A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Yo it'd be sick af to root your cars dash and load some OS onto it and have your own console!
ODB2 into a raspberry pi or a breadboard somehow, get some sick diagnostics application whipped up.
Here's to projects I'll never tackle.
I had an old Android tablet running Torque in my dash where the radio used to be. Adapter and phone app, $20.
I have a couple of those OBDongles that pair over BT, honestly the interface leaves a lot to be desired.
Hondas infotainment is just android. And at least on my friends 2017 Civic you could get to the regular ass android interface. Most of them are some flavor of Linux.
Also you can install whatever head unit you want on most cars. You can even buy a head unit from china that will match your cars trim for like $300 from china.
I admire your creativity!
Cheers
My 2015 Mazda 3 is rootable. Then Mazda made them unrootable with an update, and then the leet hackers started physically opening them up and rooting them with UART.
