When they give you that QR code for the 2FA app, print it out and file it away. That is the seed.

That is not exactly what they are saying. You could create a private fork of a public repo and the code in your private fork is publicly accessible.

Thanks. I gave him this suggestion and the one from others about using the manufacturer’s proprietary drivers.

Thanks. I’ll let him know. I think he has either a Canon or Lexmark.

The issue you are experiencing likely has nothing to do with the VPN. Network connectivity is not needed to unlock the car. I have been in places with no cell phone signal and it still works.

I do sometimes experience the same issue you are. If I wake up my phone, then it works. So it may be working for you not because you disabled the VPN, but because you woke up your phone and it then sent out the bluetooth signal to let the car know you were nearby.

This is a bit tricky. It’s almost like those “ask your doctor if ___ is right for you” commercials except they are connecting you to the doctor as well.

The doctors will hopefully not be too heavily encouraged to just prescribe whatever the site/patient recommend without a regular evaluation.

Eli Lily clearly thinks this can boost demand for their medications. Increased, easier access to medical care is a good thing. Making medical care a part of the sales motion probably is not.

Hopefully this will be implemented in a way that leads to good health outcomes.

Thanks for summarizing this up for us. It will be interesting to see where this goes.

Amazon has been progressively getting worse and worse. I was not a member of Prime for the video. It was a nice perk.

The combination of Amazon making it hard to search for things to buy, the huge amount of low quality crap for sale with confusing descriptions, and this most recent change of putting in place ads if I do not pay an additional fee has led me to cancel my subscription.

They have taken the enshittification too far. Good bye Amazon. Hello Home Depot, Target, et al.

My Mom says it does the same to her. Then she eats Dorito chips or uses a seasoning in it that has MSG and nothing happens. When I point that out she is still convinced that it gives her migraines and maybe those things just don’t have enough of it.

🤷

I didn’t mean the message to sound the way it did. You already have the Spot messenger and it is a cool product. I just wanted to present another useful way to signal for emergency help in remote areas.
