Tech bros love to boast about moving fast and breaking things, so it comes as some relief to find an instance where they've moved at a more stately 17 knots and yet still utterly fucked it.
In this case the "it" being carpool vehicles. Programmed to treat movement without the engine being switched on as either theft or witchcraft, they instantly bricked themselves in response.
What happened when these vehicles travelled by ferry was perhaps predictable...

So pointing slightly away from us here on lil'ol planet earth...
Do I really want to know what a direct assault would look like??
Friend was looking into how to buy someone in the US a gift from Best Buy while outside the US and we've discovered one of the most cursed things ever committed to HTML: if you want to pay from outside the US then you have to enter an exact specific real address in Delaware as your billing address. This screams "the backend people refused our feature request, saying it would take the blood of fifty sinless lambs at least, and this was the only way we could work around them"

Darn.
I just spent a while catching up with my timeline (went from about 1.5 days behind to only about 4 hours behind) and just caught up with the part where people were talking about the aurora.
Ooh, I thought, I'm only a few hours behind, I could go and look. But no. It's nearly 5am and there's enough daylight that I couldn't see a faint aurora even if it's still happening (which I've no idea whether it is or not). Oh well.
If you oppose DRM, I encourage you to explore what's been made officially available without it! Pay for it if you can! Share it with your friends.
Broaden your entertainment horizons! How about make your own?
There's *plenty* to choose from!
Please don't suggest "piracy": I'm not opposing it but as political action it backfires...
If ars Paradoxica can become as much of a must-hear as Back to the Future is a must see, that'd undermine Hollywood's narrative of why they need DRM!
In Yellowstone National Park, Smokey, Phelan and Narf, park their car, super excited. They're watching wild bisons from far away for very first time through a spotting spot. It's a rare sight! The friends can't believe their luck! Surrounded by open fields, they share this special moment.

It's so far the largest watercolor canvas piece I've done. A 30 x 45 cm (12 x 18 inches) canvas.
I recorded the process time-lapse with the phone, if you want to see it, it's on the first comment of this submission on my Telegram channel: https://t.me/panda_paco
