Comment Leaf to Home (Score 2) 281

Storing excess solar in one's car battery sounds like a plan. The leaf has a 24KW capacity with a 170km range. For a modest 2 person household that uses less than 10KW a day and typically drives a max of 60km in a single day in the suburbs, it makes sense.

If the economics match up, of course and I'm sure they won't at least until the price of solar panels and electric cars falls drastically with economies-of-scale and/or subsidies. $AU40K for a hatchback (on Nissan's website) sounds excessive; these things aren't mass-sold in my country.

every crime show nowadays catches the bad guys using some mocked up screenshots of fake social networks where bad people lurk, be it arms dealers, assassins, people traffickers etc.

Does CSI: Cyber bust out a Tor Browser and catch the bad guys on *actual* '.onion sites? That would add to the authenticity.

Comment The cast (Score 1) 141

Arquette isn't too bad but her supporting cast, my word they've scraped the bottom of the barrel.

MacNicol - weirdo from Ally McBeal
Van Der Beek - loser from Apartment 23
Luke Perry - wrinkly old geezer from 90210

If you had to assemble a line up of washed up 90s fogeys, this'd be it.

Comment Australia? (Score 1) 25

Three used to be a mobile carrier brand here, but Hutchinson and Vodafone now jointly run a network under the 'Vodaphone' name.

Vodafone runs a distant 3rd in terms of subscribers compared to the Telstra and Optus networks but might pick up a few thousand new users if the global roaming outside Australia was compelling.
