They were on the phone btw. Big ol iPhone 16 Pro Max up to their ear, barely paying attention to the road.

edit: if anyone has any foss camera apps they'd like to recommend, I'm looking to find something better than the stock GCamera.

I've been using Open Camera (from F-Droid) for a long time now. I don't know if it's the "best" since it's been a while since I checked, but I do think it's better than the default camera app. (Where "better" means "capturing the output of the image sensor at the highest fidelity without fucking with it," rather than "producing the 'prettiest' oversaturated and AI-enhanced garbage to post on Instagram".)

Also, re: the one-finger salute: stop resisting the temptation; they fucking deserve it. Public shame is the only thing that's going to get these assholes to change, so you do society a disservice by not flipping them off.

I'd avoid interacting with the US lunatics on the road. People in cars get overly excited way too easily and the result can be unpredictable.

This is why I didnt, if it was just me I probably would have but there were other people in the car and I didnt want to endanger them

The ones in the rundown Dodge Rams seem to appreciate it the most.

Thanks for the suggestion, giving it a shot now :)
