It’s more unusual than anything. TPM2 and Secure boot are requirements I would expect from a security compliance checklist and software handling at least somewhat valuable data, like maybe a password vault.

A steam game is the last place I would expect this.

Rookie mistake. Eyeryone knows you’re supposed to play Pepper Coyote’s Blast Radius when you have this opportunity.

I wonder if we’ll ever get enough standardization across EVs so people can start doing the electric equivalent of an LS swap.
I could see this being done on a Slate truck, along with an auxiliary EV battery bolted in the back.

Now the big question is: can this be used as case law against future attempts by Nintendo to stomp on fair use and other parody works?

Dang, nothing near where I live.

Could always make them waste even more resources by adding noise to what little data they might have.
I’m Spartacus Banksy!

First Spain, and now Ireland. I don’t even know what goes on at Eurovision, but let’s hope the momentum on this keeps going.

Not suitable for this.

GPS is a purely one-way method, with the satellites transmitting only their position and a timecode, leaving the receiver to do the triangulation. And if they did send any sort of custom data packets over that method, it would just confuse the crap out of every other receiver across most of the world, causing potential device crashes, drawing attention from ham operators worldwide…

And also massively pissing off the US military. Turns out a lot of their equipment and munitions make use of GPS and INS, so fucking with those satellites is a no-go.

I think you’re off by a decade there. My 2010 car has no mobile connectivity.

Huh, and I thought that was only for the os activation, but no. ESU support is right there, under the TSForge activation method.

Given that you’re using this for a laptop, you’re looking for a monitor. Not a TV.

Anything suitable for office work should be good here.

Listen mate, the fact that you’re even reading instructions at all instead of chucking the technical stuff aside, or trying to force some unlucky family member to be tech support, puts you miles above most of the people I’ve dealt with.

I had one guy demand I physically come down to his desk for an issue that was “blocking an important report”. It was literally just Windows asking if he wanted to overwrite an old file.

Amazing idea, but if the wiring in that second picture is anywhere near commonplace, you’re going to want to put a bit more budget into power grid maintenance. That rats nest of cabling is bad enough from a low voltage IT perspective, I can only how terrifying that would be for HV engineers.

Don’t sugarcoat it. It is the dictionary definition of heresy.

…It’s a constitutional violation so blatant it makes you wonder if Bailey got his law degree from a cereal box.

Absolutely savage. I love it.

Cool. Do anticheat vendors next.

Boi…

No worries, shit happens. As long as I was able to drill them through quelling their panic and evaluating the threat, I did my part.

You’d be surprised how universal this skill is, and conversely, his easily a panicked person can be coerced into a decision that benefits a bad actor. Look over some of the banking and computer scams that come from India, I guarantee most will hinge on keeping the target panicked and not thinking clearly.

If that’s the case, it’s possible I’ve communicated poorly. The overall sentiment should be:

• Don’t Panic. Seriously, panicking almost always results in poor decisions.
• Discern the threat model from all available intel.
• Plan accordingly.

Probably just funding stuff, given what you said about sanctuary cities.

Take a deep breath, focus, and check if the article body identifies what specifically is being targeted. News articles always sensationalize the titles anyways.
