Does anybody look forward to this?
>>28767425Finally I can watch two shows on netflix while I drive.
>>28767425>stare at screen at work>stare at screen in car>stare at screen at homeYes,some people are OK with living like this
>>28767425Chinks and Poos?
whites and chinese love their screens
>>28767425Indians probably. Well as much as they look forward to anything other than rape that is
Yeah, looks fucking awesome. I bet OP never grew up watching Star Trek TNG or Voyager. Just coco melon and YouTube slop. Sad life.
>>28767495the funny thing is people in the 80s literally daydreamed about the future being like this, with cars having screens that could listen to your voice commands. and now that its here people hate it
>>28767500Turns out it's easier to be optimistic about the future while things are good in the present
>>28767458Exactly.
>>28767425Only if it flies and that's my glass cockpit.
>>28767514Since when were the 80s good objectively? lol. sounds like estrogenic millennial hands typed that.
If a half naked anime loli AI assistant takes up the big screen then yes.
>>28767559>when were the 80s good objectivelyThat's not what the poster said, fren. (S)He only said that this screen crap in modern vehicles is what people in the 80s looked forward to. That said, the 80s were pretty comfy. Used cars were cheap, so you could go through project cars like women go through shoes.
>>28767425No
>>28767559There is almost no chance you were alive in the 80s, let alone remember them, so I'm not sure why you have an opinion about this.
>>28767425Gay. They look ever more like toys instead of actual cars, something about these interiors come off as infantile and amateurish
>>28767425>comfy wallpaper >fun show running in the background >its like i am already home while commuting Why not? Its not like you have a great driving experience and need full focus while sitting in traffic.
>>28767425>barely any physical controlsAssuming I ever cared about nucars this screen garbage wouldn't bother me if there were knobs and switches for things like AC but there aren't so it's shit. Also I would bet money on these gay ass screens not surviving more than 5 years while 80s digital dashes still work fine to this day.
>>28767686>if there were knobs and switches for things like ACApparently they're going to go back to that. Having to screw around with a touchscreen for things like that is distracting enough that you essentially become a drunk driver.
>>28767425I can think of some practical reasons to have screens and important information on themI'm not sure I'd care for a mass-produced offering but we'll see
>>28767500It'd be more tolerable if the software was programmed by 160iq white guys but it's not
>>28767500They only did this because knight rider made it look cool. Never meet your heroes.
>>28767559gay zoomer hands who were convinced that being gay in the 80s was a death sentence typed this post>captcha: 21985
>>28767500That just looks for fuking feminine, like it was designed by some team of fags in San Francisco.
>>28767697That was obvious the moment they tried to force all controls into a touch screen. I'm pretty sure they knew it too but they were testing it to see whether or not the cattle liked it.
>>28767796They didn't care if the cattle liked it. They just wanted to squeeze in as much money as possible before the heat got too hot.
>>28767425Reminds me of that vampire movie Daybreakers.
>>28767425amazing. but hey, if you so much as THINK about touching your phone, it's a felonyTHANK YOU GOVERNOR CUNT BROWN AND TINA TAMPAX FOR FUCKING MY STATE UP BEYOND COMPREHENSION!!!
>>28767425>>28767437>stare at screen in carYou're supposed to be looking forward out the window around you retard. The whole touchscreen issue is such a non-issue for people who actually drive cars.
>>28767940Glowing screens affect your attention span and will make you more likely to stare at it instead of the roadhttps://www.potsdam.edu/studentlife/wellness/counseling-center/what-does-screen-time-do-my-brainhttps://www.npr.org/2017/10/09/556701181/touch-screens-are-distracting-drivers-what-are-carmakers-doing-to-helphttps://thenewswheel.com/study-from-aaa-and-the-university-of-utah-shows-in-vehicle-technology-is-dangerously-distracting/This isn't a matter of pride or ego, this is an actual psychological issue that's part of being human.
