Bobyboy101 Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 I hate to say this but the black sand beach is no more, it got covered over by lava? so it is now known as the black rock beach? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 I think hybrid cars recycle energy that is otherwise wasted and stores it in the battery(s). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOAethyr Posted April 1, 2006 Posted April 1, 2006 Lol . I was'nt sure, but it seemed real enough. I even went through the trouble of tracking down post's from oscar_wu to find this: WinReload.rar I had it once before, temp like. I re-dl'ed it to keep it before I lose the link... It saves the cmos reloaded banks from rom. I guess you can save into the rom too but I never messed with that, might be worth something. You had me that worried, so I covered my bases lmao. Can't be losing the goodies. I was gonna ask, but did'nt before I went to sleep. Since you guys wer closing, I figuered might as well open up the beta forum section to the public. That way some of us could get any other bios goodies that never made it public for the boards we have and that are'nt being continued on support. Guess that idea is out ^^. Nice to see the forum is still around. Good joke hehe, convincing enough. Continuing on while that was going on, like it was'nt happening, did'nt seem right and all, so wishing the best of luck was the logical thing to do.

Kandoo Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 I think hybrid cars recycle energy that is otherwise wasted and stores it in the battery(s).Correct, It converts brake energy into electrical power and stores it in the battery.

Guest drteming Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 I guess we're hijacking the thread. BMW is working on a conventional internal combustion engine/steam engine hybrid. Waste exhaust heat is used to generate steam in a dual circuit closed system driving a steam engine connected to the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine. They're predicting a 15% increase in efficiency at steady state cruising (gas/electric hybrids don't do so well at steady state cruising). Google it. It called turbosteamer.
