In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn't feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in it ?

or.. we just need more FOSS alternatives to the car manufacturers proprietary OS.

I already see GH issues like: "breaks stop working when going above 200mph."

if (vehicle.getSpeed() >= 200) {
    vehicle.respondToBrakes = false;
}

if (vehicle.getSpeed() % 2 === 1) {
    vehicle.useFreedomEagleUnits = true
} else {
    vehicle.useFreedomEagleUnits = false
}

I will do you one better: open source public transport

More than likely the brakes would break at 129Mph, as your car is now going -32768Mph.

Not many will risk installing unofficial software on their car.

We should heavily regulate official options.

Cars separate core functionality from the infotainment system. I’d fully expect foss infotainment to be significantly higher quality.

[–] Allero@lemmy.today 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Cars often don't now, rendering you unable to start/open them.

Also, define "higher quality". More user-centric, less obtrusive and "just works"? Yes, certainly better in that regard.

I can tell you working at an OEM we see far crazier notes like this coming in

Brakes, if your brakes break you break.
