For insurance to cover it the data tells them whether you are using it or not. If you don’t meet the minimum usage they won’t pay for the machine. Buying it yourself negates that, but they can get spendy.
Do not buy Philips.
Whereas we are smack dab in the middle of cities, but just far enough out of reach to be stuck with 20Mb DSL that will never improve.
I really loved this game way back when it came out. Still have the disc for it. I will have to check this out.
Yes, whilst you do have a telemetry box, it is not phoning home. Data must be actively pulled from it by hand. As you know, typically this is done after an accident to better tell what the car went through. I know there are people who have sought to disable the boxes, but I don’t know the legal or insurance ramifications of doing so. It is also difficult to locate them as they are “hidden” in the mass of wiring and other components. There are probably manufacturer-specific auto forum discussions on the matter to refer to.
Years ago I found a good list of manufacturers and the year they became compliant. I can’t seem to find the same list today (isn’t that the way with the internet?). I did find this site that seems to list the recovery capability of the vehicles which indicates whether they are compliant or not. This should suffice:

It looks like you are in luck! Bad luck anyways. 2012 was the first year that Honda model was compliant according to that site.
Edit: Here is another list so you might cross check (PDF warning): https://www.collision-recon.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/EDR-Supported-Vehicles-List.pdf
Every car. Not pretty much every one, but every one. Telemetry boxes have been around for a while and you can even get Telemetry Insurance if you have one. I think by 2015 all manufacturers had them.
Edit: I want to also state this is for the US. Other nations are also doing this, but may not be there yet.
Really? Which episode? It’s been a few years…and were they making a movie…? Yes, they did. I went and looked on imdb. I’ll need to see that.
Such a great show!
Here we have men going infertile, whereas in the movie it is the women. Yes, they could follow, certainly. Placentas might not be viable because of all the microplastics, or something. I don’t know as I am no babyologist.
Children of Men almost had it right.
I guess this comment is kinda useless
Props for self-awareness and yet still smashing that “reply” button, but I still think your comment is slightly useful. I often just click the “cancel” button once the “useless comment” realization hits me.
Edit: I am wrestling with it now, just after I clicked reply.
I love pudding cups! Oh shit, I am olde!
Many years ago, we had a troubled employee leave work very mad. He was quite furious with his computer and went home for his revolver unbeknownst to us. He came back to work with it and unloaded all six rounds into the system. Each round went through the case and each one missed the drive/motherboard/videocard. So, the system was still working despite the abrupt extra cooling holes. This further incensed him and he went away even madder, but this time in cuffs.
Yes, and one of the reasons I want to keep it going. It’s an old Fujitsu and has a cool form factor (another reason). I recycled about a dozen laptops a few months back, but could not bear to see this one go. It came with XP, but I don’t care to reload that at all. Am also downloading older versions of Slack to see if they’ll work.
I have an old laptop with a Transmeta Crusoe CPU. Can anyone recommend a distro that will work on it? I’ll download this one and give it a shot too.
I don’t agree with everything you’ve said, but I hear you. Old habits die hard. I grew up with very little available to me. It ingrained this model I have now which is more difficult to shed. It is a constant battle to reduce what I have around, but then that nag of “I might need that” speaks up and it forces the internal struggle.
I have made headway there, as I now have a decision tree I push through to keep or rid myself of stuff, but the struggle continues.
Valid point. So I guess it just matters what you find. Make use of anything available.
I really like this philosophy and it sticks with me even today as I try to use whatever I have at hand. I am reluctant to toss anything with some modicum of useful value. I am told this makes me a packrat. I don’t mind.
Costs? These materials are easily found roadside or elsewhere. The blocks have chunks missing or are uneven, so a matchbook or folded cardboard helps level out the wobble for the weather-soaked grey plank.
I know as I’ve done just that.
Two cinder blocks and a rough sawn plank.
That’ll do.
Squirrel!!!
