Yeah agreed, the data itself I don't have an issue with at all and this kind of info is stored on the vehicle.
1) We should have easy access to it. 2) Why is it instantly uploaded to some cloud, what I haven't done is tried to review how the data is used.
I have a Kia that's networked (since disabled). I did a GDPR data request and after a couple of weeks they sent me numerous CSV files and I was a little amused at some of the data fields.
Here's some examples I thought aren't for my benefit.
- How long I let the car warmup before driving after every start,
- max speed,
- acceleration rates,
- Lateral acceleration around corners tagged with GPS data,
- every GPS datapoint,
- destinations and exactly when I set off and arrived
This has ruined my optimism for the steam machine. I love my Steam Deck OLED, I don't play high end games at low settings or low framerates. I play older games, simpler indie games and it's an absolute joy for that.
This price increase is a hard sell still, makes me stick to the mantra of don't upgrade or buy anything unless there is no other option.
I'll just play different games, read a book, watch TV. There so much media out there, I don't want to be drawn into this AI RAM pricing war on products.
I'm in this boat, currently subscribed and with the news of them potentially stripping out the AI offering from the $10 subscription tier, I might give DDG another shot.
It just doesn't seem to surface much reddit content. I know I know reddit, but on niche topics they often have some good discussions/links/experts.
Cant tell if this is satire. But I'm not self hosting my passwords unless I fully understand exactly what's happening. Trusting that to an LLM without really understanding what's happening seems very risky to me.
