@HardwareGeek No. You act like a child.
-
In that case, @HardwareGeek is the kind of child who corrects the teachers. Even worse, he's actually right.

You're not wrong. (Actually, I don't remember doing that as a child, but I definitely did in college.)

I bet they liked it as much as the time when I corrected my English teacher’s pronunciation of “graffiti” during an exam.
-
@Gurth I didn't do it during class, so I was neither embarrassing them nor wasting class time. I was disputing test grading. They both admitted I was right, but one of them refused to change the grade (even without changing the disputed grade, I had 99% on that exam), and it took research at 3 different libraries to convince the other.
-
@HardwareGeek I was totally that kid. Even worse, I'd answer other kids' questions before the teacher could, right, without even looking up from my book.
-
So you decided to become a teacher to see how fun it was from the other side of the table?

I was also that kid who never had to study and wasn't graceful enough to hide that fact.
I became a teacher to pay for my sins as a student.

I hope you got your change back...

In my case it was during an individual exam, two teachers questioning me on the books I (claimed to have) read for English class. I corrected one of them, he thought he then corrected me in turn by saying the word in the Dutch pronunciation again :)

I'm sorry, but we can't burn the neighbour's house down until AWS starts working again.

That wasn't the I was expecting.

I just wanted to emphasize that part. QFS, if you will.

@HardwareGeek these people have an anthem, not that they know it yet.

The nice thing about our forum memes is that many exist for a reason. Most people weren't born jaded.
So while results are often disappointing, they're still entirely predictable.

Born perfect
Born different
Born better
I'm not like you
I'm a
Born lover
Born living
And I know, I'm
I'm not like you
I was
Born clever
Born knowledgeable
Born better than your best
I swear
I'm a born killer
Born thriller.

… or something, anyway.

@Arantor is there a version that doesn't have the most annoying singer who has ever walked on Earth in the chorus? Because I like the song itself.
-
@Gąska most covers actually seem to be instrumental and, oddly, quite jazz sounding. There are some complicated reasons why.
Did not find a cover with a better singing voice.

A smart oven at least I could see some usecases for.
I think the only thing we ever use the oven for is cakes, pizzas, and for Thanksgiving some casserole stuff. It is otherwise storage for random cast-iron things.

I can't be the only one thinking that remote start is a stupid idea.

@TimeBandit is a stupid idea.

If you think the idea is stupid, wait until you see the actual implementation

@Zerosquare No in , only polar s.

@dcon I thought that looked kinda like a sturgeon, but I didn't know they occur in Canada. TIL they used to be common throughout North America.

I'm sure there are others who agree with you. Why do you dislike remote start?

Anyways:
It has security hole written all over it. Opening the doors remotely exists though and you don't hear about those being compromised too often. Maybe it's fine. If I the option on a Porsche I owned I would say no.

Never heard of it being a problem. Because you can't drive off without the keys usually. It's non-remote start that's the problem. People go start their car to warm it up (or cool it down) and leave it running with the keys in it (because there's no other way) and someone drives off.
