I just want to use navigation and listen to music. That's all I need carplay to be.

That's some perfect irony. A queer instance using the Afghanistan domain.

Also serving it on anything but a plate.

exclusively for illegal and just generally anti social behavior.

Except they aren’t. These devices are used for various non-illegal purposes and are actually helpful for pentesters so we can learn about potential vulnerabilities on wireless systems before they can be exploited by bad actors. The same way a usb cable is useful for transferring data and at the same time can be used for illegal stuff (like literally any hack where you connect to a device via usb). The worst part (and the article mentions it), is that it doesn’t even work on security systems on cars built since the 90’s. So they’re banning something that isn’t even a problem in the first place.

I’m gonna buy some tikoy/tekoy today!

Flipper Zero can't be used to hijack any car, specifically the ones produced after the 1990s, since their security systems have rolling codes

So actually doing nothing.

This is like banning usb cables so Hyundai/Kia cars won’t be stolen, instead of forcing the car manufacturer to just install an actual immobilizer on affected vehicles. Seeing Hyundai/Kia do everything but install immobilizers is infuriating as well. They’re rolling out software updates, giving out wheel locks, installing cages on the ignition panel, etc. Literally everything but fix the problem.

Same for me. I'm more productive at home and the occasional office visit is primarily for socializing with coworkers. There's only one other person in my team in my office location and we just schedule 2 or 3 days a month where we meet up in the office to catch up.

The Tesla board is definitely glassy eyed.

Don't know if they're a mega corp, but FreeTaxUSA has been great for me. Free for simple federal tax returns.

If I made 29B in one morning, I’d fuck off and will never be heard of again in the news.

Just wait till you need to buy enough stuff to hit the $35 minimum for free delivery. It takes a maximum 4-5 days for stuff to arrive but sometimes they can arrive as early as 2 days. I never went on prime after my free trial.
