Video showing ads on dashboard.

Video itself starts with a QR code ad embedded into it. And it's on Youtube so who knows how many ads I skipped with uBlock...

Adception.

Furthermore: Slashdot still exists? And it still has an active community in the comments!?

Lemmy alone hasn't been enough to replace reddit for me; I should see if I still remember my old password...

Slashdot still has a good feed of articles. I never quit it 🤣

Who so they think owns the Jeeps?

This webpage is broken. It doesn't have content until you allow thrid-party scripts.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 hours ago

Sorry I don't check if a webpage requires 3rd party scripts before I post them for you. Leave it blocked and moved on I guess?

"Speed", but instead of a vehicle exploding, it's to avoid ads.

Officer, "Why'd you run that red light?"

Me, "If I hear the Meow Mix jingle one more time I'm gonna snap!"

Jeep, having heard you mention a product, dutifully plays the relevant ad.

Officer: Why were you speeding?

Me: Wanted to avoid ads.

This isn't even funny... This is something people will do. Jeep doesn't give a fuck about safety. FUCK Jeep.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 hours ago

Jeep isn't a true company anymore it's just another brand under Stellantis. So FUCK stellantis and every other brand under them.

There are no high end middle class cars now. Used be if you got an audi, merc, beamer etc. You were part of an in group where youngot extras. Now you spend 80K and they want you to subscribe for cruise control and AC. Lambourghini and porsche dropped back to entrr the market and only brought their badge.
