“Tech” is a conflated term. The way I read OP is that they don’t want their cars main user interface to be a smartphone app. Doesn’t mean the car can’t be technologically advanced.

Sure, in the same way volcanologists could mutate to survive being submerged in lava.
I’ve heard the exact same analogy applied to alcohol killing bacteria and it doesn’t convince me

Personally, my brain manages to filter out anything with a leading underscore (I don’t know the origin offhand, I think some system I worked with at some point used those on files that I knew I didn’t care about). So when coworkers use leading underscores it slows me down a bit.
It does work though
Tangential, but Blind Guardian has one
I’m lacking context or something because I don’t understand why that is so significant.
Man that does sound mildly infuriating.
That one and “FAFO” in its various incarnations can take a break for a bit, IMO
Is there a “lostlemmings” community?
I’m sure this was (mildly) infuriating but it’s not relatable to 99.8% of people
Have you tried an enclosure for the drive with its own dedicated power source?
My suspicion is that upon the PD renegotiation, your drive is temporarily losing power. Whether this is expected or USB-compliant behavior, I don’t know. But if that is the problem, I’d think using a separately powered enclosure might solve it.
On the other hand, maybe the (internal to hub) data hub IC is resetting the data line upon PD renegotiation. That seems contrary to the intent of USB and I’d suspect violates the USB standard.
Source: I’ve designed some USB PD power systems but not delved into the details of how data is handled
I was about to ask if, since you’re “extremely worried” about this (seemingly esoteric) potentially unconstitutional move, how you cope with the rest of the world.
Then I saw the second paragraph and it seems that you don’t.
Ever put beans on your hotdog? Mmmm

This comment is very human
Are you familiar enough with the details to share them? Because this sounds strange to me - every plan has an out of pocket maximum and the highest I’ve seen is $14k. Are you including premiums? Do the costs span multiple years?
Sure, the marginal cost is basically nothing. Once you have invested billions in infrastructure.
Not saying 10 cents isn’t outrageous, just that 0.001 cents seems low

Boilerplate comment for boilerplate meme
Seems like you and I had a similar mindset when we made our Lemmy accounts
Fair. When I read “no one actually wants to use nukes” I think “no nuclear power’s public geopolitical doctrine involves a nuclear first strike.” But individuals will not necessarily toe that line.
