Anything that may help develop better adblockers/paywall bypasses or exposes how/what of our personal information is collected is a win in my book. And this may very well be none of those things.

Hardbody Nissan. It's kind of a homoerotic name but the 90's were a different time.

Yeah, here you go. Nothing special, but unmolested ones are getting hard to find. I do hope more of the car community finds it's way here.

I use KDE Connect for a simple way to find where I've left my phone at home or work (it has some really handy other features too in an open source program). If you need to locate it anywhere, even if it's in airplane mode, you're probably going to have to sacrifice privacy for that.

I couldn't find where to opt-out in that link, but this worked:

Open Settings.
Navigate to Security.
Select Find My Device.
Toggle Find My Device to Off.
