    Changes in the Endless Sphere Community

    I visit rarely now. But every once in a while, like now. What I like, and why I'm here now, is I used ES as a public diary, detailing all kinds of useful information as I did some builds. That info is here, not on my computer or any where else. So I come because ES is my memory all things...

    ice sheet losses in Greenland and Antarctica reach new highs

    Its been a while since I posted here, as I've become an infrequent visitor to the forum. Hope this post finds you well. So its still the topic that I hope everyone if paying very careful attention to. Here's a recent Guardian article that, even given my general awareness of the problems...

    which MAC clutch is better?

    Thanks for the pictures. I'm in process of replacing the clutch and found my new & old clutch identical to the pictures. Not such much a question of "best", but does the new work in an identical manner. Which I'll soon discover. ... and that, which explains what I'm puzzling about, of how...

    The 2017 EV's

    As we come to close of 2017 and the fall gives rise to 2018 models, though I'd chime in who I feel deserves the EV car of the year award: its the Tesla Model 3. Its nearly guaranteed to become the first A-EV the world will see - that's Autonomous Electric Vehicle. To understand the reason...

    OSVehicle

    The mass production and sell-for-profit automotive industry is indeed a business. But the visionaries behind OSVehicle saw something else, of lots and lots of people forging something together in the spirit of open-source and in the modus of the internet of things, 3D printing and so forth. As...

    ice sheet losses in Greenland and Antarctica reach new highs

    Well yes, true. But as goes the Arctic, so goes Greenland, and the Anarctic. We're in a heating, melting world. Unfortunately, we'll not be around in 40 years to debate the issue.

    ice sheet losses in Greenland and Antarctica reach new highs

    Thanks for injecting the reality perspective. However, making a 100 year projection is near impossible. Projections I've seen show a widening band of variation over time with quite significant upper & lower limit differences the farther out the projection. Your suggestion that it not being a...

    2015 And EU Future Economic Predictions

    Its been awhile, now 2017 and things look more grim than during the 2015 set of posts. Now, while the reality of Brexit is being dealt with by the EU, on its opposite shore, the reality of a Grexit will once again surface to further destabilize post-WWII Europe. That's when American bred...

    new NOVA special called “Search for the Superbattery.”

    Reclaim from https://thepiratebay.org/torrent/17002723/PBS_Nova_Search_for_the_Super_Battery_720p_x264_AAC_HDTV_MVGroup Don't think you'll miss much by missing. While its OK Nova material, there really was not anything revolutionary, e.g., "supper-battery" related. More of an intro for a...

    Great TV Shows!

    After watching last night, had to raise The Expanse up in my Best TV Shows of 2017 listing. Really blown away by the quality of the CGI and plausible story line of space in near future solar system dominated by outposts and mining. The two episode show saw war between Earth and Mars averted...

    https://thinkprogress.org/chart-of-the-month-driven-by-tesla-battery-prices-cut-in-half-since-2014-718752a30a42#.xztog2rqh Battery prices are coming down at the same time that quality is going up, thanks to the Tesla Gigawatt factory, now about 50% complete and already producing product.

    Illegal #EBikes

    Not off topic at all. Matter of fact, it is the topic for a lot of us on the forum building and riding our eBikes or other EVs. Hope the planet is flooded with them, before the seas rise too high they flood our coasts and drown civilization. :mrgreen:

    Oh my god, its President Trump!

    There's the illusion that Eaarth is not a single vast complex system, supporting a biosphere. And the obvious reality that our lives, our species, is highly dependent upon that. The polluter, the consumer, every participant in our so called economic system is guilty. Take a bio-assay of...

    Elon Musk: Fossil fuel industry

    A Brief Chat With Elon Musk About Climate Change, Rex Tillerson, and Donald Trump An interesting set of developments under the Climate-change-denier-in-chief. There may be a glimmer of hope here. That even though the Keystone XL and Dakota Access piipelines may be revived, the EPA climate...

    Oh my god, its President Trump!

    I love the Mozilla Firefox browser. On audio channel tabs, there's a visible mute button. Every time I hear that grating lying unreasoned malicious voice on my local NPR station, I hit the mute.

    Chevrolet Bolt EV is the 2017 Motor Trend Car of the Year http://www.motortrend.com/news/chevrolet-bolt-ev-2017-car-of-the-year/?google_editors_picks=true Impressive. Among many features. Perhaps the Chevy Bolt has the Tesla Model 3 beat.

    Sunthing-28 Lithium Ion Reviews?

    I went through my own hell with this, which I've posted on, as have others. Its this awful state of affairs that suggests people buying batteries should do their research first and buy with confidence. Only buy batteries where the cell used is fully disclosed and standard spec sheets are...

    Illegal #EBikes

    Ditto that! Revolutions take time. FYI, its complaints by drivers stuck in traffic seeing these eBikes zip by and are irked. But also the delivery guy ignore a lot of the traffic rules & regs, not waiting for light changes, driving between cars, etc. We don't have the problem where I live...

    Top 10 eBike Conversion Kits & Where to Buy

    I'm with others on the forum that believe there is a very large scale Chinese hub motor company flooding the market with these 1000 watt motors through a large number of retailers and online markets, including AW, Aosom, Walmart, eBay and others. All the same motor. Probably all the same kit...
