Verification Codes.

One-Time my ass, more like, repeated times. I'm so tired of verification codes up the ass these days. Just today, I had to reset my PayPal password. So that meant there was a code sent to an e-mail address after the reset process was set, to begin with. Then I had to go through the obstacle of verifying the information of the account. And then even after the password was reset, I'm sent ANOTHER freaking code right after!

And it's even more frustrating to deal with, with my bank. I've gotten random verification checks for making internal transfers within my account. Things I've done without any issue. But just one day, I got THREE verification checks to do what I needed to do!

This verification shit has gotten out of hand! I want it to just die, just like captcha. Whatever purpose they originally were intended to do, is lost in translation, because now they're just obstacles that wastes our time every minute we have to bother with them.

Go away: Any automotive HVAC controls that are not three simple fucking knobs. I'm going to wreck my wife's car fiddling with the touchscreen, which has a 2-second delay before the press actuates. 🙄😡

While we're at it, give us back AC vents that rotate 360° and open nearly 180°.

We had these things perfected over 20-years ago!

    My job has a lot of driving. I've been put through multiple driving courses on safe driving. We have literal rules about not being able to turn left into our parking lot. Everything is safety, safety, safety.

    They bought vehicles where almost everything is on the touch screen. The solution? Tell us to set everything before we drive and pull over if we need to use the touch screen....

    That’s going way to far back. I like my automatic controls where I set the temperature and the car will automatically adjust fan speed A/C and air temp to reach the desired temperature, thank you very much. My car also has a MAX A/C button that will override the set temperature to cool down as quickly as possible, and I can appreciate that as well.
