Ilovethebomb,

Torque is a stupid, meaningless figure in almost any situation, but particularly in a vehicle where there is a transmission involved.

    it directly measures their ability to get up to speed

    No, it doesn’t. power measures how fast the vehicle will get up to speed, torque is meaningless unless you know the RPM that torque is being made at.

    GBU_28,

    Most legitimate torque ratings include at what rpm. Many articles do not include all the details.

    Ilovethebomb,

    That’s true, but of course the article doesn’t give an RPM range.

    GBU_28,

    So you love me?

    You’re both completely wrong. The only important measurement of a vehicle is spirit

    Tremble, (edited )

    Don’t forget to check your tires people that’s a lot of torque

    Edit: wherever the rubber meets the road

    Mwallerby,

    I thought it was style, control, damage and aggression

    original_reader,

    And here I was thinking HP might be the Hit Points.

    Delta_V,

    Only if you’re playing a mage. Otherwise you’ll want to know the vehicle’s HP, AC and THAC0.

    Ilovethebomb,

    Also wrong. If you compare two otherwise identical vehicles, the one with more power will both accelerate faster and have a higher top speed, assuming it has the gearing to use that power.

    Stop getting all your vehicle knowledge from old top gear episodes.

    Glemek,

    Torque is a stupid, meaningless figure in almost any situation

    Are you the one overtightening all the bolts in my shop??

    Ilovethebomb,

    Maybe.

    Goblin_Mode,

    20 Hit points for a car isn’t much if we’re going by traditional RPG metrics, but I suppose I’m not sure what the creators were using as a template when they made it.

    Maggoty,

    But that attack… Nnngh.

    paholg,

    Depends on how traditional you want to get. The original metric was the number of 14" shells something could survive. Given that, 20 seems pretty good for a car.

    ramjambamalam,

    So the average human is, what, 0.05 HP?

    Ich liebe die e-Busse

    SomethingBurger,

    eBussy hehe sounds like pussy

    Gen Z humor…

    ILikeBoobies,

    (B)oy p(ussy)

    It’s a gay thing not a Gen Z humour thing

    Overshoot2648,

    Well, it evolved in Gen Z humor as you had car-ussy and clussy fever.

    MrFunnyMoustache,

    Thanks, that’s pretty funny.

    InfiniWheel, (edited )

    Couple of years ago the use of slang that consisted of making portmanteaus of the word “pussy” (using the suffix “-ussy”, also word of the year 2022 IIRC) with other words rose. At first it was mostly for implying said thing was used as a pussy (thrussy: throat pussy, bussy: boy pussy) but then it evolved into a comedic way to refer to “hole of said thing” (chussy: hole in the chest as in pectum excavatum).

    In this case, this vehicle is called eBussy because it’s a tiny electric bus. But due to the slang, it can also be interpreted as “electronic boy pussy (as in a guy’s anus, for gay sex)”.

    MrFunnyMoustache,

    Oh, that’s hilarious. Thank you very much.

    So how many people fit inside your ebussy?

    At least 7

    At once, or consecutively?

    It’s X-bus nor ebusses

    I found it’s a nice concept, manually remplaçable battery, modulable, light and long autonomy

    I was excited about it as well… in 2021. They’re never going to build these and if/when they do, it will bomb hard. It has become way too expensive and there are cheaper real electric cars now. There isn’t a market for these overpriced quads anymore. Only ones going to drive these are those with a death wish.

    Annoyed_Crabby,

    It’s called an XBus now. Yes it’s not better.

    But this is actually a pretty cool ev, the bed is swappable.

    Viking_Hippie,

    Would possibly create some confusion in Denmark where the public inter-region busses are called X-Bus…

    LemmyKnowsBest, (edited )

    I don’t get it. Please tell me the double entendere of “XBus.”

    Deconceptualist,

    It’s pretty disgusting that here in 2024 they would still use outdated and inappropriate terms like horsepower and foot-pounds.

    anarchy79,
    @anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

    Footpounding is a legitimate, if waning, practice.

    For some reason one of my calc classes in college used imperial instead of metric and it really highlighted the absurdity of it

    not a single gay or young person on whatever team decided the name lmao

    or maybe there were some, giggling in the background

    undeffeined,

    We had a project once called Asset Analytics which the steering team decided to shorten to AssAnal. It lasted a couple of months until it was changed to metrics

    sfxrlz,

    I can barely imagine how funny that must have been

    Jubei_K_08,

    I bet a certain Analyst/Therapist was involved in that.

    Nikls94,

    Either it’s max defensive and evasion, or it’s the glassiest glasscannon since power-trick Shuckle.

    NegativeInf,

    I wonder what its typing is.

    I’ve also heard both “back” and “butt.”
