You sound like their target audience for sure. Let them know they messed up and should redesign their hiking microwave to have 3 cubic yards of space so you can roast a turkey dinner on the go.

Doesn’t sound like you’re their target audience then.

Your example sounds like what they’re targeting. Though, given your doubt in the last sentence, I assume you don’t get a lot of links to Houzz or Pinterest. Not having those mobile pages nag me to install the app is going to be so nice.

On balance, it seems like it’d be a good idea to encrypt all video and only have footage reviewed if there’s a specific complaint against an incident. That could, in theory, keep privacy without sacrificing a more comprehensive log of the events.

Take the 3 ideas that were posted before I started this and combine them...then use the tech on freeways as well. If you can get an intra-city light rail like thing following the current interstate freeway system with heavy banks, lower speed (150-200 mph is still vastly faster than you’d go in a car), and elevation…

Finally, I built a damn business model for this exact scenario in ‘99 and was told it was ‘nonviable’ because manufacturing would never be able to adapt to the variety for a reasonable price. Always bothered me that nobody with the power to do anything did anything like it. I’m sure countless others have had the same…

They did, but apparently people weren’t comfortable swapping out the more expensive and fragile parts of their car for parts unknown...or so a co-worker tells me. I’m not really sure why swapping didn’t take off. IIRC it was just a few seconds to swap over to a fully charge battery and you didn’t have to exit the…

True, but the comment was more to point out that if the “long” charge times are too much for a PD to absorb in downtime, the battery swap would be able to find a good home with them.

True, it could also charge while the cops are doing their favorite thing: paperwork!

If ever there was a use for the battery swapper, this is it. The PD could have 3-4x the number of batteries as cars and patrols could simply swap them out when the mileage drops below 75ish miles? Should make uptime comparable to gas cars. Not sure how well they’ll handle the abuse, but I suppose that’s what this…

My wife, a crazy confluence of events, and she helped me see myself from an external perspective. Really, I’ve had lots of mentors, she’s just the latest. :)

I thought they were large art from IKEA...didn’t notice they were “windows” until I read your comment.

Doesn’t appear to be a moniker she’s actively seeking either. The proletariat are disappoint.

Motivational poster?

Not the hero we need, but the hero we deserve...or something...

haha, it’s all about perspective!

Wow, you’re right, sorry, trying to manage too many threads at the same time, got my lines of communication crossed.

Desperately wanted more HP/Torques for a long time. Finally realized that I’m not a good enough driver to handle more than I’ve got: mostly stock, 16-year old S2000, so ~200 ponies and ~150 torques seems to hustle ~2700 lbs reasonably well.

Looks like a totally reasonable add-on that you should be able to pick up at Pep-Boys to go with some mad tyte gear for your whip.

I can be sometimes, but politics of late have blunted my sensibilities.
