A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you think that’s a satisfactory replacement for the average person you don’t know much about motorsports. The costs alone are outside the reach of most people.
Yep, driving will probably eventually become just another thing most people can't enjoy...
I think that's a very long way off though, and will just be another symptom of unrestrained capitalism.
Only if we value safety and convenience over freedom.
Personally, I’ll take the freedom.
Me too, but people who don't need to learn to drive often don't realise how enjoyable it can be, and over time I think that number will gradually increase.
