I took my car to the dealership (begrudgingly) for recall work, and they have one of these scanners. I'm not sure if AI is attached to it, but it clocked hundreds of dings and dents as "needing repair" despite everything being simple cosmetic scratches and dings.

A friend of mine works for a dealership, where they have one of these things too, and even raindrops will register thousands of dings on these readers. They're so full of shit to siphon every single penny out of their customers.

I guess that's the beauty of the threadiverse. It just seems like a strange decision to recreate someone's extremely niche community just so it isn't on lemmy.ml.

This is close to my hometown! To my knowledge, no one has tried to steal the sign since they added the RFID tracking (or threatened to) about a decade ago.

I'm really good at tearing away paper towels from the toll with one hand

Maybe this will help me get out of my creative rut...

I've been so excited for this silly little game since it was first announced.
