It boggles my mind that some people are more concerned how much fun driving a car is supposed to be vs 60 people dying in the EU in car accidents every day.

If 60 people died because an airplane falls of the sky every day we wouldn't shrugg that off either, wouldn't we?

And a voice that tells you to keep your eyes on the road when going 200 on the autobahn is one of the least offensive intervention I can think of.

In a pieceful world, sure. But then there is this [1]. Don't blame the player, blame the game.

Yes, projectors with 3LCD tech is what you are looking for. They produce all 3 colors at once via 3 distinct lcds inside the chassis and mix them ahead of time. There are a few to choose from, but they all cost above 3000.

The reason why projectors don't use a single rgb lcd (like monitors) to produce the color is the same why all sub 5000$ projectors use pixel shift to fake 4k resolution: Too much light is blocked by the lcd itself if the individual pixels become too small.

Cheaper to mass produce. Same front for all 3 devices.

It doesn't help that German politicians think it's a good idea to let companies bid on frequencies - 5g frequencies just went for 5.5 billion to 4 large companies. So those now have the monopoly on that plus they have to earn it back from the customer. And the highest bidder got the best frequencies. So good coverage can only be achieved by one company.

Same happened with 4g & 3g beforehand. Result being, only profitable areas are covered and competition has no chance to get into the market.

Sadly in German politics it's easier to get voted for tax cuts (because they get money by selling frequencies) then promising good internet coverage :(
