  • Update: My car was serviced last night (2023-10-31) to fix this. It has been fixed for $190, but all they said about what was fixed was the following: Correction: X057 Connector Soft Set - Inspection I asked through the app what was found and how it was fixed, but got no response. X057 appears to be an identifier for a connector, but I can’t figure out from the wiring diagrams I have for the car where that connector would be. It appears the audio signals go through that connector, but that does not explain why the radio sounded fine, and only the navigation audio was unintelligible.

    The rules are entirely arbitrary, and have no basis in science. I have been told to turn off a GPS receiver that ran on two AA batteries for 12 hours. There is no possible way that you could affect the planes electronics with the power of two AA batteries. Especially not with electronics designed to be quiet enough not to interfere with the extremely weak GPS signals it must listen to. The electronics on a plane must be horribly designed if they can be affected by any hand held electronic device.





  • I spent seven years living in an apartment. I so enjoyed hearing the neighbors having sex, the thumping music they played, the smell of their cigarette smoke inside my apartment with all my windows closed, the random intrusions by management to repair something unrelated to my apartment, the random rent increases. Add this to the fact that I had no space for a work shop to make anything, and paying the equivalent of a mortgage with no equivalent home equity. Some people love apartment life, but it definitely was not for me.
