>pretty much every technological innovation over the last 10-15 years seems to make our lives worse, not betteri'm not even a luddite, but why is this? it wasn't like this in the eighties, nineties, or naughties
that's just how the world works nowwe let communists and liberals take over everything and this is what they do, they make everything worse
the purpose of a system is what it does
>>108585791why would anybody build an orphan crushing machine?
>>108585783Businesses found out how to monetize the internet
The elites now have the technology to fully enslave all the wagies via digital ID combined with surveillance AI and 5G connectivity everywhere so they’re going all in
but imagine cruising to kenguru with that inline six diesel mazda
>>108585788I wish we let the communists take over everything, it's just the liberals.
Once you crush the competition you can just kill the quality and maximize profits. Companies were able to consolidate and now only a handful compete among themselves every once in a while, while the rest of the time they just maintain the status quo and enjoy the profits through price fixing.
>>108585783because the purpose of technology is not to make our lives easier, it is to make businesses able to cut costs and make more moneyonce you realize this everything makes sense
>>108585783>i'm not even a luddite, butok luddite>>108585824>enslave all the wagies via digital ID combined with surveillance AI and 5Glmao nigga are we deadass fr rn? just like power off your computer or something lmaonobody cares about you, you are not important, just don't store 'p and don't say mean words from your official account, is that too hard for an autist to do?
>>108585920there is no difference between a liberal and a communist
>>108585783What's with this new trend of making steering wheels not round?
>>108585783How is that pic related? Theres clearly improved.
>>108586113God damn you people are stupid.
>>108585783That’s fucking revolting and I don’t even drive.
>>108585783Making your life better isn't in Israel's best interest. It's not the point of technological advancement.
>>108585783don't like it, don't buy it.but you and all the normies still will, so the companies wont learn.they're like dogs you have to train them.
>Touchscreen for ventilation control>Capacitive buttons on the steering wheelMade by a person who has a collection of butt plugs
>>108586113??? bruh they're literally opposing ideologies. you folks don't even know what a leftist is, you dont know what a liberal is, you don't know what a conservative is, you just know how to follow other people and repeat what they say.
what happens when you get into an accident?
>>108586233you get to buy a whole new car because just a cracked dashboard display is enough to total the car
>>108586113This. Anyone who belabors the point is a communist at heart.
Some people legitimately think old and bad are interlinked.Like >>108586141 this. Cavemen solved the wheel. But the wheel is old, and old is bad.Does it work? That's not what I asked. I asked if it's old because old is bad. Proven and mature is bad.We need change, because change is new, and new is good. It justifies why you hired me to design for your company and product.If I don't change something then why would you pay me, change is always good, right?You see this especially in the tech sector.Non-programmers will literally look at 2 repos, one updated 4 years ago and 1 patched 4 times a day, and some will call the one receiving daily patches to be "active", "healthy", "alive", "maintained", etc. as if it's a good thing for software, cars, machines, etc. to receive daily maintenance instead of working flawlessly for 4 years straight uninterrupted.Nobody can fucking measure or analyze so they go around shooting feet, both their own and yours.
>>108586233You cry like a baby because these cars are made of wet paper.
>>108586265>>108586141more leg spaceless materialmaybe some minor advantage in knowing how far you've turned (similar to how home row keys on a keyboard have the little nub sticking out)downside is it seems awkward to use if you are actually turning that far since your hands could grasp for something not therealso you lose the leg space when you turn that farmostly it's probably just a visual gimmick to differentiate from others
>>108586272>>108586249i'm less concerned about the car being totaled than I am my wife being impaled by a 27" screen
>>108585783people are increasingly mentally ill and technology needs to adapt to deal with this
>>108585783We ran this country into the fucking ground thanks to Amazon and convenience tier services.
>>108586272the car chassis is designed to crumple to absorb energy in an impact so it doesn't get transferred into the occupants
>>108585783this is completely true. I worked in IT for 25 years and then as a hobby going back to 1985 and yes I have watched everything become harder and slower to do. things grind to a halt now if computers don't work. touch screens have made cars dangerous death traps. I refuse to talk to my phone. speaking of which doing anything on a phone is a slog. when I try to use this site on a phone I want to take a hostage.I only use my phone when I absolutely need to.don't get me started on how fucking stupid AI is and how much it lies and makes shit up.
>>108586295>the car chassis is designed to crumple to absorb energy in an impact so it doesn't get transferred into the occupantsi freaken' love science, going to go crash 100mph into a brick wall thanks bill nye
>>108586305>I refuse to talk to my phone. speaking of which doing anything on a phone is a slog. when I try to use this site on a phone I want to take a hostage.my company is doing 3-5 hours of mandatory "how to use AI" meetings every week. your post reminded me of a recent one where they showcased voice->text->llm->voice as if any of that shit is new or valuable in any way
>>108586295This only works when the impact isn't too severe and is the "ideal type" of accident, otherwise you get crushed. It simply cannot be made to cover every case. For mild accidents that wouldn't hurt you it's sure to make you spend far more money on repairs, if you don't qualify for insurance for whatever reason.
>>108585797But how many megapixels does it have?
>>108586325why did you feel the need to post this
>>108585788>communists and liberalsNo, it's chuds and capitalists.
>>108585783Late stage capitalism.
>>108586583it's a chinese communist rebadge
>>108585783Where's the speedometer screen you fucking chink kikes?Not a single fucking soul will ever convince me that looking to the side and even lower is a better system than having an screen behind the wheel.
