Your vacuum doesn't go under furniture more than likely so to clean under there you quit being a janitor to become a furniture mover?

I guess it's turtles all the way down.

That's not what I mean though. What I mean is, in the event that for whatever reason the signal to deactivate the electronic park brake cannot get where it needs to go using the scan tool, there has to be a way to do it manually.

Say your vehicle is in an accident. Say the electronic park brake wiring is in shreds. That brake caliper needs to come off. The body shop is going to require a way to remove it if the scan tool can't disengage it.

Say there's corrosion in the connector. Same same. Has to come off and be replaced. And so on.

So, there has to be a way to manually disengage the park brake. And I say that because otherwise techs wouldn't work on them. Time is money in the automotive service industry. That information will leak eventually. It's stupid to even intentionally try this.

The populace can't track police, but police can track the populace. Sounds like BS.

A fair assesment. Except that you have to (and should be) cleaning the upright vacuum as well. Vacuum fires are no joke.

Yeah. I've got an 870 that's still cleaning. It gets stuck under furniture and needs to be rescued at least once a week, and last week it lost its ~~ass~~ dustbin somehow mid clean, but it's still kicking.

I don't use my PS5 to surf the web. I know you can use it to watch movies and stuff, but I don't use it for that either.

At best, it depends on what kind of user most of the console owners are.

It might help you to know there's a possibly better community for tech support questions about Linux. Someone there may have the answer you're looking for.

I'm a Linux noob so I'm sorry I can't help more.

Yep. I have been suspended twice for fighting. In both cases the other person hit me first. The first time it happened I didn't even realize somebody had thrown a punch and had no time to even defend myself. The second time I did defend myself, but it literally involved pushing the person away.

In both cases the school administration did not care and my parents went up to the school to make complaints.

It's bullshit, but this is exactly the problem. Schools have zero tolerance policies to protect themselves rather than to protect students.

I honestly think this is because we gave up ergonomics in exchange for screen relestate. It's not super comfortable to hold a smart phone to your ear and if you hold it wrong you can block the mics. Bit of a pain in the ass.

I remember this. I didn't hate it (perhaps because I lived with headphones in whether I was listening to anything or not), in order to regulate and prevent sensory overload.

On the other hand, I also do remember and did hat that apps tried to replicate it in the 2000's and even the 2010's and that was during a time when I was in the military and my roommate/her husband used this feature.

I cannot tell you how many times I've been woken up because one or the other of them was using this "feature". I can tell you that they didn't stay my roommate for long as a result.

Sigh. This article is all over the place.

The headline suggests that payment processors/AI companies/retailers are fighting about the collection of shopper data.

AI obviously doesn't collect the kind of data that would be useful to the retailers or even the payment processors. So it does stand to reason that the retailers would be a little miffed about "agentic AI" insinuating itself as the middle man between them and shoppers, effectively cutting them off from that data flow.

But that's not actually what's happening. It seems like (potentially), the AI companies want to sell "agentic AI shopping" to the retailers and possibly payment processors? But these entities want information about the shoppers that the AI doesn't collect and the quibble is over whether the AI can be made to collect that data?
