Originally the D.A.I.R. project (Driver Aid, Information and Routing) was conceptualized in the 60’s. It wasn’t until Hughes assisted EDS in the 90’s that they were able to create a beacon that could communicate via Satellite and Cellular.
I myself didn’t realize this was a thing until about a decade ago when I was trying to create an automation for my lights to turn on when I pulled into my driveway. I kept getting a ping about 5min after my phone connected to my WiFi. The MAC matched nothing I had in the house, I just blew it off.
When an associate stopped by to work on a HoneyPot project we started seeing a bunch of random MACs attempt to connect to the open wifi, we wrote that noise off as people walking by my house and their cell phones were just trying to connect. It wasn’t until the garbage man showed up and stopped to talk to me that I was able to find his truck listed with an address connected to the open wifi, sent a few packets, then left. We made the correlation that the MAC’s could be from cars so we started researching the manufacturer of those device MAC’s
That pretty much opened a weird rabbit hole leading us to find out that almost every car has been tracked since the mid-90’s.
Joking aside, I would move to Amish country if it weren’t for the whiskey and bitches. But in all honesty; my family lives a much more comfortable life than I ever imagined I would with working in the IT field.
GPS had been implemented in vehicles in the 90’s. Most people are now finding out about the modems.
I don’t think enough people have mentioned that Auto manufacturers have been able to locate vehicles since the 90’s.
the organisation based the the UK considered it to be a genocide.
There are like a dozen happening right now and it’s quite exhausting coming up with plans to help as many as I’m capable of helping.

If we’re talking about 1940’s Gaza, wouldn’t it have made more sense defacing an Egyptian statue?
thank you for the visual representation ☺️
CoPilot with Gemini plugin did.
I’m voting Joe because he is still the only qualified candidate for the job. The package he brings is a Vice President who could do the job if he were to step down due to health/age concerns to guarantee a female President as his dream come true. She then gets to pick her Vice President which should absolutely be AOC. The opposition has no convincing argument to draw this out in a court as they would need to present their arguments to AOC for rebuttal,
It’s just so batshit crazy it can’t fail.
I wasn’t raised with cable so TV isn’t my thing, but I was fortunate enough to live by a $1 theatre and watch all kind of movies in a theatre, I’m just gonna go back to that. Once I find a dollar theatre.
I miss the old Netflix, where discs would come to my house.
I prefer to shave so individuals can see that I have a chin / jawline.
I’ve been trying to wrap my head around a decentralized git so I can release a pokemon rom hack.

Reviewing his career and accomplishments - the guy was a real life Michael Douglas in Falling Down… but followed through on a larger scale. And deaths, a whole lot more deaths.

Standard in 2008 If the auto manufacturer offered OnStar or Sirius, earlier.
I wish it wasn’t true, and I definitely feel like a nut job when I bring it up.
