Sometimes hundreds of snapshots a second.

That’s a pretty neat FPS for a tv.

I was in Rome last week and pleasantly surprised to see how many tiny cars they use.

There were plenty of Smart cars, but also many other ultra minis like Citroën AMI, XEV Yo-Yo and Renault Twizy.

They’re not just concept cars or used as gimmicks like elsewhere. People actually use them for their daily business.

The traffic in Rome is insane though. The reason they use tiny cars isn’t that the roads are small, but due to congestion and parking. It makes very little sense to own a car there at all.

From the designers webpage:

The bridge horizontal curvature is based not only on structural reasons, but also on improving the user experience - by walking on a curved bridge, a person can better perceive the destination.

My guess would be yes, somewhat, probably. but maybe not much. As he says in the last part of the video: If it gets hot, you have a problem.

Better ask an electrician.

The devices sold as “EV wall chargers” are not really chargers. They’re simple power suppliy units, whether or not it has bells and whistles to time the charging and what not.

The actual battery charger is in the car. It will attempt to suck as much energy from the PSU as it can and it will itself balance the load and all that. Having a separate unit also trying to regulate the load seems like something that will inevitably create more heat than necessary somewhere in that chain.

Generally speaking you do not need to protect the car from unstable supply. It will protect itself.

I will still recommend getting a proper “EV charger” to ensure that it can utilize all the phases unlike a regular garage plug. Also to ensure that it is properly grounded, which can be an issue for some cars.

At least here in Europe, where we have 3 phases. It’s much better to have all 3 phases wide open and let the car suck a little on each, instead of having it overloading a single phase through a granny plug.

I know the American 2 phase circuit is different, but I still believe it’s better not to put any more heat inducing obstructions in the chain.

It’s not fucking overkill. There’s no such thing.

I’m really disappointed with the video. That dude usually knows his shit, but he’s way off the mark here. It’s just plain wrong.

Getting a smaller charger might save a few hundred, but it will also increase your chances of burning the house down. Good fucking advise, huh.

Fuck that. You’ll always want to charge as fast as your main circuit breaker will allow.

My best guess judging by the visible letters is that it either says “I like your mom” or “Bukakke Soccer Mom”.

It’s common knowledge that soldiers don’t walk in unison on bridges. It dates back to 1831.

Same thing happened in France twenty years later:

It also postponed the opening of a bridge in London by two years in 2000:

Shit excuse. It takes more effort not to march in unison.

It’s also something that is taught in UK army, since the collapsing bridge incident.

Apps or NFC tags are used where I live.

I charge at home myself, but in the odd case where I’ve used public chargers I’ve had to install an app from whatever charging company it is, because I can never find one that takes cards directly, though they all ought to do that by now.

For people who use public chargers a lot, it makes most sense to get some subscription and get a tag for that. Some of them works across different networks. It’s a bit of jungle.

The apps probably do require a card to setup, unless you get it through some company where you already have direct debit (f.i. your electricity provider or gas station monthly billing etc.)

It’s not that different from gas stations. It’s not possible to pay those in cash anymore anyway.

If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough.

A lot of it wasn’t genuine.

Most of it was written by three kids in a trench coat pretending to be Chuck Norris.

This looks like a perfectly ordinary round about to me, except for them driving on the left. It doesn’t have multiple car lanes.

The round abouts with multiple car lanes are indeed confusing to some people, and the ones I’ve seen all have the bicycle lanes offset to make crossings further from the center or dug out under the road.

It’s called “popliteal” in English, sometimes but uncommonly shortened to “poplit”.

Ausfahrt must be the biggest city in Germany.

It’s a sort of marshmallows, shaped as bananas and coloured yellow. They’re somewhat more firm - not as gooey and sticky as regular marshmallows.

The correct sentence is “what does it mean?”

As far as I know, Russian doesn’t use the auxillary verb “do/does”.

In many languages, the “do” is often a included in the case itself, meaning that it will be part of the word “mean”, as also suggested by the usage of “means” instead of “does mean”.

I suppose another construction could be “It means what?”

Shit dissolves better. Food (generally) has more fats and oils that will stick and clog the pipes…

It’s the same pipe.

The difference is my willingness to buy a new one.

It was also Windows 98.

I don’t want to.
