Running entirely on chemical based systems best thing. The primary drawback is the response time of the system. Chemical battery discharge alone has a seconds-to-minutes response time. This is not adequate to support commercial applications like hospitals/data centres/work offices, etc. It also does not allow reactions to spikes in the grid, which can save thousands of dollars a month. Hybrid systems using flywheels have low fire risk and have 250ms response times. I can see that this technology, combined with systems like TORUS, provides a better long-term setup for many applications. Peak Energy's solution would definitely have other applications that it would be a good fit for, like long term storage for solar grids or replacing systems that do have fire prone risks.

You are misreading that ingredient. It is niacin (aka Vitamin B3) not nicotine that is common in Japanese energy drink ingredient lists.

Montana, so a new mad cow disease?

No, that was Joe Ybarra who was a video game producer for many other games.

For $5 you can take the raw data dump provided by 23andme and have it processed by Prometheus and they give you all sorts of details not covered by 23andme. For that fee you can have your data reprocessed for free in the future to apply it to the latest research available.

Email seems like a reliably way to inform people... 23andme sends emails out when they find new changes and have updates.

An employee with a total salary of ~120k probably actually cots the company 200k to employ. So that number doesn't actually sound too far off for the employer's actual cost.

Most airlines specify electronics are not covered for damage. This may have to change but for now don't expect electronics to be covered. If it's like the current international ban items lime DSLR cameras and even lenses (they contain electronics) are also banned.

Actually this is a pure cable modem issue. http://www.dslreports.com/tool... is a test that can be used to see if your modem is affected. https://www.dslreports.com/tes... lists some of the affected modems. The ARRIS SB6190 is one of the more popular modems on the list that is affected.

My Vizio P75-C1 75" 4K "Home Theater Display" legally can't be called a "TV" because it doesn't come with an ATSC tuner. The FCC requires all "televisions" to come with a tuner since 2007.

This is for WiFi calling, not cell data. You would have to purchase WiFi access from the airline to use the onflight WiFi which already blocks things like streaming. WiFi calling would potentially be something else they block.

They would have to prove the owner knew someone was in the car at the time of him initiating the locking of the car. If anything BMW would be held liable for requiring "special knowledge" in order to unlock the car from the inside when a lock was initiated from the outside. Someone has died in a BMW from heatstroke due to this behavior and nothing has changed in the behavior. So I suspect it is unlikely any changes are made as a result from this case.

The BMW 550i uses an electronically controlled headrest that can't be detached. This IS a "modern" car...

Page 38 of the manual states "Do not lock the vehicle from the outside with people inside the car, as the vehicle cannot be unlocked from inside without special knowledge." So if the car was remotely locked this would be the case. The owner of the car could have initiated the outside lock with the BMW Remote Control App. You have to press the lock button from inside the car to allow someone from the inside the car to unlock it.

The default behavior on BMW cars is that you have to pull the door handle lever twice to open it. The first pull unlocks thw door and it and the second pull opens the door. I've had passengers think they were locked in because while they pulled the handle once they couldn't open the door and I have to tell them to pull it again. I would be surprised if the guy was woken up by the SOS system with a CSR talking to him and he then pulls the handle once and thinks he is locked in since the door doesn't open. Then the CSR messes with the drugged up guy making him think he is locked in if there is any truth to the article and what was being said to him..
