    First hydrogen car. Could this be true?

    You can burn hydrogen or you can convert it directly to electricity with a special electrochemical cell. Burning it does not make any sense for two reasons. 1-you are putting in more gaseous volume than you get out if temps were equal meaning the only gain in volume is due to the thermal...

    First hydrogen car. Could this be true?

    because hydrogen cannot be liquified in a tank. Anything at a safe pressure would be nothing to a car driving down the freeway. Even hydrogen adsorption technologies are nowhere near capable of what is needed for storage capacity necessary in a vehicle. So, if you cannot compress it to a...

    Anyone else drive with a police radar detector?

    Back when I was a kid, I stole a radar gun from a parked trooper car and had an opportuniy to play with it.. I even radared a few cops with it. There was a tuning fork with it that vibrated at about 4kHz. Holding the tuning fork in front of the detector gave a reading of 55 or 60mph (i forget...

    And when you run out of brass fittings... Prior to cutting this one open, I wanted to test the solderability of the metal. I assumed, being in my desk drawer, it was an empty one. When I tried soldering it with the butane torch, it split open in front of me and dented my metal desk. Knowing...

    Stranded High Tech Submersible 12,500 ft down in Atlantic

    Gotta be pretty dumb to confuse the tensile strength of carbon fiber with it's shear strength. It was basically an epoxy tank, no wonder it shattered.

    i have a rant

    Walmart started that because the checkout clerks were pretending to scan big items like TVs and just passing them over the magnet without scanning for their friends. They were losing way more money with checkout clerks than letting people scan their own stuff.

    4' Elm tree

    When we try it (weekend after next), I will share a video of the result. Although I have my doubts that it will split nicely, I think it will be too twisted and tangled to create any significant shrapnel hazard. I think its just going to crack in a bunch of places and let the gas out without...

    4' Elm tree

    Does anyone have experience using black powder on large elm logs? I've split a few similar-sized logs this way before, and it worked great, but they were oak. My question is whether this elm will split in half following what knarly grain it can, or if it will just separate into kindling. They...

    Starlink Internet

    Here are a few screenshots from starlinks webpage. The map suggests that your speed might drop in the low capacity (wait list) areas. If you are in an area of normal availability and that particular cell isn't being maxed out with fixed primary users, I doubt yours would be any slower...

    Can you find the cat in 10 seconds? Ready, Go!!!
