Can somebody explain in layman’s terms some of the engineering going on here? What is the difference between this and both regular jet engines and prop engines and what are the potential advantages? This is what i clicked on this article hoping to find.

This, plus:

So sad that no one really made good looking hybrids until recently. Even Honda made Civics and Accords fugly and all the Clarities are just weird. To the credit of the Prius, it’s ugliness made Tesla and other EV companies try harder to make a good looking EV so that the reaction wasn’t the same. 

That is a problem that can be solved with insurance. I expect fewer claims and larger settlements. But just wait until you are sued because you weren’t using self driving tech and therefore 90% more likely to get into an accident....

If gun shops and manufacturers were held liable, they’d be much, MUCH more careful about who they sell weapons to. A lot of shops would stop selling to the public altogether, and just sell to law enforcement.

cruisin’ USA references should automatically receive infinity stars

James Riley, Barrett’s father, had asked Tesla to install a speed limiter on the car after the teen received a 112 mph ticket in a 50 mph zone.

Completely agree. Pre-Tesla, this was the public perception of EVs.

How the hell does that damage occur? It is like something took a bite out of the rear quarter panel.

Hell if I know. We are only around 1/5th through the century.

Having been to Europe and breathed the air in cities where diesels really took off, I am grateful that American cities were spared dieselization. While it is possible in theory to clean them up, the acrid, biting nitrogen oxide smell is ever-present as is the brown haze and grimy soot from aging oil-burners. In…

Now hear me out: Volkswagen Jetta TDI.

Is Miami’s water quality really that bad?

A 1982 Camaro Z28 as a birthday gift for the seller’s wife, sounds like ultimate man maths at work here.

Then they no doubt also feel women should be able to:

We’re close to retiring to Costa Rica, so we’re shopping the “forbidden fruit” vehicles that aren’t available in the US and I’m currently drooling over the idea of buying a Suzuki Jimny.

I really want a wagon since I don’t need a crossover suv or truck and my options are limited so I been thinking about like a Subaru Outback or a used Volvo wagon

Mostly. In heavy hydrogen there can be a neutron as well.

This is a plot to a Michael Crichton book.
