Its funny at that point of my life I would have moved for the right job, but these where often my literal job but in a worse place.

It was nice to see the line go down

Hey at least it is in the same city, I used to get ones for 2000 Km away.

It’s what plants crave!

Where are your primary sources?

Does that also mean you don’t understand what they are?

See this does not work the way you think it does.

I mean, I too would not be real interested in a vehicle where parts have been known to fall off or small safety issues like oh I don’t know PLOWING INTO THE GROUND SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF

As is tradition (now anyway)

Ha, “fail faster” indeed

Yay, another Chromium based web browser. That will show them…

What? That is gold, not Mildly Infuriating at all.

Welp, great it is time to crosspost to a boring dystopia. Again…

Meanwhile in the bingilator:

done

Sorry to have to put this out here, but I think this would be less damage as getting hit with a non dick beetle. That dick is more then likely just fiberglass and maybe some wood, making a large “crumple zone”.

I have been thinking on this all day, and can not stop thinking on it.

Those dead, cold eyes…

That’s for the common good

The issue is normalizing the concept that you do not get to control what you paid for. Responsibility has not changed, you can drive your car into a crowded park and would still be guilty of it regardless of how stock it is. If you mod your stuff to be dangerous that would be a crime. In this case would you say that remote starting your car from your phone somehow is a public safety issue? At least if you jailbroke it to work on your own network?

This might shock you but cars where open source for years. Did you think those super detailed shop manuals anyone could buy where not intended to be used to work on the car? How about the massive aftermarket and any and all hot rods? This idea that you can’t fuck with you own stuff because its got a computer in it for “safety” is relatively new. Does no one else remember hooking a laptop up to the old ECUs and modifying how the engine works?

Here is a thing I found after a simple google search. Its not even a good article but hey I spent more time typing this then finding it…

Well it is a computer that people own (even if it is in a car), and at least one person will want to mess with that computer.

Remind me again what assumptions you can make about software integrity if the hardware it runs on is in full possession of a known attacker?

Ah, that explains it then. I have not run in 10 years and would not have thought of that.
