Of course! Say, maybe we should hire you to design the next phone, what do you say?!

...

It wouldn't be like the Homer car, it's my calling

For a start I'd basically just take the iPhone 4, remove all the plastic, maybe replace the glass with sapphire to make it more durable, and add a way to pop the back off for battery removal and camera/mic/speaker switches (maybe others)

Then I'd make the OS open source and fix any misleading/confusing phrasing in the UI. 99% of my career as a designer would be spent fighting over how stuff should be phrased

If the OS ever stops needing help, then I might design a Homer car phone with an OLED screen on one side and e ink on the other side and an optional built in joint/blunt lighter and 2 full size USB ports and a full size HDMI port and 4 headphone jacks that can also handle power and data transfer iPod Shuffle style

And a built in projector

Have you seen the new Chinese-made cars? They seem pretty loaded. I want one

🇵🇸 whoever loves Digit 2mo ago

What ones? I don't like cars with too much tech, I wish the little Chinese electric cars that are basically built on golf cart chassis were street legal in more of the US

The projector joke (?) got me thinking of this

Projector would actually be a really cool feature for a car but I believe more phones should be like this

I'd also carry a folding keyboard/trackpad thing separate from the phone so it can be turned into a computer. Those already exist

Sorry I missed your call, left my projector at home.

Reminds me of this usb second monitor thing I had a while back. Was decent to add to a laptop, but a bit dim and ultimately I stopped using it.

The way I would do projector on a car is on the outside though, not inside lol

Drive in movies everywhere you go!! No plastic, all metal! We're going back to the 50s!

🇵🇸 whoever loves Digit 2mo ago

I be looking at these but don't have a good place to keep one parked

Is china accepting immigrants? Those would cost 10k here, I'm certain

🇵🇸 whoever loves Digit 2mo ago

Those both have free shipping to the US. I think they are probably being sold at a loss to Americans to delay climate change due to the impact of climate change on China? Not sure, definitely insane prices to me

Gonna send to my friend who bought some ebikes from china to save money (worked out well, they are pretty sick, if you like those things, which I kinda don't).

🇵🇸 whoever loves Digit 2mo ago

Oh my bad, I took those screenshots with the some "deposit" price, those ones are actually like $4000

There are smaller ones for more like 1k, that's why I was confused

YODL 2mo ago

Gd it! Already sent. That did seem unreal. Everyone would be driving these

🇵🇸 whoever loves Digit 2mo ago

The options in the 1-2k range still make me confused how I don't see them more. The street legality would be the issue in most places but I actually live where there are plenty of trails they'd probably be legal on. Guess it's still the street legality making it limited usefulness though

YODL 2mo ago

You can just drive things
