  1. I was going to post that but forgot.
  2. It was very arrogant and inconsiderate of the allied forces to cut land out for the Jewish community... all this shit's our fault.
  3. That's a good point. lower charge is better than fast charge for battery life. Another one is that only charging to less than 100% doubles the life.
  4. To optimise battery life, the ideal usage range is between 20% - 90% charge. Topping it up from any point above 20% is best. Don't fret about running it down to that number, just keep it above it. Keep it plugged in when you are using it and there is wall power available. Just use it as a portable device when it's necessary. I don't know. Edit: I don't think so because it's running off the mains when plugged in. Once the battery is charged it won't draw current again until the voltage drops below a certain point.
  5. Yes, true, and more portable
  6. Yes. With the Herschel experiment though you can pick out the invisible parts with a thermometer
  7. Interesting. That would a good school experiment for kids of the appropriate age.
  8. That's what I do. You could set it to sleep at 20% charge if you really want to baby it. Just don't run the battery flat when you are on it. If you over-discharge a lithium battery too many times then recharge, metallic lithium pathways can form which can cause a short circuit and catch fire. It happened to a niece of mine.
  9. Keep it charged/plugged in where youcan. they have a life of about 500 cycles. Keep it cool; keep it on a hard surface rather than on your lap. Running it flat too often, hurts it, so, topping up a partially discharged battery is better for the battery than a full discharge/full recharge cycle.
  10. That's the phonons swansont mentioned, isn't it?
  11. Cheers.
  12. Right. Cheers. I forgot Relativity is a classical theory.
  13. Let's assume it's true what you say. This is the level of compliance we have achieved with the prevailing level of pressure. If we reduced the pressure, the level of compliance will probably fall below effective levels over time and we'll be having more frequent epidemics or more pockets of infection as the number of potential vectors increases.
  14. Right. What would the Relativity case be?
  15. Cheers. That's what I was thinking of. Must an object always have momentum, even a co-moving object, because of the fact that there is no such thing as truly stationary.
  16. Is this true? Mass always has momentum (in some frame) but momentum isn’t always allied to mass.
  17. A question directly related: why are IR and UV heat-producing but the intermediate frequencies aren't, or as much? Is it because they are the wrong energies to excite electrons?
  18. An object may be reflective to visible light but absorb heat producing wavelengths in the UV or IR range.
  19. He's just showing off If the CIA can't do it you can bet anybody here can't.
  20. May be it's for the rest of the west to to be clear to the Palestinians this is a purely unilateral act on the part of the US.
  21. You are both are aligned with what I think. I'm just facepalming. I'm hoping that the people trying to nail him for the Russian incidents succeed in the not too far distant future.
  22. It'll be sulphuric acid. Hydrochloric acid is cement cleaner/mortar stain remover and the fumes of the concentrated stuff are very strong.
  23. Will this cause a lot of problems?
  24. You overlooked one small detail: limited retries.
