Why can't we just build the fusion reactors from Simcity 2000?? They always seemed like a good choice

California has had a real momentum behind a lot of state activities: is there any effort happening to force utilities to bury power lines so they can't start fires or be knocked down by snow/wind or any of the other problems that buried power lines would solve?

Perry Mason Jar posted:I'm convinced a lot of municipalities get kickbacks from body repair shops. I know of a road that goes down a very long and steep hill on which the speed limit decreases from 45 at the top to 35 in the middle to 25 at the bottom. Local cops love to hide at the bottom looking for a quick victim. The road is arrow straight and not running past any houses. There's no reason for the speed limit to go down like that. The conspiracy theory is that the whole thing is the result of an unholy union between the police, the local government, and local brake shops.

I've been wondering this for like 10-15 years: if a snowstorm is coming could you just cover your car in a tarp? And then bam the next day you simply rip off the tarp and then there's your car with no snow on it. Why don't people do this? Why don't I do this?

Paradoxish posted:Anything heavy enough to stay on the car without needing to be secured (like a car cover) will scratch the hell out of your paint, and then you'll really scratch the hell out of your paint when you try to drag it off with all that snow on top. You really think a regular blue tarp will scratch the hell out of your car??

Paradoxish posted:You are going to be dragging every bit of dust and debris on your car across the paint surface with several inches of snow pushing down on it. People have hosed up classic cars by leaving them under tarps for a few years and literally rubbing away the paint in spots where the tarp was blowing around. There's a reason real car covers secure in a billion different spots so they can't move at all. But what I'm saying is that you put the tarp on your car the night before the snow happens. Then 3-8 inches come down. Then you just rip the tarp off

Wait so if the main problem with the tarp plan is the weight of the snow, why not brine the tarp??
