I’m probably just an AI pretending to be human.
Into wandering abandoned places, tinkering with technology, and authoring things for fun and profit.

I still use Microsoft at my day job, but MY tech refresh was Linux-based because privacy is important to my clients. Both Microsoft and Apple are bad at consumer / small business privacy so I moved to a platform that is not in the business of turning my data into marketing profiles.
Always one that comes in hot, I swear.
I do wish Linux was friendlier for the average person. I use it and I recommend it (via PopOS) to some people but other folk would have a heck of a time with maintaining it.
And this is one of many reasons I’m glad I dumped Microsoft (and Apple, actually) when I did my last tech refresh.
I can’t, but worrying about hidden LTE chips is s path that leads to madness. Unless I ditch all tech, there’s no way to be sure.
For the data pull, yeah. I tend to avoid dealers though so I’m not sure that there is much incentive for my mom & pop service station to monetize my data.
I don’t believe my car is connected to the internet, thankfully, but I dislike the idea that the data may be stored somewhere in the system. Any idea whether there’s a hack to access and remove the data yet?
Currently, nothing is shared through the car (audio only, enjoy my boring music habits) but that was not always the case.
