They gotta pay if they want to obviously. Thatâs his core business.
I finally figured out what unsettles me about that progressive commercial with the black guy who looks like Darryl from The Office singing the Pet Shop Boys - Letâs Make Lots of Money, along with his metallic hood ornament.
It makes no sense that a sentient hood ornament would be happy and smiling. She has no lower body. She canât go anywhere. What does she do all day if Darryl-lookalike isnât driving? Youâd think sheâd be like the genetic experiments in Blade Runner - or Alien IV - just saying âPlease kill me. Kill me now!â
I had an uncle who was a mechanical genius. No formal training though. Probably only a couple of years of school. He had an idea for a perpetual motion machine. I couldnât convince him it wouldnât work.
I had an idea for a perpetual motion machine that I enjoyed throughout Jr. High and tried to build it, stopped believing in HS, and was then happy that I could prove (not just by saying âBreaks the Laws of Physicsâ, but by analyzing the forces) it wouldnât work in my first year college physics class.
eta: Chevy Bolt does have regen braking.

DId it involve magnets? I have a hunch magnets are well-represented in the perpetual-motion scene.
Hideous. No sympathy at all for him.

Old, old joke, but nevertheless:
Kid goes to school and comes home with this question as his homework: What is two plus two? So he shows it to Dad. Well, Dad doesnât know so he says âWhy donât you ask our neighbor? Heâs a mathematician.â So the kid dutifully goes next door to ask. Mathematician says âFour. Forever and always, four.â Well, the kid is a bit of a skeptic, so he decides to ask the neighbor on the other side, an engineer. Engineer says âWellâŚit depends on things like the coefficient of sliding friction and fiber stress in bending, but it should be something near four.â Well now the kid is confused. So he goes across the street to ask the economist. Kid asks âWhat is two plus two?â Economist shrugs and says âWhat do you want it to be?â

Thanks to a cheat sheet, I think the increase in potential energy of the 10kg object lifted 10m is 980 J?

Having identified as such an apparatus for many years, I can understand the motivation.
