Subj : Re: cold weather - german tangent To : fU From : Khelair Date : Sun Mar 01 2015 21:22:00 Re: Re: cold weather - german tangent By: fU to Khelair on Sun Mar 01 2015 18:28:13 fU> i watch some series like the flash, arrow, the newsroom (quiet good as fU> hell!) scropion and some other stuff in the original language and there is fU> much influence of germany if they talking about hightech products or solid fU> constrution. like "you can drive through the wall they had german steel in fU> it" hmm i'm sure the US-steel is also a good obstacle to drive with a car fU> through the wall. and it's a bit hard to imagine that our engineering is fU> not setup to efficiency. you shot mans to the moon! (with a german fU> rocket-engineer... i think i got now) we have the ideas and you build it fU> big enough that it'll work and impress the world*g I haven't seen any of those. I have a few series that I like, but usually when I find one I just get the whole thing and watch it start to finish. Of course, when they're still in production it's not quite so easy. ;) I've noticed a large amount of cross-cultural things like that, as well. I think the biggest mix that I see is when I see British shows, though. Not that I've been versed in German television since about 2007... fU> good to know, it's very nice to exchange some knownledge between fU> continents. why the hell tom jennings have never got a nobel prize for the fU> invention of the fidonet? yeah, ok... i'm drifting away :) *laugh* What about Al Gore inventing the intertubes? fU> a fuel cell (in german brennstoffzelle) is a chemical reaction device fU> what produced electric power. basicly it works with H2, and O2. the fU> anode is H2 and the cathode is O2 splittet by electrolyte (ions fU> +powered). works like a lead-car-battery. When I heard fuel cell, this is precisely what I was thinking. Then I was like no, that couldn't be the case, we'd be having those all over the place in the USA, as well. Now, once again, I stand in awe at the stupidity of my government. Utterly ridiculous. I've studied the technology well, and have been waiting for it to come out. The fact that it's employed on country-scale in some places and yet we're still belching crap out that gives people diseases here is ridiculous. fU> the reaction of hydrogen (it can also be methane or methyl alcohol) and fU> oxygen (from the air no liquid or cleaned oxygen) produced with help of fU> the electrolyte membrane up to 1volt. Yep. I can't believe these are widespread, but here they're still talking about the 'dangers' of hydrogen power cells. Mainstream propaganda, I mean media, here is ridiculous. fU> in finished deviced more fuel cells are switched together so that you fU> have 12volt and can use a inverter to gain the power up to 230volt if fU> needed. I need these, por dios. I'm going to end up ordering some from Germany if I can't find any stateside. Hell, the German ones are almost certainly made better, anyway. Planned obsolescence here is a huge thing. If they make it to break in a year they know that they'll have more revenue come that time. Capitalist assholes. fU> the company EFOY sell this kind of fuel cell device where you can just fU> put a default powerplug into it and the light is burning or the coffee fU> is boiling. fU> the best on it: NO exhaust that will kill you :) emissions free. Nice. I am dripping with jealousy. You already have some of these cells, or are just planning on getting some? fU> the efoy comfort fuel cell can reach up to 105 watt (210 Ah a day) rund fU> from -20 till +40 degree (C) you can plug 12V batteries on it and from fU> there you can use a inverter and power all your stuff you need. with 0.9 fU> liter per KWH you can run the fuelcell 24h a days with just 2 liter fU> fuel. one 10Liter fuelcan (about 35euros). but it is just methyl alcohol fU> in the fuelcans. there are a few other ways to earn this fluid ;) you fU> have not to buy it from efoy.. I can imagine a hell of a lot of applications for this. I know of some ways to make methyl, also. Thank you for all of the information on this, it is extremely interesting to me, and hopefully valuable in the future. fU> http://www.efoy-comfort.com/technical-data fU> have a look :) Why thank you muchly, sir. I shall, indeed, take a peek. ;) -=- Borg Burgers: We do it our way; your way is irrelevant. --- SBBSecho 2.27-OpenBSD * Origin: Tinfoil Tetrahedron BBS - 9:91/11 SurvivalNet (9:91/11) .
