I mean it’s a complicated question, largely due to factors that are outside of your control (weather). You just make your best guess.

Yes, SteamOS for ARM will just be a good first step to getting it on other devices like ARM handhelds.

Interlocks are for people who have had a DUI

Yes I am actually aware, thanks.

ankle monitors should not be able to be accessed remotely.

Ankle monitors monitor location. Interlock devices monitor intoxication levels, and locally send a signal to the vehicle about whether it’s ok to drive. The difference should be obvious.

Of course I am?

I hope?

Still no SteamOS for ARM 😞

I don’t understand what your point is. No one is saying it’s going to happen tomorrow. The point is that fines themselves aren’t the problem. The problem is corruption and cronyism. Fines are totally effective when implemented properly.

If it knows it’s been tampered with, it doesn’t need to phone home, it can be disabled locally…

If you want to circumvent it, it’s as simple as disconnecting it. Source: I’ve done it (professionally)

Since disabling the vehicle remotely is kinda the express intention of this device

Uhhh nope, there’s no reason for a remote connection.

Nothing but lip service. MS did not “analyze your feedback” because it was never about what you wanted, they analyzed their income (most likely from enterprise customers) and realized they may have boiled the frog too quickly. Windows will never improve because they do not want it to improve, they want it to make as much money as humanly possible, and they will eternally push that envelope to find out just how much bullshit their customers will tolerate.

Believe it or not, everyone who you disagree with or misunderstand is not “trolling”.

There is no reason they couldn’t assess fines a different way…

Certainly the fines were sufficiently sized in the 90s era when they dropped the hammer on Microsoft.

“Wake me” when anything at all happens…? The point is, they have the power.

Removed by mod

Just because they’re currently assessed that way doesn’t mean they can’t be assessed a different way…

Except you still don’t have a mouse

…not assessed what way?

Not necessarily, the fine just needs to be a sufficient size.

🤣

I just…don’t understand why anyone would buy this. Like, if you need it to be portable, you’re going to need a display and a mouse/trackpad, so just get a laptop. If you don’t need it to be portable, then why wouldn’t you just use a desktop machine? If the keyboard fails then you have to throw away the entire machine.
