Isn’t heated tho :P

They don’t “all” have to be connected, the vast majority of available global models aren’t (IE a lot of the affordable Indian/Chinese models).

The vast majority of models sold in the USA are IE Tesla. More affordable models like the Renault Zoe afaik aren’t but I’m not sure how accessible these are in the USA. I’m not sure about the Chevvy Volt tbh… Consumers can purchase to buy a non-connected vehicle.

Out of the EVs I have I mostly use the one that is connected so I can do automations to turn on climate control etc. Connectivity is a convenience/safety thing for me and I assume others…

1. Bidet toilet seat
2. Good mattress & office chair.
3. Home Automation devices (mower/vacuum/lights etc).

Agreed, but specifically an aftermarket electric seat bidet to save in a load of plumbing.

I asked them to check it(the privacy URL) and validate it wasn’t user error and they accused me of “wasting their time”…

No need to apologize, I’m just trying to get clarity if I’m right to call them out or not…

I have one option at 30 euros (this) and another at 60 euros (movistar).

There are others but they have a terrible reputation.

Given that the privacy policy is linked from the contract, can I assume that they will just say “you need to refer to the URL in the contract” and as that URL is non-existent I’m basically not able to protect my rights or does it work the other way?

In the privacy policy it states “We may share information with our business partners to offer you certain products, services or promotions”, it doesn’t explicitly state who they are…

He was my local (Bradford) MP and he was absolutely useless. The main has a fragile ego and is totally dedicated to himself. He is an opportunist politician and Rochdale will suffer for it.

I’m sorry Rochdale, it’s going to be a rough few years…

I assume you mean point of interest?

I don’t see this option in the web based version, also, “similar in the area” != within 15 mins walk.

This feels like the type of thing open street maps could provide a service for where you put in your postcode and it returns the services within a 15 mins walk.

I think a lot of this conversation boils down to someone needing to make an ESP32 device that sits in your OBD port and can be addressed directly for those who have a car that can connect to your home WiFi. I feel like one of those already exists…

RF range is very limited

RF range deployed by most vehicles, yes. Not all RF is equal in range capability.

See “Frequency bands” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_frequency

Below 3 Hz >10(power 5) km

FWIW; this is not a practical problem, it’s a political one. Conversion kits don’t get a pass/by from the law, they are subject to the same laws just like home brew conversions.

Whenever I hear of MTG I think of the Japanese firm and I’m really confused why the business has been assigned a gender -_-

Fun fact: In the UK there is no ability (DVSA/DVLA[requirement to legally taxing/insuring a car]) for legally driving a converted ICE to Electric car. This is due to the MOT test having a test for CO2 and if the test returns null or “out of bounds” the car fails it’s MOT and therefore is illegal to drive.

Such a wonderful country.

I help maintain Etherpad and this cuts so deep.

The main counter-argument I have is restrictive installation policies especially in Edu/bluechip IE you can do whatever the fuck you want in the sandbox that is your web browser but if you want to install some software you have to wait 4 weeks for approval then another 4 weeks to get approval for each update.

Also security updates/patches for native applications can be really shitty especially on Microsoft inflicted devices… For example, if you want to update Inkscape on Windows you have to do a whole download/install process. This can lead to security related issues…
