  • EVs have no gears

    GOOD THING THESE AREN’T GEARS THEN, FUCKO
    THEY’RE MODE SELECTIONS

    EVs do, in fact, Park.
    EVs can, in fact, Reverse.
    EVs must, in fact, need to be capable of rolling free (Neutral) and it would be BETTER if you could do that by disconnecting the drive train to eliminate the risk of the “regenerative braking” system overloading its electrical system and making the battery explode.
    EVs furthermore OBVIOUSLY Drive.

    “Low” in the traditional sense is clearly not necessary, obviously, but it could be nice to have a mode selection for what people have sometimes described as “single pedal driving” where regeneration is configured so aggressively that letting up on the accelerator pedal will cause the car to decelerate rapidly without the need to touch the brake pedal.

    It’s not incest if there isn’t genetic overlap. Sorry. Don’t care. Fuck it, I’m borderline asexual and hardly even look at any porn, let alone this niche of it, so I don’t even have a horse in this race. As an outside observer, it’s a stupid pointless manufactured conflict with no grounding in reality, only as real as superstition. I will never have any respect for anyone who gets hung up on something so trivial.








  • they’ll make smaller shittier batteries that die more quickly so that they can charge more to replace them and put proprietary control chips inside them so either third party manufacturers of better batteries will have to “violate copyright” in order to make them work or YOU’LL be required to “violate copyright” to make them work, thus locking most people without the technical skills to circumvent the ‘security’ into only buying the shitty ‘official’ batteries until MORE regulation comes along to make them cut that shit out. In the mean time they’ll be blaming the regulations for the shittiness they adopted.