>>108585797It's funny.
>>108586113You are fucking retardedPlease do everyone on the planet a favor and kill yourself
Whatever the problem is the solution is NOT for the people to use the elective powerful body that is meant to represent them to in any way regulate, moderate, or alter the behavior of giant corporations who are otherwise beholden to no one but shareholders whose interests do not align with actual consumers. That would immediately lead to 60 million dead trans Soviet Union Venezuela and make you a very bad goymerican. btw I know I haven't paid you back from last time but can you spot me like 500 billion thanks. don't worry bro you'll get it back soon it just has to trickle back down first thanks again bro
>>108585783Innovation is driven by demand of the top 10% of wealthy individuals instead of the top 50%.Average board member is so far out of touch they just make shit they would want or THINK people want.
>>108585783That's capitalism
>>108586717You can have capitalism without society destroying innequality like we are approaching. You just need a government that isn't bought, and is properly accountable to the people.
>>108586727how can you say we can have something that we never did? mext you will say communism can work
>>108585783The people making the decisions are profiting, be grateful.
>>108586633I'm guessing: head-up display?
>>108586651shut the fuck up you retarded commie
>>108586337>It simply cannot be made to cover every case.That was true up to the 00'sBut now they crash test cars from all angles and they have computer models to optimize the crumple zones to deal with any conditions.And modern cars really are crazy safe.The vast majority of accidents are survivable and the number of roads deaths is only a fraction of what it was 30 years ago.
>>108586098>lmao nigga are we deadass fr rn? just like power off your computer or something lmaoAll new vehicles have constant connectivity, smartphones are basically required nowadays with 2FA along with banking and government/municipal messages coming via apps and you need to be constantly available to employers and private relations. It’s only going to get worse in this regard if you’re not using a smartphone 24/7 you’re basically labeled a schizo and the system makes it impossible for you to exist.>nobody cares about you, you are not important, just don't store 'p and don't say mean words from your official account, is that too hard for an autist to do?Nobody cares about a single wagie but all of the wagies are the driving force of a society. The surveillance isn’t on one person it’s on all of the masses. The palantir surveillance AI will cross reference IPs & device/browser fingerprinting of posts made everywhere and give you a social credit score. Get a bad social credit score and suddenly you’re fired from your job, can’t get employed, all your cards are frozen and your car isn’t allowed to charge.
>>108586895What happens and who’s accountable if someone is paid to intentionally fuck up someone else’s metadata via backdoors
>>108585783Because the people selling you the technology are optimizing for profit to an insane degree.
>>108586810>morons not getting darwin'dand thats not a good thing
>>108587116It doesn’t get discovered because the whole thing will be a black box and you can’t actually look up your score it will just flag people, and the lawyers will just use the AI flag as evidence without going in detail about the calculations and the judges will just go along with it
>>108585783>pretty much every technological innovation over the last 10-15 years seems to make our lives worse, not betterThey don't "make your life worse", (you) simply dislike them for mostly emotional reasons. Back in the day boomers complained about the tech you consider making your life better no in much the same for the exact same reasons.
>>108586895>just don't store cp and say mean words>just don't store porn and say anything against the party >just don't store books and say anything unpatriotic>just get the vax or you can't buy food here>just, just, just praise the antichrist! C'mon bro, just do it, it's not that serious!I support turning NPC's into cardboard flavored sustenance crackers.
Because MBAs run the corporate world
>>108585783NOO mazda feel for the big screen meme
>>108585783>replace buttons who can be changed easily and cheap with a huge tablet that need a half a day and cost 5k to be replaced enshittification, greed, subscriptions, ads and the LINE MUST GO UP, that's it
i don't know where this idea that life is supposed to be easy or that someone promised you someday that your life would become easy at some point comes from, i think its a consequence of the last 80 years of globalization fueled by america's moral superiority after winning ww2 which is now coming to an end, that era was an anomaly in human history, you'd best come to terms with it quick

>>108585783poorfags from third world cannot comprehend that most of the car's feature you control in the center console are nowadays set and forget, like climate control that automatically heats the steering wheel, toggle ventilated seats, and even smart sound control that adjust the volume based on ambient noise. But if you still want non-touchscreen control because you have ADHD, you still have many of them on the FUCKING STEERING WHEEL YOU FAGGOTS DON'T EVEN FUCKING DRIVE LET ALONE HAVE A LICENSE
>>108588093I drive your sister pretty confidently, I must say
She's a bit of a legend on the streets, if you know what I mean.
>>108587901
>>108585783I hate those fucking screens in new cars. My friends and family think I'm a schizo for thinking it's going to cause road accidents.
>>108585783Americans keep voting for more pain, rest of the world keeps following them
>>108585783>BetterNo. Screens are cheaper and easier to monitise. The goal is to show you ads for 30 second before you even start your engine or pay a subscription for the ad free starter. Then you pay a subscription for the GPS.
>>108586233broken display. Will probably cost you 2k to replace unless you have the careplus plan for $49.99 a month. It gives you peace of mind.
Nothing wrong with a screen for most controls. What is wrong is the laggy piece of software they ship with it.
>>108585783I fucking hate touch screens. I hate them on cars, I hate them on phones, I hate them at the fucking science museum. They've been pushing that shit for literal decades and they STILL don't work as well as fucking regular buttons.
Some automakers are listening and adding back more buttons. But not the ones guided by visionary ketamine users.
