MONSTA
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.
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.
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.
Two already tried.
(I know, I know)
There’s always someone betting it will go up, just as much as someone is betting to go down, but right now, Blackrock and Fidelity own a lot of BTC, and are selling it to investors via actual, official ETF funds.
You can go on Fidelity and buy into this fund without ever touching BTC, and follow the price along with the holders, just like a gold or oil stock.
things are going to be interesting over the next few years. BTC has entities invested in it’s future. I don’t expect a crash below the ETF price, which… from memory was around $50k, because then investors are in the red.
I’m not in BTC, but it’s a fun thing to watch. Personally, I think the mining of it is a cancer to society, but once you strip all of that way, it’s just another index fund as long as private entities can manipulate the waves in their favor.
I like gold more. You can make stuff with it, buuut Gold is at an ATH… buuut if Kamala wins, BTC will dump and Gold is a sanctuary hold for a lot of BTC holders, so, man what a year it’s gonna be.
Then your plan is kinda flawed from the start, eh?
To sell them more games and merchandise and sell any data it collects.
lol, it looks like a cryptocurrency chart.
They get paid regardless. It’s a crooked system, some of us don’t survive without being equally so, especially from companies and entities that barely know you exist to begin with.
Debt goes to collectors, they come calling, I ignore those too. Credit score in the 600’s. I’ll never afford a home so I don’t really care and I buy junk cars with cash from Facebook.
If America is going to be a greedy capitalist shithole then I’m going to be the stingiest turd in the toilet. They want to get paid for healthcare, take it out of my taxes and make it a proper utility like an actual first world country.
It all sounds insane to me because I treat every TV like a computer monitor. Whatever I plug into it is what it displays. I usually ignore the onboard software as much as possible.
They still get paid, what on earth are you talking about?
America is a corrupt capitalist hellscape. It’s why I don’t have kids, only go to the doctor when shit happens and never pay the bill.
GoG is just as well. Epic, Ubishit, EA.
Take a look at all of them and take the best choice for yourself. No monopoly, here. Steam isn’t paying EA and Ubisoft to suck. They’d suck if Valve existed or not.
Steam isn’t the only choice for a gamer any more than a cheap Civic is the only choice for a poor college freshman.
He could do a lot worse.
Oh well.
YouTube can be past-tense. There’s a million places to post a video these days. Spill out some whiskey and read a book. Fuck em.
Joke’s on you, we all use btrfs with snapper.
We are very aware!
