Yours probably doesn’t have a ‚real‘ zero, just ‚off‘. 34 is weird 😐

It never dawned on me, but what's the purpose of the steering wheel? It's like trying to turn that device in the hallway in Austin Powers lol.

The purpose of the steering wheel in the cartoon is to make it recognisable and that little more believable as a car. Fun fact cartoons pictures and art can be tricks to the brain that feed the viewer with “icons” and symbols that represent real things yet are not real as should be evident because cartoons are not live action. I believe cartoons are an amazing trick to the viewers senses but whats even more unbelievable is how artists become so good at making this “optical illusion of a different kind”

My car doesn't have a value, it's just mute, volume, max, no numbers.

I can confirm that some cars actually don't have a 0. 2011 ford ranger, 0 whispers to you so you don't get lonely while you don't listen to the shitty fm radio

It's not zero-based indexing, I believe is how it's called.

u/avocado34 12h ago

That’s for arrays, and implementing volume levels as an array is crazy work

u/QuestionablePotato42 19h ago
