A penised person with an actual good idea for a pose? What is this!? Nice valves holy shit they're cute!

Ehh... Thinking more European or urban (us) parking lots where you have much less space between rows. Usually it's hard to pull forward into the spot in the first place because you need to swing the front versus pivoting the back.

You can practically park sideways at a suburban Costco without inconveniencing your neighbor.

Solution to space between cars is not using a double wide truck/SUV nor parking like a Tesla driver.

I'm partial to blinking for charging and solid for charged. Allows single color LED which is cheaper. Then if you do use multi-color or RGB you can turn red for incompatible/error.

You can get into tighter spaces and it's safer when leaving the spot for pedestrians as the driver has better visibility. At last they did before side airbags.

This is legislated in the US. Just not enforced and cars became taller since the law was written (-3ft/75ft iirc, may vary by state).

In Scandinavia they actually care about this and high beam use is part of diver training. It's nice. Also semi trucks will happily blind you with a thousand Suns if you forget. So it's rare to get blinded in night driving.

I learned by playing StarCraft on 56k modem. VoIP was not possible so you had to type fast. Style is wildly non-standard but i was typing fast enough not to see a benefit from standard style.

Im the same with reading speed. You could try finding a block of time you would otherwise just be on your phone so it feels less an jnvestment (e.g. before bed, riding the bus, or break at work). I use e-books so i don't have to remember it and opening the book is as easy as social media. Finding something you WANT to read is hard too.

If you're into fantasy then branron sanderson is great. The Way of Kings grabbed me after getiing past the prologue (bonus points for women written decently). Alternatively Name of The Wind by patrick rothfuss. If only he'd finish the trilogy...

I just get bothered that even on very modern tech my CPU is under load even when idle in Win11 such that the fan is spooling up. I'm convinced they're sneaking distributed AI compute into personal PCs. Doesn't happen on my Linux install.

Assuming you park next to your house a WiFi connection on the local network would be everything you need. Relatively cheap compared to the car would be a repeater to extend it for people like me who park 30-50m away I agree with you assumption that this is car manufacturers creating software based planned obsolescence. An open source framework would resolve this concern even over cell networks but defeats the entire point of also pushing power windows and seat heating as a service.

I don't feel it's particularly broken honestly. Some languages are more consistent with their rules and therefore easier to learn but English is surprisingly consistent in practice/sound throughout the world. You also don't need to memorize the gender of a washing machine...

Yes with proper lubrication. Just playing around with the finger tip is amazing! A plug can also be great. Past a few inches you're nearing "train for it" territory and it may start to be uncomfortable or painful. Everyone needs to learn their body and its limits ofc.
