Except during the middle of the day, you can usually use the sun. Joel Send a noteboard - 22/10/2011 08:36:54 AM
Scientists. Always skimming over the REALLY useful applications.


I mean I suppose we could tailor something to allow people to always know which direction north was but one might assume if you were doing that kinda transhumanist stuff a little GPS implant would be easier and less intrusive.

Unless, of course, you live just south of the Arctic Circle and it rains/snows 80% of the time.

Interesting new Biofuel innovation: Magnetic Algae Isaac - 22/10/2011 03:05:13 AM 507 Views
I must be missing something with biofuel, though this certainly sounds like good news for it. Joel - 22/10/2011 04:41:17 AM 286 Views
It's rather difficult to cram a fission reactor into a car Isaac - 22/10/2011 05:10:23 AM 283 Views
If the batteries are that bulky then, yeah, biomass or something similar is appealing. Joel - 22/10/2011 07:15:22 AM 359 Views
We're constrained by what economics and tech permit Isaac - 22/10/2011 08:09:22 AM 278 Views
And physics, always physics. Joel - 22/10/2011 08:34:07 AM 322 Views
And scale... scale is important too Isaac - 22/10/2011 01:40:18 PM 266 Views
True, but sequestrations bottom line is we have to remove more than is released from biomass. Joel - 23/10/2011 11:41:20 AM 384 Views
I think you're still misunderstanding this concept Isaac - 23/10/2011 01:26:14 PM 261 Views
Um... as stated, biomass creation=B'(t)=/=biomass creation. Joel - 23/10/2011 10:46:04 PM 401 Views
No, that would be net Biomass increase with time Isaac - 24/10/2011 07:49:10 AM 271 Views
But is not "net biomass increase with time" the same as "biomass creation"? Joel - 25/10/2011 02:54:16 AM 432 Views
Forget Biofuel. When do we start making magnetic people! Dannymac - 22/10/2011 07:43:43 AM 252 Views
One would have problems imagining why Isaac - 22/10/2011 08:09:55 AM 262 Views

Uh... have you ever tried to navigate by the sun? Ghavrel - 22/10/2011 09:05:40 PM 260 Views
Frequently, hence the comment. Joel - 23/10/2011 09:35:31 AM 335 Views
"Why"?! So I could be a Mistborn. "Why" is the least-relevant question. *NM* Gher - 22/10/2011 07:56:16 PM 140 Views
