Wouldn't the phone have to have your fingerprint stored in order to compare it to the one scanned?

Wow. I could just picture a pile of ebikes so catching fire. I've seen pictures of bike racks in China. I can only imagine the bicyclier horror.

Thanks for the reply. My wife and I have ebikes with the batteries built into the frame. I love mine but now I'm concerned about charging them. I usually do it overnight in the garage. When I build projects I use NiMh batteries. Almost as good, cheaper and safer.

I'd like to know if those comments are true, about not leaving Lithium ion batteries charging too long. There are four things that will cause a lithium ion battery to go Thermo-nuclear:

  1. Shorting them.
  2. Trying to charge them after the voltage has dropped below a certain level.
  3. Overcharging them.
  4. Exposing them to air (punctures).

Due to this, all lithium ion batteries require a battery management system. Leaving them plugged in should just cause the battery manager to stop charging them until they need charging again.

Comments? I'm guessing some of these fires are caused by poorly implemented BMS systems.

Professorozone , to No Stupid Questions in Is it generally safe to walk through a field of cows?

Don't know anything about this from personal experience, but I thought I heard a report a while back about a fairly large number of hikers in the UK injured or killed by cows. So I'm guessing, not as dangerous as crocodiles but still best to be careful.

I heard that a while ago many VPN services were bought by the very people you use a VPN to protect against. How do you know which ones are safe?

Professorozone , to memes in Neverminding the evidence to the contrary.

I'm sorry but this is equally terrifying as the real thing.

Up to a max. So paying a little in the foreign country will not invalidate ALL taxes owed in the US. You might still owe some. Just FYI.
