The PRNDL is the more modern version of the AM/FM buttons.
It stands for Public Radio Network Dial Lever. - Comment on Is it possible that none of this is real? 1 day ago:
If you experience things like this regularly, it might be a good idea to check in with a psychiatrist. Their are plenty of ways our brains can mess with our perception, without us realizing it.

It’s the handbrake
- Comment on Remember when car controls weren't complicated 1 day ago:
I’ll never buy a car with a touch screen, and luckily I don’t have to.
We (in Europe) are now at the high water mark for touch screens. The EURO NCAP have changed their rules so cars with complicated touch screen controls get a lower safety rating. ADAC have changed their rating system to penalize them, too.
Those are important measurements for normie car buyers, so manufacturers will adapt to them.
First manufacturers are already offering cars without screens again for 2026 (Dacia, Renault, Citroen, Fiat, Opel). - Comment on Remember when car controls weren't complicated 1 day ago:
You could add heated seats and steering with third party addons. Much, much cheaper than buying a new truck. The 4x4, not so much.

In case that’s a serious question, the reverse is the FM button. (to switch between amplitude modulation and frequency modulation)
- Comment on Remember when car controls weren't complicated 1 day ago:
Thanks for the explanation. I had the same question, been driving since the early 90s but I never saw a handbrake like that.
I thought it might be a choke and was confused seeing that in such a new car. - Comment on Quidk! I need a chili recipe. What would you add to a pound of hamburger, diced jalapenos, chili powder and bloody mary mix? 1 day ago:
Dark chocolate. Half a bar (50g) to give it a richer flavor, 2 bars (200g) to make Chocolate Chili, the best winter food known to mankind.

Gets interesting when you start to wonder why a coconut and human blood have the same concentration of electrolytes.
- Comment on You want a easy way to convert Fahrenheit to Centigrade? Subtract 30 and divide by 2 3 days ago:
The actual formula is subtract 32 and multiply by 5/9.
But this is a lot easier, and is very close for all temps you’ll encounter as weather. - Comment on the wok agenda 3 days ago:
