This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Electric buses have a battery from a probably reputable supplier, with a decent BMS.

Escooters often come from AliExpress.

There is a difference.

It's insane to ban e-bikes though since most of those come from reputable sources who are internationally recognized bike manufacturers. The people who made my electric bike also make professional bicycles for Olympians. Pretty sure the battery is reliable and isn't going to explode.

My bike has fallen into a swimming pool while switched on (don't ask) and nothing happened. Literally it didn't even register anything had happened it just carried it on.

You're not the boss of me. What happened?

The bike felt the battery heating up and wanted to cool down

That's why I never buy sapient vehicles. That and the whole "is this slavery?" issue.

I want my vehicle to be sapient enough to moan when I whip it
