but i'd take the drop in efficency to be able to 'drive' and EV

2019-07-15 16:46:38 UTC  

yeah it has a reduction gear

2019-07-15 16:46:43 UTC  

> one gear hahaha
> two gear hahaha

2019-07-15 16:46:45 UTC  

but it doesn't like go frmo gear 1 ro gear 2

2019-07-15 16:46:45 UTC  

differential

2019-07-15 16:46:53 UTC  

not a transmission

2019-07-15 16:47:07 UTC  

@Krisemann yeah plus some other stuff. I had the basic materials class, then a lot of stuff related to silicon in specific

2019-07-15 16:47:13 UTC  

Differential transmissions are also a thing

2019-07-15 16:47:16 UTC  

@Uksio so a mechanical part can do 1 million miles, but their argument is that they dont have a lot of mechanical parts so mmuh EV good

2019-07-15 16:47:19 UTC  

so not really a 'gear' in the sense we normally use it

2019-07-15 16:47:38 UTC  
2019-07-15 16:47:40 UTC  

electronics don't have that kind of reliability

2019-07-15 16:47:58 UTC  

you can only cycle a transistor so many times

2019-07-15 16:47:59 UTC  

well, they can

2019-07-15 16:48:18 UTC  

especaially an IGBT

2019-07-15 16:48:19 UTC  

@Vindi i. thinking of making some faces robotics for custom masks. Doesn't have to be great, but decent mimicking of face motion and mouth flapping would be a good start

2019-07-15 16:48:35 UTC  

@ManAnimal yeah but, it's a lot of times

2019-07-15 16:48:46 UTC  

wut

2019-07-15 16:48:48 UTC  

an LGBT "transistor" <:whep:537906389964554241>

2019-07-15 16:48:56 UTC  

but each operation takes sometomes hundreds

2019-07-15 16:49:03 UTC  

lol

2019-07-15 16:49:17 UTC  

Integrated Gate Bipolar Transistor

2019-07-15 16:49:29 UTC  

hah, its bipolar

2019-07-15 16:49:30 UTC  

Used for power electronics

2019-07-15 16:49:34 UTC  

yup

2019-07-15 16:49:37 UTC

that's what she/her said

2019-07-15 16:49:50 UTC

There are many non gears then: DSG the newest Königsegg transmission

2019-07-15 16:50:20 UTC  

I'm still watching tesla bjorn in the background eating mcdonalds while supercharging his tesla

2019-07-15 16:50:22 UTC  

don't ask me why

2019-07-15 16:50:28 UTC  

They are non-conventional

2019-07-15 16:50:32 UTC  

CVT is retarded

2019-07-15 16:50:35 UTC  

'supercharging'?

2019-07-15 16:50:45 UTC  

that's what tesla chargers are called

2019-07-15 16:50:47 UTC  

weighs more than manuals so manuals get better economy

2019-07-15 16:51:02 UTC  

how to make an electrical car hum like an ICE.. hmm

2019-07-15 16:51:19 UTC  

DSG is a neat design

2019-07-15 16:51:24 UTC  

make the battery inefficient

2019-07-15 16:51:26 UTC  

that is the biggest drawback with using the DC starting motor
