All right, yes, I get it. But –
All of those automated systems exist in large part to minimize human error. That Windows UAC prompt that you hate so much exists to minimize human error. Any time you find yourself up against something that makes you say “Why can’t I just do the thing I want to do?” it’s in order to minimize human error.
FFS, how many times are you going to post this?

Our dog is an expert at doing dog things:
- Wagging
- Barking at neighbors
- Chewing bones
- Barking at package delivery
- “Sit pretty”
- Barking at squirrels
- Ball
- Barking at nothing
We’ve had discussions about this, with and without our kids. Yeah, they need to be in the loop with their friends, and being in that loop can mean being exposed to some bullshit.
That’s always been the case, though. The additional risk of modern social media, I think, is that it’s always with you. One of the rules we laid down was to plug your phone in outside your room before you go to bed. That was relatively strongly enforced when they were younger, just getting started in that arena. They’re all essentially adults now, so we don’t enforce it anymore, but they sometimes still do it anyway.
It’s important to be connected, and it’s okay to be disconnected when you want to be.
Trick question: Sisyphus is never happy.
That’s fair. My wife’s car has adaptive cruise, and I really like it. My car does not. Still, anything made in the last ten years is exponentially safer than the cars I was driving in the late 80s and early 90s. I have to think my perspective is colored by that. We were lucky if there was even a passenger side mirror.
That’s … what car would that possibly be? Everything has ABS, TC, air bags, crumple zones, the list goes on.
You might find things like blind spot warning and lane departure warning only on higher trim levels, but those are kind of “extra”. I’ve actually found that I prefer the wide angle mirror sections to blind spot warning, too.
Ha, I love that the bus is the one with a professional driver.
I am in this picture and I don’t like it.

We are all playing in a World of Darkness game on this glorious day.
