Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop
(tech.slashdot.org)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I was looking for a car a few months ago and was looking at newer models, used, but mostly less than a decade old. Then I started reading about all the tracking and such.
I gave in to my inner teenager and bought a 2001 Porsche 911.
The entertainment center can connect via Bluetooth but there's no Android Auto, no navigation. It has Sirius XM but I never had a subscription to it and never will.
I might add a backup camera but that's it. My phone is more than enough tracking, even with as much of it shut off as possible.
This is the way.
Add in a magnetic charger phone mount and you're golden in my opinion.
A previous owner mounted one where the cigarette lighter was. I'm going to replace it soon since it doesn't really fit - I can't charge my phone in the holder.
Maybe I'll finally learn FreeCAD and print my own.
If you do want to learn a guy on YouTube by the name of mangojelly has been extremely inciteful for me
Damn, sweet ride dude! Congrats!
Thanks! The next car on the list was a 2004 Honda Civic Si hatchback manual.
I honestly would have been happy with either car. Having so much fun with the Porsche though.
This is the way.
Yeah. Sometimes my bank account gets sad but I don't.
Yeah, but other than a hybrid, fuel efficiency plateaued at some point before bells and whistles started being added to a surveillance system.
