Went on business travel to CA this month and decided to try driving a Tesla to see what it was like. Big mistake… coming home to my civic is painful. Coworkers told me a lot of my gripes like lack of buttons wear off after a month or so. I was already all in on electric for when my car eventually died but god, idk how long I will be able to stay ICE. Anyone else have similar experiences on test drives?
I remember telling people that about HDTV.
We were early adopters and had a Superbowl party. Almost to a person the reaction was “this is it?” Cause in your minds eye TV was always that clear.
Then later the HDTV signal was having issues so it flipped to the SD signal and for a few seconds until we all adjusted it looked like someone recreating the sb in Techmo Bowl. The whole room went “woah!”.
Now to be completely fair HDTVs were worse at showing sd than a tube TV, but still. There are definitely things there you notice the downgrade after way more than the upgrade.
My wife’s crossover feels like driving a school bus towing an aircraft carrier. I used to think it was zippy for it’s size.
Another good example would be when video games went from 30 frames per second to 60. You try out something running at 60 and think “OK, but 30 is still fine”. Then you go back to 30 and it looks like you’re playing a slideshow.
