Damn, I keep forgetting that slashdot removes anything that looks like an html tag.
Sure, if you use a posting mode that allows HTML tags. If you don't want your comment to be interpreted as HTML, click on the little gear icon and change your comment posting mode. Also, Preview button.

Really? The Postscript printers I've used, network and local, have all required drivers. Maybe this is a stupid question, but how do you control duplex or not, color or B/W, which paper source, etc if you don't have a driver for the printer?
A PPD, a text file which describes the printer's capabilities, and the commands to send to change various options.
Every time you buy RoundUp at Home Depot, they give you small speech about the dangers of RoundUp. Seems like Home Depot has their ass covered. Thats how dangerous RoundUp is.

Too damned many alliterates here these days (and no, that wasn't misspelled, look it up).
Fine, I'll take the bait: Merriam-Webster says it's a verb, but you're using it as a noun. Wiktionary agrees that it's a verb. So what were you trying to say? In English this time.
I wish there was a website specific for open sourcing ideas, or maybe there's one and I don't know about it.
This isn't for "vehicle-to-vehicle comms.
"Automakers aren't too happy about a recent U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposal, which uses part of the wireless spectrum assigned to vehicle-to-vehicle technology for Wi-Fi instead."

Syngas is not generally produced starting from coal, with is the topic of this story.
In what sense is it not generally produced from coal? Coal gasification is being done on a commercial scale right now (and has been done for decades). While it may not be the most common way to generate syngas, it's certainly not a new or unknown idea. I'm sure if there's more demand for syngas made from coal, more plants will be built. And no, generating syngas from coal is not the topic of this story.
Not sure where this process generates syngas.
Not sure why you think this process has anything to do with generating syngas. The point of this is to burn certain carbon-containing materials, e.g., coal or syngas, in a way that the generated CO2 can be almost completely captured. This research plant generates 25kW from coal. The upcoming one will generate 250kW from syngas.
Assuming the parent poster is French because of the reference to France, these pluralization mistakes aren't so far fetched for a Francophone. In French, verbs are conjugated to match whether or not the subject is plural.
How is that different from English? English has subject-verb agreement too.
So, he/she has the word "they" so naturally because this is a plural word, to him/her, "suck" should be pluralized to match.
The plural form of "suck" isn't "sucks"--you don't form the plural form of a verb by adding "s" to it, in either English or French.
Infinitive: "to suck". "He sucks": singular subject, verb ends in "s". "They suck": plural subject, no "s".
Infinitive: "sucer". "Il suce": singular subject, no "s". "Ils sucent": plural subject, no "s".
but the 12V battery that powers the accessories and gets its juice from the high voltage battery shut down when Broder pulled into the service station.
What kind of crappy design is that? The high voltage battery should charge the 12V battery, but the 12V battery shouldn't arbitrarily "shut down". Especially when the HV battery still has juice in it (which it did, according to the logs). Also, not sure why an e-brake needs to be battery-powered in the first place.
