater than 1080P res in less than 22" and for less than $250.
