Strangely topical for me. I wasted yesterday telling myself I was smart enough to make SwayWM on Wayland work well with my 1070. Should have trusted the warnings in the documentation; hubris cost me a weekend day!

I noticed I was blocked today when connecting via the same VPN I’ve used for years, including back when I was a user. That’s fuck up enough for me.

I was with you up until the climate controls.

Any control you can find in a 1997 Hyundai Accent should be physical.

Anything else can be hidden behind a touchscreen because I’m not going to use it while driving anyway.

My big request would be to drop the USB cable. I don’t know why I need to connect both USB and Bluetooth. I’d love to just leave my cell in my bag where it belongs instead of advertising yet another reason why someone should smash my windows in!

I have a surprising number of games which I play with BGM at 1%. That is nuts! Why should any game be designed roughly 100x too loud!?

If memory serves, Age of Empires 3 DE is this way last I tried to play and chat on Discord. Earth Defence Force 4, and all of the new Counter Strikes are similar. It’s a war on eardrums!

Just cross your fingers we don’t wind up with that ridiculous chimp we saw in one of their previews.
