Oh, I stand corrected

People are just now acknowledging it. Execs tend to have a disdain for the minutiae. They’re like kids that only want to do the exciting bits. As a result things get fucked because they don’t really understand what they’re doing. As Muskrat would say “move fast and break things.” It’s a terrible mindset.

Are you doing Azure training too? I cursed these out to my boss when I encountered them. I’ve seen a lot of bad captcha but these are hands down the worst.

Fuck I hate self-righteous “downvotes aren’t for things you dislike” shit like this. Pair it with the hypocritical assumption people don’t understand something you admit youhaven’t taken the time understand yourself and you’re nearing peak oblivious internet poster.

How the hell are you supposed to say you don’t like a post/comment? Can we please stop treating up/down votes like a mandatory tip? So someone posted something, if it’s shit it gets downvotes if it’s not it doesn’t. You don’t automatically deserve an upvote just because you posyed something. Fuck right off with that.

As an aside, the desktop paradigm has been solid for decades for a reason. Clickbait “we should change things for the sake of change” shit like this absolutely should be downvoted as the meaningless algorithm baiting drivel it is.

I’m pretty sure no part of this is a good thing

Sounds more like Project Insight to me

Subscription to a cell carrier maybe? I’ve used Android Auto in particular a bunch. It connects to my phone and uses Google maps, which is non subscription. Admittedly it’s been a bit, I suppose Google could have crippled it since I last used it, but I have my doubts. My mother uses it regularly and I guarantee she’d be throwing a fit if she needed to pay to do so.

Car makers don’t give you that option.

Except they do if you have Android Auto. Literally none of that has any bearing whatsoever on subscriptions for cruise control though.

Is this whole issue just “we told an algorithm to do a thing and we’re shocked that it did it?” The ‘prompt’ is basically telling it to do this behaviour, including giving it the new name but the article treats it as if it’s spontaneous.

I’m glad I could help

Way back before Scott Adams went completely off the deep end I had a tin of Dilbert branded mints called Encourage Mints. This is literally a joke from the hackiest office comic ever yet some manager(s) still thought it was good idea. WTF does business school teach?