>>28767425"Yes, let's maximize distractions. Surely that is the safest way."
>>28767584And you could afford a three bedroom home on a modest salary of $40,000.
>>28767979And you could raise a healthy family without worrying about finding out your daughter has been whoring herself out on OnlyFans for the past 5 years.
>>28767940>You're supposed to be looking forward out the window around you retardwhy?the car's driving me there, what the hell do I have to look out the window for? I'll miss my reel if I look up.
>>28767544It's a car so it won't do that
>>28767500They didn't exactly count on all the spyware and connections to a power structure that fucking hates them.
>>28767425Can I use the controller to drive the car?
>>28767686>while 80s digital dashes still work fine to this day.Do we tell him?
>>28768018>I'll miss my reel if I look up.But it's a sub-optimal setup for watching reels, there is no vertical screen
>>28768831You're not going to tell me shit zoomgroid. C4 digidashes for example still work, even if they need their bulbs changed. This dumb screen shit will brick itself after 5 years and you won't be able to repair it all.
>>28768833Are the "zoomgroids" in the room with us right now?
sd
>>28767730The 80's were in fact the best time to be gayBoomer dad didn't have any strong opinions of any group until he moved to dallas in the early 80's and was repeatedly harassed by gays (and blacks)A reasonable society would've banned guys outright at the outset of the aids pandemic but we were already Zog'd by then
>>28768861And zoomers are always taught cartoonish shit like gays being immediately molotov'd on sight or something crazy like that. That's why a lot of them are scared of any time other than now.
>>28767425the gayest part is its not even futuristic to us, screens are gay and we had them for decades this is like having your work monitor strapped to your dashboard and your wood trim is replaced with the default windows wallpaperits inherently fucking pedestrian and cheap not futuristic
>>28767584>while things were good in the present The 80s werent good in the present, you millennials just had your bills paid for by mommy and daddy. No i wasnt alive in the 80s but i can look at objective reality like race riots abortion single motherhood divorce rate and violent crime spiking in the 80s. Sorry this offends millennials, but their only pride of experiencing a certain decade (literally their entire accomplishment) is meaningless.
>>28769028That only happened in the inner city slums. Life in the suburbs was cozy af. You could let your kids ride a bike through the whole neighborhood until sunset without having to worry about them being harassed by druggies or prostitutes, unlike today.
>>28767425Nah that's a bunch of gay shit that's going to break and is irrelevant to the purpose of a car.
>>28769028>you millennialsGen X. You'll never know what they took from you. I had exhaust dumps on this bad boy just for the hell of it.
>>28769018>not even futuristicCars stopped being futuristic some time in the 00's, last one being the deville with a night vision (!!) HUD overlay Hell, the average malaise barge has a more space age design than the shit put out now, despite the obvious moaning-groaning 50's tech when you actually do step on the pedal
>>28769028>bad things happened in the 80sBad things happen in every decade, so this is a useless metric. What you should be basing it on is quality of life.
>>28767500>and now that its here people hate itBecause it's the equivalent of a smart tv without the option to plug in a streaming box.Incredibly laggy and un-intuitive system, which especially doesn't work in a object that will kill somebody at a moment's notice if you aren't actively monitoring it.
>>28767437Do you stare at your gauge cluster at all times while driving?
>>28770866This isn't a problem when the gauge cluster isn't a screen. There is no big bright light psychologically hooking into you, so it's easier to spend half a second looking at it.
>>28767940Until you need to adjust some function of the car and can't rely on tactile feedback to know what you're doing so you have to take your eyes off the road to look at whatever gay capacitive touch button or slider they want you to fiddle with.
>>28768832I can get like 9 instances of tiktok open on this bad girl
>>28767425That the steering "wheel" is half a square greatly disturbs me.
Why is it so hard to make the steering wheel fucking roundI've driven with my hand at 12 o clock for 15 fucking years now
