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?

Hey, you’re right! I guess if I had said I did you’d have a point.

oh no

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?

Remember when there weren’t podcasts at all and you would have to get on a radio station to broadcast stuff?

I was and used to watch the Diggnation podcast all the time. Loved Digg in its heyday, and it was sad when it went downhill. Reddit ended up being excellent though, and better than Digg ended up being. Sucks that it died too, but hopefully the Fediverse ends up finally being the chosen one.

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.

When I saw gallon of PCP, I hoped it was what I thought, and I was pleasantly surprised.

lol, well in this case Google was wrong, the character’s name is Usagi Tsukino. No idea where it would get Tanya from!

Who the hell is Tanya?

😮

Luckily though, she was not.

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?
