Nah, old(er) people would boot directly to a BASIC editor.
I think your person is already active in the UK?

Like, you’re choosing whether or not to shoot down a missile that launches in the general direction of Canada and America, but at launch you can’t see exactly which?

Exactly - not only can all modern cars remotely be accessed, anyone with access to those [insecure] maintenance pages could hypothetically:
- Track you on the GPS
- List your regular journeys
- Use the cameras to see who is in the car right now
- Wait for you to pass a certain remote area on one of your regular journeys
- Disable the car
- Unlock the doors
- Turn on the interior light
At that point, I wonder what access the car has to affect whether the driver’s phone can make a call…
+1, hope they do well, and 🙄 at the idea of british laws being consistent!
Look, I’m all for people researching other countries on Wikipedia, great on you!
I would just say that in very tense situations where the exact details of a law very much matters, the difference between different legal systems might be worth some consideration.
For example you link a useful police.uk document which lists a law whose wikipedia page mentions a different law applying in Scotland, where these people are.
It also links to a legislation.gov.uk page which has a “show geographical extent” feature on the left navbar. Applying this filter to the linked “Section 66” page, it shows “E+W” (England and Wales).
I’m aware that there is also some guidance about whether nipples are genitals, which might be relevant to the Scottish situation. And that nudists were specifically considered when writing some laws (as you mentioned, to protect them)
Just feel like trans people protesting in such a visible way, in a particular part of the UK, who will defininitely be featured in newspapers… it seems like they would have legal guidance from someone with a lot more local knowledge than, for example, knowing which countries comprise the UK?
UK or England and Wales?
Wait till you hear why the Pentagon has twice aa many bathrooms as they need…

Same but when you specifically ask for celcius/centigrade in the search prompt, and the first two pages of results either give the temperature in F or just as ⁰ without any units.

“Generate a movie in the style of star wars”
Was just watching a kubernetes tutorial recorded a year ago, and the entire website / package repository it uses doesn’t exist anymore because modern devs can’t go six months without changing everything.
