LMAO, f keys, when I switched I instantly fell in love.

  • No more digging for keys
  • No more fumbling
  • Much easier to unlock with full hands
  • Really easy to leave the car running and lock it from the outside
  • The key can be ANYWHERE in the car e.g. gym bag

When it comes to cars, half the time I swear the complaints are just old car heads who just hate those "new fangled features". Like the need for "manual" transmissions because automatic sucks, automatic transmissions haven't sucked for a long while now. Initially it did, but it's quite refined now.

Fuck the subscriptions though, I want the "fancy electronic features" just sans subscriptions and data collection

There isnt a single car on the market where you get the fancy features without the data collection.

[–] 50MYT@lemmy.world -4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes, but I am sure some of the new cars you can turn off the data collection. Not all, but also not most.

and just because I know for a FACT you're not going to watch any of those, here's a simple, plain English analysis by the Mozilla foundation.

Corporations are not your friend. They do not care about you. They will fuck you over, they will sell your data, and there's currently nothing you can do to stop them. There are no new "data friendly" cars.

Clicked on the one with the cat thumbnail. No cat was present in the first few seconds of the video. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
