I have a pickup from the pre-infotainment era, and I’ve considered how long I’d be able to keep it. Buying an old vehicle from the south an doing a restore is so much more attractive than anything that has touchscreen controls for hvac, media, etc. All of that shit is a massive safety hazard and a huge pain in the ass to use. It’s all garbage. Give me knobs and buttons all day long.
The only way I’d buy one of these things is on a factory-delete custom order that removes the whole mess. You can still buy some fleet vehicles this way. The day I buy a car that has ads in its unremovable infotainment system will be a cold day in hell. I’ll build a fucking car before buying one with ads.
Check its newer implementation, Project M. Milkdrop was one of the best things to ever happen to music. Project M is on Steam and a few other places.
I miss my MD player. Easily one of the best gadgets I ever owned.
