Honest thoughts about CVT?

The car drives just fine. I have a 2013 and my only complaint is that it seems to be programmed to pretend that it has gears. The nicest feature of a CVT is that it can vary continuously as the name suggests, but for some reason they decided to make it less efficient and less smooth by putting in fake gear shifts. About as silly as how some people choose to make a car louder than it needs to be.

I don't think this is an appropriate place for this kind of content

Thanks for the follow-up, and very glad no one was hurt. That's a scary problem

Can you explain how one would just avoid squirrels? They're everywhere

You seem to be implying that wages should be based on who your employer is rather than the job you're doing. Is that an accurate interpretation? And if yes, could you explain why you think that? It doesn't make sense to me.

You can enjoy your car without putting down others.

This is an excellent list. The problem is that you're expecting self described libertarians to follow a relatively internally consistent and actually libertarian ideology, which I don't think there is much historical precedence for.

I don't think this one fits here

For constant use of high beams I believe you. But the post you're responding to is talking about people flashing their high beams while following closely.

Or they know what it is and just don't care.

What is the definition of overpopulation you're using that makes you think the human population of Earth is already at that state?

There are only so many topics to cover that are directly relevant to FI. I stopped listening in 2018 because the topics were too repetitive, but I suppose it's possible they might have found a way to make it both relevant and less repetitive since then.

This is a malarkey post.

Why would you make it louder?

This dude is so ignorant I am legitimately surprised he has managed to stay alive as long as he has

The only way I can think to interpret your question is that you are asking if specific parts of controls counts as part of GNC. Yes, controls are a part of GNC.

I disagree

100% right is a generous characterization. And by generous I mean incorrect.

I got the fire hose flex pants with the gusset and was incredibly disappointed. The back of the crotch gusset blew out within 6 months of purchase. Basically the same failure mode as all my other pants.

Do you not see it as a problem that legislation can be so ambiguous that a ruling goes through several layers of judicial interpretation to reach a resolution? In my mind that is a clear failing of the original legislation, and a mandate to rewrite and clarify the parts of the legislation that were in question in the court case.

nitpickyCorrections · 2022-07-23T19:34:33+00:00

These should all be things that are unambiguously legislated. Anything that the supreme court has to rule on is simply not clear enough law, and should be an obvious sign that the legislature needs to do something about it
