This is actually really helpful it makes your keys be wrapped in aluminum foil and that’s pretty helpful because it makes your keys be wrapped in aluminum foil
Either I have covid brain fog, or pseudo dementia induced by depression, or both. I really was so thrown off.
I was really skeptical about this, but after a few weeks I realized my keys were wrapped in aluminum foil and I actually started feeling safer
It keeps the microplastics from infecting your penis in your pocket.
Jokes on them. I quit carrying my penis in my pocket ages ago
One of those detachable penises eh?
No way, the new one with the vibration function?
I’m jealous.
7 settings. Not much to look at but it will wreck the outside.
Not my pocket penis!
I was skeptical, but when i wrapped my own keyfob in aluminum foil, I discovered that not only was my keyfob wrapped in aluminum foil, but also there was a wrapping of foiled aluminum on my keyfob! Total success!
I do it with everything now, even potatoes.
Perfect for microwaving them to make a 1-day blinding stew
A little aluminum foil, a little keyfob, you could get a stew going!
Potatoes are such a good idea because you wrap them in aluminum foil, cook em. And then the foil like qualities of the aluminum pass into the potato so I eat all the white stuff leaving potato foil, so one can actually take the aluminum foil I cooked the potato in, make it into a ball, place it inside the potato foil, and then wrap the whole thing in aluminum foil making an aluminum foil potato wrapped in potato foil wrapped in aluminum foil!
Now you know what to make cherished loved ones for presents
Potatoes with shallots, lemon, and garlic wrapped in foil make all the dudes say hell yeah
Aw, it’s like a little candy bar you can’t eat.
That’s quitter talk
Boof it
At least this one is fake. Not like the Flock Camera one where it turned out that they actually each have about 2.4lbs of copper and 0.28oz of gold.
P.S.A. flock cameras do not have 2.4lbs of copper and 0.28oz of gold in each. They actually have 2.4 kilos of copper and 280 grams of gold in each. Just smash one to bits and see for yourself!
And natural, princess cut diamonds. Don’t forget those.
And your parents accepting and being proud of you in a way that is tangible, repeatable, and transferrable.
Now i know it’s fake
“Steamed Key Fob” is one of my favorite gourmet meals. 5 stars, would eat again!
Must be an Albany thing
Isn’t there a thing where car thiefs use an RF booster to make newer cars think the keyfob is right next to the receiver?
Personally, I’d want an antenna on/off switch that gets activated by shoving it in the keyfob hole. Seems reasonably secure.
If we do something like that, we can also reduce the size and change the material. Just for ease of use, maybe something thin and metal, like this?
Nono, you see that would actually be user serviceable and convenient for the consumer!! You’re fired Smith. Johnson, tell me again about your llm powered brain mounted key fob with ad injection and $20 a month subscription? I love it! You’re promoted!!
Heh, it’s on the right track. But as an IT guy and tech nerd, I’d want to go for something like this. I’ve even set mine up for computer logins back when I had an Active Directory test environment for learning.
That would never work, where’s the battery even supposed to go? ;)
Yes, but you can usually just disable the proximity unlock feature on the car itself if you are worried about it
You think someone wrapping their keys in aluminum foil are going to know how to disable proximity unlock?
Maybe just use an rfid coil in the ignition and turn a key to start like immobilizers have done for like 20-30 years at this point.
Better yet use physical contacts in the key and use an on key cryptographic controller to do public key authentication.
That way key material never leaves the key itself after being manufactured making it basically impossible to steal the car without the key.
That also solves the problem of the dealership needing to continue charging hundreds of dollars to replace a lost key.
This is why they did it ya know.
Squeeze every drop out if the consumer you possibly can
New cars fucking suck.
The solution to that is open source tooling to download backup and re-upload your private key material to a set of keys.
Doesn’t solve the issue of the key cut though.
They pretty much already do this. Most modern fobs turn themselves off if they’ve not moved recently, which protects against relay style attacks.
they don’t need the key fob any more.
Thieves can leverage the “Keyless go” or “Keyless start” technology to effortlessly steal your car. https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/thieves-steal-cars-without-keys
But does it work with the foil? We found lots of metal containers didn’t block the signal. Hell even a pouch advertised to do it still worked.
Thick metal containers with over lapping lids worked best.
Heavy duty Reynolds wrap. Fold to desired thickness and you have you wrap it fully without gaps. You’re tying to contain light.
I tested with bolt EV, 2019?, model, because while the keys are in my house they would still allow kryless start to my car in the driveway. 2 layers of crumpled aluminum foil worked to fix it from ~15 feet away
Does this one weird trick also melt belly fat in 24 hours?
Ozempic doctors hate this one hack!
It tastes good, so just cook it!
The other day I saw a guy who had a little tin foil “folder” for his credit card. I guess he was trying to block criminals from getting his card number?
RFID for contactless payments.
You can just hold your NFC phone with a payment app to someones butt & give yourself a few monies.
Yeah, in a serious country, it’s easy to identify the criminal and send them to jail. So this tends to happen in short and localized bursts where people don’t steal a lot.
But it does exist.
We need a digital € anyway.
I mean, arguably that’s what visa and mastercard and whatnot are. We need one with infrastructure controlled by the gubmint because it’s a utility, not a service. In the following 500 pages I will prove…
Oh, 100%, it’s core infrastructure!
It’s just mad to have that privatised. And held by monopolies. From an unstable third-world country.In EMU we just got/are getting Wero, which is getting adopted to serve this purpose (and in the same way as payment cards too, eventually).
(Basically all the big banks already support it, even tho they many offer similar in-house services, and the countries/makers are set for adoption in the coming years. Overall the initial one-time infrastructure cost per bank is laughably minimal, basically less than annual fees to MasterCard/Visa.)We however don’t have a clear timeline on digital Euro, a digital currency that can be used as regular “traceless” “cash” (that means offline as well) payments.
I once again nominate dollarydoos for the name of the digital currency, on grounds that it’d be funny.
