Unfortunately it looks like the non-porn site links are down, but google "naked woman skydiving dubbed" and click on the xvideos link. I don't want to link it here in case someone is on their work connection / VPN and gets in trouble.

I want the nose from the 1400HP mach-e running the 1/4 mile piped over my Leaf's speakers. Right until I hit 15mph, then it just cuts to the Leaf's normal whirr.

Straight cut gears in everything, remove insulation or create channels for the sound to escape.

um excuse me posted:Here's the thing that I don't get. The engine noise isn't ever what I listened for before crossing a street. The tire noise is. Above, like, 20 mph it's louder than most cars' engines. In parking lots my head is on a swivel because in my mind every car is about to back out of it's spot. In busy cities I don't trust drivers to observe crossing signs so I'm paying attention to traffic there. What exactly is the use case for electric cars needing additional noise? Totally depends on the EV. I used to drive an i8, and now have an i3. The i8 already had pretty tiny tires for what it was, the i3 basically has bicycle tires. I had the luck to talk to one of the developers of both car's drivetrains a lot, and of course the tires come up at one point, where he basically said "when you are trying to gain every single mile/km from the battery, you start to use tires that make sense instead of "looking good"". The i3 with it's tiny tires is super quiet, and even with the i8 I had problems no running over people that simply didn't hear me. Then comes the situation where maybe someone is running with earplugs in, who would clearly hear engine noise, but not a nearly silent EV running up to him. I think the noise makes sense. I heard what I believe was a Renault Zoe couple days ago with the "whoawhoawhoa" beeing emitted, and it was neither disturbing or annoying, but definitely audible enough to realize somethings driving along tl;dr: some companies put really, REALLY tiny tires on the EVs/Hybrids to maximize range, and they are very, very quiet

if you want an i3 the LAPD is selling theirs after wasting an absolutely laughable amount of money on them https://thecurrentreview.com/News/Heres-Where-LAPDs-BMW-i3-Fleet-is-Now/#wbb1 but please, lets give more money to these idiots.

No, you see, in a busy city, you need to be sure that pedestrians can hear an EV over the cement trucks and dump trucks crashing through intersections, restaurants blasting music out onto empty patios, homeless people shouting at ghosts, ICE cars with noise for the sake of more noise exhausts, jackhammering, concrete sawing, even the loving sparrows are loud noise pollution that nobody seems concerned about because they all wear noise isolating/cancelling headphones everywhere so they don't go loving deaf. So let's make a quiet vehicle noisy so we can be part of the problem that we refuse to acknowledge exists!

Bbbbut blind people! You run over blind people! Trust me we do a drat fine job running over sighted people in this city, and nobody gives a poo poo about that. Do we really need to legislate noisemakers? How about we enforce traffic laws, and change poo poo where cars and pedestrians can occupy the same space so that they don't/can't/shouldn't ever have to. Oh wait we can just force the manufacturers to slap a white noise bandaid on it at very little public cost and say it's to help blind people, instead of getting poo poo right in the first place? Let's do that then.

EVs should just lean in on the space ship noises. Have options to pick between various types of space ship noises. They could even sell DLC with various movie/show/cartoon tie-ins.

BMW is already looking at charging a recurring fee to enable options like heated seats, so I could totally see them selling car noise DLC.

Mahatma-Squid posted:They're pretty good cars, just not a great value proposition new. I know, I love mine to death. The thing is pretty ugly from the outside, but the interior is a work of art, and it feels like entering the Tardis because it looks small from the outside, and once you enter it, it's like....big! Mine is still the launch model, small battery etc. We have a huge incentive going over here at the moment to help the car industry where you get betwenn 9000 to 11000 EUR off of a purely electric car (plus even more incentives when you use it as a company car). So I actually thought about selling mine and getting a new one, with the bigger battery (with all incentives off, dealer discount, and taxes off, it would have been something like 25000 EUR for a new i3s). But testdriving some more recent EVs (like the VW id.3) they are basically another evolution step above the i3, so I decided against it. As you said, you just get a lot more for the money from more recently developed EVs. I still love mine, and it won't go away soon. tuo fucked around with this message at 07:03 on Sep 5, 2020 |
