The “zero-for-zero” offer extends to cars, pharmaceuticals, rubber, plastic, machinery, and other industrial products.

Tesla sales are down. What a surprise...
I have never been a fan of Teslas. I am a fan of EVs, however, and there is just a lot of quality vehicles out there and most of them have a dashboard, which IMHO should be a requirement, as well as normal placement of things like turn signal controls and window wiper controls.
I know some of you just dislike cars in general and I respect that. I love walking and biking as well, but sometimes I need to drive and then I prefer EVs.
What the fuck can possibly go wrong? Reminder why I like my #cars are dumb as possible.

Another try of a procedural generated #engine sound, this time trying to catch an actual 'combustion' sound. 
I think I'll split the project into:
engine sound lab (with some GUI around it)
the game (which uses sounds of the lab)
