Except every car I’ve ever seen it implemented in malfunctions 1000 times more than it ever works properly. I always signal and find lane departure to be incredibly dangerous. If you trust your cars algorithm more than your own eyes, I don’t trust you on the road.

100℅ this. Lane departure seems far more dangerous on than off.

The problem with some of these “safety” features is they malfunction at such a high rate they seem more likely to kill me than save my life. They also don’t anticipate future consequence in any way.
The collision detection malfunctions regularly giving a loud beep or applying breaks when nothing is ahead.
The lane departure does not understand situations where you had someone wander into your lane and you may drive onto the shoulder quickly before signalling. I don’t need my car fighting me while im making the correct call. I also think having the car take over, even gently, is so startling that it could cause the accident it was meant to prevent. If I’m startled I might over correct and lose control. While that has never happened, with everything considered, it seems safer to leave some of these features off.
I don’t need to be an early adopter on flawed technology that could get me killed.

My car has micro wires in the front window, smaller than the ones in the back. Maybe it refers to this?

YouTube just has google firebase analytics (which I also don’t want)

8 trackers from 6 different companies, hard pass.
I like these definitions. But i feel like if i call myself bi, it misleads people who dont know this definition.
This is why I prefer “queer” personally, because why should I have to explain my sexuality to anyone. I’ll know what I like when the time comes and that has expanded and contracted over the years. There is no specific line I feel like I need to use as a definition. To me drawing a line just limits things and misleads others. Language is imperfect and sexuality is complex.
