You could make a religion out of this.
It’d be easier to train clamp scientists to static fire than to train rocket scientists to clamp.

Exactly. Sidereal time does get rid of time zones and leap years, but it’s still referenced to a single physical object and relies on a arbitrary choice of start point. So it doesn’t create some perfect cosmic time standard.
The international date line doesn’t help since that’s just 180° offset from Greenwich itself.
The point of standards is that they can be followed by everyone. The AD/BC epoch is fine. The Greenwich meridian is fine. UTC is fine. Changing them would cause so much disruption that it cannot be worth it.
Daylight savings can go die in a ditch though.
doesn’t change
Citation needed.
Do you use leap seconds to stay in sync with earth’s rotation? When would they be applied? How would spacefarers be notified of these updates?
Also, what meridian do you choose for this ‘universal’ time? Is it still Greenwich? Because that’s peak colonial baggage.
I thought one thruster has been permanently disabled now? Not that that’s a major problem, but it does eat into their redundancy somewhat.
How will they filter it out? If they just don’t mirror anything with ‘forbidden’ terms, we can poison repos to prevent them being mirrored. If they try to tamper with the repo histories then they’ll end up breaking a load of stuff that relies on consistent git hashes.
That is fun, I didn’t know that was a thing. I imagine that roll-overs are more common than submersion in water, but even so, that doesn’t sound like a great trade-off. Even in a crash, being able to quickly jump out the window is good — especially if the vehicle is on fire.
The front ones don’t seem to be hidden, but yeah - if they’re not meant to be used regularly, people won’t remember them in an emergency. I guess the rear ones are hidden because they probably bypass child-locks.
I don’t know how child-locks work on mechanical door latches. If the vehicle locks when in motion and the child-locks are on I don’t think there are emergency releases on most vehicles? The only ways out would be to get into the front cabin, break the windows, or find the internal boot release.
There’s a panel that can be popped out to open the hood with a 12V power supply: https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/modely/en_us/GUID-34181E3A-B4A7-4658-906A-38C6647B5664.html

For the toddler to use?
There is a mechanical door release if you’re trapped inside. To get in from outside obviously needs the vehicle to unlock, so it has to be jump started.
Even if there was some kind of back-up mechanical lock I can’t see anyone carrying around a key only for this specific eventuality. A glass breaker key-ring might be the best option — along with understanding how to use these emergency features in case you need them. A glass breaker might also save you in a fire or ending up underwater.

So, uh, what happened to V-017?
I just take a chip

I got an overpriced 250×200mm sheet off Amazon, just because it was easy. It’s definitely available cheaper elsewhere. I was trying to get blank black G10 / FR4 board to match the PCB but it doesn’t seem easily available in small quantities (except from China). I just searched for 1.6mm sheet and this stuff came up (it’s 0.06 inch but close enough). It cuts really well with a hacksaw - didn’t chip or crack at all and cleans up with a file or just a craft knife. I roughed it up the surface with sandpaper to CA glue it together and they’re holding together great.
The key cap set I got only had 1 and 1.5U. There are some 1.25U caps available separately online so I may well do that, thanks!
Is there any reason to keep the existing set-up? If it’s just one drive, you could replace it with another and install Alma or something fresh. Then you could copy over whatever config the old system had to get up and running again. You could swap to the old drive if you needed to revert. If you have a spare machine, you could stand up the fresh setup side-by-side with the old one before swapping over.
Because then it would be 'a;imodo not qazimodo.
