Joke's on you, we all use btrfs with snapper.

We are very aware!

 

Miss Nessa is/was/occasionally semi-feral, and still has signs of it. She will not lay on a human. She'll walk over you, let you pick her up, let you pet her, but she hard-bites and has zero differentiation between play and ripping to bits. It also isn't easy to read her cues unless you're with her for a while or know her already. So, I take care of her since she can't really be around kids or the elderly, and as long as you remember her rules and keep your eye on her when petting her, she's fine, loving and chill.

As much as any treaties and agreements made anywhere else, if I had to guess.

Hardly any. I feel two might be optimistic.

I imagine they're still searching for the network despite not being able to reach anything, so maybe a local hack would be possible near the vehicle, but remotely? Idk.

My personal strategy to avoid this situation is to just not buy a car with those "features". If I can't know before I buy it, then I won't bother to care to know. Keep your secrets, I'll keep my $.

At some level, I'd put the blame of some of this on the consumer.

Something being a scam on some level should be the inherent suspicion of basically everything you intend to purchase. The chances a product is straightforward and trustworthy seem to be far less likely these days than the opposite.

I drive a 2014 si

That Civic is hands down the most bulletproof, refined and perfected k-series car Honda ever produced, or ever will, at this point.

If anyone reading this wants a V6, find a manual TL. Equally bulletproof, but with a J-series and room to stretch out and they are CHEAP for zero reason on the market. I don't even understand it other than they don't really have tuning potential, but as a commuter car, they can't be beat for the price to comfort. They ride like clouds and have 300hp to punch with if you stomp them down an offramp.

Jazz, to me, a layman to the genre comes off as anything from Miles Davis and Duke Ellington to soundtracks composed for animes, to progressive epics that span twenty minutes and spin into a free form improv that's somewhere between art and math.

But aside from it being a flavor other things come in, like a jazzy rock band, Mars Volta or a jazzy metal band, like Opeth, or a jazzy singer, like Michael Buble, I don't know jazz.

I don't think as a normal person that I'm exposed to pure "jazz", whatever it dilutes into, but I'm fascinated by the chance that there might be something I'm missing that you might mention.

If the data isn't being paid for anymore, they can't connect to anything at all. Is T-Mobile or Verizon or whoever expected to foot the bill ten years down for no reason? There may be some definitions of connecting I'm missing, but I reasoned a data connection over some sort of cellular network.

But then, if it's some hidden proprietary magic on some unused bands, who knows?

My mom won't stop continually trying to cure her type 1 diabetes with every conceivable bullshit product known to mankind, assured by God and stubbornness that it can be done. Most of it, she hides from her doctor.

This week it's mushroom coffee. Last month it was CBD pills. Usually always from Facebook ads. I give her a lecture every time. She ignores it every time. It's basically all she spends he money on and you can't tell her not to. Sometimes it isn't even an online product and I'll find every salt container in the trash can.

we don't eat salt anymore, it's the problem

Then I have to wrestle all of it back out, explain the history of cooking from 2000 years to now and why is important then ask who on earth told her that.

Every. Single. Week and she falls for it every single time. Ugh.

He obviously doesn't think anyone will do anything about it.

He's right, they probably won't.

[–] GhiLA@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

welp, that's all done!

disconnect it from the internet again

Oddly enough, the cars will be more secure used since all of those online features will be defunct and abandoned for newer, more "advanced" shitware in ten years.

Continuing the tradition that buying used is always a good idea. Thank you, auto industry.
