Agreed. The tribe mindset on display shows me how users who love reddit as it is are not a good fit for the Fediverse. Maybe less advertising to that crowd is a good thing.

Adding to this, Devolution by Max Brooks. Book only

I also like earth based hard sci-fi with some mystery and horror. This book hits all three points, and is very character driven on top of that.

Signal with 2 people who actually moved there with me, standard messages app that came with Samsung for most people, and Facebook Messenger Lite for anything that works better there, or contacting people who I'm not close enough with to get their phone number.

Not interested in learning

Complains constantly

Wants things for free

Doesn't deserve your help in this area.

I see "but it does gps!" As an excuse in favor of the oversized screens. But a heads up display, reading aloud turn by turn directions, or even a set of lights to indicate where you should go would do the same thing better

And I'd like to have a word with them... About how good their idea is!

That's a great start. I am dreaming of some kind of a full dashboard and center console replacement. While I'm at it, I may as well dream of having the money to afford a car that would be new enough to need such an upgrade plus be able to afford the upgrade itself.

I think the driver should definitely have radio controls, just not through a touch screen. Passenger touch screens should be for their entertainment and their own heating/cooling settings. I think the passenger controls should have nothing to do with the way the car drives and handles, or headlights, wipers, anything like that.

My opinion is that touch screens should be for passengers only. Display screens are fine, but if physical buttons are so unacceptable, then we need voice control that actually works.

Also, I'm surprised no one has started a company to retrofit buttons and switches into modern cars. Whatever kind of headache that would be to design and install, I'd like to see it work.

same. Pick coordinates and what to say. I've seen Kbin.com and lemm.ee suggested as short and to the point banners that could be more doable in the chaos of r/place

If there can be a consensus between switching to lemm.ee or Kbin, I'd love to lend my pixel to either of those.

Oh man, so many awesomely awful jokes came in this format. Best source of dad jokes around, I miss that meme

I think if a thing like Place were made for Lemmy, it would need to be so different to fit the values of the Fediverse that it would need a new name. Different rules, different way of interaction, different output.
