The ONLY problem is that not everyone else has done so yet. Government shouldn't be allowed to tax income and profit.

I attribute it down to mostly the elimination of leaded gasoline. 18-20 years after use drops, crime drops as well.

Sure. The reason for stupid ideas, like Lysenko, taking over is lack of competition, which is inherent to communism, In a capitalist system people are searching for ways to make money for themselves, so there are enough competing ideas being tried out with private money. If the money runs out before profits are made, the ideas stop. When government can keep subsidizing bad ideas they don't stop, they just keep getting bigger and more stupid.

There was actually an incident of this some years ago. A pensioner (not the USA, UK, or similar) was declared dead by mistake. So they stopped his payments, went to take his housing away, etc...
He ended up being the most polite thief, just for life necessities.
They eventually tried to arrest him. Except the computer wouldn't accept the entry because dead. Fingerprints were for a dead man.
Couldn't hold a normal court case because dead.
It took like a year to fix, and they decided to drop the charges and stuff because he paid the businesses back when they finally gave him the back money owed.

Autocorrupt: some to somehow

If the aftermarket fob is a cheaper build, one needs to look for a better quality kit. Never had a problem with my fobs.
And yes, the replacement fob did everything.

With lead-acid and extended run times, volume starts mattering again. Especially if one is trying to retrofit cell towers that might not have had significant UPS capability before.

In addition, the lead-acid batteries in this use can last for a long time, and perhaps more importantly, the UPS equipment is set up for lead-acid. It's cheaper to replace the lead-acid batteries than it is to switch to a newer chemistry, even if LFP is getting down to lead-acid prices per kWh.

For a NEW install, I'd very much look at newer chemistries. Though NMC would be low on the consideration list. As you said, need durability not low mass/volume, and lower cost is always good.

I had an aftermarket remote starter in my truck, professionally installed, no problems with it for a decade.
They did hook it up, it replaced my original remote, so I didn't have to carry both.

I remember that, but things have improved a lot. A cell tower only takes 1-8kW, and we have drastically better batteries.
Plus, a lot fewer land lines, so need to keep the towers up for emergency services.

Obviously. I am currently looking for a data provider for various IOT devices, talked to all major providers, talking to ton of others. Major providers demand that equipment is approved by their networks, in conversations this is all about keeping cheaper equipment out of the country, that's all.

If I had the points, I'm not sure whether I'd mod you insightful or funny. I certainly laughed at it.
I also just replaced the starter in mom's 2005 Saturn Vue due to the relay going bad.
I'm not sure how that thing would start a fire, there's only 2 wires to it, unless the starter itself was bad.

Aftermarket power steering, that's a *shudder* from me.

I'm also very curious as to how one ends up with a separate fob for the starter, even in an ICE vehicle. Maybe fluffer is talking about a different part than what I'm thinking about?

Fluffer - to most of us, the starter is the electric motor that turns the engine in order to start the engine. It generally has a relay to signal time to start, and a wire directly from the battery to provide the amperage necessary to turn everything. Were you thinking of something different? I'm not aware of any starters that have anything really remote.

Unless the thinking is having a different fob for the car doors and operating the vehicle, like how early cars would have different keys for the doors and the starter, because they hadn't thought to match the two up yet, or that was considered too expensive.

I notice you have dropped your other argument without acknowledging it.

And no, I do not have reading comprehension problems. "I made a mistake" puts the blame on you. "[something] made me make a mistake" puts the blame on [something].

Given that English is not your first language (my presumption being based on a reference to German news sources in 1986) I think it's fair to say that this is an understandable error. English is a fucked up amalgamation often jokingly referred to as "three other languages in a trench coat" so a simple grammatical error like this is easily explained by the language barrier. I have a bunch of German colleagues that all have some word and grammatical choices when speaking English (saying things like "unpossible" rather than "impossible," for example) that probably make perfect sense as a direct translation and I would think this falls into that category, wouldn't you say?

Always nice to meet someone who considers me a kid.

I had one breakthrough DMT experience where I saw 'the machine elves' (I just saw what I describe as fast-moving fractals that I 'felt' were beckoning to me); but, we have matching experiences w/the other primary psychedelics: I only had relatively minor on-top visual distortions with even the largest doses of LSD (1500+ mcg) or mushrooms.

That said, everyone is different. I know that some of my friends absolutely lost their fucking minds on a few tabs of LSD and, purportedly, experienced wild hallucinations that I have to trust were real to them but haven't ever experienced myself.

Are you suggesting that German news sources don't have archives? It's amazing what we can do with computers these days. But, sure, it doesn't sound fair to ask you to look for a needle in a stack of needles, so I'll let that go.

Let's.

Funny, I found the text with little difficulty, and I speak like thirty words of German. From German Wikipedia:

Additionally, with regard to your "I did not say that" you said "your steam bullshit made me type wrong." You certainly placed the blame for your error upon me.
