Today's lesson: Almost Everything Electronic These Days Has A Secret Debug Mode
(Subtitled: I am a very big geek.)
So I'm riding in the car with my father who has his car in for service and has a loaner. In a new BMW 5 series, more importantly with iDrive. So we're riding along and I'm thinking and pondering and realize hey that whole iDrive has a pretty extensive software backbone. Then I start to wonder if it has a secret debug mode or a Field Test program or such. Yes I know geeky but hey it gets worse.
Out comes the iPhone (heavy customized, geek strike two) where I quickly google BMW secret debug modes using my EDGE connection (geek strike three).
Of course five minutes later I have a nice debug menu all pulled up. I laugh and shut it off because I have no use for it.
Kids I need a girlfriend...badly
