[–] 14 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (11 children)

A few weeks ago I attended a church service because an acquaintance invited Me and I was curious. And it wasn't a total loss; I picked up a new technique from the drummer and learned some new rhetoric against Christianity. But what's weird is, the guy who invited Me kept offering to drive Me because I don't have a car. But I like taking the bus, and I told about how driving cars is a sin because of all the pollution. And he said his petrol car is more carbon-efficient than a bus because it "has eco". I still don't know what eco is, but I know someone lied to him.

    You can just hear the salesperson saying this.

    The fact that you keep capitalizing Me makes it sound like you are God, and your friend took You to church, lol

    If you are alone on the bus, it’s worse, but I dunno how many you need to offset it. You also should travel a bit farer because of rider pooling. But ridership quantity should offset this usually

    eco is a button that prioritized fuel efficiency over performance with the engine. It does not do a whole lot but I keep it on. I might consider turning it off if I was towing something but would likely do a search and see if it was necessary or not.

    Eco is probably a particle filter. It doesn't mean it doesn't pollute, or even pollute less... Just that certain particles are now captured.
