    This has been a gripe of mine for a looong time and not just in cars. For fuck sake, my fucking oven is touch screen and has wifi. why?

    Every time I wipe it off, it thinks I’m touching 37 buttons and it overwelms the CPU, and the system restarts

    Never again

      Same with fucking electric stove tops. Why am I to use touch controls on the same surface that heats my pots and pans? Idiocy.

        Well, touch controls on appliances make more sense because they should last way longer than mechanical buttons, and it’s not dangerous for you to focus your attention on them like it would be while driving.

                First of all, touch buttons don’t necessarily mean touch screens. Second, survivorship bias.
