I think freemium car features are coming. Such as, car comes with all luxury features but have to subscribe to access them. Heated seats, dashcam, power doors…you better have that premium subscription or they don’t work.

Yeah but someday they’ll put them in real cars. BMWs are for assholes

On one hand, fuuuuck that…but on the ooooother hand…I kind of can’t wait to be able to hack my car to get more features for free like unlocking the hidden extra core or cache on old CPUs.

I mean I don’t give a shit about EULAs, if they put it in the car I bought in gonna fucking use it lol.

Never thought about that part. Piracy…you wouldn’t download a seat warmer, would you?
