    Electric cars are quieter until they go faster than 30 km/h — then tyre noise makes them loud again.

    Also at that speed they can be louder than an old car that has skinnier tires (assuming the old car doesn’t have any exhaust leaks)…

    The thing I find most fascinating, yet confusing, about the Amish is that they do use technology. They’re okay with it if it was invented before a specific period in history.

    I find it so fascinating because it’s so arbitrary.

    “This specific technology is good to use. This should not be a part of life”

    Absolutely fascinating.
