All gasoline engines have a spark source. A magneto, a distributor/coil setup, or a transistorized driver/coil setup in the case of fuel injected bikes. Nearly all bikes from 1920-1990 have a distributor. The differince is that it

Sounds like Battlestar'ing your transportation. A very popular modification scene in the car world. I have converted modern cars to points and carbs, its not that difficult. No reason you couldnt drive any car with some motorcycle carb

Which is why Tesla will never have a place in my fleet. I can afford it, and love the mechanical tech, but the lack of rights and privacy is appaling. It shocks me people pay for their own piecemeal enslavement for the latest shiny thing.

They have 4 wheel disc iirc. The only positive is that with regen, they use them less, but still more than I do engine braking with a manual transmission.

Honestly, as someone who chooses not to use fb, none of these appeal to me. They are all just variations on a shitty theme. If I want social, id be on facebook. None of these have 1. Thriving marketplace 2. My parents 3. Great event plannin

Performance is not zero to 60 times. I want a car than can handle well. Going 200mph, drag racing ability is not a useful feature or qualifier.

But unlike either, they make commerce, travel and emergency services possible. What an asinine comparison.

Can anyone point to data that strongly implies there is a clear, direct, and proprotionate climate cause here? It seems more like decades of mismanagement met a dry year, which can happen no matter tue amount of 'oil company pollution&

Google is half the bloatware on my samsung. Can't uninstall, and only disbled by a hack. Start by being the change you want to see.

Or ill effects to cooling the inside of the earth? I like the idea of geothermal, but nothing is free.

Aww man, this is sad. All good things. The article makes no mention of anyone hoping to fill his shoes, which is even more heartbreaking. The tradition of kindness and personal connection is already waning. Even a 'corporate' amba

Or, you know, cash.

by Jamwinner 7y ago
Yup. People look at me weird once in a while, but cash always works. No fees. Censorship resistant, close to anonymous, and accepted everywhere, network or not. I can do without yet another app selling my data.

Bingo. Even the fashion is a signaling medium for wokeness now.

Do you have any examples? I picked one up and saw ads, some soft-hitting feelgood near-politics, and some social justice stuff, but nothing of any substance. It looked like what it was... a medium for serving ads to little girls.

Well, people who are unaware, or uncaring of the fallout, decided to install peep holes in their homes, with the implicit belif that no creep would be so vile as to actully look in. Now we have a quarter billion of those holes installed. Ne

The narrative that ads, more than actual voters, were what got the president elected is missing the bigger picture. Did ads help? Sure, but in the end, a person with a pulse and their best interest in mind made the decision in the booth, no

As far as full military, sure. But their rudimentary guided srbm's are not the best by any measure. Their best still use infrared or standard gps for guidance. That is early 90s tech by american standards. Edit: wiki shows even lower t

Companies making psychological judgemenents and discriminating based on them based on percieved medical issues? Last I heard that is frowned upon, and illegal.
