maybe power tools/motors
this

just got a dremel 4300, seems fairly good but like, holy shit is it impractical I don't own many power tools so I was just like. Alright I'll pick up this it's like a multi tool right? Wrong it can only do really really small tasks. Next time I'll just buy a drill and a large bit set.

Aviation hasn't really seen anything as beautiful since. F35s are very powerful aircraft, but its style simply doesn't compare to the f14.

Dildos

how do you get into anything motorized like cars or planes?
they have so much shit going on at once, idk where to start.

still far less complicated than a modern CPU at least.

...

where's the apex seals?

ik that this is Sup Forums but i'm a newfag here all i know how to do is put together a computer.
my point is i am unaware of any sort of entry point for cars, let alone aircraft. so i'm asking if there's a good place to start.

Not only is it capable its loaded with personality like rings on a coffee table, or the antisocial goth girl who's beautiful on the inside.
Sure her poetry is horrible and yeah you'll get ragged on for dating her but, lets be honest, goth girl is going to do you right, because the blonde cheerleader doesn't think she has to do anything beyond being the hot cheerleader.
But the goth girl, she'll work for that ass, because she has something to prove and at the end of the day that's who you'll choose every single time, because she can do you in the way you need to be done.
Just like an RX-7. And when the rest of your friends wake the hell up, you'll be the one who gets to say that you wised up first.

For cars, start your research on the internal combustion engine. All of it will be too complicated at first but going deep into the wikipedia pages for all of the subsystems that lead to the full engine will start to give you an idea on how the whole thing works. From there you can start branching out to the other systems like suspension, steering and braking following the same system but always reviewing what you saw before. Over time everything becomes familiar and you begin to understand the full picture.

Owning a car helps too because it allows you to observe the effects that you read about and connect them to your own understanding.

Let me tell you about the rotary engine

The ability to preserve food stuffs via dehydration, cold storage, salt curing or pickling. It's definitely one of the staple technologies that helped human kind advance and it seems to get glanced over a lot.

start watching initial D, they throw some bits of info here and there, appreciate the 90s car culture its never coming back, then lurk /o/ for about a month or two and get in whatever "project car" thread that arises.
After that you should have a basic grasp of how the car does its thing and if possible (and you like it) get something easy to work on, like a volvo 240.

This is akin to learning watch repairs starting with an old mechanic watch that has about 35 pieces and then jumping to an automatic.

This is what I love about Sup Forums, you have a lot of people with multiple interests to talk about, it's hard to find such (ejem) diversity of interesting people out there.

The real problem with speakers and audio in Sup Forums is technological stagnation and no incentive to improve upon it. The same setup 70 years ago is perfectly acceptable today without the aid of nostalgia glasses. Sure, class D/T exists. It did 10 years ago. And what have we seen in drivers? XBL^2 came out even earlier than class T. The closest thing I can think of to "innovation" was Rockford Fosgate's PBR series, and all that did was step up voltage in the PSU so the amp could draw less current.

I unironically like the way halos look

Industrial gasturbines and heating systems(oilburners)

We get new materials, innovations happens.
I don't think that a 70 year old system will have any chance against a modern one.

Posting a stock photo full of buzzwords to describe a DVC tweeter isn't helping your point user.

It's not a ordinary tweeter with dual voicecoils. It's a tweeter with two tweeters.

I'm a spic so I can't avoid thinking of an ojota, or chancla for the non rioplantense friends.

This is what the elite use for their sacrifices, right?

that's why they sell the F35, because F35 are shit.

The only right answer

new materials and subtle technique changes, sure, but nothing significat
we went from passive horns to a floating cone of lightweight material attached to a coil surrounding a permanent magnet, and we still do that. there's been minor improvements here and there, but the basic construction hasn't changed

I'm going to go basic and say electomagnets and anything to do with them. I'm really interested in über efficient motors and Gauss rifles.

yeah it's not going to be internal combustion engines, they're fucking primitive.

I like mechanical things that kill

It's dead senpai, let it go.

Why not make the rotary bigger to have more torque and need less revs to get things moving to help with fuel economy?

Not even full suspension one.

The low fuel economy is due to a rotor firing every rotation.
Not the overall weight of the rotors.
