If you’re talking an Android tablet/headunit, separate from Android Auto, that makes sense… But Android Auto is essentially a simplified interface for specific apps installed on your phone, and is generally quicker and safer than using the phone interface. No one here is arguing for a separate android console interface, so I’m not sure we’re talking about the same things. The whole point of Android Auto is to take a separate interface and OS out of the equation and to allow you to use your phone as the brain.

What apps were you hoping for it to support?

I am not sure how it could be much more intuitive, at least from a touch screen perspective. It’s just a touch interface with an app drawer, nothing much more to it than that. However, if it wasn’t a touch screen I could believe it not being very nice to use, as I have a friend that has an Audi that does CarPlay but the screen isn’t touch, so he had to use physical buttons to use the interface. THAT is definitely not good.

As for the apps, I use Signal, WhatsApp, Messages, Spotify, YT Music, Waze, and Google Maps and they all support AA, so at least for my purposes it does what I need from a car apps interface standpoint.

The main argument I have against just phone + bluetooth is that you have to unlock your screen, keep it on, and it’s a smaller size. I have wireless android auto set up, along with a magsafe case+charger, so my routine is to get in the car, slap the phone on the charger, and everything just comes up on my head unit display. For me it is way more convenient than having to deal with my phone display, and the larger screen is also better for navigation.

I have yet to hear any real negative points against AA or CarPlay for that matter, mostly it comes down to preferences like yours rather than actual interface issues.

I am curious why you think that? My reasons for liking it are the fact that it essentially just works, and gives me a consistent UI across multiple vehicles. What are your issues with it?

Deep fried cicadas seasoned with Old Bay. Co-worker gathered a bunch a few years ago when they were around and fried them up. They were fine, and if you had not told me they were an insect I wouldn’t even have known. Nothing I wanted to eat again afterwards though.

A lot of things related to Discovery are supposed to be secret, so if they stick to canon, there shouldn’t be much mention of Discovery at all I think. As of now there hasn’t been much if anything related to Discovery discussed as far as I remember.

Is all of them a valid answer?

I was looking for this, glad I found it. Bidets are life changing on a level that’s honestly hard to describe. Basically, it’s kind of like that super addictive game from S5E6 of Star Trek The Next Generation, except without the negatives. I’ve you start, you can’t stop.

Seriously, why is it even a thing anymore? It’s really sad that people are still even using the service. I understand the stories, because a train wreck is hard to turn away from, but why would you still want to be on board the train? Literally no one should be on that hellsite.

Damn you for this comment.

Hot damn, this is the most satisfyingly hilarious pathetic thing I’ve ever seen. Musk has got to be the absolute richest moron on the entire planet, and possibly in all of reality itself. What the absolute hell is he thinking??? Is this some kind of 5-D chess thing where he is going to somehow get a payout for tearing it down Producers-style?

Huh, for once I am siding with Apple. Weird feeling.

The functionality of auto hiding the tabs when not in use and being visible when hovered over is the functionality I need. I might be lazy, but it’s what I am looking for. I’ve tried all the ones I could for Firefox and none replicated that functionality sadly. Outside of that, I also want to be able to create web apps, which Firefox also did not support the last I checked.

Ah nice! Well just installed and I will give it a try then. Would really like to see Firefox adopt it too. I’ve looked into addons for Firefox to accomplish it, but none of them are as good as Edge (and now Brave’s) implementation.

I’m ready as soon as there is a copy of the vertical tab implementation from Edge. Until then, you’ll have to pry Edge from my cold dead fingers.

Honestly it is so dystopian that we even have to have laws to require this kind of thing. It only makes sense to be able to replace failed parts instead of throwing out entire units or being required to have the manufacturer handle it.

In reality what happens is that devices with difficult or impossible to replace batteries end up getting thrown in the trash more often than anyone does anything else with them.

Sadly they only have two things they do with surplus here, either let you take it for free (but still keep track of it in inventory and you have to return it if you ever leave the company), or send them out for destruction. They don’t sell anything as far as I know.

I plan on trying a few more things but I have a feeling in the end it’s just not going to be useful and I’ll end up taking it back to surplus. Maybe I can find an older model that is usable that does not have the MDM.

The real answer is nothing, assuming they already had an Instagram account. People are all up in arms, but the majority of ‘signups’ were just people clicking the activation button as opposed to creating a new account.

That said, I currently will praise anything that takes more users away from Twitter. Lesser of two evils and all that.
