I am not a EE, but a 10 MW generator is not physically that large. I have seen giant flywheels that store a lot of energy and are spun up by a smaller motor on the other end running continuously (TUM / IPP fusion reactor energy storage near Munich). You could imagine putting something like that in to avoid fouling the power grid with 30 second 10 MW spikes.

I think the problem is letting a human connect these things. Maybe if you automate all the connections, similar to the Tesla battery swap stations? That and lifetime of the electrodes.

Did you have the same intensity and vitriol when candidate Obama said "I believe marriage is between a man and a woman."

But that was years ago? This was years ago too AFAIK.

Carolina Reaper from Pucker Butt. South Carolina has the verified hottest peppers in the world!

1,600,000 SHU average with peaks of 2,200,000 SHU for the reaper. Jalapeno peppers are under 10,000 SHU.

I bought some powder for a chili contest and it made my face go numb and tingly.

As an actual researcher, let me state that your post has little to no bearing on reality. That is, open-access journals do not prevent an individual or group of individuals from artificially inflating various publication metrics. Moreover, agencies look at much more than those metrics, e.g., research output, research impact, past publication venues, and the number of students who are supported and are expected to graduate under a grant, when deciding how to dole out funding.

Dude, do you get jokes?

Dude, do you even lift?

Commit to keeping classic and a lot of this could go away. We don't care what your default look is, just keep the crazy bad ugly classic as an option.

It is simple. Give the people what they want or they will find something new to migrate to.

Cheers for a week, maybe more...

The palm site does work pretty darn well...

Most importantly, we want you to know that Classic Slashdot isn't going away until we're confident that the new site is ready.

Really? Is it that hard to have multiple front-ends forever?

On mobile I surf off the Palm front end. It works just fine. I assume you are going to kill that too?

Sometimes I use a RSS feed. Is that going to be killed as well?

Some of your management staff and IT folks should be publicly fired as a show of good will to the community.

How do you post a top level comment?

Vertical space is an issue.

Titles are not set apart in any way.

User info is not displayed.

Fonts look terrible on my machine.

Generally awful all around. As an old-timer (UID 2977) since before they even had accounts, this may be the end of it all for many many people...

How is this technology related?

It appears to just be click spam posted during Australian daytime fishing for hits.

Keep looking for that new low, /.

We were using the PC Jr for Pascal in late 80s HS CS classes. They were completely adequate and had that distinctive higher end IBM look and feel. There were a bunch of terrible beige box PCs at the time and the IBMs actually looked ok and seemed to work fine for what we did.

My favorite though was the Compaq luggable beast. About 40lbs in a suitcase form factor, the thing was a beast! Dad splurged for dual 5.25" drives and we eventually got a 30 MB 1.5 slot HDD.

I have used MuseScore for a few simple things and I liked it a lot for making decent written scores. Plus, the community often has great stuff available to help get projects started.
