Or just automatic bots that auto-revert anything on articles with the edit-comment "Reverted vandalism" or such... with no info on how to contact the human running said bot... Gave up correcting details on pages years ago due to this.

I tried for a while to update various details around oil rigs and sites on the articles and every single one got immediately reverted with "Reverted vandalism" as the automatic reason.
Things like changing dates of installation for a living quarters module by 3 months. Article had original planned date but the project got delayed... with automatic bots reverting changes like that how would I trust that other details can get fixed?

"Notability" is a frequently used way to kill content. Somehow they're afraid of 'cluttering' or 'overloading' the wiki with 'useless' information?....

Jeep already had a widely publicized issue that let anyone access the can-bus over the net.

All cars are vulnerable to a local access attack, but some might leave the can-bus accessible to the entertainment system which increases the attack surface significantly... Especially if said system is internet connected.

The "secure" system was winxp. We were fucked all around :p

I observed the admin on an oil rig keep a USB stick in the usb-slot on his KVM for secure/nosecure computer use to "ease data transfer"
He was issued one that required him to unlock it to mount, but he found that tedious so he replaced it with one he bought on ebay :p
Automount between secure and insecure every time he switched... he saw no issue with this.

Glad that shit is illegal in Norway.

I'm required to take 3 weeks off by our labor laws in Norway.
That takes the blame away from the worker and puts it on the government as far as the company would be concerned.

Then again, the concept of a "joint vacation period" or "Fellesferien" is a thing here: http://articles.latimes.com/20...

Especially nice if you travel a lot... insert into hotel TV and boooom

I adore KLM as an airline. With 50+ flights and only had issues once I'm fairly happy with how they handle things.
The one time it went to shit I missed my second leg flight to the US but got re-booked and handed a stack-o-euros with no mess.

Curse launcher has let you do simple 'add this, add that' type building of packs for a while now.
It used to be a shitshow but works decently even for new users these days.

They broke the factory seal on the motherboard box in my bag.
Took the board out of the antistatic bag and pulled on components and inspected the heat sinks..
Then chucked it onto a table (it bounced)...

Then they arranged plugs and dildos on the table (Hey, I was visiting a partner :p) and I had the joyful experience of explaining to the young guy doing this what a strap-on harness is for.

Oh did I not mention that this was don in full view of about 500 passengers waiting in line? :p

The constant "Homg lern 2 deal nubs" crud thrown around about "all these weak people" with regard to mental health is so incredibly frustrating.

Fucking with someone's psyche should not be so easily dismissed. Destroying someone's life is no joke :(

Not sure why "life in danger" matters all that much.

Putting someone through watching a suicide is sure as hell not ethical in any sense and could very well cause serious harm.
Having quite a few friends who struggle with the aftermath of their own attempts at suicide or friend's successful suicides it is not something to take lightly.

I do not find it even remotely close to the 'tasteful side'.

I do not know about you, but one of my main grumps while in school was the dry non-interactive way everything was taught.
Doing something where you use what you've learned in other classes to have something 'do' something was fun for me at least.

Middle-school in Norway has "Technology and Design" as a class. One thing they did was design a miniature house (think doll-house sized open-sided) where they built furniture and various 'innards'. As part of this design process they put in electric wiring and switches and designed lamps using LEDs. Soldering was part of this.
Another task was building a simple 'water spill sensor' which is a simple sensor using a transistor to switch a LED or buzzer on wire getting wet (wires woven into a piece of paper or cloth)

Students love that shit... It sounds fairly simple stuff but it is such a big break from just sitting at a desk staring at a wall trying to absorb a lesson and not succumb to boredom.

Lego NXTs are also part of this and simple programming gives quite a lot of understanding that can be used later in life.
