I don't see that happening. The US puts large tariffs on imported cars to stifle competition. That's why if you look at Japanese cars in Japan or German cars in Germany they're often much cheaper and more powerful than their American counterparts.
Almost every car company does something similar and has as long as they've had on board computers.
VW/Audi/Porche are all the same company and generally share the same electronics. A lot of gauges and features are considered "premium" so they just disable them for VW branded vehicles. There's also regional feature lockouts; IIRC North American VW's can't have their fog-lights and headlights on at the same time but you can enable it through VAGCOM.
Something like 40% of Canadians live below the 45th parallel. Journey sucks at geography, south Detroit would be Windsor Canada.
Its probably worth noting that Europeans get more powerful cars than we do here in the US. I drive a 02 Golf TDI and it was only available as a 1.9L 90hp front wheel drive. The base model in Europe has a bigger turbo and offers 4wd versions.
LineageOS and Grpahene OS exist for some androids. Lineage can be made very private and Graphene is the best for privacy out of the box.
There's another launcher that I'm forgetting the name of that will launch Epic and GoG games. Following that proton guide should make NTFS (windows) drives usable for anything in Linux though. I can boot games downloaded from "alternate sites" if I add them to steam as "non steam games" regardless of how the drive is mounted.
Its just a continued effort to obfuscate modern tech. They discontinued the program then got a rich rube (Tom DeLonge) to foot the bill.
The F-22 raptor was developed to be the most advanced stealth fighter known to man. Its only combat mission it will ever fly was against a balloon, and it missed the first shot.
Seems to me that the US has some kind of new tech that they just don't want to share so they're going hard with this new disclosure movement. Probably something like an unmanned version of the AEREON 26 hybrid airship. Essentially half-blimp half-jet, its close to neutrally buoyant so it could "tumble" through the air like what we've seen in the tic-tac video released by the Navy.
If you use this guide to mount the Windows drives you can run it and Linux side by side. It works just as good as Windows these days for 90% of games. You can add games downloaded from unofficial sites to Steam as a "Non-steam game" and it works. Installing Nvidia drivers on Mint is easier than Windows, there's a built in utility.
The US has a blend of public and private infrastructure. Cities like Chicago sold the rights to their parking to private companies. Red light and speeding cameras are also privatized. Some states have sold their turnpike system to non public entities. Busses are unreliable in most metro areas because bus systems don't turn a profit.
Amtrak, America's only passenger train system, operates nearly entirely on private tracks. Its nearly always as expensive or more for a train ticket than it would be to just fly. At that the system is unreliable with trains constantly having to wait hours for freight trains to pass because they have the right of way on private tracks.
Nearly all utilities (power, water, gas) are ran by for profit companies.
Americas "social safety net" reads like a punishment most of the time. Seniors living on social security eat cat food to get by. Politicians want work requirements on food assistance. Homelessness is at epidemic levels, in a more liberal area there are some depression era hoovervilles built. Conservative areas just buy bus tickets to the liberal areas.
The song’s lyrics include the lines: “Cuss out a cop, spit in his face / Stomp on the flag and light it up / Yeah, you think you’re tough / Well, try that in a small town / See how far you make it down the road / Around here, we take care of our own.”
Later, Aldean alludes to a conspiracy theory that the US government intends to round up its citizens: “Got a gun that my granddad gave me / They say one day they’re gonna round up / Well, that shit might fly in the city, good luck.”
Who does he think does the rounding up?
I have a 2001 VW TDi, the radio is a standard Double Din so I just replaced it with a touchscreen bluetooth receiver for around $150.
Fascism as defined by Merriam-Webster says
A political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
The emphasis on race and economic / social regimentation are the major break from the left.
What would cause a person to go out that scantily clad is the real question? She must have been up to something.
HBO told the show runners(D&D) they could take as long as they wanted to finish the series. D&D had just landed jobs at the helm of a new Star Wars trilogy so they were eager to wrap up Thrones and start raking in that Disney cash. They made the last season shorter than other seasons, it sucked and they ended up losing the Star Wars deal.
Sure but that's not the point, film is wholly uncompressed. When theaters get 4k digital releases they get mailed a hard drive with the movie on it. "This" wouldn't fit on any card.
Probably not. 3 hours of uncompressed 1080p video is around 2tb. The film is closer to 16k which is 64 times more pixels than 1080p. This ain't your web rip off pirate bay.
Emphasis on "you've encrypted." If you don't have the keys its not safe. Imessage has great encryption but Apple will just hand over the keys if asked so its useless.
5.1 sound on Linux Mint
How do I map my motherboard audio ports to all be 5.1 line-out? I’m trying to fully make the switch from Windows to Linux on my gaming desktop. I’ve messed around with it on my laptop for quite a while.
One of the main things holding me back is configuring the 3.5 audio ports on my motherboard. I have 5.1 surround speakers with 3 3.5mm jacks for center/sub, front and rear speakers. The jacks it uses by default are line-in, line-out and mic. In Widows it automatically detects and changes the ports to all be the correct line-in ports, formally I could use the realtek panel to map them manually. I can’t seem to find any option in Mint to do that.
