 === Doom (on custom Android) ===
-The video below is on a custom infotainment system, rather than the stock system included in the Mercedes (to my understanding); not sure as to how much was altered, but this is ultimately Android Doom running on a Benz infotainment system, albeit a non-stock one.
+The example here is a stretch, as the head unit being used here is an aftermarket head unit, which presumably runs some flavor of Android Auto which this person subsequently hacked. Nonetheless, it is a very interesting Doom port that actually uses the controls of the car itself to move the Doom guy around. Don't play this while driving...

-While requiring some disabling of certain Intel safeguards relating to the vehicle, it is possible to run a fully featured Ubuntu instance on the little console within a Tesla Model 3, plus potentially the Model S and Xs. The Model 3’s Intel MCU is known to be a lot more locked down, so this being done is somewhat of an achievement compared to other Tesla systems.
