Yeah I’ve used the Audi one and it sucks. Especially traffic, so many missing streets and odd routing.

That’s the irony though. If a virus is super deadly it actually won’t last as long because it kills off its host before transmitting as often. Oddly the most “successful” virus are the strains of common colds because they replicate the best while causing the least amount of issue.
Frankly CarPlay and Android Auto suck in my opinion compared to iDrive 7 on my BMW.
But… that being said, I do support choice. I wouldn’t even consider a car that doesn’t allow CP/AA as I think it should be up to the consumer to pick which one they want to use.
Something else that people don’t think about besides the backend server is the connectivity. A lot of these cars use LTE with eSIMs that can’t be replaced, and getting an internet package for it will be next to impossible since Tesla gets them at bulk rates. Once upon a time cars did allow “bring your own SIM cards” but not anymore. Also as cars get older the cell networks get shut down. Some companies did offer upgrades but that was few and far between. Most just said “sorry, you’re SOL”.
So even if you could hack your car, your car won’t have any way of talking to a custom endpoint.
Got it! Yeah it’s hard not to hate how much they’re getting away with.
Okay, got it. I’m a bit confused though about how that changes my statement around the fact he won’t be charged.
Illegal is only illegal if someone is willing to prosecute it. Who pray tell is going to charge the Secretary of Commerce?
One of these times I would love to see someone reply on national media reply “haha, who the fuck does Trump thinks he is that he can label what I am or am not?”
I mean technically anyone can call it champagne. I believe the only law is in France itself or possibly the EU. But I’d be curious how enforceable it is outside of gentlemen’s agreements.
That’s the annoying part of this. Prices never creep down the same way they creep up. So things will always be more expensive. The only way it ever corrects is very violently in a massive depression and even that never fully corrects it.
Don’t forget Natalie Portman covered in hot grits along with Natalie Dormer and a clone of the former.
I mean, what’s the alternative? It’s not like it has to have internet. Anything internet connected is mainly quality of life:
Except maybe Teslas, damned if I know what they do. But they’re nice to have things that generally require realtime updates but the car functions just fine as a car without it.
