IANAL, but in Australia, the Driver is responsible if any passengers are not wearing their seatbelt.

You’re thinking of a LandCruiser

Landrovers aren’t quite as amphibious.
3·3 months agoThe fansites and forums are the issue. The issues are the Retailers whose Content Management Systems are not respecting the embargo.
5 studs wide is always challenging. I’m attempting to do some Jimny’s that are Speed Champion scale. This has provided me a lot of inspiration.
Someone made a brick-built variant of this for a 48x48 baseplate using parts salvaged from the Starwars set 75334.
These sets were allegedly terrible and were being sold on clearance everywhere. They had some cool minifigs so people were offloading the bricks only on eBay for cents-in-the-dollar.
I now have two nice craterscapes for my Galaxy Explorer 10497.
Obligatory favourite brick; classic castle wall with cobbled window 4444p01.
Obligatory least-favourite brick; classic corner piece 4737. It was held by one stud top and bottoms and made for really unstable models.

They are technically legally asking permission through the EULA, but nobody reads these.
Apple do this differently, they require the user to opt in for each of their services, and except for a pitiful amount of storage, the user has to pay for a useful amount of storage. This makes the user the customer, instead of the product. They could make it easier to roll-your-own “cloud” storage by NAS, but I assume that it isn’t worth their effort.
This is one of the things I love about the Lemmy community. No one wants to argue, every one can be passionate about their opinions, but still respect other people’s passion.
I used Linux back in the 90s as my primary OS. They were simpler times. Since then I have used BeOS, various versions of Windows and (primarily) MacOS.
I am seriously thinking of going over to Linux as my primary OS because of all the TechBro “AI” bullshit that Microsoft, Adobe, Apple and Google are trying to ram down our throats.
The bottom has dropped out of the OEM software licence market. Microsoft have to find a different way of making money. Their loss-leading hardware sales have not borne fruit so they are getting desperate.
All they have left is services, which means that the only way the can actually make money is selling out their customers private information.
I love it that in TT Games Lego Jurassic Park, the superpower for Dr Ellie Sattler is that she doesn’t get disgusted with smelly obstacles.
That bloke purchasing the the iron looks familiar;

Some of the technic wing parts are weird to look at, and difficult to differentiate or even figure out which way up. It is a good thing that they are numbered, but even then…
There are a lot of Easter-eggs like that in the Icons sets. The Blacksmith and Soldiers in the Blacksmith Cottage 21325 are the same individuals as those in the 3in1 creator castle 31120 (except older). There is also a Couple in some of the City sets with baby who go camping with their son in the 3in1 Creator Caravan 31108.
I blame their mothers.
There is a difference between destroying looms, corrupting LLMs by feeding bad data and causing an uprising like the Butlerian Jihad of Dune or the Second Renaissance of The Matrix.
There are legitimate uses for vehicle telemetry being stored by the vehicle and uploaded to the manufacturer.
Identifying unexpected behaviour under certain driving conditions and being able to contact emergency services in an accident are two important examples. Remote diagnosis in the case of a breakdown is another.
None of these uses include selling the data to third parties or using the data to create a profile of the vehicle owner.
They “acquired” the concept from Elizabeth Magie, basically making an unlicensed version of The Landlords Game.
This would actually make sense if it was biopic about Elizabeth Magie.
