06.22.23: Automaker Data Capture & What They Do w/ It (Or Refuse to Admit They’re Doing), A Submarine Built with Doubt, Federal Law Enforcement’s Ongoing Green Fail-Fest, + Destroyers in WW2, Green Beret Party Games & Clutch

Of course, we could not have known that the little sub that might’ve didn’t (R.I.P., gents), but a thought or two about trusting your geek instinct and self-preservation...  There’s also a few thoughts about how automakers are attempting to (or desperately want to) capture and sell your data, from face-recognition to fingerprints and banking records to who you know.  ...Sound like what you signed up for when you wanted a new car?

More gearhead goodness:  plumb and true versus rack, rake and run, being as dumb as a smart home, Ai versus operator, Polish beet sauce, wool from Cabela’s, pirate ships, more soy at the FBI, and lot’sa Clutch.
