Interesting, I have those on my car and I actively avoid using them.

It can't cope with anything more than a simple scenario (dim around car in front, deal with on coming car in other lane). If you also have pedestrians and vehicles on side junctions, then you burn their eyes.

So, I'd assumed it was a US feature (straight, wide roads) brought over here

Ah, ok, got a little confused... GeoClue TZ is an improvement on GeoClue

I didn't even know this was a thing, I just dealt with this manually - now feeling a little silly.

I can confirm that moving the disks to a very similar device will work.

We recovered “enough” data from what disks remained of a Dell server that was dropped (PSU side down) from a crane. The server was destroyed, most of the disks had moved further inside the disk caddy which protected them a little more.

It was fun to struggle with that one for ~1 week

And the noise from the drives...

I have rooftop solar, but only for the house because I can't reach my car to charge it in the street.

The car sits outside for days (I work from home), so in my case this would be great.

This is the 1st I've seen of this car, so haven't read any other details, but I'd be surprised if external charging wasn't possible.

I don't have any evidence to backup my statement, but for my usecase (Linux booting troubleshooting toolkit) Kingston sticks last a fair while (~10 years), but Sandisk fail sooner (<5years?)

The main thing I've noticed for all brands: there's no warning before failure. They're like nicad batteries... all good, then one day - completely dead. So never keep any data on them that you can't lose.

Good point about the default video source. I had to use “hotel mode” on 1 TV to get that to work... I'll check what this one does

thanks

Wha?! I didn't know this was happening... Damn, that was my solution to multiple applications

A single, decent, maintained one for LVM.

Redhat had a couple of goes at this and they suck ass big time and rely on KDE (so no good for any other DE / WM). I'm not sure anything really works, so I'll say: none exist.

Just a +1 for Open Camera - it's a great bit of software.
