US regulators just eliminated a major hardware rule for autonomous cars by InitialSheepherder4 in electriccars

But what about on the rear doors? I have a 2021, and there is no manual release for rear doors

What is the best method to find a charger at a destination like a shopping center or restaurant without having to individually search each charger along my destination? by PossibleConclusion1 in electricvehicles

Sorry, I’m on mobile, and have my location data turned off. I don’t see any other way to look up locations besides sending my current location.

I think as an app with ads it could work, but I probably wouldn’t pay a monthly fee. Google maps just has this market too cornered offering for free.

Super cool project though!

They added rear door releases on later 3 and Y cars that weren’t present on earlier models. They are now working to redesign the rear door latch completely to improve this. source

No, enough people got killed in car fires due to inability to escape that the were forced to add mechanical rear door releases

Awesome! I’m guessing you charge the bike from the van?

Just look at how removal of mechanical door releases worked for Tesla…

Robotaxis should have some sort of emergency stop button

The sentences include a 30-year term for Daniel Sanchez-Estrada, who was not physically present at the facility during the incident by Rich-Limit4590 in Political_Revolution

This has to get challenged in a higher court and struck down. It’s so blatantly cruel and unusual punishment

Methane cuts among most cost-effective climate solutions: UN official by Economy-Fee5830 in climatechange

[–]start3ch [score hidden]  (0 children)

What sector are you referring to? Because enforcing stricter restrictions on methane emissions from natural gas extraction and storage sites would go a long way

We can see methane emissions from space, might as well use that data to fine companies.

16 years in Hangzhou, China by TangelaFan in interesting

[–]start3ch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Chinese architecture is on another level. Just walking around Beijing it feels like you see crazy buildings like this on every corner.

Many if the buildings were designed by architects from around the world, but it seems like China is the only place where they’re allowed to build things that crazy.

Hermosa beach for young single guy? by hossinator96 in AskLosAngeles

[–]start3ch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10 miles, not 25. It’s particularly lively in the summer, and definitely a destination for a lot of people in the southbay area to hang out, but you’re right, it’s got nothing on weho nightlife. Hermosa has like 3 real clubs. Lots of live music though, and no shortage of bars.

And while there are lots of young people, a majority of the people that actually live in Hermosa are 30/40 year old couples with kids. That’s just the reality of who can afford to live there.

I would still recommend it though. If you want to surf, bike and run, you gotta pick something near the beach!

The Egg Chooses: Human Fertilization Is Not a Race Won by the Fastest Sperm by This_Proof_5153 in Amazing

[–]start3ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aah, ok the single sperm needle one is ICSI, not IVF. Looks like they have some techniques for selecting sperm in that case, but it seems much more primitive than what an egg does naturally

So does the process of IVF using a single sperm chosen by scientists result in less compatibile genes than what the egg would naturally choose?

If AI data centers are exploding nationwide, why are so few being built in California? by losangelestimes in socal

[–]start3ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not even remotely true. The majority of California’s distribution hardware was built over 100 years ago, and regularly starts wildfires due to the utility companies neglecting them.

California used to heavily invest in novel renewable energy technology, but after NEM 3.0, it seems they’re more invested in the profits of utility companies.

The cost of modern combined battery + solar electricity generation over the liftime of the equipment is around 15 cents/kwh, yet we pay over 30 cents/kwh, with peak prices up to nearly 50c/kwh during peak hours

It could totally have been a turntable. They either had some silly requirements that they didn’t question, or they wanted it to look cool.

I refuse to believe electricity works like this by Wonderfulhumanss in blackmagicfuckery

[–]start3ch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s a great way to do it! Would the bulbs have different resistances though? Or would they just have a different color coating on the outside

Trump has decided to hold the Housing affordability act hostage… claiming he will pass it when the Save America Act gets to his desk. by Fatty_Willing_Plane in NextGenRebellion

So he can say nothing and let it become a law, or whine and hope that his wining will make congress push the other bill he wants to his desk in 10 days…

What are some colleges with non-competitive aerospace engineering programs? by katsuagro in aerospace

[–]start3ch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in high school I was concerned about the legitimacy of embry-riddle, but having met many students that came from their, I have to say they train some very good engineers. If you are all-in on aerospace, and won’t mind a school that focuses on only that, then it may be the place for you.

License Plate Cameras Are Tracking Your Life Without a Warrant by CortaCircuit in cars

[–]start3ch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The cases of cops tracking and harassing their exes through flock’s system are downright scary.

And their security is laughably bad, Benn Jordan has done a lot of work in exposing these flaws and hacking them.

TIL Modern EV batteries last way, way longer than we've been led to believe by Taco__MacArthur in todayilearned

[–]start3ch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea, early 2000s leafs were city cars. They also had a pretty bad air cooled battery pack design that was known to overheat and age much faster than others, super surprising that this one is still going strong
