Just in case anyone wants this converted to freedom units, 9.792 km is 744 spindles, and 2,6 km is about 95 shackles. HTH

That would be approximately 48,188,975 and 12,795 bananas respectively, assuming 8 inch average banana length. What fruit are we using for scale over here anyways? I missed some committee meetings.
Google Assistant is definitely getting worse and worse all the time. When the Google Homes first released they were actually pretty useful and handy. I was willing to pick a few up and they served a good purpose. They ran CIRCLES around Alexa and all those.
Now many years later, the devices don't hear questions correctly, have to ask them four different times, they can't even pick up my wife's prompt words anymore, don't even give reasonable answers when they do get the question right... It's made hundreds of dollars worth of devices infuriating and useless.
I bought a product that worked. It no longer works because it's been "updated".
The worst part is that they're still way better than Alexa. I hate the Google Home app; I can't use the Alexa app.
I'm so glad I'm not alone in this opinion. It's absurd.
No, a lot of people recognize it has gotten worse, but the post is a device that doesn't run off google maps but rather another guidance program so it will end up off topic everywhere
Sometimes I really struggle to understand how Google Maps works. I take some time finding the right area I want to search in, center the map in a very specific place, then search for a term or category and then it takes me to a completely different country to show the results.
It was doing this to me yesterday, kind of infuriating.
Do you guys like Burger King? I stopped eating there a long time ago and feel no need to go back after the foot lettuce incident…
TIL that incident
LOL how you can post that on 4chan and think they won't do everything to doxx you 😂
I actually enjoy burger King but they are super unhealthy so I rarely go. Maybe once per year
I find Burger King has the best pictures of the worst burgers.
Terrible food, even by the ultra low standards set by McDonald's.
The Magic Earth app on Android auto does this to me all the time, I'll bring up a saved address that's only a short drive away and it will say it's like 2000km away until I actually start navigation.
Try giving Android Auto the location permission and see if that fixes it.
I swear it used to be possible to tell the assistant to navigate to the nearest [franchise] and it would understand it. How has it gotten so much worse over time?
I don't know, but my guess would be people gaming the algorithms. Search results have also gone to shit after everyone SEO-ed them to death, and this is probably the same.
My favorite optimization is this restaurant in NYC called Thai Food Near Me:
You didn't say nearest to what...
It's a GPS device. Why wouldn't the default be closest to your current location?
Because the local one didn't pay as much for placement.
Some guy in Malaysia:
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
What we really need is c/SoftwareGore
Yeah it exists !softwaregore
Edit: I don't know how to do the magic linking thing but https://lemmy.world/c/softwaregore
!softwaregore@lemmy.world
Just do what it says. Drive to Malaysia. But chances are you'll pass a few burger kings on the way.
Is that Magic Earth?
Yes
maybe the others on the way are closed
Oh cmon, 9 thousand kilometers is just around the corner there /s
Integer overflow? Seems kinda unlikely but just throwing possiblities out there...
I like to see Magic Earth being used in the wild. Didn't think anyone else was using it lol.
I tried to see what interesting local variants they have in Malaysia and it honestly looks pretty good by American fast food standards:
I would honestly prefer this over the current state of 38 variants of Whopper where they're just rearranging the toppings.
20 year old me would see that as an opportunity for an epic Harold & Kumar inspired road trip.
