"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
That's pretty cool. I'll stick to gas engines for now though. They have the highest power to weight ratio and you can go around 300 miles on a fillup and can refill in a few moments time

I believe in the future the solution will be cars with electic motors and all street will have a power grid that cars tap into. This would give electric cars lightweight, and almost unlimited power and driving range.

Huge issues with that too. Hydrogen?

Tesla found a way to transmit electricity without wires; he could do it between two metal plates. He had a crazy idea to make the surface of the Earth one plate and a layer of the atmosphere the other, and transmit power for free all over the planet, but but story goes that JP Morgan pulled his funding for the project, questioning "but where do I put the meter?" Free power is not profitable.

Yeah, big industry definitely killed off the electric car early on. I'm no expert in electrical engineering, but I think that is called electrical induction, which I think is slightly less efficient than electrical conduction through a wire connection. Nowadays it would be easy to account for electrical consumption by induction.Bible_Belt said:
An electric motor is an idea motor for a car. It has constant torque, and it's much simpler than using an internal combustion engine. The problem with electric cars is the weight and limited capacity of batteries. Batteries and capacitors are getting better but they're still a sticking point and cost. So I was saying if you powered off the grid you would have light weight and almost unlimited power and driving range.
If you figure the typically cost of a Kw of electricity, I think the math comes out to the equivalent of about 50 cents/gal gasoline. And electric motor is like 80-90% efficient compared to 30-40% for a IC engine. The electricity can be produced more efficiently than the equivalent energy by an internal combustion engine in a vehicle, and from mulitiple energy sources.
The only real downside I see is electric motor emit electromagnetic energy and the effects on health are not fully known. But you can shield the motor and we use electrical devices quite a bit now with seemingly little problems. Plus there's no street level pollution.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

yes we just learned about tesla recently.Bible_Belt said:
tesla coils can give electricity to things around it
also,
everyone could have internet for free too, but it's not profitable.
