Funny story. For various scientific purposes, they make a 90V battery, of which we keep a few. At one point, some dumbass got curious, since he never heard of a 90V battery. He decided it had to be a typo, and of course checked his theory by touching it to his tongue. He lived, but said it felt like getting hit in the…

So lots of people objecting my not mentioning current (which I sort of did) but let me elaborate. Current is voltage divided by resistance. The resistance is determined by your body, which path the current takes thru it, and how resistive you happen to be on that particular day.

Generally yes, but gasoline will kill you slower. You have some time to react. Maybe not enough to save yourself, but you stand a chance. High voltage kills you almost instantly, and paralyzes your muscles while it does so. Once you’re shocked, you’re done for.

An idiots guide to voltages might be helpful. All these assumes a power supply capable of delivering continuous current, not some sort of scientificy sensor supplies.

Does the phone have rocket assisted rocket modules? If not, I really don’t see how its relevant.

I believe it also needs and extra set of landing gear, 16 carbon fiber beams, 3 perfectly round spheres arranged in a deltoid configuration, 13 organic honey dew melons, and a infinite number of pinguins with sunny desposition.

Torch would be moving the engines to the middle of the airframe for better space utilization.

It’s an idea so blatantly ridiculous that I can only assume airbus engineers are trolling the patent office.

Thats brilliant! We’ll equip each passenger with a small personal jetpack module, and strap them directly to the wings. This way each passenger may disembark upon reaching the destination of their choice, to be obediently followed by their rocket powered luggage.

I can’t watch that without singing “america, fuck yeah!”

That sounds sensible, but lacking in flair.

Here at doubledollar consulting, we are all about pleasing our customers. So we’ll modify the proposal to replace the parachutes on the arriving modules with retro rocket braking systems.

That’s good, but needs a second module, underneath the plane, for cargo.

If you want to bring exhaust pressure up, its easier to jump the air into the exhaust.

Because in order to combat lag by pushing compressed air into the intake manifold, you’d need a really large air tank. Say your engine is a 3 liter, running at 1500 rpm. That means, at wide open throttle and no intake losses, its breathing in 3 liters of air 750 times a minute. Or 37 liters per second.

The kidnapper is an ex cop, and the child’s father.

I don’t know any details about that particular case, but most amber alerts are issued for kidnapping that are essentially extra legal custody disputes, where one parent that does not have custody rights runs off with the kid.

Is it protomold? I’ve been wanting to give them a try.

I’ll forgive FO4 all its flaws save the glitchiness. Seriously guys the game crashes every time you step near an area of the map which is a requirement for many missions. How in the world did that make it past development?

I would think that it would be in VW’s interest to hire an independent lab to certify that it’s fixes work. The cost of testing should be negligable to them, if it works they can shout it from the rooftops and point to a respected independent lab, and if it doesn’t they have a chance to try something else before they…
