  • Same here in Canada. I think its legitimate learners. Not sure why you think age has anything to do with it, theres no max age to learn to drive. Hell, my late grandma didn’t get her licence/learners permit until she was in her 60s.

    Could be related to an influx of immigrations as well, plenty of people didn’t have the luxury to get a drivers licence or own a vehicle.

    That or people are just too lazy to remove them haha.




  • Yep, one in the utility room by the furnace, one in the upstairs front door closet beside the kitchen, and one in the garage. Haven’t had to use them for myself personally… but the neighbours came slamming on the door a few times needing one.

    IMO every residence should have one handy. Never know what could happen or who might need one. I really should get one thats rated for electrical fires however.







  • 1: there is, but at this point its pretty niche and scattered. Lots of its hush-hush due to like you said potential security/insurance concerns. Mostly used for cracking and getting system/diagnostics readouts and error codes, Fob cloning, etc. without forking out cash to do so through the so called “proper channels”.

    2: not that I’ve seen, and from they software they do use it seems mainly in house additions.

    Though im not super into the scene, and i see it growing rapidly over the next few years seeing manufacturers keep doing some scummy shit to lock down their products.

    Edit: fat fingered post before i finished typing it out oops.

    You can track the health status of most smart enabled ssds. Can use a tool like crystal disk info

    Personally i have 2 7 year old ssds going strong without issue. Mainly used for storage and games, so the r/w rates been pretty lower on them.

    Ssds do have a total maximum write cycles to nand. Really depends on the use cases over the 5 years.
