Even inside the car isn't great, just look at allowing electronic door latches, and giant touchscreens that distract you while driving.

Yup, flexible screens are super soft and get damaged really easily.

It can be hard to find content if your home server doesn't interact with it enough.

Most common reason is you don't like how the server you're on is run, or it doesn't fit your hobbies well.

Our safety standards are kinda bad, along with headlight regulations and stuff.

It's just unnecessary, Debian based doesn't do this at all so updates are like 10x faster.

Fedora does this too, it's really obnoxious.

The only things actually useful in this article are the frunk and the gear tunnel in the Rivian. The rest is all tech-bro BS that will just make your car more expensive to buy and repair, and benefits you very little.

What we actually need are less expensive cars that are easier to maintain.

It's not much different from downloading and compiling source code, in terms of risk. A typo in the code could easily wipe home or something like that.

Obviously the package manager repo for your distro is the best option because there's another layer of checking (in theory), but very often things aren't in the repos.

The solution really is just backups and snapshots, there are a million ways to lose files or corrupt them.

That's fine, nothing wrong with storing files on your root partition.

Your boot partition or your root (/) partition?
