It’s an improvement, but like most improvements, it creates additional complexity (things that can go wrong). I absolutely love that I can walk up to my car, pull the handle, and the door unlocks and can be opened. Then I just get in, press start and go, and the key never leaves my pocket. Is any of that necessary?…

Wow, you’re a dramatic lady! No, it wasn’t that big of a deal, and the app automagically calls another car. But it was funny in light of the article (this one!) I read during the ride.

Ah, I hadn’t thought of that. Good point and probably accurate.

I suppose if uber rides were 100% of your monthly expenses that would be an apt comparison...

I ride twice a week (from home to airport, from airport to home) and the fare is always exactly what was quoted. Different drivers have taken different routes, but the fare (for me at least) has always been exactly what the app said it would be

It’s about $1/mile. And actual distance doesn’t seem to impact cost. The fate is quoted when you input your destination

If you charge EVERYONE 5% more you get a 5% raise.

I’m a white male and this morning a black female uber driver canceled on me. Not sure what this means but I’m afraid.

Tyrone, Malik, Andre, D’andre, De’shawn, Lakeisha, Tuwanna, Ebonee, Tyrese, Taneisha, Left Eye, Keiasha, Jamal...

I’d hit it.

Pretty much anything coming from Mercedes in the early ‘80s is a win

Happens to the best of us. The 126 may have been the perfect automobile.

Missed one

Mercedes has done the wiper on the end of the turn signal stalk thing for at least 30 years. It’s fantastic! Everything in one place! Maybe their implementation is just better than what you experienced, but I love it.

Okay... you’re either making this up as you go or you’re 15. Can’t tell which.

1. If each person buys their own car charger why did you reference the cost to the company? How does that impact your profitability or bonus?

Actually, I am in business. That’s why I can see how absurd your argument is.

If your company can afford to deploy 200 iPhones they can afford 200 car chargers.

but lightning IS an option! You can buy a phone with micro USB or lightning if you want. It’s your choice. Why would you buy one with lightning and then complain about it? Fucking weird dude.

i don’t understand what you’re saying. If you need a new car charger then buy one. They’re like $15. Good thing you don’t use android though! First you would have had a mini USB car charger and then you would have had to buy a micro USB and now you’d need a USB c. The greed is undeniable.
