Nepali has quite a few.

मा. प. से. (Ma Pa Se) - Madak Padartha Sewan - directly translates to taking of illicit substance but is used to describe DUI
ने. बि. (Ne Bi) - Nepal Bidhyarthi - Nepal student (Association)
भु. पु. (Bhu Pu) - Bhoot Purva - Past/previous.
There are more that I’m blanking out on right now.
That’s why I say “dub dub dub” it confuses people and I have to explain that it’s www which is short for world wide web but I saved a little bit of time by saying dub dub dub…wait a minute…
I don’t speak Spanish but I love the word “El sacapuntas” which sounds like a bad word but means pencil sharpener.
I think it’s more than just money. The judge in this case was also worried about optics. Throwing someone like the orange turd in jail for contempt, while warranted, could look like election interference because he is the nominee for president. It could rile up his base even more and we could have another January 6th on our hands.
Money/resources.
The dashboard has nothing to do with data collection. That happens internally with various chips and ecu. The data being sent to the company servers don’t care about your dashboard, that’s handled by a different chip that has 3g/4g connectivity. In fact, you can buy a fancy tool that plugs into your obd II port on one end and a laptop in the other see real time data about how various systems are performing and what’s happening based on your driving.
I don’t know if 3g is completely dead at this point but it’s on it’s way out. I think those on-star enabled cars are using 3g but I could be wrong. As far as ripping those out, I doubt it since all of that is integrated into a single chip or it’s soldered on. Best that you can probably do is hope that it is relying on defunct network so it can’t communicate to the mothership anymore but you wouldn’t have a way to verify that.
