I know there are teething pains when it comes to new vehicle platforms and new infotainment systems, but to have it affect things like the digital dashboard while saying that Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are "unsafe" fills me up to the brim with schadenfreude.

Today in Labor History February 11, 1937: General Motors recognized the United Auto Workers (UAW) following a 44-day sit-down strike in Flint, Michigan, involving 48,000 GM workers. Two months later, company guards beat up UAW leaders at the River Rouge, Michigan plant. On January 11, police armed with guns and tear gas tried to storm the plant.

Das coolste am GMing ist... wenn du alle Watch Later geguckt hast, keine Partner für Brettspiele oder Rollenspiel zur Verfügung stehen, wenn du alles schon gelesen hast...
... stellst du einfach deinen eigenen Content her. Es muss nicht gut sein, aber ein Gehirn auf "idle thrust" ist immer noch ein Gehirn. Schau raus, geh spazieren oder mach die Augen zu. Du bist deines eigenen Contents Schmied!
I spent a good chunk of my career in the towers of the #RenCen . . . while GM leaving for the new Hudson building is a really big deal, perhaps even bigger is that Bedrock and the city now have the chance to do great things with the riverfront.
Moin zusammen,

Tja, ich bin vor gut 6 Jahren hier angefangen, ohne vorher in einem sozialen ...äh... kommerziellen Netzwerk gewesen zu sein.
Ich bin kein "Nerd" sondern interessierter Handwerker. Ich wurde freundlich
begrüßt, mir wurde geholfen, ich habe ausprobiert und mir meine eigene Bubble zusammengestellt.
Ich informiere mich, diskutiere, tausche mich aus, lache, staune, nehme teil.
So wie viele andere auch.
Ist es wirklich so schwer ein wenig Interesse und Zeit zu investieren um von den geschlossenen, kontrollierten, algorithmusgesteuerten, werbefinanzierten und datensammelnden Plattformen zu wechseln?
Ich finde nicht.
Und jetzt habt einen guten #Freitag, das Wochenende steht vor der Tür.
