That one actually has some basis in reality though. My terminal still dings at me, it's just that having it ding too much is annoying and out of fashion now. Does no one else remember PCs piezoelectric beeping, even before you upgraded to an actual soundcard?
That view of the driver, looking out from the front passenger side out the driver's window always makes me anxious for this reason. It's like Chekhov's gun. Why would they pick that angle unless the characters were about to get T-boned?
Remember when courts declared Microsoft was a monopoly because they bundled their own browser, Internet Explorer, with the operating system? And they did it in a way that made it impossible to completely remove from the OS. Did they learn their lesson? I think they did, just not the lesson we wanted them to learn. Go ahead and try to uninstall Edge from Windows 10 or 11. Dive into the task manager sometime too and you'll see Edge sub-processes running under a surprising number of other apps. There is no Windows operating system any more, it's just Internet Explore refactored and rebranded as Edge all the way down. (Obvious hyperbole) At least Chromebooks were up front about it.
