GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused version of Android, is adding Android Auto support
  • 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.

  • GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused version of Android, is adding Android Auto support
  • 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?

  • What Film Are You Surprised Didn't Get A Sequel?
  • Not a film, but wholeheartedly and agree.

  • [QUESTION] What's the most interesting thing you've eaten?
  • Deep fried cicadas seasoned with Old Bay. Co-worker gathered a bunch a few years ago when they were around and fried them up. They were fine, and if you had not told me they were an insect I wouldn't even have known. Nothing I wanted to eat again afterwards though.

  • Guess the Episode [Hard]
  • Why must you turn my office into a HOUSE OF LIES?

  • Guess the Episode [Easy]
  • Wow, I had no idea this was removed from circulation... It's one of the all-time great episodes! I understand the problems with Michael Jackson, but I don't think this episode should be deleted from existence.

  • TurboTax Parent Company’s Latest Argument Against Free Tax Filing: It Will Harm Black Taxpayers
  • I highly recommend Cash App Taxes if you can believe it. I was skeptical but it was totally free both state and federal, whereas everywhere else appears to charge for state. Did mine last year and it was awesome, I previously was using TaxAct until they started increasing prices year after year and also kept getting worse at upselling for the state filing.

  • Lyft’s new feature lets women and non-binary riders request their driver’s gender
  • Wow, was not aware although after just looking it up, evidently it is only for 'premium' rides and not standard. As if having someone not talk to you should cost extra. 🙄

  • Lyft’s new feature lets women and non-binary riders request their driver’s gender
  • Cool, now both Lyft and Uber need a "no extra conversation" option too. I don't want to talk to the driver when I use rideshares, I hate the incessant small talk they want me to be a part of. I know some people might like it or at the very least not mind it, but I absolutely can't stand it 9 times out of 10. Give me the option to specifically not have it please.

  • Have watched TOS - Enterprise. Will watching Discovery-SNW increase my enjoyment of Lower Decks?
  • 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.

  • Gargoyles Remastered – Announce Trailer
  • Well shit! That's awesome. Can't say that I'm a huge fan of the graphical upgrade actually, at least during gameplay. Looks too much like a flash game or something. However, maybe it'll feel different during play. Definitely glad you can switch styles. Still will be getting this just to support Gargoyles stuff. Wonder if they'll add any voice work from the original cast? Can never have too much Keith David.

  • What else do you think they do during those long haul warps?
  • Classic goof here, you used scenes from two different seasons! Geordi is wearing operations gold in the top photo and command red in the bottom! Never mind the fact that they are wearing two different uniform styles.

    I certainly hope someone is fired for this blunder.

  • I just watched this review the other day and it reminded me that this game existed. I played it back in the day I've been playing it with an improvement hack that cleans up a lot of it, and I've been loving it. I highly recommend it to people who like dungeon crawlers and turn based RPGs.

    Sabotage Studio initially projected sales of 250,000 copies of Sea of Stars in the first year. They hit that target within just a week.
  • Good, I hope this means we get even more turn-based RPGs again. I'm 100% fine with people enjoying the new action-oriented RPGs like Final Fantasy has become, but I love turn based so much more. I didn't like that it felt like there couldn't be both on the market. There is just something way more enjoyable to me about turn-based as opposed to mashing buttons and twitchy moves like I'm playing God of War.

  • Who is a Youtuber you find to be overrated ?
  • Is all of them a valid answer?

  • Burger Assembly Engineer sounds pretty impressive.

  • My mother-in-law lives with us and has been diagnosed with Alzheimers. We've been dealing with it for about a year but things are progressively getting worse. What are options for care?

    She gets social security, and we don't have a lot of money ourselves and are no longer able to be with her 24/7. We are in Maryland, and are scared of what we can do. Will her medicare do anything? Is it too late for something like long term care insurance? We have no idea where to start.

    Thanks for any insight.

    8BitDo releases adapter for using modern controllers on PS1 and PS2
  • Awesome, finally! I've been waiting for this... I just hope it works with the Memcard Pro as well. I bought a cheap wireless controller for my PS1 and the power draw from it plus the Memcard Pro would cause games to crash or not load.

  • They should be illegal
  • Oh MR. CU*NT, what a complete cunt.

  • Install OS X from USB

    Hi all, I am not extremely well versed in the Apple ecosystem, but recently I was able to acquire a 2018 MacBook Pro from my company's surplus and wanted to play around with it. However, when I go to do a recovery on it, it forces me to connect to the company's device management and installs a bunch of junk I don't want. I spoke to our IT, and they said they won't remove it from the device management pool until it is out of their warranty period which evidently is still a year or so.

    My question is, if I were to be able to install from USB instead of from the internet, would it allow me to bypass the device management, or will it still prompt once I've got everything installed and connected?

    If I CAN install from USB, how would I go about getting a Ventura install image without another Mac to download from? I currently only have Windows systems otherwise.

    Essentially I am trying to see if it is possible to use it without the device management stuff, because if not I am just going to return it to our surplus.

    Thanks!
