Tell us you donâ(TM)t live in Sweden without telling us you donâ(TM)t live in Sweden.

A BankID authentication for a transaction always states who is requesting it (which may be fraudulent) and for how much the transaction is for. Itâ(TM)s no different from signing a contract you donâ(TM)t actually read.

Amazingly, technology advances over time. If your 2015 Volvo is a XC90, the sound you think is a hard drive is a cooling fan. If not, blame Ford for the late 2000s infotainment crap.
The Sensus system launched in 2015 doubled in speed in 2018, and when it was replaced with Android, it got a quad core 64-bit Intel system to run on. Performance hasnâ(TM)t been an issue for a long time.

Maybe they can fool investors, but not anyone who has ever had to build something in a highly regulated industry. There is no way they are going to take a type-certified passenger aircraft and retrofit their completely novel propulsion system into it and expect to carry passengers anytime soon. Trying to re-engineer the aircraft is crazy. It would probably be a better idea to just design a new aircraft for their propulsion system.

Your BMW also has multiple networks of AUTOSAR ECUs. Many manufacturers use this architecture. Where things blow up for 1337h4x0r5 is the CAN signals. In AUTOSAR, every ECU on a network contains a copy of the signal database. If any ECU is replaced, it must have the same version of the SDB loaded onto it or the ECU will be a babbling idiot on the network. This will cause many ECUs to start throwing DTCs and break all kinds of functionality.
