A coworker and I were going to lunch not that long ago. I'm driving my car, and he asks "Is your radio broken?"

I go no, it's not broken, why do you ask?

"The screen is dark."

I inform him that it's "off" and punch the power button. The screen lights with it's "apps" screen, a list of totally useless things the device can do, including perform like a radio from 1926 with a bad 201.

There was no more conversation as I believe the person simply locked up with not understanding that the device doesn't need to be on all the time, especially when it's not in use. There's nothing on terrestrial ad broadcast that I want to listen to, and I prefer simply listening to the road over most garbage that's on the air these days.

I cannot drive in silence. The 70s/80s station is usually on. That or I bluetooth Amazon music.

Amazon Music. So you go to listen to a playlist and they remove half the songs because muh not this moth free pay for it more. Fuck that I deleted the app after downloading all the MP3’s from the discs I bought over the years.
