I am torn on this issue. On one hand I don't want to waste my time commuting nor I don't want to sit in open-space office where everyone screaming over everyone and I can't concentrate On the other hand I need that physical s

This is really dumb on many levels. They can pull nights and weekends when project needs to be done. But they need to pay for it and it is mentally impossible to do it consistently for weeks or even months. After some time you will just bur

That's not an issue. Parents are installing much worse things to monitor every tap on a display in life of their children.

Used BEVs with depleted battery which might not be produced anymore. Toyota is fully aware that BEV does not have longevity, which is actual core of their brand and that's main reason why they are tiptoeing around BEV

Find a workshop manual for your car and it will be drawn inside it. Because car is more-less a faraday cage, there are coax cables [0] going from ECUs to antennas. Some ECUs, like eCall have also backup GSM antenna integrated, but you will

After everything went so smoothly, it will be micrometeorites which will grind the whole mission into a dust. That's sad and also shows why Earth bound observatories are still irreplicable and can't be just swapped for space teles
