    Assist cuts out occasionally

    if you know that it will probably be OK again after 10 minute rest, then don't do anything just yet. Wait until there are more repetitions so you can narrow down the possibilities. It would be useful if you could post here everytime the problem re-occurs. yes.

    there are lessons there to be learned. I was looking around for an electric car and the high cost of insurance put me off again and again. Their acceleration ought to be reduced to match their ICE cousins'. BTW, Nvidia self driving platform passed level 3. You can take your eyes off the road on...

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    I think it's the digital coins that drive up the gold price. Higher digital coin price leads to excess liquidity leads to higher share price, house price, gold price and lower interest rate. Biden needs it, Sunak needs it, Macron needs it to support their claim that the economy is doing well.

    that was a minor point in the calculations of kinetic energy. at 15.5mph, kinetic energy of 80kg object : 0.5 * 80kg * 6.94m/s * 6.94m/s = 1,941J at 20mph, the same object would have: 0.5 * 80kg * 8.91m/s * 8.91m/s = 3,175J The damage in a collision will of course depends on a lot of other...

    it could be temperature related. Controller overheating is a real possibility. What is the local temperature when you went for the last ride? Also, did you get in touch with Andy?

    Kinetic energy in SI is measured in joules, but you need to convert speed into SI m/s before calculations. 15mph = 25km/h = 6.94m/s

    Demand for free food still outstrips supply while the bulk of taxes are paid by those who work for their income, the richer you are, the smaller portion of your income goes to taxes.

    UK suppliers for conversion kits

    I have sadly to agree. The problem is online shopping has conditioned many of us to automatically compare prices, neglecting other less tangible quality metrics.

    Just say that you can't use it for reason of illness. Buyers aren't too worried about the exact details.

    AP has recently done a poll on how much US voters are motivated by fear of the other side winning at November 5th election. 70% of Democrat voters fear Trump winning, 40% republican voters fear Biden winning. It's true that if Biden wins, it's no change but if Trump wins, they fear the worst...

    Nvidia Blackwell is their newest chip, each needs 1200W at maximum power. 2000 of them are used in the new data centre one of their customers is building. The problem is every country wants to build ever larger data centres. Cerebras is another big player. They build wafer scale AI chips. Their...

    I sometimes feel sorry for Donald Duck. He's used to not paying small contractors so when they took him to Court, he could wriggle out. Now he has to deal to Deep State's lawfare. It can't be easy while suffering from bouts of memory lapses.

    They are still speculating about the source of the cyber attack to attract more clicks. I guess it will be China or maybe netanyahou to hit back at Biden.

    physical gold price this day in 2007 is around $664 per ounce. 14 years later, current price of the same ounce is $2153. It's just an investment. It can go up as well as down. Mortgage crisis 2008-2012, Covid and war in Ukraine boosted gold price. If you bought Tesla shares in or before 2020...

    Most of those who trade on gold don't hold physical stock, even when they deal in physical gold. Money is just a means of exchange. Just look at bitcoin. As long as you can exchange bitcoins for physical gold, then the two are equivalent. The rest is just trade. If war broke out for instance...
