Thanks, it's definitely a good escape from the code, that's for damn sure.

Old cars are work for sure, but if you are willing to learn it's not bad.

I have a 2007 Mustang. I've replaced the entire front suspension, rear differential, alternator, and paid an upholsterer to replace the convertible top. I upgraded the radio and put in a 10inch touch screen with Wireless carplay and integrated backup camera. Next up is dropping the trans to replace the clutch plate, throw-out bearing, resurface the flywheel, and replace the rear main seal on the engine while I'm down there because the flywheel is rusty and accumulates a thin layer of rust every morning that makes a grinding noise for 30 seconds until it grinds off.

It definitely doesn't just work like a new car, but since I do the work myself it also doesn't cost me much.

Nowhere in the bill text does it say that. Please cite your sources. The bill is less than a five minute read. https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB1043/2025

You are absolutely right, but that doesn't stop a shitty lawyer from suing companies for it.

We also shouldn't have to put dumb warning labels on sleeping pills that tell people not drive cars or operate heavy machinery, but we do because a lawyer made an argument and won somehow.

No one here seems to have read the article.

This bill will NOT require ID uploads or any official documents. It is simply mandating a setting that upon device setup that a parent must state the age of the user using the device. That's it.

Sounds more like a legal framework for the companies to absolve themselves of the responsibility of protecting kids if they happen to see adult content. They can point and say it's the parents fault for not inputting the age setting correctly.

It passed the assembly unanimously.
