        Linux system requirements:

        - electricity (optional)
        - window (optional)

          Hones question, how can you have computer be optional? How can it run without processor? And could you install Linux on a literal potato from the ground?

              This.
              And I’m sure bacteria or fungi could do it too (or are doing it for all we know).

              Basically, Linux and Doom can run on purely ‘(optional)’.

        Is it just a mirrored/inverted display facing upwards under the windscreen glass?

        I used to do that with my old smartphone. It had a “HUD mode” where the whole screen became mirrored, then you just slide the phone to the end of your dash, and boom you’ve got a google maps HUD.

          They’re a bit fancier than that usually with some special glass and some of the more expensive ones will shoot the light specifically in a direction rather than just be a screen but yeah these all rely on the Pepper’s Ghost Effect

        Huh… didn’t even know they were putting HUDs in cars now. Guess that’s how it goes when you’re driving a car from 2007 with no intention to replace it till it dies.

          They’ve had HUD in cars since the 80’s.

          Granted it sucked, and typically only showed speed, but it was there.

          I think they’ve been doing HUDs in vehicles since the late 80s? They’re not very common though since they generally have reliablity issues (this is a lease).

            Idk where you live, but in the rust belt anything past 15 years old is basically dead due to significant corrison. I wish there were more to be done about it because I love wrenching on old Miatas, but they just continue to salt the roads even months before the first snowflakes (at least, where I live) and it eats vehicles to the point of safety issues and frame breakages over time. (My first car, a 1999 Suzuki esteem, actually had the frame snap while I was driving due to this. Body corrison was minimal, but the frame and undercarriage had completely given out).

              The oldest vehicle I’ve owned, a 2004 Ford escape couldn’t even make it to 17 years old. The axle snapped due to rust damage. Road salt is so terrible for vehicles, roads and the environment

          Lol yeah! Sorry, it’s kind of tough to photograph since it’s a HUD. I just noticed the “display license” selection when adjusting the height while in the parking garage today and felt it was silly enough to warrant sharing lol.

          If Microsoft named it, it’s temporary. Let’s check intune no wait endpoint manager, no wait, intune again. First I’ll just make sure my login works in azure ad, no wait entra, no wait it’ll be copilot by the end of the year. Not to be confused with copilot (office) copilot (github) or copilot (azure) or power platform no wait copilot?
