  1. Who are they talking about?
  2. I hope they never get a partner because who know where their lips have been too

(Thinking through that last one they probably want a “pure” virgin)

Why is that? It’s not an efficiency thing, EVs are far more efficient than and manual will ever be. It’s not a shift thing, humans haven’t been able to outshift automatics for quite a while and EVs don’t have gears. The only think I ever hear is a flimsy “soul” thing, which frankly EVs give power to masses more than any Mustang GT could. Hell, Hyundai started putting in fake “gear shifts” into their EVs for people who wanted that.

Yeah the nice thing about EV motors, they can vary their power output hundreds of times per second so they don’t need a transmission as it can basically do everything a transmission can right from the motor. Some cars even put the motor in the wheel so you don’t need a drive axle. Overall the mechanical complexity of EVs are greatly reduced.

For an EV conversion it makes sense that you’d lock things to a single gear as you wouldn’t want to stress out the transmission from sudden power variances.

manual transmission EV

For what reason? Almost all EVs only have a single gear. The high performance ones will have two as most and that’s well into the triple digit mph. Reverse doesn’t require seperate gearing either.

Here’s the why in case anyone is wondering. It’s not a global issue.

Final Fantasy VI has almost 30 minutes of credits. Well worth it for the 50+ hours you can put into it. And the music is so worth it (it’s an epilogue more than just scrolling text)

I mean it still works since a camel (the animal) wouldn’t fit anyway. And can be interpreted as a possession.

I remember when cable was analog, channels you didn’t pay for were blocked with a frequency filter. let’s say channels 13-60 were 425-475Hz (purely an example) there would be a little device connected to your coax that would filter it out. The thing was though, they did this in the cable box usually in your yard. So all you had to do was go out at night, pop the box open (wasn’t hard) and remove the filter to get free channels.

Then they moved to digital and all things changed.

I like how over time he went from curious but trying to think through things logically to just tired of the doctor’s shit and calling him on it.
