love how looking at phone screens is (rightfully) considered bad while driving, but then they just put a big fucking tablet on cars.

I hate how they don't give you a choice in the matter.. Just give me basic controls, then sell a bespoke android tablet that mounts in the car. I thought car companies love to push extras?

But if it just mounts in the car they can't tell you that you will need a new car because your built-in tablet doesn't get updates anymore.

Except they could be pushing a new tablet every few years. Like you need this tablet to unlock full self driving

[-] taladar@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Why would you do that if you can instead sell people a whole new car?

No no no, they only push "extras" that are already included in the car so they can charge more for doing nothing. This requires doing something.
