I rented a car, a Mercedes B class or something
Everytime I started it, it would ask me to sign up for some bullshit Mercedes service Half the features of the car were disabled due to requiring subscriptions
I will NEVER buy that car nor rent it ever again

What fantasy world are you living in? How could my glass hold water if I didn't sign up for a service that sends me spam? How could my table hold a book if I didn't sign up for the monthly subscription that prevents it from ejecting books into the air? Even my cat came with a ToS that said that by petting her, I give her access to my bank account and first born child. Hasn't it always been this way?
Im with you, I dont need my dishwasher to have WiFi and an account
How else are you supposed to see the live stream from inside it, and get progress notifications and ads?

I really wanna ditch the smart TV I have and just get a display that only displays the picture of the devices I have plugged into its inputs and doesn't get online, doesn't receive updates or "improvements" and has inputs for everything:
3.5mm AUX audio
Composite
S-video
RGB
Hdmi
That optical audio jack made by (IIRC) Sony I can't remember the name of right now. It's what my stereo uses and it's amazing. Used to be super common on TVs.
I recently got really tired of my TV constantly nagging me to update the firmware for all the newest features. I just disconnected it from wifi instead. I do not use my TV for smart features, I use it as a display. I update the things plugged into it, because that's their job. If i need to stream something, I will use a box. A box that can be replaced or easily updated or changed out.
A display has one job, to display whatever.
I'd do that except that every few seconds, a big pop up that takes up 1/4 of the screen from top down tells me that the network is disconnected. 😬

Shit either has no buttons, with an capacitive touch surface, or if it has buttons, it's never immediate response, you have to press it for an extended amount of time.
it's fucking infuriating.

Hello fellow old person. I too miss things that just work.
I used a normal wired phone the other day.
I picked it up and called people.
It blew my mind.

It used to be that when i got a new video game for Christmas, i could just put it into the GameCube/PS2 and play it. No need to wait for everyone to also try and download the 40gb update that morning.
Blows into cartridge.

After trying to get my new automated kitty litter box working with a POS app that can't sync with the poop machine and the PM can't connect to my 5 GHz wireless network (only 2.4 GHz) nor does it have any way to enter the password for said network I have resorted to deleting the app and just pushing two physical buttons in sequence on the PM twice daily to clean the litter area.

Yup.
Comcast "updated" their network yesterday and broke every fucking smart plug in my house. None of them will work anymore.
