But all displayed item from bottom panel is item from the 80s and 90s though, so precomputerised kinda either mean carburetor or primitive ecu that only control very limited function and can't scanned with a scanner tool, which is still imo bad. As an automechanic I certainly doesn't want to go back to scratching my head trying to figure out what's wrong.
Edit: not to be too pedantic about it, but that's what i get from this comic.
The comic is bullshit, your bullet points even more so. Except the one second to last. But then again, why the fuck are you driving in the city center? You are part of the problem.
My favourite cars to own were made between 2003 to 2011. They’re so peaceful to drive compared to modern cars that constantly fucking screech and ding at you just for starting the damn thing.
I’ll buy something other than a ‘gas guzzler’ the second I’m not required to trade away my privacy to go electric, and can disable every single last beep, ding, screech and other unnecessary sound some stupid fuck thought was a good idea.
Wow, your arguments are so solid! I'm totally convinced!
Good luck self hosting something to message your contacts.
E-mail is a thing.
Pre-telemetry cars from the naughties are the sweet spot. No cell connection either. New cars are icky.
You could get one by installing an aftermarket ECU and a fuel injection system in a car from those eras. It's probably harder than most people would be willing to do, but it's definitely doable
All your friends are on a group chat and they will periodically mail you the updates. Sure, why not?
Oh how I long for the day someone invents a car without a touchscreen.
Ðe peer group really is a concern. And OSS kind of stinks for normies much of ðe time.
I got ðe family on Circles, and my SIL (ðe one with ðe toddler) loved it... until it lost all of her posts for ðe family, and ðen shut down.
I really like the blog and videos of Reject Convenience, he actually does something similar with his own life.
I'm going back in a lot of areas, yeah.
When you make a wrong turn, sometimes you need to go backwards to correct and go forward again
Dude walked face first into that one.
you lost contacts with 95% of your contacts you used to hear through apps. Last time you met a group of friends was when you randomly met them in a restaurant having a dinner together. “We invited you but you didn’t reply”. The 5% still calling you wants your money.
Having done that I don't miss 95% of that 95%. The real ones will follow you. The rest know how to find you.
I think the point is that we're deluded to think that voting with our wallets does anything. You still work. You still buy. You still support the system. The one step you're taking only gets you partway from the couch to the refrigerator. It doesn't get you out the door and into a protest that would actually make a difference.
As someone who walks everywhere....I am not fit. So no flip side. It's uphill both ways
or, you know, you can have best of both worlds with open technologies. tech that you own and control.
