This is actually really helpful it makes your keys be wrapped in aluminum foil and that’s pretty helpful because it makes your keys be wrapped in aluminum foil
I was skeptical, but when i wrapped my own keyfob in aluminum foil, I discovered that not only was my keyfob wrapped in aluminum foil, but also there was a wrapping of foiled aluminum on my keyfob! Total success!
I do it with everything now, even potatoes.
Perfect for microwaving them to make a 1-day blinding stew
A little aluminum foil, a little keyfob, you could get a stew going!
Potatoes are such a good idea because you wrap them in aluminum foil, cook em. And then the foil like qualities of the aluminum pass into the potato so I eat all the white stuff leaving potato foil, so one can actually take the aluminum foil I cooked the potato in, make it into a ball, place it inside the potato foil, and then wrap the whole thing in aluminum foil making an aluminum foil potato wrapped in potato foil wrapped in aluminum foil!
Now you know what to make cherished loved ones for presents
Big if true
Isn’t there a thing where car thiefs use an RF booster to make newer cars think the keyfob is right next to the receiver?
Personally, I’d want an antenna on/off switch that gets activated by shoving it in the keyfob hole. Seems reasonably secure.
Maybe just use an rfid coil in the ignition and turn a key to start like immobilizers have done for like 20-30 years at this point.
Better yet use physical contacts in the key and use an on key cryptographic controller to do public key authentication.
That way key material never leaves the key itself after being manufactured making it basically impossible to steal the car without the key.
That also solves the problem of the dealership needing to continue charging hundreds of dollars to replace a lost key.
The solution to that is open source tooling to download backup and re-upload your private key material to a set of keys.
Doesn’t solve the issue of the key cut though.
Yes, but you can usually just disable the proximity unlock feature on the car itself if you are worried about it
They pretty much already do this. Most modern fobs turn themselves off if they’ve not moved recently, which protects against relay style attacks.
they don’t need the key fob any more.
Thieves can leverage the “Keyless go” or “Keyless start” technology to effortlessly steal your car. https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/thieves-steal-cars-without-keys
But does it work with the foil? We found lots of metal containers didn’t block the signal. Hell even a pouch advertised to do it still worked.
Thick metal containers with over lapping lids worked best.
I tested with bolt EV, 2019?, model, because while the keys are in my house they would still allow kryless start to my car in the driveway. 2 layers of crumpled aluminum foil worked to fix it from ~15 feet away
Heavy duty Reynolds wrap. Fold to desired thickness and you have to wrap it fully without gaps. You’re tying to contain light.
Metal wraps stops signals coming in, not going out.
“Steamed Key Fob” is one of my favorite gourmet meals. 5 stars, would eat again!
Must be an Albany thing
Does this one weird trick also melt belly fat in 24 hours?
Ozempic doctors hate this one hack!
“More and more!”
It was 2 lunatics, now it is 7.
Aw, it’s like a little candy bar you can’t eat.
“Big Aluminium” counts on conspiracies to sell, sell, sell.
The other day I saw a guy who had a little tin foil “folder” for his credit card. I guess he was trying to block criminals from getting his card number?

You can just hold your NFC phone with a payment app to someones butt & give yourself a few monies.
