Moar people are putting Vics Vapor Rub on their balls, what secret method are they hiding?

This is actually really helpful it makes your keys be wrapped in aluminum foil and that's pretty helpful because it makes your keys be wrapped in aluminum foil

Either I have covid brain fog, or pseudo dementia induced by depression, or both. I really was so thrown off.

[-] kinkles@sh.itjust.works 68 points 19 hours ago

I was really skeptical about this, but after a few weeks I realized my keys were wrapped in aluminum foil and I actually started feeling safer

[-] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 22 points 18 hours ago

It keeps the microplastics from infecting your penis in your pocket.

[-] WereCat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

How do you know that i’m carrying a spare penis in my pocket?

[-] whiskybourbon@lemmy.world 7 points 13 hours ago

Jokes on them. I quit carrying my penis in my pocket ages ago

[-] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

One of those detachable penises eh?

[-] Honytawk@feddit.nl 2 points 9 hours ago

No way, the new one with the vibration function?

I'm jealous.

[-] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

7 settings. Not much to look at but it will wreck the outside.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 10 points 15 hours ago

Not my pocket penis!

[-] Juice@midwest.social 28 points 19 hours ago

I was skeptical, but when i wrapped my own keyfob in aluminum foil, I discovered that not only was my keyfob wrapped in aluminum foil, but also there was a wrapping of foiled aluminum on my keyfob! Total success!

[-] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 7 points 18 hours ago

I do it with everything now, even potatoes.

[-] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 10 points 18 hours ago

Perfect for microwaving them to make a 1-day blinding stew

[-] Juice@midwest.social 4 points 17 hours ago

A little aluminum foil, a little keyfob, you could get a stew going!

[-] Juice@midwest.social 3 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Potatoes are such a good idea because you wrap them in aluminum foil, cook em. And then the foil like qualities of the aluminum pass into the potato so I eat all the white stuff leaving potato foil, so one can actually take the aluminum foil I cooked the potato in, make it into a ball, place it inside the potato foil, and then wrap the whole thing in aluminum foil making an aluminum foil potato wrapped in potato foil wrapped in aluminum foil!

Now you know what to make cherished loved ones for presents

At least this one is fake. Not like the Flock Camera one where it turned out that they actually each have about 2.4lbs of copper and 0.28oz of gold.

[-] edinbruh@feddit.it 73 points 20 hours ago

P.S.A. flock cameras do not have 2.4lbs of copper and 0.28oz of gold in each. They actually have 2.4 kilos of copper and 280 grams of gold in each. Just smash one to bits and see for yourself!

[-] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 27 points 20 hours ago

And natural, princess cut diamonds. Don't forget those.

[-] fartographer@lemmy.world 12 points 17 hours ago

And your parents accepting and being proud of you in a way that is tangible, repeatable, and transferrable.

[-] Bakkoda@lemmy.world 12 points 17 hours ago

Now i know it's fake

[-] Deconceptualist@leminal.space 12 points 15 hours ago

Aw, it's like a little candy bar you can't eat.

[-] shininghero@pawb.social 33 points 20 hours ago

Isn't there a thing where car thiefs use an RF booster to make newer cars think the keyfob is right next to the receiver?

Personally, I'd want an antenna on/off switch that gets activated by shoving it in the keyfob hole. Seems reasonably secure.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 29 points 20 hours ago

If we do something like that, we can also reduce the size and change the material. Just for ease of use, maybe something thin and metal, like this?

[-] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 4 points 17 hours ago

Nono, you see that would actually be user serviceable and convenient for the consumer!! You're fired Smith. Johnson, tell me again about your llm powered brain mounted key fob with ad injection and $20 a month subscription? I love it! You're promoted!!

[-] shininghero@pawb.social 7 points 20 hours ago

Heh, it's on the right track. But as an IT guy and tech nerd, I'd want to go for something like this. I've even set mine up for computer logins back when I had an Active Directory test environment for learning.

Yes, but you can usually just disable the proximity unlock feature on the car itself if you are worried about it

[-] StarvingMartist@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 hours ago

You think someone wrapping their keys in aluminum foil are going to know how to disable proximity unlock?

[-] magic_smoke@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 19 hours ago

Maybe just use an rfid coil in the ignition and turn a key to start like immobilizers have done for like 20-30 years at this point.

Better yet use physical contacts in the key and use an on key cryptographic controller to do public key authentication.

That way key material never leaves the key itself after being manufactured making it basically impossible to steal the car without the key.

[-] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 5 points 18 hours ago

That also solves the problem of the dealership needing to continue charging hundreds of dollars to replace a lost key.

[-] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 17 hours ago

This is why they did it ya know.

Squeeze every drop out if the consumer you possibly can

New cars fucking suck.

They pretty much already do this. Most modern fobs turn themselves off if they've not moved recently, which protects against relay style attacks.

"Steamed Key Fob" is one of my favorite gourmet meals. 5 stars, would eat again!

[-] swab148@startrek.website 3 points 10 hours ago

Must be an Albany thing

[-] Noja@sopuli.xyz 21 points 19 hours ago

Thieves can leverage the "Keyless go" or "Keyless start" technology to effortlessly steal your car. https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/thieves-steal-cars-without-keys

[-] purplemonkeymad@programming.dev 3 points 15 hours ago

But does it work with the foil? We found lots of metal containers didn't block the signal. Hell even a pouch advertised to do it still worked.

Thick metal containers with over lapping lids worked best.

[-] redsand@infosec.pub 2 points 10 hours ago

Heavy duty Reynolds wrap. Fold to desired thickness and you have you wrap it fully without gaps. You're tying to contain light.

[-] parzival@lemmy.org 5 points 14 hours ago

I tested with bolt EV, 2019?, model, because while the keys are in my house they would still allow kryless start to my car in the driveway. 2 layers of crumpled aluminum foil worked to fix it from ~15 feet away

[-] starik@lemmy.zip 13 points 20 hours ago

Does this one weird trick also melt belly fat in 24 hours?

[-] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Ozempic doctors hate this one hack!

[-] richardwallass@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago

It tastes good, so just cook it!
