  • Man, I really feel like GM had been doing a lot of things right. Every manufacturer has their ups and downs, pros and cons, but they seemed like they were really trying to innovate.

    But then they had to go and remove Android Auto and CarPlay and, with a straight face, try to tell us it was for our convenience. Instead, behind our backs, they admitted it was for their data-grubby fetish.

    Fuck off, GM.

    And fuck you for destroying the faith and hope I had in your journey. The goodwill you lost from me and others will take some time to rebuild.

    So, in the meantime, who cares if this EV is affordable or not. It has no spot in my garage.





  • In what way is it not ready to use?

    To me it seems you just spent three paragraphs answering your own question.

    can’t even see 50 meters ahead

    didn’t understand what it was and how to react to it

    FSD is not a finished product. It’s under development

    doesn’t mean it’s obvious to the AI

    If I couldn’t trust a system not to drive into a train, I don’t feel like I would trust it to do even the most common tasks. I would drive the car like a fully attentive human and not delude myself into thinking the car is driving me with “FSD.”







  • The Turris Omnia is an open, powerful router that comes with OpenWRT.

    Turris adds an additional UI and features beyond that, but the OpenWRT UI is still available and the stock firmware can be completely replaced with OpenWRT if so desired.

    It’s a bit pricey but has great specs (1.6 GHz dual core, 2GB RAM, 8GB eMMC) and is an excellent device for tinkerers with headers exposing UART, JTAG, GPIO, and more. It has three internal mPCIe ports as well.

    I am not affiliated with Turris but just happened to stumble upon a new one at a garage sale a couple of days ago. Lucky find and I’m excited.



  • I’m confused how I would have written that as well. Coincidental for sure. I think I did have “modern” in the title initially and didn’t realize editing left it since it’s similar. I dunno.

    I speak English and I’m actually old enough to know what modem stands for, unfortunately 😂.

    edit: It was autocorrect apparently. It happened again and was almost impossible to detect because of the similarity.
