The FOA hired independent tech experts who began reverse-engineering Fisker’s proprietary software patches. Members taught each other how to flash firmware. They organized bulk purchases of replacement parts — negotiating the price of key fobs down from roughly $1,000 each to a fraction of that through coordinated group buys. They hosted free global key fob pairing events, saving each owner $100 to $250.
In Europe, they created what they call the “Flying Doctors” program — a mobile repair network where technically skilled members travel to help other owners keep their vehicles running.

New comic book Humble Bundle promises "infinite dread"
Starts at $5 for Dwellings, which has gotten good reviews. The Hobtown Mystery stories have been on my watchlist for a while because their covers are so good.
Today's news and jokes
After Steve Sarkisian took a shot at Ole Miss academics earlier this week, it struck me that I don't think basket weaving sounds especially easy So I called an actual basket weaver and let him explain and defend his craft "I’m not really sure how it became a pejorative" www.al.com/sec/2026/05/...
