Do you know what kind of sensors it relies on to observe its surroundings?

It's probably more than just this, but if anything audio related, you could try to come up with a poisonify device to fuck with it.

Might be more trouble than it's worth if you're not tech savvy, wish there was more stuff like this I could recommend.

ETA: Also wondering if something like a Flipper Zero or HackRF One could help create some convincing false-positives.

ETA2: read the replies to my comment, valid concerns regarding getting fired and/or throwing off the scent from yourself

Messing with company property is the fast track to getting fired.

Are you talking about a commercial truck or you personal vehicle? If it's a truck you drive as your job, you're probably screwed. I'd be pissed as hell, but I don't imagine there's much you can do other than quit. If it's your private vehicle, let me know the company selling it so I never buy one of their vehicles.

Quit. Let them know why you quit. You are a truck driver and can get another job within a week.

Crazy idea I haven't seen posted here, but hear me out:

Stop driving like a dick. Follow the rules of the road. Stop speeding. Stop swerving. Stop going over the lines at stop signs and traffic lights. ETC...

This will slow down the route by hours. That's the only way that they'll discontinue it, when they realize that it's making the delivery routes slower.

and stop driving like a dick, you're driving a fucking truck.

You trust some POS computer over a human driver? I don't. If the damn computer is so correct in its assessment, it should be driving. And, obviously, I know that's coming, but it's not here yet. It should be one, or the other, not a computer back-seat driver.

My company has their own llm now, what baffles me is they exposed the domain to the internet. Can’t wait for this to backfire.

Try to find the fuse which powers the device.

You're looking for anything related to radio or telemetry.

Push the fuse back in when you're done working for the day.

If they ask what was wrong, pretend you don't know what they mean. It's not your truck. Maybe they should have their technician look into it, everything seemed fine on your end.

What can I do?

Varies wildly.

Some people are in unions, others "at will" employment.

This is something to ask coworkers and hopefully a union rep.

Holy fuck you all are a bunch of callous assholes. Telling someone to "join a union" or "ask your union" about it are fucking mental. Do you really think OP is working a union gig or are you really that stupid to think you just go out to the union store and ask for one union card? How is this helpful to anyone who is in a non-union job working for a non-union company. I'll bet you all are the same people that tell depressed people to "just be happy." It's just useless, if not ourtright malicious, advice to give someone.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Well, if it is not helpful advice for OP it is not bad advice.
