Well that entirely depends on if you have millions worth in shares in fossil fuels or not.

Scientist?

I really like the win7 beta background (with the betta fish):

So is Primark and Nestle, yet here we are.

How about fighting the competition by building better cars instead of seeking tax exemption?

I guess it highlights why there should be no age limit… the response to introduce an age limit of 30 days certainly is not the right one.

Same on iOS… so it is a pretty universal gesture.

I heard you need to exclude Android auto in the WireGuard settings, then it should work.

The reason is that the car communicates via IP with your phone. But when all phone traffic is routed through your home, it can not reach the car.

Signed software does not equal blackbox. You can still verify that the software in the vehicle is the same as the provided one (download the software from the vehicle and compare checksums for example).

Again, there must be software parts that must pass homologation to be allowed to run on public roads. The same is true for a lot of things, your laptop for example has lots of firmware blocks that you are not allowed to change because of regulations (emc and emi for example).

And that is a good thing. Trust me, you don’t want untested software on the street, risking lives. That’s why vehicle testing is done first on closed roads.

Ah, but this is a different discussion. You want to be able to run modified software in a vehicle.

Then the question becomes an architectural one. Which Software components do you actually want to modify and still be street legal? In theory a modular structure can be build where all homologation and safety relevant limits are fixed and monitor the other non critical components. These non critical components could be changed without needing new homologation (you know, like „apps“).

You could also make the other ones modifiable with the limitation of losing street legality. So you could only run it on closed tracks or private land. Just like manufacturers do today.

This is the same like for closed source. A new software release must be tested and have regression tests that homologation relevant parts are not changed and if they are changed, that they do not violate regulations.

That’s also one of the reasons why the software has different components. So that you can update the hmi for example without affecting the steering function.

Going down further that road, there are very specific regulations that cover software updates in particular. There needs to be a software update Management process behind it that makes sure software is only distributed to vehicles that it is designed for.

But none of that would be more difficult with open source…

Again, we are not talking about a crowd built vehicle, there still needs to be a manufacturer behind it.

This is only the infotainment. This has nothing to do with the rest of the car

Mm not really. The TÜV does not have a problem with open source.

But you need a manufacturer and a company that stands behind it.

But open source car does not equal diy car.

I would say look into the chaos Computer Congress in Germany.

It takes place every year between Christmas and new years.

There is also plenty of other chaos events throughout the year which are smaller abut still very much worth the visit.

Yes, it was mainly just renaming jellyseerr. It is mature software.

„our requirements are unique, we can not build a fighter together with France because it does not fit our requirements!“

Then they go ahead and want to buy standard American fighters… what a joke.

Looks like the iOS app is not available in the AppStore but only to build it yourself…

Ah, so your worry is law enforcement?

To be honest, I am quite confident that the level of security for the access of my phone is fine for the level of energy they are willing to spend on a random person.

The smart thing would be to collaborate… I am no expert, but I don’t see any reason why a fighter jet for France should be any different than one for Germany.

Maybe Usenet. Scenenzbs.com is a tracker with lots of German movies and series.
