  1. Looking at getting an impact wrench

    And Jeeps are just tall Fiats.

    You still have never told us how a chip or a key or a cell connection will help "them" do a thing.

    I'm paying attention quite well. You still have never told us how a chip or a key or a cell connection will help "them" do a thing. But, I'm one of them. Let's push the button. Now.
  4. How long did it take for you to find these?

    I’ve never read anything from Tesla and I hate hearing musk talk. I prefer reality for my decisions. After 8k miles I know when I can totally trust it, and when not. Experience is surprising and not really what I expected.

    Yes, if you move the wheel at all, autopilot is off instantly. If you push throttle you get throttle just like adaptive, and if you brake it drops all of them. If you turn the wheel it will still leave intelligent cruise on (which is smarter than the adaptive in the Jeep). So you have...
  6. How long did it take for you to find these?

    "When something fails something fails." Yes, that is obvious. Like the 19,936 human failures EVERY DAY that cause collisions. The failure rate of sensors and computers is a ridiculously tiny fraction of that.
  7. How long did it take for you to find these?

    All of those "take over" things apply to self driving also. I know that the computer drives better than any human including me, so it only took a few weeks to get over the feeling of panic.
  8. How long did it take for you to find these?

    All kinds of things. Work, reading, or just watching the road and enjoying the drive a lot more.

    True, I guess I want both. I just don't want the skeuomorphs to over-ride giving me the best design and features TODAY. Too many times, that happens. We appease morons instead of leaving them outside to be eaten by cheetahs.

    All modern rotary keys are still fake, they are a pushbutton equivalent inside and electrically. These skeuomorphic devices are kept around for consumer acceptance and fooling people.

    I used to deploy and consult on PM software for Fortune 1000 and some smaller mid-size companies. Confidentiality? Coordinated efforts? Knowing that department B is doing X on Y date? Yeah no.

    You do. Who do you think is getting what data exactly over your INACTIVE cellular device?

    You should have your uncle show you. I added one for a friend who didn't have it stock. Remove the dome light trim, and I think the light maybe. Remove or raise the hardtop. The antenna is there, IIRC held by just one screw. Unplug and remove. You don't lose the other antennas as they are...

    I'm always sorry for customers who get someone who is unnecessarily and uselessly paranoid. As a network and security engineer for over 30 years, I've seen what it does to people who are forced to do inane things and shorted on features for reasons that have no benefit.

    All accurate, and most "keys" are really not really a switch. The JK with a key is still RFID and the turn of the key simply asks the computer to start it, EXACTLY like a pushbutton. People are just clueless (which is not a judgement until they start making shit up) about how things work and...
