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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Touch screen in cars isn't a good idea, though. They may distract the driver.
Yup! If I'm driving and want to change station or volume I need to be able to know what I'm doing without watching, and it already feels distracting and dangerous enough to me. With a touch screen I can't feel the buttons or knobs and I must look at the screen to do anything.
I never had a car with a touchscreen (my current car doesn't even have an AUX or USB port) so I don't know if it's already like this, but probably an hybrid between the two would be ideal. You get a touchscreen to thinker with it and create presets or whatever when you're not moving, and buttons to change song/station/preset/volume/whatever when driving
