Two problems with Handbrake:
- It doesn't recognize titles with no audio.
- The autocrop feature doesn't allow you to choose a different frame (like dvd::rip does), so that if the frame is mostly black the crop will be too aggressive.

These issues render it useless.

UTC has no concept of timezones. But the GMT timezone is UTC+0 so midnight in UTC means midnight in the GMT timezone.

The first researchers on battery technology were Volta, Galvani, and Daniell. The lead-acid battery (as used in cars) was developed by Planté, and the dry cell (as used everywhere else) was developed by Leclanché, Hellesen and Gassner. All of them are European.

Further developments include the nickel-iron battery (Sweden), the alkaline and lithium batteries (Canada) and the NiMH battery (Europe and Japan).

The nickel-iron battery was commercialized by Edison, but not invented by him. No battery technology whatsoever originates from the US.
