As the paraphrase from a TV series goes, "power is power". Knowledge is only
a leverage. You can't do sh&t about modern cars' overcomplicated design, at
best you can complain and grumble.
- ebcode 10y agoOn the contrary, if you know that modern cars are overly-complicated, you can choose to not buy one, and instead buy something more like a 1984 volkswagen bug.
- dozzie 10y agoOK, and how long would that work for you? Not to mention that you suddenly limit your options, sometimes to the point of them disappearing completely. As a singular consumer you don't have that much power over manufacturers, even if you know the product inside out.
