Basically every new vehicle made in the last 5 years has connected features. That's why I said "not buy a vehicle" I was using hyperbole to point out that the options are limited if you want a new vehicle without connected features. Options are even slimmer if you have specific requirements for a vehicle outside of basic transportation.

Is the Linux disk still visible in your UEFI firmware?

What's the alternative? Not buying a vehicle? If I wasn't in the US and actually had good public transportation available to me I certainly would forego vehicle ownership. As it stands, it is frustrating to think I will one day lose the remote start feature, but it's not a deal breaker.

My new vehicle has remote start, but only via the app. It's a useful feature but frustrating that my trim level doesn't also have it available via the keyfob. Once the manufacturer ends support for my vehicle I will lose the feature out-right.

Thanks!!

Haha, I feel that switch to LTS only releases. I was upgrading to every release in the beginning as well but it started to get old real fast. I run Mint nowdays. In the early days I loved testing new distros and tweaking around with my system, but after over a decade working in tech the last thing I want to do in my free time is have to fix my own computer.

How can they claim destruction of evidence if they don't know the phone actually contained any evidence?

I was taught the same.

But then you have to live in satan's armpit...

Boxxy!! I named my new vehicle after her!

I've been really enjoying my Time 2. It's nice to have a smartwatch that I don't have to constantly think about the battery life on. Literally been getting 2.5 - 3 WEEKS per charge. It's certainly not for everyone though. It lacks the features of the more mainstream brands like voice calls and NFC payments. It does have a touch screen but none of the software really takes advantage of it yet. That said, my main use case for a smart watch is to simply display phone notifications on my wrist, sleep tracking, and alarms. (and telling the time, of course.) The Time 2 does all of these really well, no complaints!

11 is GOAT. We had an ice cream freezer in the lunch room of my elementary school and I would always get that one. Cost a whole $0.50!
