I mostly use Waze for navigation. And the alerts button setting is pretty small. However I find that just having it on alerts is enough for day to day use.

It’s true that for new routes I do enable the full guided voice assist

They’re going about this all wrong.

Apple car is not the issue. It’s all the other touch inputs that I have on my car to control every basic function like the climate controls and other shit.

Apple car switches on, already the navigation is setup and the music is on… I don’t need to touch it again. I can switch songs on my steering wheel and I can ask Siri for basic shit like finding a playlist.

I don’t need to go through a touch menu or button to change the temperature or any other action setting while in motion.

Also enjoyed this movie. It left me wanting for more…

Sucks that it failed.

As someone who just lost their ESTA, this whole thing is bullshit.

I’m a citizen of an European country, left Cuba when I was a minor and have zero interest in going to Cuba.

Yet I can’t go see my daughter in the USA without a visa.

Literally last week I was at the US Embassy requesting the visa, they gave me a 10 year pass (thank fuck).

But my whole family has to go through the same process. It’s all bullshit. I had to wait in line for two hours, in a city that’s far away from where I live, just to get the visa.

Edit: not to mention that this whole process takes hundreds of euros, around 150€ just for filling their online form, then add travel and accommodation expenses.
