Annoyance with modern cars..

So, I would like my next car to be an electric car. However, I don't like some "modern conveniences" which most new cars seem to have.

Like automatic climate control... I don't want to set a temperature. I want to be able to just turn on the AC or heater. Yet every electric car I look at keeps including these things..

I wish there were modular cars...

Second minor credit card fraud in a month...

Last month, someone tried to use our credit card to pay for crunchroll online. Only about $1.50.. Seemed like someone was testing if the card could be used.. So we had to cancel the card and get a new card number. 1 month later, now the same thing happened. Crunchyroll for about $1.50 The things we used the credit card for over the past month were normal.. No clue how the fraudsters got the credit card number this quickly.

Dealt with a door to door Verizon salesman..

A Verizon sales guy just came to our house trying to sell his service. After listening to his shpeel, I started complaining to him about how Verizon forces you to combine the WiFi and modem together into one device. I don't like this because I want to have full control over what WiFi I have, with my own router.

At first he seemed confused. "We don't use WiFi. It's fiber!"

Next he started to sell it as a good thing "why worry about multiple devices when you could have just one?"

Finally he told me "ah you just want to waste my time", shook my hand, and left.
