They’re two separate things. That’s the idea, a clutch is a disconnect between the engine and transmission.

A really good driver only uses the clutch to start and stop.

Anyway, another of my comments got removed without explanation, I’ll just see myself out of this misinfo echo chamber that can’t understand why people don’t post here.

I had great hopes for the fediverse idea, but the same human greed issues, like mastodon selling iut to Meta, and zealous moderation, like whatever happened to my comment and another one before that complaing about the Mudrocks and Musk.

Bon chance, fedi.

Try driving an 18-speed truck transmission without the clutch.

Who’s stupid?

Raymond Chandler’s novels, esp The Lady in the Lake

If I ran it I’d rename the dinosaur to T-rexiera

I’d like to find a small bluetooth keyboard with mechanical switches that I could use with both my.phone and my 2009 MBP running MX. I need stowable and chargeable with C.

Gamestop seems to be releasing competitive options right now.

Jawbone headsets used to be like that. When they were still in business. They made good headsets, but introduced this feature as well to change certain settings.

Apparently that wasn’t taught in business schools.

I know someone who can fix all of their stuff, and they can’t understand that book.

Stockholm syndrome?

Lina’s got her radar pointed…

Nationalist Narcissism begins.

Excellent.

Also, the D stands for diode, which is a one-way passage for electricity, some rectifiers may use diodes in their circuitry. So another way to cut costs is to not rectify completely or well.

When the DSM lists religious belief as a mental illness, I’ll grudgingly begin to respect psychology.

Meet you at Ray’s.

Lies, damned lies, and Software patents

Elon musk is an immigrant.

Mudrock family are immigrants, also were in UK while publishing xenophobia.

Shiity people often abuse the USA’s liberties in bad faith and prosper.

But govt people allowed the mergers until the media are mostly owned by them, soon there will be ONE major grocery chain in USA, apparently the Loblaw imbroglio is invisible from Wash DC, and buying and selling personal data is commonplace, not even taxed much less protected.

Those Pogo comics of them going downhill out of control are from the 50s, that pure copper penny still hasn’t dropped.

Who got bailed out in 2008? And who bailed them out?
