It’s funny how I’m the opposite. I play FPS games on my phone as good as with a mouse and keyboard. I like low profile laptop keyboards because I can type faster with minimal down distance and force per finger. In the car the touch screen is so much bigger and nicer than any button interface in a legacy car.

Looking at a touchscreen isn’t a big deal, people look down and around their cabin all the time while driving. People here sound like you have to be staring at the road without blinking to drive. In reality people are always looking around the cabin while driving for all sorts of reasons.

Idk my Tesla drives itself 95% of the time. It also drives better than an most of the raging morons on the road.

I do over 100 miles a day in a Tesla on autopilot. Touchscreen works fine.

I love driving a Tesla with no buttons. I hate buttons. The two multipurpose buttons on the steering wheel are enough for me. I don’t even like having a HUD. Just useless information in front of my face. Just give me a big touch screen and I’m happy.

I guess when you give power to the people that means flash mobbing meme stocks. Not something traditional institutions have had to deal with before. Traditional users as well who don’t see what happened as good behavior. Robinhood handled it as well as could be expected.

Because it was atypical behavior that any institution would have the same problems with.

I like Robinhood and I have no problem with them having technical issues when users a flash mobbed a meme stock. In the end they learned what to do next time.

Dealership markup is highly variable vs MSRP which is across the board so it matters a lot.

Also Tesla prices are only up 15%. That is inline with inflation. Dealer and scalper markup on game consoles is way beyond that.

Each PHP file is a magic hot swappable component. Not some bulky binary you have to full compile/deploy on every tiny change. What other web technology compares?

Show me a report, anything that says people are buying lots of Teslas to resell them for a profit.

Oh wait you can’t. What’s your argument, raising prices was a preemptive strike against scalping? That makes sense. Really your point was disproven like 5 posts ago. Inflation across the supply chain is obviously the reason for price increases.

Sorry it’s not all a conspiracy with Tesla lying about their motives. Maybe that’s easier to believe than accepting that you could be wrong.

It's one thing when scalpers jack up prices, but when companies do it it's called price gouging.

I haven't seen Sony, Microsoft, Ford, Tesla, gas stations, etc.. raise their MSRP to deal with scalpers, only inflation.

I have real examples that prove you're point wrong.. do you have examples that help prove you're even slightly right?

If someone wants to pay a lot of money to a professional to create their brand identity that option is always there.

If someone else just needs something simple and passable there is Dalle.

And I’m sure there is every option in between where someone can use Dalle as a starting point and pass it to a pro, or a pro would even use Dalle as a way to brainstorm options.

Dalle is a tool that has empowered everyone. It shouldn’t be seen from a stereotypical luddite perspective as in your first post.

You could of also paid a human to carry your comment all the way over to me so I could read it and reply like I am doing so now.
