If your goal is to reduce emissions and the over all process is equal to or greater than the previous process even though a specific portion of the process appears to be less, then you have not reduced emissions, you have only stored and used energy differently with possible added costs.
The importance of looking at the entire process is because the goal is not necessarily just using less gas, it is emitting less Co2 and other greenhouse gasses. A less complicated way of looking at it might be cutting down trees and burning them in place of coal claiming you are saving GHG emissions from coal use by lowing the amount of coal being burnt. now imaging you didn't cut down trees but had to mine them.
They changed the way they calculate the Miles per gallon ratings in the mid 2000's because too many people weren't seeing the claims. Anyways, if your numbers already adjusted for that (as in apples to apples comparisons) or do they need adjustment? The reason I ask is because using like calculations, the spread would be greater and therefore the 40% would be more if they are not already adjusted..
Only in times of drought. Hydro power generally dams up a river or a portion of a lake and it will release a portion of the water going into it regardless of it producing power or not in order to not screw up the ecosystem down stream to badly. A lot of these damns are regulated and must allow a specific minimum amount of water through per hour regardless of the water level on the other side. Whether this release is used to create power or not, only impacts the longevity of the equipment.
The police are definitely not impartial. The government's prosecute is not impartial either. When they arest you, it is because they think you committed a crime, not because you might have or might not have done so. When they prosecute you, it is because they think you committed a crime, not because they though you could have but aren't sure.
The police has arrested people and prosecuted to a conviction based solely on circumstantial evidence. That is to say, not actual proof you committed a crime, but you were near where it was committed and could have done it, and we think you would have benefited from it happening. Nothing impartial about that at all.
I would suggest you sell your amp to someone other then the government. Regardless of who is asking for the information, or what kind of slant you want to put on them, your right to profit does not override my right to know what my government is up to or how and why it is spending money it takes from me.
But if you are really that worried about it, then take the profits from your sale and get the patent protections.
I've made some particularly lethal or potentially lethal potato cannons that shot things other then potatoes. All I needed for it was some arisol bike chain lube, some PVC, and a spark ignitor from an old gass BBQ grill. Not exactly obvious when it's spare parts or simple stuff that normal people would own/buy.
But you don't really need to make gun power. There are some air rifles that rival real firearms. Even of they do not match them identically, they are still powerful enough to get the job done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVyBXdsi7Mw
Despite what the name of the project and the aims of the project were/are, they were not building guns. They were building parts of guns, namely the frames and component parts. This is something we have been doing for years in our backyard forges and machine shops. Youtube is full of videos either explaining how to get past certain points or showing off their progress.
It is not illegal or a felony unless your specific state makes it so.
I wouldn't call that being a fanboy. If anything, I would say it was partly informative. I haven't listened to Glenn Beck in years (pre CNN), but when I did, if you tuned in while he was doing it, you had no clue if he was being real or not. generally he would do or say something completely ridiculous at the start in an obviously weird voice before going off and doing it.
You made a mistake, it took 2 weeks to accuse the right party instead of blaming our free speech, some corny movie that would struggle to be B quality and the awesome tolerance other cultures have for ours.
Madeleine Albright was just in Ohio campaigning for Obama, and she said it's a difficult situation to understand and that Romney was wrong in criticizing the White House because it takes time and investigation to determine what happened. I hoping someone would ask "why was they speaking about it before having those crucial facts then?" but the topic didn't allow questions.
Will the Ethernet to fiber converters work reliably with serial connecters? I have about a dozen machines right now that I use a serial over Ethernet adapter and even long 25 pin serial cables I had to custom make and a crap load of switch boxes because most of the software used needs to stream instructions for the first run of a new part.
I'm not the op, but it sounds like this might get rid of some headaches.
I wouldn't say I was over my head but when I tried to root my phone on more then one occasion, it didn't work. The biggest problem is that the forum posts are not organized with what is current in most cases and you find out after reading post 205 that the particular how to or way to root had been fubar'd by a provider update.
My real problems with this happened when the service provider pushed an update that broke the phone and I had to get it unstuck from a slash screen. It took roughly 2 days to find what would actually work by digging into the forums and weeding through all the garbage.
