Buttons for turn signals. Yuck.

God, Jony Ive is such an insufferable person.

I think you simply haven't seen the light. Here, perhaps his $4800 lantern can help: https://www.balmuda.com/lovefrom-balmuda/

  • The lanyard is.. plastic. They could have said it uses the most exquisite handwoven linen (this thing is never seeing seawater anyway) and they chose polyester.

      I can definitely see these used as lighting devices on luxury boats.

Haven't Ferrari used buttons for turn signals for a while?

  • Not sure. I've been in a few Ferraris and they all had regular stalks.

    It's possible that those buttons are not Jony Ive's doing, but I still find him insufferably pompous.

    • What's the point of this refutation, a quick Internet search would've shown you that there are Ferraris with buttons to activate the blinkers...
