  • Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto?

    Jump

  • We have a wireless Android Auto dongle. And it takes an age to auto connect. Not to mention the problems with it still wanting us to pull over and put the car in park to switch, something I thought would be circumvented when I bought it but somehow is not. Usually it's the person in the passenger seat trying to change something and not being able to. I'm not advocating for distracted driving. I'm pointing out that someone else in the vehicle who's not driving can't interact to change certain things even though it's perfectly safe for them to do so.

  • It's a Honda. But that's exactly the point I'm trying to make here. With both car play and Android Auto I have issues but they're down to how the manufacturer chose to implement each. Car manufacturers deliberately hamstrung these features and still didn't get what they wanted.

  • I have equally bad experiences with both Android Auto and Apple Carplay. I don't really want either and am fine with what I've got (only 1/3 of the cars I own even has Carplay/Android Auto). I mostly dislike how it's been implemented with "safety controls" that require the phone to be plugged into the infotainment center in some cars and the requirement that I only connect it while at a stop with the car in park. If someone is driving with me and they want to change to their phone I have to pull over and that's stupid.

    The infotainment centers themselves with their stupid touch screens and lack of buttons are where my real problems start, and the end with the tracking BS and telemetry data. You can keep the new cars. I don't want them.

  • People should respect other people's body autonomy where food dislikes are concerned just like they should for just about every other form of body autonomy. The fact that they don't is the reason this problem exists.

  • I still find the people at fault who deliberately ignore the boundaries of people who say they don't like a food. I'm unfortunately allergic to things I actually really do like, and wish I could eat.

    If someone doesn't like something (their age doesn't matter here), we should be more respectful of their autonomy over what they put in their body. Having to claim an allergy in order to have that taken seriously is the nuclear option after saying you don't like something doesn't work/isn't respected.

    That people like me with allergies receive some of the fallout of that is still on the people trying to force others to eat foods they don't want to or shouldn't.

  • As someone who is allergic to some foods and has to carry an epi pen everywhere I want to say that I do not care if Karen says they're allergic to whatever. The problem is people who do not take food allergies seriously and assume that when someone says they have an allergy they actually have an allergy.

    If you're one of those people who have to prove someone isn't allergic, you're not just an asshole, you're an attempted murderer (not you, op, just people in general).

  • Don't apologize. It's okay to express yourself and there's nothing wrong with relating your story.

    I was diagnosed with ADD (now called ADHD inattentive type) when I was a kid and got basically no support for it because my younger brother was diagnosed with Autism at or around the same time. It turns out my sister also has ADHD (and was diagnosed as an adult), and got no support and stims are fairly common. There's a lot of behaviors in my own life that I didn't recognize as stims until years later. It seems a lot of us feel fell through the cracks so to speak.

  • My kid has autism. He once had a complete panic attack because we wouldn't let him stay to organize the bottles at Wine and More. He has never been diagnosed with OCD and my understanding after talking to his neurologist about it is that this was a stim for him, and not necessarily OCD behavior. There have been other instances all through his childhood like this one, and I can't help but think that having a completely different disorder or Neurodivergence also adds to people self diagnosing because there's way too many people who don't know they're neurodivergent.

  • Can I ask what you're planning to use block chain for? To verify each account? Or to federate instances?

  • Anthropic’s Claude ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI agents.

    Jump

  • Lack of context for what was being discussed, mostly. No joke I read this without context and was very confused (and I had already read a similar article about this event).

    Is the actual title. What gives?

  • Ah. There's the backtracking I was expecting. They keep doing this. Making a feature opt-out instead of opt-in and then backpedalling as soon as the users revolt, offering a "happy medium" to placate us so they can continue to do the same shit over and over again.

    Google does this with chrome too.

  • There was a scam going where they would offer for someone to apply for a role and use that good candidates clean information to get it v they would do the work and split the pay with the person who's info they used.

    In exchange that person would get "job experience", the perks of WFH, and the ability to hold down more than one of these figurehead jobs simultaneously.

  • A couple of weeks ago a WAYMO Taxi drove through an active crime scene.

    A bit ago they had to patch their taxis firmware to prevent them running down children (something you'd think they already would be programmed to do).

    Passengers have reported being held hostage by their taxi when it stopped suddenly and refused to move.

    There's a laundry list of things that have been wrong with them. Some have had reasonable fixes (and some of those fixes should have been implemented before they were allowed on the road).
