    Cars shouldn’t be loaded with user-facing technology. Bring back analog dashboards and buttons for climate control!

    I don’t want to have a subscription for everything. It used to be possible to pay a one-time fee for software and use it as long as I want. Now I have to pay a monthly fee and once I finish paying, I can’t use the software anymore. And it’s not like I constantly get updates for the software. Often it stays the same for months or years.

    I understand that software has a price, but no way these prices are sometimes justified…

    Smart tech in general is annoying and dumb. I want my TV to just be a tv with inputs, I don’t need built in firmware and updates to shove ads in my face. I don’t want my car to have a touch screen to adjust the A/C, just give me a knob or buttons.

    I have three:

    • They don’t make things like they used to
    • We don’t need all these damned computers in everything
    • Modern music sounds like crap

    I’m 17.

    Music in restaurants and bars is just too loud. I know why the music is loud, but I am still going to shake my fist at it like Grandpa Simpson.

      I’ve thought this since I was young. Background music? Cool, keep it quiet so we can talk.

      Does this mean loud music is bad? No, I’ve been a put my head in the PA speakers metal head since I was young too. But I don’t expect a waiter to serve me then.

      Beyond that, it’s a known problem that as you get older audio distractions become more severe, and I’m sure there’s a neurodivergent dimension to it too, so it’s one of those things where we are actively punishing people for wanting to be out and socialise. Also sure it’s one of those things where everyone thinks they have to do it but don’t

      Same. It’s getting worse over time too, I can hardly hear anything anyone is saying in restaurants and bars anymore.

      I felt my inner boomer grow stronger after writing that.
