There should not be any listening services running on my new car at all.
no fm radio?
I'm glad I drive a small, basic pickup truck, not subject to any of this nonsense..
so your vehicle somehow by magic avoids accidents with other vehicles? wow!
all of your friends, apparently
Yes, but only because those driver's haven't been taught proper driving skills in the first place...
ONLY?? ONLY??? Then WHY did they go down in Germany, too, where people ARE taught proper driving skills in the first place???

trust me
why? you are a proven liar
Excuse me while I go find a pickup from 1980.
hey baby, wanna disco?
We have absolutely every idea of how to secure IT systems. Nobody wants to freaking listen.
Sure we do. How many times has amazon been hacked into? Zero. Apparently they know how to do it, and do it well. So you start out with a 100% bogus assertion and it just goes downhill from there.
Had a conversation with a German acquaintance, and he basically said that driving in Europe vs. driving in the US could be summed up in one simple thing: cup holders. In Europe, when you're driving, you're DRIVING.
My car was originally sold in germany, it has that weird german brake light and MANY cup holders.
that switch turns off the radio, it doesn't disconnect the antenna
you are the one who doesn't know what they are talking about
The car is technically always on because you can start it using a phone app.
me, you, the guy down the street, we can all start your car with a phone app, apparently.
Dare I suggest that we build cars without computers controlling things the driver should have been taught to properly manage anyway, and then actually teach people how to drive?
sure, if you want lots more death on the highway
this technology that you hate has saved many hundreds of thousands of lives
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_motor_vehicle_deaths_in_U.S._by_year
see how the death rate drops dramatically when these features you hate are implemented
Because you'd have to get all the vehicles in range of a network to distribute the patch, you fucking retard.

Also could you people please just drive your cars and stop making them a lifestyle?
Yes, small children should be driving cars, not admiring them.
Athletes are to sport as dixie cups are to drinking. Use once, dispose, move on to the next.
Athletics is just another way to move money from poor people to rich people.
Caffeine (at least above a certain level) is regulated in epretty much every sport that does PED testing.
BULLSHIT

Though Olympic officials once placed limits on its consumption, since 2004 athletes have been able to freely sip coffee or energy drinks, take caffeine pills, or chew caffeinated gum in search of that extra edge.
And recent research suggests up to three-fourths of the world’s elite athletes do just that. Take now-retired Scottish cyclist Chris Hoy, a six-time gold medalist. He’s so committed to his caffeine regimen that he reportedly lugged his own coffee machine and grinder to every competition, including the 2012 London Games.
