  1. Re:Still not truly green on NASA Unveils Greenest Federal Building In the Nation · · Score: 1

    Quit relying upon outdated Wikipedia. Technology in semiconductor manufacturing progresses so rapidly that Wikipedia is a TOTALLY FUCKING USELESS source of information.

    WIKI = What I Know Is, and what Wikipedia knows is OUTDATED in today's rapid-paced world of technology.

    So far, we've got nano-printing tech that puts the energy ROI on solar panels to roughly 2 years.

    Expected lifetime (low-ball) of TFP solar cells is a decade.

    The poster has no clue what they're talking about.

    "There will be no red or blue pixels on any display used in the building"

    Almost a hilarious statement considering my own field of 'green' tech.

    "Iran is no threat? The country where they all come together and shout "Death to America" every single day? For over thirty years and counting? "

    I heartily point you out to some old Nat'l Geo magazines, where IRANS THEN-LEADER was extolling their wonderful nuclear power program in advertisements....

    And the USA was SUPPORTING IT.

    This 'long range missile' was designed with SUBMARINE LAUNCH CAPABILITY IN MIND.

    Does India have working Submarines?

    Then the US is a target.

    "Sadly a Leaf cant make my 40 mile commute and back."

    That's funny, I just drove one while I had my Taurus' transmission worked on.

    Temps were around 60F and I did an 80.2 mile drive out to Garden Grove and back.

    I'll be doing the same thing again tonight. Fridays are my Garden Grove work nights.

    I live in the middle of downtown Riverside.

    Your numbers make zero sense in my personal experience.

    "Filling such a high capacity battery inside of five minutes requires an incredibly high current."

    Nope, you can get 480/277/240 lines installed at low current and charge just fine, assuming your battery bank is within that voltage range (assuming there is nothing else than a rectifier to go from AC to DC.).

    What's going to be the killer is how FAST you can safely charge the battery.

    Logically that would be the correct course of action. Set forth a contract of service. You violate said contract, you've lost the right to use the service. Further access to the service is unauthorized, and thus would then fall under the Federal statutes regarding said unauthorized access.
