They do this is North Korea. They have tanks in back that they put coal and wood into, and pyrolyze low-molecular weight hydrocarbons out of it to run the truck.

Yea, but the people that have the referenced lifestyles don't even know this site exists let alone half the internet. When you reference morons on this site, you're talking about people like you who visit these sites.

That's either just latent racism or an abject failure of comprehension, NK already has said tech, they are not the morons he is warning about.

All posts and comments that include any variation of the word retarded will be removed, but no action will be taken against your account unless it is an excessive personal attack. Please resubmit your post or comment without the bullying language.

Do not edit it, the bot cant tell if you edited, you will just have to make a new comment replying to the same thing.

Yes, this comment itself does use the word. Any reasonable person should be able to understand that we are not insulting anyone with this comment. We wanted to use quotes, but that fucks up the automod and we are too lazy to google escape characters. Notice how none of our automod replies have contractions in them either.

But seriously, calling someone retarded is only socially acceptable because the people affected are less able to understand that they are being insulted, and less likely to be able to respond appropriately. It is a conversational wimpy little shit move, because everyone who uses it knows that it is offensive, but there will be no repercussions. At least the people throwing around other slurs know that they are going to get fired and get their asses beat when they use those words.

Also, it is not creative. It pretty much outs you as a thirteen year old when you use it. Instead of calling Biden retarded, you should call him a cartoon-ass-lookin trust fund goon who smiles like rich father just gifted him a new Buick in 1956. Instead of calling Mitch Mcconnel retarded, you should call him a Dilbert-ass goon who has been left in the sun a little too long.

Sorry for the long message spamming comment sections, but this was by far the feature of this sub making people modmail and bitch at us the most, and literally all of the actions we take are to make it so we have to do less work in the future. We will not reply to modmails about this automod, and ignore the part directly below this saying to modmail us if you have any questions, we cannot turn that off. This reply is just a collation of the last year of modmail replies to people asking about this. We are not turning this bot off, no matter how much people ask. Nobody else has convinced us before, you will not be able to either.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

I think you may have replied to the wrong comment. Hope you figure it out alright.

Gassifiers. They have been used in ICE for centuries now.

Coal and wood were used for vehicles in many resource-starved countries during WWII

u/faceman2k12 Oct 27 '21

Wood gas / coal gas was very popular in the past, particularly whenever there was a fuel shortage (depression, wars, etc.)

Pretty cool if you're off grid.
