Why even type this out?
Do you just like arguing stupid points for fun even when you know yourself that you are wrong?
Have you never seen an automotive touchscreen before?
Even within one model/brand there are a ton of panes, and layouts. And even when you choose one layout, which apps are open changes the location and size of the buttons. Now add into that multiple brands, models, layout, and years... And your comment gets more worthless at every step.
Beyond that. The screen doesn't use haptic feedback to tell you where your fingers are so that the parts of your brain that evolved to handle that kind of context can use it without your fucking eyes. 'Oh I touched the round thing, I know there are 4 rectangles next to this' is a built-in feedback loop that a touchscreen does not provide at this time.
Do you have problems with object permanence in everyday life? or just in your car?
Fuck this rotten grifter and all of her enablers.
Thankfully they are alive and doing quite well in our little forest home in Quebec, Canada. Of all the places I used to see them as a kid almost none are still vibrant and busy, but our little corner of forest here has a good population. For now...
Your lack of knowledge of the world does not indicate the existence of a god. Cut it out.
God isn't real. This is verbal masturbation.

News report - Date unknown
In the early days of the war the Russian regime made regular threats to use nuclear weaponry, but most experts and lay-people believed that even that brutally sadistic despot would not go the extreme of destroying the earth to achieve his goals.
By 2024 Russia was doing small-scale ecocide in hopes of lending credence to their threats. Looking back, the poisoning of an entire riparian ecosystem connected to the Desna River in what was Ukraine should have been a clear signal of what was to come. But nobody listened and the nuclear weapons flew.
I am not making a joke here. This is where my brain naturally went when reading this. Let's just hope my invasive thoughts are wrong.
[Edit: I am also not saying to appease this fucking psycho either. This is just a snippet of thought that I felt the urge to share.]

15+ years working remote. I only turn my camera on when there are new vendors/clients on the call and it is my turn to introduce myself.
It's nice to be able to rely on having dog shit stupid takes from the same username all the time. Consistency is key. Keep it up.
So obviously I spent half an hour in a generative ai tool.
This doozy was shot just two days ago. I never thought I'd have a use for it on lemmy!
Location: Canada
Background: When I first started wearing glasses the optometrist would just give me a piece of paper that I could take to any shop to get my lenses made. Then they started refusing that paper and insisting I either leave my frames with them for two weeks, or that I buy new frames.
And now it seems like even asking for the script, or the measurements, is 'against policy'.
---
I recently went in for an eye exam and some new glasses, and the optician said something I have never been told before.
I had asked if they could give me the prescription for my sunglass lenses since they don't deal with the brand that I prefer, and he said that I would have to schedule another appointment at a shop that deals with that brand, because the prescription was not enough, and I would also need the measurements he took.
I asked if I could have those measurements and he said it was against policy.
Is he lying to try to get me to buy new frames from his shop? Or is there something to what he is saying?
Confession - When he walked away I took a picture of the measuring app he had used which seems to show all the measurements.
Would this be useful to another shop? I'm just trying to buy lenses without spending a fortune on yet another frame.
It all feels like a scam.
There are four from the most recent batch. But they are never all in one spot. And the parents don't come around much during the summer.
This mullein is now over 6 feet tall. It is my favorite wild plant by far.
NCSOFT & Homecoming License Announcement Hello everyone! We’d like to thank you all for your patience over the past few years, and we’re incredibly thrilled to announce that it’s paid off: NCSOFT® has officially granted Homecoming a license to host City of Heroes™. We’ll have much more to sha...
The private servers have been up a while. But it is always hard for fan projects to gain traction for devs, players, or donations, when the IP could be yanked at any time. NCSoft granting a license should provide one heck of a shot in the arm for this cult classic game.

I thought this growth pattern was weird, and on inspection it seems like it pushed up past a tiny root that is now choking it.
I was thinking of going out his morning to cut the root out.
What do the pros think?
Is there any way to be be 100% certain?
Ok, you got me. These are from last year. But the mycelial networks are kicking into high gear right about now, and I'm getting antsy for some photo hunting.
