@goatsarah went from building planes that could take negative 3g and recover from an inverted dive*, to...whatever the 737 is...
*With some minor damage like loss of a stabiliser and the undercarriage blowing off but who's counting, it still landed

@goatsarah the books are onnthe kindle. Might get to them in 2037...
@goatsarah not yet...
@goatsarah not read the books yet, tho I was wondering where the emergency power was...
@goatsarah we're gonna need to quarantine and forcibly vax the fuckers if they try and travel...
@goatsarah am I allowed to call him a Fucking Quisling, as someone who isn't on Team Fabulous?
@goatsarah my car has a speed dial and a "how far" one... makes stopping at the lights tricky to judge...
Can get you a decent price...
@goatsarah @Nikkileah just in time for Helene and Milton...
@goatsarah taken out by a krait with a basic pulse laser after getting stuck in the slot
@goatsarah seems a perfectly cromulent way of dealing with grease
And Tories
@goatsarah if you're leaving bodies you need a bigger plasma cannon...
@goatsarah glad I am in a NerdSpace, as everyone I know seems to be in a decent relationship...
@jonoabroad @goatsarah overhead wires, and big bastard batteries where not feasible. Weight is not really an issue for trains
@goatsarah it's just so *craven*
Like the facist press will savage them no matter what so fuck them and be bold and honest
Racist Uncle will vote Nazi^wReform no matter what so fuck him with a .303 and be bold and honest
And I understand that putting hard numbers on things is daft but for the love of god you can sell net zero as "yes, it's a bit up front, but you get *free* 'leccy for 6 months of the year and it fucks the Saudis and Putin with a wirebrush dipped in battery acid"
@goatsarah @thelocalecho given they Know and are maximally vindictive I am amazed one hasn't been assigned to you by the Committee...
@sarahdal @goatsarah to be fair to the HRV it's trying to reduce the cost/improve the efficiency of any system by allowing ventilation without wasting heat. (Any big modern building HVAC should recover heat and pre-warm fresh air)
It just appears to suck...
@FediThing @goatsarah @stevelord the marginal cost between a trolley electric and pit-stop-charging bus battery will be negligable - electric double deck bus costs £450K, (diesel is £300K) says google, for reference. More google says £200 per kilowatt hour, big 300kwhr battery is £70K, so you'd save maybe 50K per bus
Overhead line gear is in the millions per km on a good day... and then you have to *still buy a bus*.
Or buy 4 or 5 go anywhere buses
Wires for trams great. Buses, nah
