An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

i think you may have missed the joke if you read it too fast
No I get it. Electric cars are definitely cool and have advantages, but also have some disadvantages that this just kind of ignores to make a gotcha moment
Are you expecting a joke to actually discuss both sides of a topic?
I suppose that’s a good point. I just feel like XKCD is usually a bit more nuanced than this
Where is the xkcd talking about cars?
What else would it be referring to lmao
An electric motor and gas engine. It’s the first line.
And what are the most common applications for those? People don’t just have motors sitting around attached to nothing.
Generators, fans, boats, planes, lawnmowers (sit on and push), strimmers, powered dumpers, diggers etc etc. if you Google it you’ll probably find more.
