I have a cheap Bluetooth dongle with an app and a plug-in handheld device. Both scanners read all my cars except one each, but each device doesn't read a different car, so I'm covered.

I prefer the Bluetooth dongle. It's more modern, but the setup/pairing sucked for me. The handheld device either works right away, or it doesn't.

While hating ICE as much as the next commenter... What if we did?

Seriously, bringing the state into the mix could establish proper paper trails, log activity, ensure access to legal representation, verify warrants, and uphold laws so frequently violated by Trump's Gestapo.

Sort of a malicious compliance thing if the Fed is twisting your arm.

Well, only half voted for it. But the diplomatic, nonviolent half are somehow domestic terrorists now so...

Haha! Wow good catch. I even looked it up to make sure I spelled it right. Dang.

Bingo. I had interviews with Apple and Google with 2 relevant collage degrees. They offered $18/hour. I quit a $25/hour job to get through college.

Too bad back then. I was an Apple fanatic back in the day and their next ad campaign was exactly my skillset. The whole experience really soured the company for me and I never bought another product from them again.

What. The. Fuck.

Can we secede already?

Edit: Fixed embarrassing typo

Are you confusing a signal jammer or an actual pulse? I'm no expert by any means, but the tech you'd have to lug around makes it pretty impractical.

Plus, there that whole pacemaker thingy, ya know? A pretty bad idea overall.

Hey Disney/ABC, capitulation hasn't worked. What's your next move?

"'Mislead' the American public" is all it takes to get cancelled now? Great! Let's run down the list of "alternative fact", MAHA, QAnom, pizza gate, election deniers, etc and cancel their shows, social profiles, and various platforms.

I still get giddy when one of those drives by. I wanted one so bad back then.

Probably best I didn't though. Post-pandemic employment hasn't been kind to me.

Someone mark this NSFW because that's some serious balls. My hat off to you, sir.

... desperately want any kind of fame

I don't really agree. In neither case did the perpetrator seek attention, rather the event itself was spotlighted by the news cycle.

I feel the cases cited were retaliations to perceived wrongs undermining our rights; a last ditch effort from abuses or failures our government should protect us from.

First of all, thanks mods for your work. I know spam sucks and ain't easy.

I'm new to this lemmy thing, but there seem to be a few bots out there that may be able to help or ban spammers.

Could we maybe look into that and automatically suspend/ban posts that link to amazon? That would seen to put an obstical in this kickback scam going on.

Just an idea.

1971 Toyota Celica (lemmy.ssba.com)

So we're posting Celicas now?

This is a project car I've been working on off and on for a while. Yup, there is still much to do (mostly cosmetic) but it drove for the first time since I totally rebuilt the engine...

... until the heater core hose burst and sprayed my leg with hot antifreeze.

It's been a really fun project and hitting this milestone feels great!
