[06:52] DaemonFC Beeping at me, making me fight to get into a traffic lane? [06:52] DaemonFC Making an accident about 1,000 times more likely than a car without the "safety" feature.

[06:55] DaemonFC Sometimes if "safety" stuff malfunctions on my car, I just pry it off, or splice in a mod and lies to the computer to force another behavior. [06:55] DaemonFC It's ridiculous even on a 2008. [06:55] DaemonFC I had to patch in a airbag sensor emulator months back. [06:55] DaemonFC Because GM stopped making replacement seat sensors and I was getting the "airbag off, on, off, on, off, on" warning. [06:56] DaemonFC It would have been a $600 job even if they still made them, which they don't. [06:56] DaemonFC So I unplugged the harness and plugged in a little module that lies to the car and says there's a 200 pound person in the seat all the time so the airbags get fired if there's a crash. [06:56] DaemonFC Failing safe, just like a car from 2004 would have. [06:57] DaemonFC mjg59_, So much of what I do is negative work, and it's because of people like you.
