As Ford's popularity falls, Ontario's Liberal leadership race heats up Recent opinion polling suggests the Ontario Liberals may be righting the ship after years of heavy defeats to Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives as the race to take the helm of the party’s future begins to heat up. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-liberal-leadership-race-9.7297207?cmp=rss

#Ford wanted to charge me $2600 for the little C-Clip that holds the rod in place. ($2600 is the price of a new Turbo, they don't sell the C-Clip separately) Cost me 42 cents and all of 10 minutes to install (and most of that was getting the jack out and putting it away.) #enshitifcation #righttorepair

#Ford trying to charge me $2653 to replace an entire turbo when I just need the .42 cent C-clip to hold the waste gate actuator on, because they don't sell just the C-clip. Autozone has a 18 pack for $7.49. #rightorepair #enshitifcation #plannedobselence

#Ford #AppLink is a pretty cool protocol, even though it's officially discontinued. Turns out, there's nothing stopping you from spoofing an arbitrary "App ID" meaning you can get the permissions of the old version of the FordPass app. This includes making arbitrary OBD-II/UDS queries and getting live location data. Not really a user security issue, per se, since the user still has to approve turning on AppLink and allowing access to vehicle data... but still interesting. https://github.com/BlueOvalLabs/pyapplink

The Ford Escort is a small family car that was manufactured by Ford of Europe from 1968 until 2004. In total, the six generations were spread across three basic platforms: the original, rear-wheel-drive Mk.1/Mk.2 (1968–1980), the "Erika" front-wheel-drive Mk.3/Mk.4 (1980–1992), and the final CE-14 Mk.5/Mk.6 (1990–2002) version.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Escort_(Europe) #Ford

Novara Media | Ford Falsely Accuses Diabetic Worker of Stealing Cookie, Then Fires Him by Tom Midlane AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. A diabetic Ford employee, 60‑year‑old Kurt Kromm, who had worked 11 years at the Kentucky Truck Plant, was falsely accused of stealing a $1.95 chocolate‑chip cookie from the plant’s snack kiosk and was terminated after supervisors summoned him and escorted him off the premises. Kromm said the payment screen initially rejected his transaction but succeeded on a second try, and he later provided bank‑screen shots confirming the purchase; Ford then invited him back, but he refused. He noted that he earned over $200,000 the previous year and spent $1,200 on canteen items, making the accusation implausible, while the Kentucky Truck Plant—one of Ford’s most profitable sites, generating $25 billion in 2023 revenue—remains a key producer of Super Duty, Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator models. Ford’s spokesperson acknowledged that some cases may be handled differently and the company attempts to rectify such situations.

Hat hier zufällig jemand eine Betriebsanleitung für einen Ford Escort "MK5" Cabrio Baujahr 12/93 rumliegen und braucht die nicht mehr? Das Internet ist da sehr schweigsam, teuer oder zwielichtig (oder mehreres gleichzeitig davon) und Ford selbst hat sowas erst ab 1997 (und dann auch nur für vereinzelte Modelle wie den "Ka") im Angebot. Ein Anruf bei Ford in Köln hat auch nicht weitergeholfen, die bieten offiziellen Support nur maximal 20 Jahre an. #Anleitung #Ford #Escort #Suche :boostRequest:

Hat von euch jemand mit dem #Wohnmobil Basis Fahrzeug #Ford #Transit Erfahrung mit #HVO100? Ich bin mir nicht so ganz sicher, ob ich das tanken darf. Bei #Eberspächer habe ich geguckt. Die #Dieselheizung müsste funktionieren

Ford motor company... went all in on AI and it backfired, costing them billions. They've admitted they mistakenly thought that introducing AI and feeding it their design requirements... that it would spit out good designs. They're now desperately rehiring hundreds of engineers after the company became the laughing stock of the industry... and the AI they've been using is to blame for the most recalls in US history... 51 recalls covering more than 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026. 🤔 😂 #Ford #NoAI

"Die große #KI-Lüge: #Ford stellt 350 Techniker wieder ein, weil die KI versagt hat" https://www.derstandard.at/story/3000000329214/die-grosse-ki-luege-ford-stellt-350-techniker-wieder-ein-weil-die-ki-versagt-hat Interessante Auflistungen in dem Artikel. Ich glaube, mir war das gar noch nicht bewusst, dass #Amazon seine Kamera-Shops von "über 1000 Mitarbeiter in Indien Videoaufnahmen manuell prüfen und Belege korrigieren" hat lassen. 🤣 Tja, #Disruption läuft nie sauber ab.

Replying to @designthinkingcomic@mastodon.social
@designthinkingcomic@mastodon.social @lisamelton@mastodon.social While cute, it's different from other coverage that described a better integration of the #engineers within #Ford. Basically, Ford is now valuing #expertise and this should be appreciated, not mocked. I like dunking on #LLMs as much as the next person, but negging companies that learn the correct lesson from trying so-called #AI is not the flex you're looking for.
