  • You just have to go fast enough. The minimum speed keeping you from falling out of a circular loop is sqrt(gr), with gravitational acceleration g and loop radius r. 10m radius requires 36km/h, which might be suitable for a Jetski. Larger ships need bigger loops to physically fit, and consequently larger speeds. It’s quite surprising, but a monstrous 100m radius loop needs less than 120km/h.

    Ja. Im Verkehrssektor passiert momentan nicht so viel. Tempolimit “will” laut Wissing “niemand”, er reitet das tote Pferd eFuels bis zur Verwesung und blockiert damit eine entschiedene Abkehr vom Verbrennungsmotor, und bei Elektromobilität geht es momentan auch eher schleppend voran. Da könnte der Minister auch mal der deutschen Autoindustrie in den Allerwertesten treten. Die Bahn muss erstmal ihre Strecken auf Vordermann bringen, bevor wir über mehr Güterverkehr auf der Schiene reden können, das Problem hat er aber geerbt.





  • This was followed by Orandazuma wa Denki Unagi no Yume o Miru ka? (Do Dutch Wives Dream of Electric Eels?, Dec. 1984, PC-8801). Inspired by Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (1968), players take on the role of a private investigator who has to track down a sex doll (called Dutch wives in Japan) that has become sentient and is murdering its lovers. The player tracks down the rogue doll by seducing all the women in Tokyo’s red-light district.

    The concept sounds awesome. The porno parody “Blade Runner” needed.

    It’s reverse: you get a board that has a floppy interface on one side and a USB socket on the other. You plug in a USB drive and the board uses a file on the drive as the floppy disk, pretending to be a floppy Drive connected to the interface. It’s a little less convenient because you have to deal with disk images but it works without moving parts.
