Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
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.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

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.
