I disagree about the batteries. Give me replaceable AA cells any day over a built-in Li-ion. Rechargeable AAs are readily available and quickly swappable if you keep hot spares. Much better option for long term serviceability.

I've been waiting for someone to do this for years.
I can't speak for other manufacturers, or even in other countries, but Mitsubishi Canada at least has an opt-out for data collection. You need to call their customer care number and they will remotely disable it.
When cruise control is on, yes, but it's extremely gentle. The slightest bit of resistance from the driver will overpower it.
Can't also for Toyota, but yes, my Mitsubishi has the option of simple cruise control without lane keeping.
I've never had any issue with the lane assist in my Mitsubishi. It's absolutely built as an "assist" and not something that will actually try to take control from you. It's trivial to "overpower" it manually and turn out of your lane without signaling if that's what you want to do, but does a perfectly reasonable job of steering on its own when left to its own devices.
That said, I wouldn't be driving a vehicle new enough to have the feature yet either if I hadn't been rear ended a couple of years ago and had my 2012 Lancer written off. :(
Same. I learned this was a thing just the other day.
I don't use them often but do find them nicer for parenthetical remarks sometimes.
It's a basic AC rectifier, the resistor represents an arbitrary DC load. You use similar circuits all the time, though generally with additional failsafes and some mechanism of smoothing out the rectified current.
"Conduit" is the word for those tubes for wires. Probably a shared etymology with "conductor" though.
Having the pipes in the mortar/bricks sounds like a maintenance nightmare.
...no? Why would it be?
Let's table that discussion.
Tap for spoiler
The meanings of "table" as a verb in US vs UK parliamentary usage are literally opposites. With the US meaning being to stop discussing or put aside for later, while the UK version means to begin discussing.
This actually caused confusion during allied meetings in WWII.

Microsoft did something like this with xbox controllers. There are additional contact points inside the battery chamber for a li-ion pack, so you could use a pair of AAs or their rechargeable pack that just fits into the same space.
