there's one of these for literally every meme ever huh?

[-] PatMustard@feddit.uk 35 points 9 months ago

Given how long the xkcd has been around I think the car is referencing the comic

[-] sparky1337@ttrpg.network 8 points 9 months ago
[-] kspatlas@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Think they mean the specific comic

[-] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I'm almost sure they're procedurally generated for some time now

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 9 points 9 months ago

I knew I read it somewhere, it didn't remember it to be an xkcd comic

[-] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 15 points 9 months ago

It's even more boring than that - the license plate system already searches ambiguous characters. It's almost like this issue comes up even without people gaming the system.

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 9 months ago

Oh like so I bet

if license plate person thinks they have 1 on they plate {
  do check to see if it’s \
    actually == i
}

Something like that, yeah, I think the system automatically checks.. Although this has 8 ambiguous characters, so actually you could have 256 cars with virtually indistinguishable plates, which is a lot. I believe custom plates have an approval process, and I wonder if this would be part of it. Like, "Yeah, no more black lincoln town cars with all I's and 1's, something's up."

This is why I don't have a tag on my car. Can't track my license plate if I don't have a license plate. It's foolproof!

[-] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

This is even dumber than the morons who think any plate that's days "private" has any hope of passing any kind of check.

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 9 months ago

If all license plates said “private” or “1ii11i1i” they’d never catch us all
