I’m going to humbly disagree with your premise. Ice engines only seem simpler because we’ve been doing it for so long that it seems normal, but the concept is insane when broken down. This is a machine which translates thousands of tiny explosions into smooth rotation at the wheels. An electric motor only has one moving part, and no metal on metal contact except for the bearings.
Electric vehicles still have to adhere to the parts and documentation availability standards of ice engines, it just feels different because you’re talking about primarily electronics parts rather than something that a machinist could make for you like we’re currently used to. It’s true that you can’t troubleshoot an electric vehicle without a multimeter, and a code reader, but you also can’t fix an ice engine without wrenches, a variety of consumable fluids, proprietary gaskets and fittings, etc.
Additionally, ice vehicles subjectively have a more open source feel to them because of the complexity inherent to the design. You can add power or change the dynamics of the car by modifying the intake, exhaust, valve profile, spark timing, and a million other things, but that’s because all those are factors in the way that it works. An electric motor doesn’t have any of that, and unless you want to modify the power going into the motor in a way that it was not designed to handle, there’s really nothing that can be changed due to the simplicity.

I feel like you wrote another six paragraphs about all the reasons why she asked your wife that specific question before deleting it all… I feel that feels.

I can understand that. You might want to look up what the definition of a synapse is, but honest questioner seeking real answers in your area: your crush, presuming no ethical, or moral complications, would you rather she A: let you give her a 5-minute foot massage with oil, or B: show you her bare breasts from six feet away. Defend your answer with citations as necessary.

It’s jealousy dog. Attractive women don’t go letting everybody see their boobs and butt for no reason. Is a trip to a public pool just like an unyielding, diamond hard erection for you people?

Not enough info. What wattage of microwave? What size and filling of the burrito? Is he allowed to drink water and/or wine between bites? Have you recently modified the DNS settings on the microwave?

Them: white Kevin
You: dressed in a full body banana costume while awkwardly carrying a cinder block. Refuse to explain why, or talk about anything except a ranked list of the worst smells you’ve ever experienced. Destination is a closed public library at 2am. Say “well, it’s time to do the thing I came here to do.” Stand, watching them until they walk away.

Did the probe buy you dinner first? I imagine it was awkward with the radiologist being a third wheel the whole time.

Ya. I assumed the D was for Diana, but that dialogue wasn’t in the original cartoon right? It’s been a while since I’ve watched it, but the cartoons of '90s and 'aughts were a pretty wild ride by current standards.

The balls often get neglected. Give them a little gentle attention too. Basically, do the kind of things that would feel good if done to your breasts (cupping them, light scratches and tickles, a gentile squeeze, a medium tug, ect.). Combined with a halfway decent stroking or sucking, it’ll take care of most guys in pretty short order. Any other questions you don’t want to ask someone who you’ll have to see again? Happy to educate. I’m a male nurse if that somehow makes it less weird.

They can only do that for about half of one body length though. It’s not really a run, so much as a spring forward to surprise something with their murder mouth, and then pull it back into the water.
