I’ve never had a car with a touch screen or whatever fancy centre panel - but I have scrapped old cars because the ECU decided that there was an airbag fault which was not resolved with a new airbag. I’m a full time sysadmin/developer - my car does not need a computer to go, and if it must have one, it shouldn’t be a brick covered in epoxy.

I somewhat long to return to dumb electromechanical components like distributors, rather than unimaginably expensive, irreparable, interdependent systems.

😑🖐️ “increase productivity”

😎👉 “Protect workers from harm associated with repetitive physica labour”

I don’t feel like this is a technology post, purely another anti-consumer business decision being levied against us.

As for the whole “piracy has rejoined the chat” “hello old friend” discourse - pirate what? The One Piece live action? Post-Cavil Witcher? TV hasn’t been worth watching in a good while, netflix even longer. I barely turn mine on anymore.

Okay, noted, buy all my Ubisoft and EA games through G2A etc 😂
