I mean, it makes perfect sense particularly if you don't want (really, get paid to not want) people to get off cars

Fwiw, I believe the infotainment not responding while the reverse camera is active is meant as a feature, since you're meant to be focused wholly on where you're driving, might even be a regulation requirement.

As you pointed out however, in practice it really just means you're stuck with whatever the audio setup was left at before going into reverse (compounded by the unit being made with as cheaply sourced components as possible, to the detriment of usability and responsiveness).

Some units do have a built-in feature where it'll heavily lower the volume (maybe by about half?) whenever you're in reverse to mitigate this.

Isn't the whole thing of sleep v hibernate that sleep needs the constant trickle for ram, while hibernate dumps the ram contents into storage?

Reminds me I'm about due to reread the Bikini Bottom Horror, ever since it came out in.... 2020??

Was a spawn of the Im Sorry Jon genre(?) around that time

Killer fit 🔥🔥🔥

I'll be honest tho, I got distracted by the "ROTDOG OHW" poster and started imagining an adultswim parody doctor who show, maybe done in the style of robot chicken

From compcon.app, the irl and in universe compendium/builder:

Make a tech attack against a character within Sensors. On a hit, for the rest of the scene, the first time in a round they move adjacent to an allied character during their turn or start their turn adjacent to one, both characters take 3 heat. They can end this effect with a successful Systems save as a full action. This can only affect one character at a time

You basically enforce social distancing.

What's extra fun is because it's any character, you can get some funky synergies with friendly mechs that want to have high heat

Also all of the HORUS aligned mechs and ability are all big on mythology (as you can tell from the "faction" name)

To clarify, it's not that the pilot can't escape it; you can totally hop out and try to brave the combat scenario on foot. It's just that for the mega meltdown to go off, you MUST be in the mech and accept your fate.🤘

I've sometimes described it the same as when someone goes skydiving and can't jump out. It's that same level of subconscious block, but to seemly mundane things (at least in my experience)
