MONSTA
If the data isn’t being paid for anymore, they can’t connect to anything at all. Is T-Mobile or Verizon or whoever expected to foot the bill ten years down for no reason? There may be some definitions of connecting I’m missing, but I reasoned a data connection over some sort of cellular network.
But then, if it’s some hidden proprietary magic on some unused bands, who knows?
My mom won’t stop continually trying to cure her type 1 diabetes with every conceivable bullshit product known to mankind, assured by God and stubbornness that it can be done. Most of it, she hides from her doctor.
This week it’s mushroom coffee. Last month it was CBD pills. Usually always from Facebook ads. I give her a lecture every time. She ignores it every time. It’s basically all she spends he money on and you can’t tell her not to. Sometimes it isn’t even an online product and I’ll find every salt container in the trash can.
we don’t eat salt anymore, it’s the problem
Then I have to wrestle all of it back out, explain the history of cooking from 2000 years to now and why is important then ask who on earth told her that.
Every. Single. Week and she falls for it every single time. Ugh.
Oddly enough, the cars will be more secure used since all of those online features will be defunct and abandoned for newer, more “advanced” shitware in ten years.
Continuing the tradition that buying used is always a good idea. Thank you, auto industry.
Then your plan is kinda flawed from the start, eh?
They’ll strap him to a chair and sacrifice 1000 2fort snipers a day to keep him alive.
GoG is just as well. Epic, Ubishit, EA.
Take a look at all of them and take the best choice for yourself. No monopoly, here. Steam isn’t paying EA and Ubisoft to suck. They’d suck if Valve existed or not.
Steam isn’t the only choice for a gamer any more than a cheap Civic is the only choice for a poor college freshman.
He could do a lot worse.
that’s satire, right?.. right, guys?
Bro, look, there’s an open wifi network here now. Signal kinda sucks out here. Imma try it.
…it’s loading a login screen
they want my employee number
close it and never think about using it again
Just make the exact same game… with better graphics and a new plot
It works for Capcom and Nintendo just fine. Nintendo even skips making a new plot.
They’re 100% right. I don’t expect Bethesda to make anything good.
They tried to pretend Lemmy was just software and call “their platform” Haxbear, in some sad attempt to culture-roll Lemmy itself.
Not a really square plan when 90% of the user base are leftist socialist code-monkies.
They should rename Haxbear to “Rekt Center”.
he saw that I was serious
“Oh fuck, you’re serious, just look at it!”
I imagine they’re still searching for the network despite not being able to reach anything, so maybe a local hack would be possible near the vehicle, but remotely? Idk.
My personal strategy to avoid this situation is to just not buy a car with those “features”. If I can’t know before I buy it, then I won’t bother to care to know. Keep your secrets, I’ll keep my $.
At some level, I’d put the blame of some of this on the consumer.
Something being a scam on some level should be the inherent suspicion of basically everything you intend to purchase. The chances a product is straightforward and trustworthy seem to be far less likely these days than the opposite.
