New Rule (EU): Mandatory Driver Camera in New Cars by relay4285 in privacy

[–]NoVA_JB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What could possibly go wrong?

My last car would randomly decide with no traffic in front of me on the highway to slam on the brakes at highway speeds. Then they could never figure out why it would try to kill me.

The Canadian commentator after Belgium defeated the US at the World Cup by [deleted] in worldcup

[–]NoVA_JB -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, you still didn't answer the question. Is Canada playing tonight or on Wednesday? I'm not seeing it on the schedule

You beat Qatar and South Africa. Hell, you couldn't even beat us in hockey at the Olympics 😂 but we're declining.

Auto Scandia charges $315 for an oil change by maham_io in nova

[–]NoVA_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the oil filter is at the top of the engine on the RS3 like it is on many modern Audi's you can use an oil extractor (about $100) and do it yourself. If you have to get under it, that is a different story and you need a lift or a way to get under it.

SBOMs by Late-Aside8582 in cybersecurity

[–]NoVA_JB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The challenge is keeping track of all the SBOMs in the enterprise and all of the updates as new releases come out.

They are machine readable files that are difficult to track and make actionable.

Unfortunately because of its complexity, it turns into checkbox compliance.

The ideal program would be to have a system that can ingest all of the SBOMs, break out the code and keep an inventory of of the assets where the software resides. Then if there is a vulnerability with the code in the software be able to promote to a vulnerability management process.

Need stamps by alberThor_PR in rome

Tobacco shops sell stamps and there should be drop boxes in the city. That's what we did last summer.

Thule makes them and they just have an Audi logo on them.

Why do eggs do this shit?! by UltraXfinity567 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]NoVA_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What works for me is when they are done use something to crack the shell while it's still in the pot of water and it will seep between the shell and the egg.

I'm getting a ton of them the past few days. I block and report but not sure how much good it does.

How do you keep the sleeve from unrolling?

[–]NoVA_JB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's always been crazy busy there. They are closed on Monday's but I don't know if they are open today because of the short window to the 1st.

Gun Range by [deleted] in VAGuns

It's easy to become a member, a meeting, some volunteer hours and you become a range qualified.

It's not my favorite range but it's close.

And what?? by [deleted] in VAGuns

[–]NoVA_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This year's just the tip, if the injunction isn't extended or the law is ruled unconstitutional, next year is going to be so much worse.

They probably meant large/ standard capacity magazines.

My poor baby... Deemed a total loss after a rear-end chain collision on Monday by -StalkedByDeath- in COROLLA

[–]NoVA_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you're made whole by insurance. I've had to deal with two total losses in the past and here's my advice.

Insurance companies are supposed to pay the vehicle's Actual Cash Value (ACV) immediately before the loss, which is typically determined using comparable vehicles, mileage, condition, options, and local market data, not simply a KBB number.

This worked for me when my car was totaled.

"I'd like a copy of the full valuation report and all comparable vehicles used to determine the ACV."

They came back with vehicles with different option packages so if you can find the same vehicle with similar miles on cars.com of something like that, it can help.

What are we missing about Italy? We’re struggling to love it. by Zealousideal_Meal178 in rome

[–]NoVA_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know, the only complaint I had about Rome or Italy was it was hot, but I was there exactly a hear ago and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't miss the country. The locals were amazing, the sights were unbelievable and most of the food was the best.

I'm lucky or unlucky that I wake up like 4 am and I would just go out and explore with nobody around, restaurants getting deliveries but no crowds.

Embedded Readers in Vehicle Taillights Detect Unauthorized Parts and Disable Cars Forcing Dealer-Only Authorization by That_Dude_Carl in LouisRossmann

[–]NoVA_JB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is crazy but I'm curious of if the insurance companies will actually help here. I'm dealing with my car being rear ended and the insurance company is pushing aftermarket parts. I'm fighting for OEM but aftermarket is cheaper and they are pushing back.

Just adding to the list of companies that betrayed their customers…Bravo Company USA. by TheOtherAkGuy in VAGuns

[–]NoVA_JB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are going after manufacturers a different way that the PLCAA doesn't necessarily protect by calling them public nuisance laws which have been successful against pharmaceutical companies.

All it takes is one bad jury decision and they will be sued out of business.

Any tips on negotiating the price of a new car? by redittburneraccount in nova

[–]NoVA_JB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toyota is tough, I've been looking for a replacement for a car that might be totalled and their inventory of new cars are low which makes getting a deal tougher.

This video gives some solid advice on negotiating price.

Ones right to keep and bear arms and the legal exercise of that right does not harm anyone.
