Hunt For The Wilderpeople?

I’m all for reducing attack surfaces but we all know Tesla can already remotely disable their EVs and they are one of the most popular EVs in AU - so how will banning Chinese and Russian EV fix the problem? It just moves the control to another country. At least if we diversify it will take multiple countries working in unison to disable all of our vehicles hah.

One way to mitigate this is by giving customers control of the SIM cards that are installed in their cars. Manufacturers should not be allowed to preinstall SIMs! And the car should run without a SIM (no blocking of functionality). That would do more for this issue than banning chinese EVs.

Oops, that line is wobbly, just make it a bit thicker. Now the other side is too small, I’ll make that a bit thicker too. Whoops, now that side is too thick, I’ll just touch up the other side… Whoops. Now looks like you fell asleep on an ink pad.

Couldn’t help but read that in Garth Merenghi’s voice

I recommend re-reading some of the series that you “remember liking”. I have done it with a bunch of series, including some large ones like WoT and Malazan, and have gotten wayy more out of them after a second reading and at a later age, than I have reading a bunch of new sci fi and fantasy authors.

The bar to publish today has never been lower, so even though I still read a lot I don’t often recommend anything. Obviously there are a few stand outs, Andy Weir is a good example, the Expanse guys, etc. but they seem few and far between…

One thing that worked for me when I was struggling to find good new sci fi was to go back through Hugo and Nebula award winners and nominations and read anything I haven’t read before. Found some gems in there I had never heard of that stick with me.

Good luck with the search
