Edit: Looking through my purchase history, I've spent just over 500 dollars on my Steam account.

I suggest a separate thread for this.

Pretty nifty, I took the picture.
eh might want to watch out where you're standing/where your light is coming from.
that shadow is kinda ugly imo :/

6 weeks isn't nearly enough, given that doctors usually suggest you ejaculate solo (iirc) about a dozen times before you come in and do a sperm count to ensure that you're actually shooting blanks.. Then again the 6 weeks is just in lab rats, maybe it would be more/less effective in humans...

I'd honestly rather go under the knife.

Looks like a nice innovation in drive tech. Any thoughts?

Looks complicated but has fewer moving parts than a normal automotive transmission.

Also, wtf this was invented by a plumber?

Pretty clever, reminds me of voltage dividers.

I do like the lack of moving parts compared to a standard transmission and the overall simplicity. It appears that it can be built to be very compact.

However, I do not like the component failure outcome. If your secondary motor (little electric on the side) fails, you are instantly in top gear. To sit in neutral, you must run the secondary drive at precisely the same speed as the main drive. This would be easy to overcome with a mechanical disconnect like a clutch.

I agree with the need for a clutch.  But still, pretty fucking cool.
