Product salesman says people should use more of product

Clearly they use it for identification if as the OP said the camera can be used to load your driver profile. As far as I know that goes directly against the EU law stating no biometric data can be processed by the camera.

I think it’s unacceptable and indicative of this dangerous path we are headed down as whole. There’s already been a few write ups on how cars are the most privacy disrespecting “devices” out there, which is wild considering we have smartphones.

With the driver facing camera we have no control over it also has complete access to our travel data, probably knows exactly who we are in the car with, records all our private conversations etc. etc.

It’s so tiring to hear people defend this as if privacy is a thing of the past and anyone advocating it is being dramatic.

lets just really twist daddys bloated corpse and wring out the delicious money

Sure but I would argue its not entirely in line with what you expressed earlier. Some might survive the corruption.

You could be born into it

Well, those things I do agree with.

I see where you are coming from, but I don’t think money and power as a sole criteria automatically makes someone a child molester, though I am guessing they are a very well represented demographic in the child molestation sector.

So the only thing that stands between you and child molestation is money and power?

I really dislike framing child molestation as a symptom of power, as if anyone with such power would practice child molestation.

Nice.

don’t insult the pig

Honestly would not have given any of the options you provided a second glance, I have looked, albeit briefly, at third party options. Every option you provided has the offset sticks which I don’t want. The touchpad is a bonus, the Steam one a larger one at that - there’s a ton of things you can do with them. You can even make your own console style radial menus for them.

This is way cheaper than the “Elite” Xbox controller and PS equivalent though? As stated in my region 100 usd is the rough price of a Dualsense or Xbox controller.

The only competitor with a touchpad I know of is the Dualsense, but the battery is trash and it has a mic and speaker which is more annoying than useful to me.

Valve has built a lot of trust with their hardware snd every indication is that is will be a very servicable device.

I feel like your negatives, while subjective are just completely meaningless to me, who would gladly buy this over anything else, especially considering the terrible battery life my Dualsense has had.

Not having RGB to me just seems good, no battery drain and stupid “gamer” styling.

Colour choice sure, but I would have picked black.

Offset sticks would mean I wouldn’t be interested at all.

Console support is entirely meaningless to me, I guess not for everyone but Steam devices are already geared towards PC gaming so it should come as no surprise.

If you have a Steam Deck you should be aware the touch pads can be unbound if that is your preference, so any accidental touches are avoided.

And regarding the price that is the price of an Xbox or PS5 controller in my region already, What is the price for you?

I can’t speak for triggers using different tech as I don’t know enough (or care lets be honest) but I would’ve appreciated the adaptive trigger tech in this one, while underused I think it can be great, especially for driving games.

I feel like you are some sort of power user with a very strict preference, which you seem to make the mistake of thinking your average user is. I just want a controller that does the job and does it well, with some few requirements, like non offset sticks. I might enjoy adjustable sticks. but I will not be bothered by it not being there.

Typically I have bands I like, I go to their shows and I will sometimes discover other bands by means of opening acts etc. Or I will read up about a band, see what other projects members have worked on, are affiliated with, or see what bands would play as openers to those bands.

Sometimes there’s a show with some band I don’t really know about and someone invites me along and then I might like that band, and then I have a whole new band to learn about in regards to members, openers, other projects etc. etc.

Can also do the same thing with the label a band is signed to, check out what other stuff is signed, if I like it I can do the same song and dance exploring which other music that band is linked to.

And then of course sometimes something just falls into my lap and then I just listen to that.

Christmas predates Christianity in my culture. We just didn’t call it Christmas.

Not so many viable options on Linux. I don’t think many people are unaware their work is public, but it is a very good and reliable platform nonetheless.

OpenCAD as a comparison crashes on my setup if I ad much as load one of the example models included in the program.

I don’t love the public saves in Onshape but I would probably not be doing any modeling at all without it.
