Pass! Not a scooby, I'm afraid!
I'll have a sniff when I'm next doing maintenance if it's not apparent soon :)

Edit: Both of those images failed to load when I tried, maybe the upload failed? To the logs!

I'm still convinced that Internet Historian wrote it.

And they've done better than we did with Beagle 2.

Personally, I'm keen to see if the proverbial doors get blown off the first few gens of electric cars, and the FOSS community makes headway.
I would happily buy an old Leaf if I knew we could handle all the software ourselves, and just do battery swaps when the range wasn't enough any more.

That would not surprise me at all.
In the UK, they have a huge tax incentive as company cars. People are definitely getting them for the tax benefig, and not giving a shit about the electrics.

Though honestly, if it means almost all company cars are at least regenerative braking, and the tech is there is someone does want to use it, it's not the worst thing.
I might end up with a PHEV in a few years, as most of my driving is very short distance, and I can't justify the cost of a 200mi+ BEV for the 1 trip a month that needs it. And putting second hand PHEVs on the market helps that.

These are different attack vectors.
The classic one was listening to a key, then impersonating it later.
Rolling keys fixed that.

For keyless, the usual attack is working as a relay.
Victim is 30m from their car, too far for keyless.
Attacker stands between the car and the victim with a transceiver that links the car and the key together, despite the distance, and opens it.

Ah, the Season 4 finale of For All Mankind.

2048x1080 is DCI 2K.

The slight difference between the ratios is why home releases of films often have small black bars at the top and bottom, as the DCI flat ratio is slightly different than 16:9.

And whenever you're trading options for shits and giggles, remember that the market can stay irrational far longer than we can remain solvent.

This is why I believe in some geo-located communities.
It's easier to find common ground when you're complaining about the same weather.
And then when you're interacting with the wider communities, your host community can give context to your way of thinking.

Turns out Poole was a decade ahead of AI, with the self-destructing threads.
