    I had never heard of Western Sahara, nor did I know about Morocco's involvement even though I've visited Morocco several times. So I found this very interesting and I learnt someth…

    Single data point; no, I don't. I preferred the pre-AI world. It makes me sad that we'll never see it again.

    Same, I also live very close to Gatwick, the train is about 4 stops for me and puts me right at the terminal. Zero reason to drive.

    Which is exactly why alll my cameras live in their own VLAN with no internet access, regardless of how trustworthy the company may be. Better safe than sorry and all that.

    I highly doubt that the extra traffic is really the problem, it's merely the catalyst which caused this post to be written.

    Safer settings are exposed with decent labels, but you can also use the advanced mode which is much more low-level, akin to what you described.

    Bimmercode lets you do coding (it's very powerful and you can easily mess up your car so you have to be very careful with it), and Bimmerlink lets you read fault codes etc.

    The person presenting is also important. I may be interested in the topic but if I don't like the presenter or their delivery then I'm still not going to watch it. Text doesn't hav…

    You're correct that the dongle only facilitates the connection, but you don't need dealer software. I have an ODB dongle and a £20 (I think) app on my phone which lets me change a …

    When you start breaking capitalism down into small chunks like this, it _is_ insane.

    If you aren't going to write a comment yourself then please don't bother at all. I read enough slop as it is already.

    I'm guessing you've never heard of Hashicorp (Terraform, Vault) then? Mitchell == Hashicorp.
