I notice there was no thought given to the discharge direction. You wouldn't want to send all the clippings into the next path to be mowed. otherwise it will build up and build up.
i would love some "yard" to grow some plants. namely some food so i could show my kids how that really works, and that it isn't magic pixies that make it show up in the store.
that's what i always did, route out the main area, and each corner case separately. When you bump into "corner" you start in on it's route. when you finish go back to the big area.
32 miles * 5 days a week * 50 weeks a year = 8000 miles a year just to get to and from work daily. I'd like to move closer, but as work is in a very nice area, unless my salary gets tripled this year, i doubt that will happen soon. ( the foreclosurers are selling for the upper 500s, and up way way up from there.)
So in my '99 saturn wagon i get ~30 MPG, that is 267 gallons a year just to get to work. going rate last time i filled up was $3.87/Gal. that means $1032 just to get to work. That does not include the extra miles to get lunch some days, or to stop and get milk on the way home.
not all of us have mass tranisit as an option. for example there is no option (outside of a car pool), that would get me from my house to my work in the morning and night, in that order, available at all in my area.
This is in the Minneapolis, MN area which wiki claims has around 3.4 million people in it.
but lots of the same techniques could be applied to road cars. Harnesses, for example. Also F1 cars have extensive crumple zones just about everywhere.
Better brakes, "manual" transmissions, better wet/snow tires, better suspension for less unpredictability under load (sharp turns while braking for example), better brake peddle feel. I could probably come up with more if you would like but i'd have to start really thinking about it.
ohh i forgot a nation wide legal BAC limit of 0.00 with the complete loss of your license on the second offense, and should you be driving a car after you loose it for your second DUI, we simply lock you away in a hole for the rest of your life. Proof of criminal negligence that could result in the death of a person or some such like it.
This also goes for cell phone use, texting, applying makeup, reading the paper, shaving, etc. basically anything other than driving the car.
I wonder how many of those are people pulling out in front of a loaded semi and expecting it to stop like a F1 car?
Also all US Semi drivers have a CDL( commercial drivers license) which implies that they have significant extra training in handling the large trucks.
I think the solution is something like "skip barber" for all drivers. More of a focus on driving on real roads, but the car control is always helpful. A rain requirement, a gravel requirement, a snow requirement for everyone north of the Mason/Dixon line should be on the driving test. Before you scream that will take every diver 6 months to get a license, there are materials that can mimic the low traction of snow, and sprinklers for the rain.
Emergency maneuvers on all of the above surfaces would be required, in straight lines, and both left and right hand turns. in the corners, you would be required to tighten the corner to miss something, open it up, as well as full stop without loss of control.
That would help i think. All of that would have to be done in the normal road car of the driver, training could be in a slightly modified road car.
actually i think they should be moving towards things like the lotus elise. the smaller the car the less energy in a crash, also the less energy required to move the damn thing.
why do you feel that "crossover" is the right height? corners can be cleared of obstructions(I live in MN so i include snow in this). Really the only thing you loose in the shorter car is over hill/crest visibility. but how many tight hills are there around you?
I like having VBA macros bound simply to keys in all worksheets. Also everything on the ribbon is now bound to a key, and just about anything can be bound to an alt+# combo.
really, I spent a fair amount of time filling out todays date on 3 or 4 workbooks per "project". now i have a macro that does that with 2 key presses.
Sorry, the ribbon and vba are the things keeping me hooked on excel.
care to show me a touch screen laptop that my kids could use that plays angry birds, and kids doodle, that I can also use to read slashdot, or check my e-mail with (and play angry birds/tank hero)? This is also around the $500 mark?
could you find me a new car on a lot in the USA for 10K? where the two car sizes are at all the same size/grade? i mean no used BMW 535, vs a Kia sub compact. This is under the assumption a fixed budget to use on a "new" car.
I say this as the US doesn't seem to get the high end trim levels in the fiestas, golfs, GTIs, and etc. that Europe gets. We also don't really get the Turbo diesel options as well.
you missed, "yet that $20 savings gets you a USB host port, an HDMI port, and the ability to simply load music and videos on the device from any computer or from the device plugged into the USB port. It also gets you a micro SD card slot, and usually the ability to have more than 1 battery."
THERE IS NO COMMAND LINE IN WINDOWS... by hairyfeet (841228) Protip: Never go full retard.
Well for certain values of command line that is true. Let me know how to create a shortcut as simply as "ln -s" from the windows stock command line(no cheating and using powershell)
I think the better part of your argument is the lack of "the passenger seat" (multiple account support). These devices really do get passed round/left on a coffee table. I know if i had one, and left it out i would expect that my guests feel free to pick it up and play with it.
Both iOS and Android are rather weak in this area to be honest and I hope someone gets it together soon. I'd still probably not consider the iPad due to the hood being welded shut, but with the correct maintenance agreement i could be persuaded.
Start taking CAD files with you on the road... along with the 3 years of e-mailing them back and forth, and you will find very quickly that you need that space. Go to a customer site and take photos (lots of photos) with a DSLR and you will like having the space.
Not everything is for those that just want to use the laptop in the living room.

anyways, in this case higher taxes would just result in more money in the govt packet, not that i would mind if they took care of the roads.
2500 LBS seems like a good starting point and I would easily be convinced to go lower as well.
we would need a few classes i think. a dodge ram 3500 is 6300lbs, so 7000 means a CDL.

but yet requires 50MS latency now... Even a 10th of a second is noticeable as melee dps mainly because you will end up dead.

Does it work from linux?
sounds great, I have no need for shiny disks in my laptop.
I was thinking the rest of the world, by install size, UNIX and other POSIX systems.
care to show me a touch screen laptop that my kids could use that plays angry birds, and kids doodle, that I can also use to read slashdot, or check my e-mail with (and play angry birds/tank hero)? This is also around the $500 mark?
not to be too much of an ass/youngin' here, but wasn't most of the rest of the world outside of MSdos 3.30 using slashes at the time anyways?

Ask the iPhone 3G users and how that last iOS update went... it may have been the 3gs users... which ever.

so explain why the keep filling the spots my crowbar fits on every new release?

much better to buy 3 3.5" drive and use raid... a single 20TB drive would be a disaster waiting to happen.
