and grits straight off Natalie Portman.

Go on…

At a point where a drive unit has to be rebuilt, it’s going to be hundreds of thousands more miles than an ICE would have on it when it requires a rebuild, and engine rebuild means “lifetime” is over. It’s effectively a new engine after that.

It isn’t an interval, though, it is lifetime. I’m apparently continually failing to make that point.

120k is only the warranty period on the drivetrain/battery, and I’m using it as an example, for parts that have zero maintenance, and are guaranteed for an amount of miles most people never even put on an ICE vehicle that otherwise requires oil changes every 3k-5k miles.

put back the old fluid

Irrelevant. Even being in the position of having a drive unit serviced at all is outside the norm or intent for lifetime of the vehicle.

Dude, this is utterly ridiculous nonsense and no one should be having their Tesla motor drive units cracked open to change lubricants. Not only does it void the 120k mile warranty, but it proves you have no experience with them.

You may as well be telling me to have my rear diff rebuilt on an MX-5 after 10,000 miles.

CCP supporters = wumao

The motors are sealed and will last long beyond drivetrain warranty periods (which is 8 years, 120k miles on Model 3/Y). Battery packs do have a coolant that is intended to last the life of the vehicle, though I’ve heard of it being drained/replaced after maintenance where someone had failed valves in the coolant system.

ICE vehicles break down far faster, requiring loads more maintenance and parts replacement over their lives, even when properly maintained. More moving parts, more friction, more points of failure.

Since I once again have to get serious after a shitpost, Most EVs definitely don’t, because most on the road are Teslas, and there is no oil to change in their regular service.

Hm… actually are they incorporeal AND massless, or just incorporeal?

If just incorporeal, you’re right of course that initially after death they’d be falling back and forth, but over time through uneven gravity/curvature and through heat loss (stretching of unequal acceleration applied across the ghost essence, potential energy conversion, yadda), they should generally settle to the center after some time, unless there’s a maximum natural pressure of ghosts at whatever temperatures they have, so they may spread out somewhere within the crust if there are enough of them.

If they’re incorporeal AND massless, then I totally F’d up and they’d fire off at light speed as soon as they shed their mortal coil.

That’s called General Relativity and Reference Frames.

Start watching PBS Spacetime if you actually want to get into it.

You’re also entirely missing the point of the comment that was a joke entirely re-explaining the “reason” for ghosts ending up at the center of the Earth, which is implied by the original comment.

Mass distorts spacetime, which to an outside observer appears to change the direction light travels. The light travels in a straight line.

Gravity doesn’t alter the particle’s trajectory (or ours, for that matter). The warping of spacetime from Earth’s mass causes our movement through space to accelerate “down” at ~9.8 m/s^2

So the ghosts are in the center of the Earth, in nearly literal hell.

Putin licks dildos that were in Lavrov’s ass.

The previous statement is absolute truth because I declare it so. Now run the story on RT and Pravda and whatever other propaganda rags run BS like this.

Downvoters don’t know Brave is the best thing for iOS users.

Ya see, Android fellows, Apple forces everyone onto webkit in iOS, and iOS Firefox can’t use extensions.

Brave has its blocker built in.

Not high ranking enough for the AA gun. Sad.

Bah! This is clearly a windows meme! Take it back to c/linux!
