Buttons and switches that you can feel and that actually move when you press them so you can tell that you've done it, and that actually work close to 100% of the time. You should be able to operate almost any device you're familiar with without looking at it. Is it that unusual to have song/volume controls on the wheel? My not particularly fancy 2018 car has those, I thought they were standard.

I know McDonald's doesn't/can't really market toward children any more, but you can't tell me that kids wouldn't absolutely love turning big cranks and pulling levers to place their order. Kids can also be in their thirties shut up

It’s pretty simple. I’ve driven shitboxes from the 90s, so-so used from the 2000/2010s, and now we’ve driven two brand new vehicles in a row - civic hatch and a Subaru ascent. In every objective measure, newer cars are safer for the occupants and more fuel efficient, etc etc. more comfortable and so on. Subjectively, obviously that’s not really up for debate because goddamn those 90s shitboxes had that je n’ai c’est pas that only an old shitbox car has.

I'm currently driving a 2013 ford focus, the most cursed of cars. The transmission is all lovely, one time my car shifted into neutral on the interstate. There was a class action lawsuit because someone's car shifted into gear while stopped at a red light and lurched them into traffic. but on the plus side, no touch screens. Gonna drive it until it costs more to repair than replace.

Since he didn't accidentally sign an agreement to do the fight, it's not going to happen. Zuck is 15 years younger than him and has become addicted to MMA training, Elon is a sedentary 53 year old loser whose never done a day's honest work.

Yeah but he keeps making terrible decisions and has an army of weird online dudes who think he will personally shoot lasers out of his eyes and then levitate his way to mars after the fight. So the complete lack of suitability might not be an obstacle.

A boxing match is so unbelievably boring. Like just think of how many BILLIONS of dollars these guys are worth and all they're going to do is punch each other with their own hands. Where are the exo suits? Or can they not fight on the moon? Why not buy some weather machines and have a tornado duel? What about firing Vulcan cannons but instead of 5000 bullets per minute they use gold coins or first editions of classic books?
