Ehh. Plenty of places you can go buy land and try, but you need a decent population mass (i.e. commune) to actually be somewhat self sufficient. Without money, you’re not going to be buying any tools, construction materials or any other supplies.
Medical treatment also ends up being questionable - if you’re in the US, you probably get nothing unless you’re about to die. If you’re elsewhere, other people’s taxes pay for it…
HDMI and DP do not carry their signals in the same way. HDMI/DVI use a pixel clock and one wire pair per colour, whereas DP is packet-based.
“DisplayPort++” is the branding for a DP port that can pretend to an HDMI or DVI port, so an adapter or cable can convert between the two just by rearranging the pins.
To go from pure DisplayPort to HDMI, or to go from an HDMI source to a DP monitor, you need an ‘active’ adapter, which decodes and re-encodes the signal. These are bigger and sometimes require external power.
Various articles and forum posts suggest that using the emergency/manual releases can crack the windows. It looks like the door can’t/shouldn’t be opened with the window fully raised, and part of the normal door opening process is for the car to lower the windows a few millimetres.
Well that’s not good. There was a recent software update which does electrically pull down the windows incase someone manually releases the door so hopefully that issue is no longer. Unless the window Reg doesn’t get power which can be caused by a lot of trivial things (like the puddle lamp burning out)

While braking suddenly is something that can happen on the roads, it’s still a potentially dangerous maneuver. It’s often better than the alternative (crashing into something/someone), but there’s still risk involved.
If these vehicles are doing panic stops frequently and unnecessarily, that’s a major problem. It’s a common type of insurance fraud, for starters.
I wouldn’t be surprised to find that the computer has a faster initial braking response whereas it takes time for peoples’ feet to fully depress the brake pedal. A shorter time from the brake lights coming on to the brakes being at full service pressure.
Blackadder: Would that be the plan to continue with total slaughter until everyone’s dead except for Field Marshall Haig, Lady Haig and their tortoise, Alan?
It’s pretty common to own a domain but not actually host the email server; doing on-premises email is a security PITA and most providers simply blacklist large swathes of residential and leasable (e.g. VPS) IPs.
Unfortunately, if you get someone else to host your email, they often charge by the account, not by the domain. Setting up a new mailbox is therefore irritatingly expensive.
A catch-all email works well, though, and is free from most of the hosting providers. Downside is you get spam…
Jane@JaneDoe certainly seems more common than mail@JaneDoe.
South Australia had a blackout a few years back because the grid standards were lax on how they should be configured, so the manufacturers had set the defaults overly conservatively.
It’s a learning moment but should be a solved problem.
Any grid stability issues can also be resolved by constructing more synchronous condensers.
