"Should we maybe just have a knob on the blinker switch?"

"No. This will be epically more based." billionaire-tears snorts a fat bump of K

Glad they finally innovated taking .1 seconds to flip a switch into staing at a screen for 10 seconds. Truly worth 100k dollars.

Also what the fuck is a frunk?

Front trunk. In some EVs, there is an extra trunk under the hood, where the engine bay would be.

This is VW bug appropriation!

Isn't Elon so innovative? After the last software update, you can turn on heated seats without paying a subscription for it! They also added Tetris to the touchscreen games.

Yes, that's been the term for a front storage compartment since at least the 1970s.

[-] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

literally just put Hood wtf is wrong with these ppl

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

The hood or bonnet is the foldy uppy piece of metal in the front, the tailgate is the one in the back. The trunk or frunk is the storage compartment under that piece of metal.

This isn't a 21st century techbro term invented for Teslas, it's been in somewhat common usage since at least the 70s when rear-engined air-cooled VWs and Porsches were still common.

Hrunk?

This is really shit design. The whole reason that the flood light are on a knob is so you can easily turn it off when there is a car approaching you.

[-] Shinji_Ikari@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Flood lights/highbeams are different than fog lights. Fog lights point down and a bit out for visibility around the front of your car. You don't need to toggle those for oncoming traffic.

[-] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

Wait Tesla lights get even brighter

[-] HelltakerHomosexual@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago

capitalist 'innovation' makes me dead inside

[-] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

Teslas are one of the most infuriating cars I’ve had the displeasure of driving. Literally everything was in the middle console. You have to take your eyes off the road then to the middle of the car losing any kind of peripheral vision of the front.

Not only that but you have to go through like 10 different menus to turn some bullshit on.

The only thing worse than this is the Ford trucks that have the same features, except the dashboard is still normal. But everything else? Want to turn on the AC? Better fiddle with a fucking 5 FPS computer screen while driving at 60 MPH in a suburban tank.

Light settings: ⍼D ⍼D =D

What are these symbols??

[-] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

Third one is like a normal high beams symbol, but yeah what are those other two?
