Comment Apps (Score 1) 105

I've been using a Linux laptop for a decade, but when the new Air came out recently, I jumped back to Mac even though Dell has a comparable laptop because Preview is better for viewing photos than any of the Linux photo apps. It seems like a minor thing, but since the main thing I do on my laptop is check email, web browse, and manage photos, and thunderbird and chrome are pretty much equal across platforms, photos are the distinguishing item.

On my desktop, there are other apps that make MacOS the winner, despite the fact that each version keeps getting worse. I have my Linux vms for the non-gui services I use though.

I'm constantly have apps completely freeze and having to kill and restart them, and every new version of osx seems to make nfs worse and worse. Very frustrating...

And you are unfit to be making comments - I know quite well it's not self driving, the hype over "autopilot" is *way* overblown and I'm really glad I didn't waste money on "full self driving" which doesn't actually add much to autosteer.

That said, autosteer is a nice convenience most of the time and "Accelerate it to your liking and then let driver assist do it again" is not how it works. When it gets the speed limit wrong, it's simply unusable unless you like blocking traffic (or, I suppose, want to manually control speed while letting it steer, but personally, I prefer the reverse).

Comment Need to be better at knowing the actual limit (Score 1) 207

My Tesla Model Y often limits the speed when using autosteer to 5 mph over the speed limit...and frequently fails to notice that the speed limit increased after passing through a small town and even sometimes on the freeway, which makes it really annoying when the speed limit is 70 and it thinks it's 45...
