@slashdot Cool 😎 But why would I want a car that can changes its colors?! 🤦♂️ I _want_ a car so I can drove from A -> B Oh wait I can't drive (_legally blind_) 🤦♂️ Oh well have your stink'n chameleon cars then! 🤣

@prologic colour changing would be cool, perhaps even useful if driving across many geographical areas. In Florida, for example, you want a colour that reflects light, nothing dark. As you drive to colder areas, you might want the opposite. Some interesting utility on that feature, for sure.

@prologic not owning a car is a blessing for many reasons. I wish I didn’t. Sadly they are a necessity in the States; where we live public transportation is close to non-existent.
@fastidious I wouldn’t catch public transport anyway given the current pandemic climate in the world 🤣

In my town, very close to the States, a car is a must, you know, cities are not designed for pedestrians and such.
That being said, an eink car sounds like a cool concept, but useless in practice 😎🤔
