I found the video where the image above comes from:

Literally after I posted Ling and Jun on here, videos of Tekken 8 hands on previews started coming out. Here's one that I think is OK since much of the footage out there seems to be the same stuff. For more technical folks, here's a handy image of other system things that changed:

I’ve been playing more on Roblox lately and I decided to draw randos on Realistic Sprag and Pint and I think it’s THE Roblox art experience

Legit considering doing more of these. Perhaps an art exercise of sorts but who knows 😗

beach episode complete did all the routes with my bestie, sprag

[intercal]

you spragged my spriggan!

[niconiconwo]

I need more literature on how automatic transmissions work so I can rebuild mine. I already know it's hydraulic in nature and uses transmission fluid pressure to squish the friction and steel plates and make it work. I see there are electronic solenoids doing things. But beyond that I have little information.

I need to find a good book on general A/T mechanics. Like what the fuck is a sprag? How do I use a shift chart?

Lady of Lies

>starter for: @ofdusk

When you break the news about the imposter lords to one of the villages, they naturally react in horror and shame for being deceived. However, something goes awry when the message is passed along to the village elders. A miscommunication down the line leads these leaders, half-blind and three-quarters-deaf, to believe that you are the “real Lyndis”. Whether you are or not, there is little you can do to convince them otherwise, and so they demand you make things right. [Grants +1 Authority]

Returning to the monastery only to immediately hear that Faerghus was in an uproar over imposters was hardly the worst thing he’s ever heard. Anything sounds like an easy undertaking compared to living in a nightmare for a month. 

Even the march into the Holy Kingdom was a walk in the park compared to Spa…Sprag…huh. He’s already beginning to forget little details, the bright colors of the dream fading to washed out hues. The big stuff remains—rescuing false Xander, fighting on the wrong side of a war, enduring a blizzard. Maybe it’s for the best he embarked on this not-quite vacation. 

Now, he runs a hand down his face, doing his best not to wince as yet another elder shouts for the “real Lyndis” to please come forward and put this whole mess behind them. “Hey, hey, Corrin!” swordsman calls, slipping away from the ranting elder, who doesn’t notice Laslow’s departure. “Apparently the false Lyn stole over half the village’s emergency fund.” 

A sigh. His nerves are beginning to fray, the result of well over an hour’s worth of misplaced blame heaped upon his shoulders. “There’s more, I think, though they all started yelling over each other.” Obviously, the start of soothing their ruffled feathers would be to pay them back their lost gold, though Laslow doubts that will satisfy them at this point. 

“What do you suggest, my dove?”

What Is a Clutch Plates? Uses and Types

Nowadays, traffic has become the new normal, with a surplus of cars on all roads. Ever ponder how a car moves like a person on the road?

Vehicles do, in reality, serve an important role in people's needs on an everyday basis.

Because it provides a connection between the engine and the gearbox, the clutch is one of a car's most important parts. Let's discuss the definition and types of clutch plates here with Skato Automotive, the top motor vehicle and tractor clutch plates manufacturer in India.

What Is a Clutch?

Mechanical devices called clutches are used to move power from one rotating shaft to another. They provide power to systems, machinery, and rotating assemblies across different industry sectors. The type of clutch used varies according to the demands and limits of the application.

Types of Clutches

Clutches come in a variety of designs, some of which are described here.

Diaphragm Clutches

The clutch of this kind engages by applying pressure on the pressure plate. The conical spring's diaphragm makes up the clutch. Attached to the finger or crown-style springs is the pressure plate.

Centrifugal Clutches

This type of clutch connects two concentric shafts to generate centrifugal force. The semi-centrifugal clutch also uses spring force in addition to centrifugal force.

Sprag Clutches

"Sprag clutch" is the term used for a one-way freewheel clutch.  It works in a manner similar to a roller bearing, but non-revolving asymmetric figure-eight-shaped sprags or other parts that permit single-direction rotation are used in place of cylindrical rollers.

Friction Clutches

Friction clutches are based on the notion of friction. Friction arises from the contact between the driving and driven component shafts, transferring rotational energy from one to the other.

Fluid Clutches

Fluid clutches are flywheels that use a hydraulic fluid to transfer torque from the driving to the driven component.

Single-Plate Clutch

One of the most popular types of clutches in cars nowadays is the single plate clutch, which has just one clutch plate.

Multiple-Plate Clutch

This multi-plate clutch transfers power from the engine shaft to the gearbox shaft of the car using a number of clutch plates.

Electromagnetic and Electro-Hydraulic Clutch

Through the use of electric clutches, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy. An electromagnetic field is generated when electricity flows through an electrical power source. The clutch is then engaged by dragging a pressure plate into the electromagnetic field.

The Use of Clutch in a Car

You can use the clutch in cars to change the speed without stopping the engine. You can also disconnect the engine from the wheels. This is advantageous since the engine keeps running even after the wheels stop. To get your car started, your gearbox and clutch work together.

Final Thoughts

Many premium automotive employ a variety of clutches, these could include the likes of dual clutch car systems and more.  Skato Automotive – India’s top premium car clutch plate manufacturer offers reasonable rates on used automotive. If you have doubts about which type is in which car & tractor comes with which clutch, we will help you out there as well!

Prologue

Never would you have thought that a robot-plagued city had kicked out a handful of teenagers. They were called horrible names because they didn’t want any mechanical parts imported into their bodies to help them live longer. It didn’t seem appealing to them, to have something living inside of you. Parasites, that’s what the group called them. But they were known as miracles to every citizen of Rooker.

It was disgusting, living out in the woods far from the city limits. Wearing the same baggy, dirty clothes over and over again. It was common - when they first started out - to go to bed hungry. From years in the forest, they’d taught themselves how to come home with a deer or a small rodent. They assigned roles with different jobs to each other. Some took the more dangerous jobs, such as hunting and foraging. Other younger members of the family cleaned, guarded the house, and gathered water.

This humid, sweaty day was like no other. The kids woke up first before their older siblings at five in the morning, slipping on their gear and masks. To hide their identity, they used these steel masks they had forged that had narrow eye holes like ravens. There was also a stout little beak, which was shortened since the little ones had charged head-first into each other and scratched themselves when they were toddlers.

Later on, the older children had woken. They wore masks like their siblings, but they had sharper, intimidating features. They had more gear than the others, bows equipped with quivers full of long arrows with sharp heads and daggers and battle axes. Their blacksmith must have been proud of his work.

The little ones ran around the yard, some were sowing the dirt with someone beside them scattering seeds over it. The family’s objective for today was to renovate the house more to prepare for the new room for the children. The teenagers were cutting down trees with the little axes they had and lugging around logs to cut into pillars.

If you spotted this family before - if you survived the sharp eyes of the teens - you’d be surprised at how they formed this small and quiet civilization. They had dreamed of making more huts when they started out, but they had to expand the “great house” first. It had taken years to help everyone build their skills, to be good enough for the roles they’d have for the rest of their lives. It was hard at the beginning, when the protectors the little kids knew were tiny like them. Barely living, they were like zombies.

The little ones never saw any bad in their siblings. The teenagers always called them sprogs. When the sprogs asked why, they told them it came from the word sprag, meaning a slip or cutting of a plant.

No one, - not even the sprogs, who knew everything since they always had giggly conversations - knew how they ended up in the woods. They begged and begged for their siblings to tell them, but they always told them the same story. They were kicked out of a city beyond the woods, so they lived in the forest. They were just too tiny to understand.