So I'm just saying, I think the large problem is forum organization- service providers pushing updates- and perhaps frustrated users. All of which can make any particular user appear to be a troll, or in over their head. But from providing tech support in a linux channel through IRC years ago, I do know a lot of people will try all kinds of weird shit to talk someone into fixing their problem for them and there are a lot of people who will do anything to avoid reading and learning about something..
(*note, I've been to numerous forums and they all suffer the disorganization issues which may be unavoidable when things change so rapidly.).
You might want to use it and the sticky part of the tape will need cleaned off the lens if residue is left behind. Most tape that I use will leave a bit left over. It might be easier to find a phone protector sleeve that has a slide or something that covers the lens.
To be fair, he said he was using.uk domains and talking about Europe laws which is what this story is about (EU directive).
I'm sure the names can be changed and so on to make it fit, but there will be some differences because not every country has the same rights protected from government as the ''US" does.
When mobile phones were introduced, it wasn't just a way to connect people instead of running telephone lines. They were convenience items that allowed you to be connected in more places. The charges were for the air time associated with the devices not necessarily the calls being placed as it was already implicit with the air time. The old radio phones (pre cell technology) started this off.
Charging for incoming calls is really a relic from charging for the convenience. It makes no sense when the phones are used instead of laying or maintaining copper wires to provide phone service or even when the technology mimics traditional pots technology. But the first companies in the market where the same companies who did the radio phones so it was transferred over because it seemed like a working model.
If you can equate the two, you might have a point. But you simply cannot. Good trolling though- Nothing says fallacy like equating a 60-70db loud exhaust 10 feet away for a brief period of time with a 160db noise next to an ear until if causes physical damage.
You only need approval on motorized vehicles if they are going to be used on the public streets.
I've built go carts, 4 wheel drive ATVs, zero turn lawn mowers and numerous other motorized vehicles like off road mud trucks and even a boat once. I've sold some of these, destroyed some and sold the remains. I have no fear of selling my next project as they are all to be used off road. Although, the mudding trucks could technically be licensed with little modification and driven on the public streets. You can still create pipe buggies an even license them to be driven on the road if you meet the requirements.
Well, without going through all that, you can just look at radio frequencies. The lower frequencies travel through objects better and carry farther (until you start messing with some fancy antennas and getting into really high dollar stuff)
That's why you could pick up a local TV or Radio broadcast and get a page on your pager (old school) but your cell phone wouldn't have a signal in some buildings. Sound Frequencies, while they are different, are very similar in this regard.
lol.. Do you think you are important enough to me or anyone else that your attempts at insults actually mean something? Like I said, LOL...
I'm sorry some biker dude broke your heart and now you are obsessed with the size of their dicks and hate them all. But it wasn't me. Find the real person to troll.
People shouldn't have to "justify" putting loud pipes on anything if we are free though. As long as it doesn't violate the law that is. That was the only reason I bothered replying- we are free or we aren't and the GP seems to think freedom is cool as long as you don't do what he doesn't like. The replies I received were less then respectful and the mods are hilarious considering.
I don't really go around doing pipe shots in town. Although you will hear the exhaust. Most my cruising is actually on back roads away from towns but I have to pass through them for the shear fact that roads actually go places. I love being on the back roads where you can really crack into it and feel the power or let off and soak in the scenery. I also don't drive the loud vehicles if I know I'm going to be out after dark.
As for the movies, I do not go to the movies except for the drive in and that's about once every 2 or 3 years when some movies just peaks my interest. But I know what you are saying. I mean I go to the grocery store and put up with the kid throwing a tantrum because his mom won't let him get the cereal he wants, I put up with the clown at the gas station who for some reason takes has to crank his stereo while pumping gas even though he's scared someone will steal something so he locks the car up and all you can hear is the bass rumble and all the lose panels on the piece of junk jingling because of it. There is enough inconsideration to go around. Just today I pulled into a fast food joint to make a call on my cell phone and some kids pulled in blaring their stereos causing me to roll my windows up to finish the call. They are free and if I'm in a public space, I have to accept that there are other people in the world who do things that might annoy or inconvenience me. It's not a big deal as far as I'm concerned.

Or how much of a pain would it be for me to clone your hardware uniqueness and impose it into a virtual machine with software representing hardware?
Now instead of tricking you into installing malware, I just need to convince you to create an account.
Replacing a computer would be problematic too.

My house is far enough off the road and insulated well enough I would never hear it. But go ahead and wish.
