You can also use those same balls to capture people. And eat them.

Everyone seems to need instant gratification in every aspect of life. No one seems capable of thinking for more than 25 seconds into the future. The pervasive culture of “Fuck you, got mine”, and the rat race to the almighty dollar. I don’t get it, it’s sad, and it’s the driving force behind not wanting children. The world sucks, and I want to reduce suffering.

That’s likely the case, but the clock application is very much something I would not only expect to come with the operating system, but would consider it a solved problem in the first place. I should not need to look for a FOSS clock. It should be standard feature everywhere, and just work. I could have whipped out a passible clock app second year of university.

Oh man, my wife bought a 2023 Rogue, and the seatbelt notification goes off for all three back seats, even if no one is back there! And you can’t turn it off! The dealership recommended just buckling all the back seats by default. It is, by a pretty wide margin, the most irritating thing about that machine. I understand the frustration. I guess I’m more diligent about the front seat buckles, because I’ve never even seen the front seat buckle light.

I’m from an era where jailbreaking and installing whatever you’d like on a device was the wild west, and have seen nasty stuff accidentally sideloaded. Giving people the option to infect their cars with ransomware could get people killed, so not opening that can of worms isn’t the worst idea necessarily. That said, FOSS stuff is usually fine, but I highly doubt it would be a fully encompassed ecosystem that you’d be installing. It’ll have add-ons, other smaller projects. Tweaks. That’s where you’ll get into trouble.

But… you should really wear a seatbelt. Actually, haven’t cars been giving users seatbelt alarms for like… over 30 years now? It’s a strange hill to die on, friend.

Yes, absolutely. I do not, however, like the idea of “Pay us $1M or we disable your brakes on the highway” kind of ransomware attacks.

I’ve got an original Pi running PiHole, I’ve got a Pi4 running my Plex + Servarr Suite, and a Pi2 B running a LAMPP stack and dev environment.

Fair enough! I mean, that would be really nice tbh. Also it makes me realize that consoles only exist for DRM, which is sucky. Granted, I stopped buying consoles almost a decade ago, so I never stopped to think about it.

Small nitpick. I’m not sure why you don’t like the idea of the vendor having stuff installed on hardware they make, to ensure it functions optimally. Like, on a primary compute device, sure, be picky about the OS. But this is a game platform. Nobody gives a shit that Nintendo makes their own OS for their hardware, why does anyone care how the Steam Deck does it’s thing?

If people could pay double, things would cost double. Quality likely wouldn’t change.

People quit managers, they don’t quit jobs.
