A lot of independent mechanics will use the manufacturer scan tool and service applications or use a 3rd party scan tool/applications that is licensed through the manufacturer and still uploads the data.

It gets worse, Auto makers are now building cars with options in them that require an online subscription and disabling access for more than x time will shut off the option(Tesla, BMW, and others do this now). There is talk about putting the car in “Limp home” mode if access is cut (Car will only have 35mph max speed and limited functions, no HVAC, no Radio, etc.)
😂 Jammers might work, but then you run amuck of the FCC, in the US anyway not sure what other countries feel about jammers.
I know someone who is in engineering at one of the big Auto makers, we where discussing this issue and the person told me that even if you remove the SIM (disable cellular internet) The dealer we still upload all the data from the “black box” to the auto maker when they connect to OBD / CAN diagnostic port in your car during service. The manufacturer’s service software just does that now the tech does not even have to initiate it. Also some dealers can automatically connect using RF to your car as soon as you enter their lot, This can be by Bluetooth, WiFi, and/or the CAN bus via the keyless entry module or TPM (Tire Pressure Monitor). There was an issue a several years ago with hackers gaining access to Jeeps while on the road via RF.

Yep, when they ship the AD, tracker, or popup off to another site the block will work but on the same domain it fails to block.

Microsoft’s Bing API services (the source of DuckDuckGo’s search data) went down at approx 3am ET and has not yet returned to service. Bing, DuckDuckGo, CoPilot, ChatGPT and more are unable to use the Bing services so in turn are also not working or not working fully.
I run a Unifi USG-1 router/gateway now but before that I got a used AC1000 router from the thrift store for $5 and loaded OpenWRT on that. I eventually got an Aris modem to replace the Comcrap Gateway because it was messing with the DNS traffic, even when piHole was set as DNS for every machine. So if I were you I would go look at the OpenWRT list of units that will accept their firmware. Pay attention to the hardware revision as well as the model number, it matters.

Then head over to a local thrift store or two and see if you can find any for cheep.
Will the work in the US, we have split phase 120v/240v power to homes, so each CT transformer will be on a 120v circuit. i.e. Can the yaml file be set to calculate using 120v rather than 230v?

Nice.
Nice try, scammer.
Update: It seems to have been a browser issue. After waiting 20min or so and clearing the cache then restarting the browser I was able to post without the issue.
Yes, I am getting that issue as well. That seems to happen on anything that causes a page refreash on lemmy.ml
looks like the first line says that you got banned and gives a reason, (note that I don’t know anything about you or that community, just pointing out what I saw in the list, nothing more)
