rkbabang Posted May 31, 2023 Posted May 31, 2023 Joke thread seems like the proper place for this. Someone created a company to ship a bunch of batteries across the ocean, charging them in one place to discharge them in another. If this isn't peak ESG/climate nonsense I don't know what is. https://electrek.co/2023/05/29/electric-tanker-transport-clean-energy-batteries/
Parsad Posted June 1, 2023 Posted June 1, 2023 These ads keep popping up for me...I am neither looking for an e-bike, nor a scooter! And I'm not a Boomer! That being said, that two-seater off-road scooter looks pretty damn good. It would be easy to pick up chicks at the senior's home! Cheers!

John Hjorth Posted June 4, 2023 Posted June 4, 2023 Is this just funny for me as a citizen in Nothern Europe, or is it me who haven't any clue of the layers in American humor, so that it is actually extremely funny for you, too, my fellow American CoBF members?

That did not provide the information asked for to this "Dumb Dane" you communicate with over the the pond and the internet, you piano & guitar playing redneck. I'm not amused at all! Please see : Wikipedia : Die Dummen Dänen [Manner of speaking]. I hope all is well with you and yours, Jeff! [ @DooDiligence ]

Off-shore wind is limited to the shallow continental shelf, is stationary, and the cost of under-sea cabling to bring the power to a fixed point on-shore. This kicks off changes in floating wind power generation, ability to move the power itself closer to where it is needed, and ability to offload to wherever there are power-jacks and grid; enormously valuable in temporary coastal disaster relief.

John Hjorth Posted June 12, 2023 Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) I think I have found my superior with regard to nitpicking : Twitter - John Bull - The story about the Hadrian's Wall, and a historian getting derailed in his research, thereby producing a footnote at the length of 173 pages.

Gregmal Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 Sports is becoming a joke. Was watching the Yankees game tonight and Michael Kay on Aaron Judges injury update..."spoke to Boone and said he's making progress. Today he was able to get in the pool!"... Twenty years ago Scott Stevens nearly killed Paul Kariya in the Stanley Cup finals and Kariya comes back the next period and scores a wicked goal on a sniper snapshot from top of the circle. Now, a generational baseball talent stubs his toe on the warning track and a month later is courageously getting in the pool....

Ended up renting one with a base engine (1.2l or so) and air conditioning a few years ago and it felt like you hit the brakes when you turned on the AC. It was windows down on the Autobahn with that one.

DooDiligence Posted July 20, 2023 Posted July 20, 2023 Kind of an unfair characterization. I’d like to see a follow up where Iger get’s dressed down by Mickey. Funny nonetheless.
