How about Apple gives the gift of not auto playing random shit that I never listen to every time my iPhone automatically synchs with my car in the morning?? 

Can someone start a go fund me so we can hire some people to help support Apple in its difficulty managing the basic functions of its services?

Yes 1000 times. Very annoying.

I’m living in Oslo, Norway and the number electrical vehicles on the streets here is extremely high. Walking the streets I can often count 20 electrical vehicles in just under a minute. Looking forward to seeing what Apple will eventually make. In true Apple spirit though, I hope they’ll try to actually solve some problems instead of just launching a fine car. Traffic jams and single driving cars needs to be addressed. Slightly larger minibus like ride sharing alternatives could be cool.

I hired a Tesla the other week to get a full experience on a longer road trip. The driving experience was great but the two sore teeth that stood out were:

1. The traffic/ vehicles that the autopilot displayed on the screen, especially for cars going in the opposite direction, were VERY incomplete. It missed more vehicles than it got right. If what’s displayed on screen is what the Autopilot truly sees I would never trust the Tesla autopilot. It feels like it could drive safely only if other drivers drive safely. In a situation where a collision needs to be avoided, and it misses a few cars, it could be fatal.

2. The range prediction didn’t seem to take current driving conditions and weather into consideration. On my first drive (500km) the weather was fine, and the range prediction seemed largely on point. I planned my charge after 250km and it was then around 40%. But on my other drive (300km) it was both windy and heavy rain, the prediction was exactly the same as in fine weather. I planned my charge after 200km and the battery was then at 3%. Nerve wrecking!

It is very distressing how litigious the U.S. is. I just feel very strongly that we should take personal responsibility. The crash was not the fault of the car. It was the fault of the driver. I still, after all of these years, think about the woman who sued McDonald’s because she spilled hot coffee on her lap. I of course believe that people should have the right to sue, but people take it way to far. If people are trespassing on my property without my consent, they should not be allowed to sue me for example.

thank you!
