I agree, having flown in and out of there a number of times, plus a layover once. I actually enjoy the tram rides out to the terminal areas.

It depends on the road and the car. If the road isn't designed for the speed you're going, you are risking your life and others. Step it down to more common speeds. Going 60 mph on a highway is actually slow these days, but it feels normal and you have time to react because the road surface, sight distance, and curves all are built with those speeds in mind. Now try 60 mph in a 35 mph residential area. Not only is it deadly if anything goes wrong, the road isn't as flat and you can't see as far, plus the room to move is much tighter.

It's said that one of the fastest cars in the world, the Bugatti, can only be driven at its full speed and for a limited time in certain places because it requires both a very flat surface and other ideal road conditions. It also eats up tires.

LEO with a bad reentry is fine.

Canon.

Also a fun fact: "I Love Lucy" is even better in the original Klingon.

If there were stats on emoticon usage, this one has to have skyrocketed straight up.

The second part really wasn't needed, NYT, but thanks. Unless it's a standard now to add that to the end of anything he says.

Hope he gets cornered in an alley by a bunch of retirees. And has a quiet discussion about the damage he's doing.

I had heard over the years that it wasn't that bad of an EV. Sounds a lot like the story of Saturn and GM. Kill a car that's actually popular because someone on the board wants to go a different direction.

 

I have an older robot vacuum that has finally shown some age in its battery. The charger will charge for about 15 mins and then gets an error, but it's enough to do a decent vacuuming of the room if I charge then vacuum, then repeat once more. I can't leave it on the charger now due to the error repeating, so basically I run it dead until the next time.

So my question is, can I continue doing this since it works well enough, or is there potential problems/danger with the battery being at less capacity? I could buy a new battery, they aren't terrible in price, but if it works and is safe, why not continue what I'm doing until it completely gives out?
