I think the Guthrie case had Nest cameras, thus the Google servers.


What's your definition of a car person? I don't care for the guy, but having multiple modified super cars and building several custom trucks in the past -- he seems like a car [truck] person to me?


He's a youtuber whose niche is outrage bait for engagement and views.


Someone like James May.


I prefer Sarah-n-tuned but something tells me that folks who want to purity test folks on if they are a “car person” or not will really dislike the idea of a trans female appearing person knowing more about cars than 99% of the “car people” of YouTube.


Well at least now if Google ever locks my account I won't lose access to all my email aliases.


That's sort of how it works. The car "wakes" the key up to auth with it when you touch the switch on the door. The relay attack is bidirectional so it replays both the wake up from car to key and the response from key to car.


This might be the final push I needed to migrate off of Google services. It's been all too convenient to have a one stop shop for everything, but I couldn't imagine my rage if I lost all of my child's pictures because Google decided that the picture of their first bath (no genitals or face in frame) was too risky.

What's recommended for a domain registrar to move my domains over to?

I figure I can probably self-host photo/file backups, move 2FA to Bitwarden, and migrate mail over to a paid Protonmail plan, but who can I trust for domain names? Mostly just for email aliases, but a couple for some hobby websites. GoDaddy can take a hike, and I've used namecheap before but what other options are good/trusted?


Cloudflare does DNS and domain registration. They are subject to US laws but they have been very hands off and pro free speech (too much IMO, protecting abhorrent sites) but that does give more trust in this case.


Source?


I recently discovered a neat trick that if you Google the url for the private video (you still have this in your list), you're likely to find the title of the video, therefore allowing you to at least figure out what it was and seek out a new video.


This works about half the time. It's better than nothing, but not great.


Thank You! I needed this all my life!


That's assuming auto manufacturers will actually provide you with continuous updates and not just charge you for access to the core feature without ever bothering to update it. Much like how infotainment software can vary from one model year to the next while the hardware remains mostly unchanged--they're usually not giving you the option to just stop by the dealer for an update, much less let you do it yourself via USB or OTA.

To be fair though, my example isn't absolute--as far as infotainment goes, Chevrolet has done free Android Auto/Carplay retrofits in the past if your older model hardware supported it, and Ford SYNC is upgradable by the consumer via USB. I don't know of any Toyota models that offer that same though.


Doesn't HDS require you to obtain a number from the cars ECU to then pass that into an Internet-connected HDS terminal where you have to sign in with your dealer and technician credentials so you can put in a request for another number from a Honda server somewhere for you to input back into the ECU in order to program another transponder?


I feel the same way about Facebook groups. I'd much rather create a throwaway account registered with my domain (whateverforum@mydomain.com) for every forum than create and use a Facebook or Discord account to engage with multiple communities. I don't want or need a centralized "social" account.
