Assuming the head unit isn't DRM locked to a specific VIN, etc. That's then extra cost to chase that rabbit trail.

Many cars have both daytime running lights and fog lights in the same enclosure. And depending on settings (auto vs manual, etc), the DRLs might stay on at night. And cars vary a lot in configuration. It would take a lot for the police to

That's interesting, and looking at per-capita use graphs over the years...seems predictable. Are there any major sectors of "use" that would shift if electricity were cheap enough? Like, for example...in the UK, is any sign

It's some percentage of their pay, depending on how long they were in. There's a few different plans, but roughly...50% if you're in 20 years, 75% at 30 years, etc. Also, only a percentage of the base pay. Not of the housi

There's probably more than one reason it's faster. For example, tar ignores extended file attributes by default. Cp -r would have to check them for every file.

There's some slight overlap for the Max 7. - the average 737 MAX 7 aircraft would typically carry between 138 and 153 passengers, range 3,850nm. - Embraer 195-E2 carries between 120 and 146 passengers, range 2600nm
