I was really skeptical about this, but after a few weeks I realized my keys were wrapped in aluminum foil and I actually started feeling safer
It keeps the microplastics from infecting your penis in your pocket.
Not my pocket penis!
Jokes on them. I quit carrying my penis in my pocket ages ago
How do you know that i’m carrying a spare penis in my pocket?
Big if true

At least this one is fake. Not like the Flock Camera one where it turned out that they actually each have about 2.4lbs of copper and 0.28oz of gold.
P.S.A. flock cameras do not have 2.4lbs of copper and 0.28oz of gold in each. They actually have 2.4 kilos of copper and 280 grams of gold in each. Just smash one to bits and see for yourself!
And natural, princess cut diamonds. Don't forget those.
And your parents accepting and being proud of you in a way that is tangible, repeatable, and transferrable.
Now i know it's fake
Isn't there a thing where car thiefs use an RF booster to make newer cars think the keyfob is right next to the receiver?
Personally, I'd want an antenna on/off switch that gets activated by shoving it in the keyfob hole. Seems reasonably secure.
If we do something like that, we can also reduce the size and change the material. Just for ease of use, maybe something thin and metal, like this?
Heh, it's on the right track. But as an IT guy and tech nerd, I'd want to go for something like this. I've even set mine up for computer logins back when I had an Active Directory test environment for learning.
Nono, you see that would actually be user serviceable and convenient for the consumer!! You're fired Smith. Johnson, tell me again about your llm powered brain mounted key fob with ad injection and $20 a month subscription? I love it! You're promoted!!
That would never work, where's the battery even supposed to go? ;)
Maybe just use an rfid coil in the ignition and turn a key to start like immobilizers have done for like 20-30 years at this point.
Better yet use physical contacts in the key and use an on key cryptographic controller to do public key authentication.
That way key material never leaves the key itself after being manufactured making it basically impossible to steal the car without the key.
That also solves the problem of the dealership needing to continue charging hundreds of dollars to replace a lost key.
This is why they did it ya know.
Squeeze every drop out if the consumer you possibly can
New cars fucking suck.
The solution to that is open source tooling to download backup and re-upload your private key material to a set of keys.
Doesn't solve the issue of the key cut though.
Oh god I always hated those cars that start by pressing a button. Fuck off let me turn my key. I like the thing where the car unlocks automatically if you are next to it and all that but for the love of god the press button to start car thing needs to die.
Yes, but you can usually just disable the proximity unlock feature on the car itself if you are worried about it
You think someone wrapping their keys in aluminum foil are going to know how to disable proximity unlock?
They pretty much already do this. Most modern fobs turn themselves off if they've not moved recently, which protects against relay style attacks.

Thieves can leverage the "Keyless go" or "Keyless start" technology to effortlessly steal your car. https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/thieves-steal-cars-without-keys
But does it work with the foil? We found lots of metal containers didn't block the signal. Hell even a pouch advertised to do it still worked.
Thick metal containers with over lapping lids worked best.
I tested with bolt EV, 2019?, model, because while the keys are in my house they would still allow kryless start to my car in the driveway. 2 layers of crumpled aluminum foil worked to fix it from ~15 feet away

"Steamed Key Fob" is one of my favorite gourmet meals. 5 stars, would eat again!
Must be an Albany thing
"More and more!"
It was 2 lunatics, now it is 7.
Does this one weird trick also melt belly fat in 24 hours?
Ozempic doctors hate this one hack!
Moar people are putting Vics Vapor Rub on their balls, what secret method are they hiding?
Put pure menthol on your balls. Use it on your sounding rod. You will definitely not regret it.
i tried this , it's a new testicle maxing technique from Andrew Taint, ended up at 4am dipping my balls in a bucket of ice cream gasping "oh blessed Jesus , so fucking good!" Alas my wife and daughter opened the door to the kitchen to see what all the noise was about, seeing me spread eagled and naked on the floor, my balls in a tub of ice cream, my daughter looked me in the eye and slowly her eyes went dead, she and my wife said nothing, packed up and left there and then.
I did however notice i needed to clean under the refrigerator

"Big Aluminium" counts on conspiracies to sell, sell, sell.
Now when I lose my keys I just shine bright spotlight into the room and look for the flash of alu foil.
The other day I saw a guy who had a little tin foil “folder” for his credit card. I guess he was trying to block criminals from getting his card number?
RFID for contactless payments.
You can just hold your NFC phone with a payment app to someones butt & give yourself a few monies.
Yeah, in a serious country, it's easy to identify the criminal and send them to jail. So this tends to happen in short and localized bursts where people don't steal a lot.
But it does exist.
We need a digital € anyway.
I mean, arguably that's what visa and mastercard and whatnot are. We need one with infrastructure controlled by the gubmint because it's a utility, not a service. In the following 500 pages I will prove...
Oh, 100%, it's core infrastructure!
It's just mad to have that privatised. And held by monopolies. From an unstable third-world country.
In EMU we just got/are getting Wero, which is getting adopted to serve this purpose (and in the same way as payment cards too, eventually).
(Basically all the big banks already support it, even tho they many offer similar in-house services, and the countries/makers are set for adoption in the coming years. Overall the initial one-time infrastructure cost per bank is laughably minimal, basically less than annual fees to MasterCard/Visa.)
We however don't have a clear timeline on digital Euro, a digital currency that can be used as regular "traceless" "cash" (that means offline as well) payments.
