Bridging the Technology Gap: Helping Older Truckers Adapt and Thrive in a Digital World
Credit: https://driving.ca/ The trucking industry is evolving at a pace that some might find dizzying, particularly for the seasoned truckers who have been on the road for decades. Technology, with all its advancements, promises to make life easier for truckers, but for many older drivers, it’s starting to feel more like a barrier than a benefit. You see, the shift to tech-driven operations in…

Call me old school but "modern" cars are way too overkill.
My car (a used 2010 Honda accord) was totalled and I'm currently renting a 2018 Ford edge from my insurance company while I find a new vehicle.
Now driving this thing feels like driving a damn spaceship or the DeLorean from Back to the Future. There's just so many damn buttons, dials, lights, and just fluff in the dash and center console it's straight up hard to drive. On closer inspection, at least 5 buttons control the light above the driver and passenger's head.

Like what is all this??? Why do we need this many buttons???
And the stick for changing gears? It's that little dial in the second photo. You swivel it to change whether you're in park, reverse, drive, etc. I feel like it's gonna just randomly pop into a different gear while I'm driving!
And why the touch screen?? We don't need a massive ipad embedded in the console! Touch screens are not safe to drive with! I almost got in another accident trying to turn down the AC because I have no tactile feedback in the controls!
By old car was built like this:

Most of those buttons were for the radio. Dials for the AC and how to direct it, and those dials clicked when you moved them so you could tell how far they'd moved. The stick shift clunked when you moved it so you could tell how many times it had been moved and you felt it lock into place. Only a couple buttons on the steering wheel, three for cruise control, three for the audio system. And even this was the most buttons I had to learn ever! I'd argue some of the 'features' in that car were kinda useless and needless to have and just took up space!
Maybe I'm just crotchety and old (I'm 24 lol) but we don't need all this shit in cars! It's straight up distracting and unnecessary. It's a car. It gets you from point A to point B. I don't think you'd ever catch my driving a car any newer than like 2014.

sucks how sci-fi movies that take place close to the year we’re in imagine technology to be much cooler than it actually is in 2024

Everything Changes, Even Trucking
It’s no secret that our industry is changing at lightning speed, and adapting to these changes is key to staying on top. One of the biggest shifts we’re seeing is the rise of technology in trucking. From route optimization to automated loading systems, tech is becoming a huge part of our daily lives on the road. Embracing this technology can feel overwhelming, but it’s crucial for staying…

Why We Will Never Have Flying Cars
Tumblr media
This was written for something else but no longer fits in it. I didn’t want to get rid of it so here it is by itself.
There have been people who actually believed that we would/will have flying cars and personal jet packs. These have never been hard science fiction, nor have they ever been a plausible future but people still believed in them, some still believe we’ll have flying cars in the future. We won’t. To lift 1 kilogram 1 meter into the the air requires 9.8 Jules (energy = mass times gravity (9.8 m/s^2) times height). To lift a 1.5 metric ton vehicle with a 90 kg (198 pounds) father, 68 kg (150 pounds) mother, a 27 kg (60 pounds) kid, a 18 kg (40 pounds) younger kid, and a 22.5 kg (50 pound) dog 100 meters (328 feet) into the air would require 1,690,990 Jules. The 2024 Honda Accord has 192 horsepower, 1 horse power equals 745 Jules/second, so a Honda Accord could at full output 143,174 Jules/second. The 2025 Ford F-150 has a horse power of 430, 430 horsepower is 320,650 Jules/second. Those are at full power, not just driving down the road on a day trip, going to the store, driving to work, etc, and that doesn’t count hovering, acceleration, or landing. Without a new and dense source of energy or some kind of anti-gravity technology flying care are not happening and there is no sign of such technologies on the horizon.
