140 years after the automobile, most drivers can't or won't repair their car!

140 years after the automobile, most drivers can't or won't design and produce new automobile products.

Isn't that a closer analogy?

Car user manuals used to tell you how to refill the battery. Now they tell you not to drink what's in the battery.

FATHER, I CRAVE THE FORBIDDEN JUICE

[–] MothmanDelorian@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's because we don't need to fill our battery anymore. The warning is because of those older folks who did sip the battery acid.

Nah, it's because they can change you for the battery, but you could sue them for drinking the juice.
