I have been a patron for almost a year now I guess and I never expected to see a video of this sort, probably ever again.


Ah my namesake and fellow gandy dancer.


I call it salting and I do it religiously.
Or do I?


I hope they never recover. No ill will to the working level who would be impacted, but it needs to be clear to companies that this shit is TOXIC to your brand to even consider in 2026.


Which is why I will never buy a car made after 2015 if I can possibly avoid it. If I were writing the rules,
My car should not be capable of pay-walling any features
Just like my phone, I should have fine grained control over what data my car shares and with whom
No vehicle controls that may need to be accessed while driving should require more than one click on a touchscreen to access
Any touchscreen UI should be easily controllable from a steering wheel type d-pad
No non-entertainment vehicle controls should be primarily accessible from a touchscreen
Any controls that affect the speed, position, size, or access of the car should only have secondary touchscreen controls that are upstream of any failures modes in the primary physical control; in other words, a UI control should only be a backup method for important functions of the vehicle, and they shouldn’t be able to break the main method if they break


When I had to reluctantly buy a used car, I made it a point to buy a used car no newer than 2015 and this is why. Well this and touchscreen mania.
Ironically it is comments like these that led to Reddit gold. But thank you kind stranger for saving me having to descend into The Depths for this.
