Toyota are planning to sell an allegedly solar powered car in the next couple of years.
I've done a bit of arithmetic and if the horizontal surfaces of an average sized car were completely covered with solar cells, it could generate about a kilowatt in...

Scrot's a bit nippy too, but it's nearly Christmas so he'll soon be half way out of the freezer.

Memnoch replied to the thread Grear Sci-fi book I'm reading at the moment in Poetry, Books & Writing
The story telling is good, although the denouement is a bit predictable. Inconsistencies in the science bug me but if you're not nerdy enough to care about that it's an interesting premise that I think could translate to film quite well.

Memnoch replied to the thread Is antisemitism being used like a rred herring? in General Election 2019
Also worth noting that Zionists are more fundamentally racist than just about anyone on Earth, and that any accusation they may level against anyone else in that direction is thus hypocrisy of the very highest order.

It also thinks Britain will be a global "Pariah" if he becomes PM.
One wonders firstly why a global Pariah is presumed to be sufficiently influential to be the "world's greatest" anything, and secondly why the Zionists regard India with such contempt that...

Why is someone who's not a postman a member of a union that only cares about postmen?
A friend was wondering.
Anyway, I'm off out. Going to the local chess club to get some help with my golf swing.

An interesting irony that a man who wants everything handed to him on a plate remains ignorant in a country where education is free. That's a very special kind of stupid.

If everyone stopped having babies, the last baby to be born would always be the youngest person alive. When that person was old and infirm, everyone else would be even older and even more infirm, so who would look after him?

However, the TD2 law you mentioned would have to be violated somehow for a perpetually oscillating universe, and although the collapsing phase might appear to reverse entropy, irregularities would actually grow more and more quickly and the final stages would...

You might be underestimating the solar power itself. I've seen claims that solar panels can provide half as much energy in winter as they do in summer, but I think it'd be generous to call that "optimistic". There's not just fewer hours of sunlight in winter,...

What's it powering? Amps is Volts divided by the resistance of whatever is drawing power from the system. At 12V you'd need a resistance of 1.44Ω to get 100W, and that's very low resistance for domestic purposes. I wouldn't expect to see that kind of...

Memnoch replied to a poll How will you vote in the general election?
I'm not seeing it. :s8
Anyway, even if I thought he or anyone else looked or sounded like someone I liked, that would never be a reason for me to vote for them. I'd be more interested in what they say than how they say it or what face it comes out of.

I don't see the resemblance. Vocally or ideologically.
Which is a point in Boris' favour since Churchill was a typical 19th Century imperialist twat to whom history has been kind largely because he wrote it.

How can a song written in a minor key have the word "merry" in the title? It's the sort of tune you might write on your way to a funeral. Probably your own.

Thermodynamics doesn't rule out infinite future, it just says the universe gets more and more boring the older it gets. It does, however, present a serious problem for infinite past.

I'm sure you can buy (or make) crackers that are fully recyclable. Toys, plastic or otherwise, are unnecessary. All you need is a paper hat and a terrible joke.

My only real issue with xmas is it's so in yer face. The tv ads, the plinky plonky music in the shops, the tacky Christmas lights all over the place... but worst of all are carol singers who can't sing.

Memnoch replied to the thread The leftists are about to get such a thrashing in General Election 2019
The pollsters are predicting humiliation for Labour, which means they'll probably do well.
Remember when traffic wardens were ashamed to admit it? I wonder what pollsters pretend to be when asked what they do for a living.
