Google maps is drunk. I'm at the blue dot & wanted to see how long it would take to walk to the red flag and this is the route it suggested. (thelemmy.club)

I find many of the changes google has made in the last 2 years really stupid.

The "go past this light and turn at blah blah road" is way too fucking wordy and can lead to missing turns because by the time its dome speaking you have already drove past. I want road name plus minimal direction feature. Stop trying to humanize the gps. I think I yell at the GPS to shut the fuck up more and more.

Google is better than Siri. My wife is so iPhone and so anti-Android, but even she hates how Siri waits until the last second.

For real. Half the time I am like “You mean turn on the street I drove past two seconds ago?”

It sounds like your car has a super long Bluetooth delay. Try plugging in.
