This actually does exist already[1]. They sell a ton of products with a user-specific QR code. Parents/caregivers/etc. can change the message that gets displayed when someone is scanned at any time. [1] https://www.qrco

If you're driving down the freeway, putting the gear selection lever to neutral would be a much better choice than killing the engine and taking out the key.

Using your Chromecast this way puts you at a disadvantage with many TVs. My TV only provides HDMI power when the input is selected (this may be per the spec) but that eliminates Chromecast's 'switch the input automatically'

It's the opposite, actually. It's illegal right now to fly any drone above 400 feet. Drones under 400 feet must be within line of sight of the operator. The FAA will now be forced to allow civilian drone flights, mostly for photography, law
