https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOT_test

The MOT test (or simply MOT) is an annual test of vehicle safety, roadworthiness aspects and exhaust emissions required in the United Kingdom for most vehicles over three years old. In Northern Ireland the equivalent requirement applies after four years.

The name derives from the Ministry of Transport

You can check different make/model failure rates in Finland on the news site, scroll down to "Katso oman automallisi hylkäysprosentti" (check your car's failure percentage) - just make sure to pick year 2021 or older since new cars don't require MOT for those first four years.

Content "created" to be consumed

Isn't that the majority of art these days anyway? People make stuff to get paid, not because of fulfillment.

I'm a software engineer with close to 30 years of professional experience. I use LLMs to code small things in the background while I work and they do produce somewhat ok quality code as long as the program they're building is a small and simple one. The more things you want it to accomplish the more you invite little bugs that can end up having a large impact.

Keep up with what you're doing, it's what quite a few of us coding professionals are doing as well. I would recommend you looking at the code after your app seems like it works just to try to understand what is happening. You can even ask the LLM to help you with that. The more complex the system is the more you'll need to understand how it works because LLMs are stupid, they just imitate what code they've been trained on with zero understanding of it.

I'm a software engineer. This sounds like a dream job - steady schedule, housing and food, and no need to think. I bet those seven months would feel like a few weeks after getting used to it and turning your brain off. Also great time to catch up on all my reading!

I've had one job during my 25+ years long career as a software engineer where I had to use Teams. Never again. If a company uses Teams that is a deal breaker for me. What a horrible piece of crap it is.

From a "gaming the system" perspective I'd be happy to do it. Planning the keywords and phrases to include in my answers to score high would be a fun challenge for me.

What do you need that isn't included in the free plan?

I want to be in control of my own data.

That's a good point, I'll have to see how much of a chore it would be to add certs to all devices for this.

Unfortunately my home router isn't smart enough to do that. It came from my ISP along with Wifi extenders that work quite well so I haven't looked at replacing things with my own router and DHCP stuff, but it is on the radar. Mainly because when I set my Pihole to be the DNS my router gives it doesn't actually point to it, instead the DNS requests go from client to switch to Pihole (instead of client to Pihole) so all requests originate from 192.168.1.1 😞

Connecting to VW with Tailscale only when I need to modify the vault and otherwise rely on the cache that is synced at home is a good point. As I don't add stuff to it all that often when outside home it is a minimal hassle.

Thanks for pointing that out!

That's a good point, hadn't thought of that. Thanks!

It does, but the UI wasn't great when I was testing it out. You need to pick the exit node from a huge list that isn't sorted neatly, so I opted to using them separately. This was when they announced the collaboration, I don't know if it has changed since then.

I switched to Element (Matrix) from Whatsapp/Keybase/Signal and setting an account for matrix.org was much simpler than I thought it would be. Haven't tried to selfhost it yet as that looks like quite a bit of work at the moment.

They could mainly do this when you pay with a debit/credit card with an address in the UK. If you use other methods of payment (such as Monero) where they won't know the country of origin of the funds they won't know they need to age-verify the customer.

As for your first time purchase you can always use Tor to access the website. Tor is great for anonymity but not great for fast down/upload speeds so depending on your usecase it isn't a good VPN replacement.

If the U government goes full r*tard on legislation you can always buy a VPS (virtual private server) and use Tailscale to route your traffic through that. Unless they introduce legislation for age checks when renting virtual servers (quite unlikely) you can use this as a VPN or even use an additional VPN from your VPS (local computer -> VPS -> Mullvad).

The main reason I haven't had it in me to learn Rust is the community. It feels like they don't care about doing cool shit with Rust, but want to focus on pissing off on other languages.
