@noah@mastodon.art Ah, I have solved that one by reading the warnings about touchscreens in cars and deciding that I won't buy any such car.

@noah@mastodon.art I'm glad to have never owned a car with a touchscreen. I'd gone car-free before that became a thing, so the last car I had had real gauges with real needles and a real radio with an actual dial. Oh, and window cranks of course.

@TedTodorov@mastodon.social @noah@mastodon.art And not a claim anyone would be likely to make either, I'd expect. Seriously, I've never heard a single person ever try to claim that internal combustion was "better" in any way. EDIT: On further thought, I'm sure those people *do* exist... but it'd be like trying to defend vacuum tubes and claiming they are somehow superior to solid state for building computers. No matter how dumb the argument, someone somewhere is probably making it.

@noah@mastodon.art There is absolutely no reason you should need an OBD2 scanner to read troublecodes on a car with a touch screen UI! You should be able to see them all right there.
