i have done a thing, lads: i've decided to make a shim to turn Forza Dash telemetry data into Volkswagen PQ35 #canbus traffic and so now, the the software gauge cluster I wrote some years ago is able to display rudimentary in-game driving data
conversely, i could also plug this into my MkV R32 and ruin its value on the market by running up the odometer without actually starting up the car. if i wanted to, y'know. but i don't. but i could.
Thermostat #shitjob complete. German car designers have been cursed to serve eternity in Avernus as a Lemure, my hand is sore and the dog learnt some new swearwords. Fresh pink soup filled in!
Engine comes back up to normal working temperature and nothing else got broken in the process.
Something to be said for not buying the biggest engine option in any given car model. Smaller engine = more space to work!
Danish union joins strike action against Tesla by Swedish workers
The Danish union 3F Transport, responding to a request from IF Metall, is joining the action in a “sympathy strike” aimed at preventing dock workers and drivers from receiving and transporting Tesla cars going to Sweden.
PensionDanmark, one of Denmark's largest pension funds will sell its holdings in Tesla over the U.S. auto company's refusal to enter into agreements with labour unions.
The decision is part of a growing Nordic movement to force Tesla to sign collective bargaining agreements with Swedish mechanics, who have been on strike since October.
We believe that being able to easily iterate and test in a real environment is the key to great software. A lack of access to physical devices makes this too difficult for automotive software. We want to change that!
Je voudrais aussi féliciter la personne qui a imaginé ces feux arrières chez #VW, c'est carrément des MATRICES LED donc le feu change de motif quand on freine. Je trouve ça très cool.
Même si personnellement j'aurais utilisé l'horizontale pour signaler l'arrêt, et pas l'inverse. Histoire d'être cohérent avec les panneaux de douane, de sens interdit, et les feux de tramway.
