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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Gloves should be a requirement to keep in a glove box. (lemm.ee)

Otherwise it defeats the purpose of calling it a glove box. If gloves are not in this box it would be more accurate to describe that volume as a passenger compartment.

Honestly, I think there should be legislation. that any usb ports should only be allowed to be placed within closed compartments (such as the glove box) so that to charge your phone or use Car play / android auto your phone would have to be away and inaccessible.

They could then be renamed to a phonebox

Does your car not have the 12v cigarette lighter ports?

That would not be compatible with wired Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. It has to be a built-in port with a data connection, unless your car has the newer wireless extensions.
