Wait until you meet Coram or Other "AI" camera "enhancement" systems

Because, with just 2 eggs and a sausage they can fill a belly for 9 months.

Instead, and replaced EPA standards for greenhouse gases and burning COAL! Cool -__-

So, like a far left beyond DSA or something?

I'm sorry to hear. Not sure, but it's that all DNS services that have to block torrents? Can't they use a VPN?

If that outputs any sort out MAC address (hope to God not) I wonder if you'd be able to be scanned by Flock or Axis cameras with their BT/WiFi proximity scanning...

If I understand correctly, it would just broadcast those signals rally loud to overwhelm the listening devices? Guess I need to do homework. I'd hardwire mine to my car then.

I feel like a lot would live in disbelief until it got too close to the end. Some would still stay loyal to their bosses until the end. And yeah a bunch would travel.

I think something that devastating would be scary, IRL, because hitting the earth with that amount of force would probably have a shockwave at near the speed of sound if not more. That means most would never heard it coming until they're already floating or hurdling away from what was the ground...

If they were so sure, I'd quit my job to travel and do whatever the fuck I wanted, racking up as much debt in the process, not like creditors will survive... I'm going out with a bang, figuratively and literally.

F.U.C.K. SCROOGLE! I hope they lose their asses on this!

We need an acronym, like "Fine" (freaked out, insecure, neurotic, emotional) from Italian Job.

I responded to someone in comments on a post that may not get as much visibility, and wanted to share something that might help some others who are new or unfamiliar.

I referenced Quad9 DNS as probably one of the best private DNS you can use, Swiss based, no log, no tracking, no data to sell, etc. They also implement DNSSEC, DoH, DoT, QUIC, ECS (which you may or may bot want), malware blocking, content filtering, and maybe something else I'm forgetting.

Many DNS sinkhole apps, OSes, or systems can actually utilize Quad9 for your resolver while those systems also block ads. Below is my functional list of systems that I'm aware of, though I haven't tested everything. I believe all are considered FOSS, too. If you don't have a spare Raspberry Pi laying around, try running in HomeAssistant, Yunohost, ZimaOS (previously CasaOS), or others.

DNS sinkhole (Adblocking) apps:

  1. Pihole
  2. eBlocker
  3. Technitium
  4. AdGuard
  5. uBlock Origin

Feel free to comment and add your own I'm maybe not aware of. I'm no software engineer, but I can read through some code, though not an expert, nor have combed through these personally. Usually I've tested/run at the recommendation of others over the years before my ban on Reddit (for shitting on AI).

Hope this helps!!

I work in the recycling industry, we work with many other scrap yards and facilities, and as metals values climb we're finding meth heads and other druggie type people trying to break in and steal stuff to scrap elsewhere.

We've had 3 attempted break-ins in 4 months which is rather unusual, but I've spoken to another local company about their camera systems to see what they're using. Here is what they've used the last few months as recommended by another yard...

Unintentional ad: Coram AI.

So I do a little homework. They're really new to the market (2022), and funded by several VCs (booo). They're hardware agnostic which is nice, but if you know anything about 3rd party camera systems, they mostly cross-communicate over ONVIF or RTSP. They have locally hosted PCs or servers rebranded as Coram AI servers or you can go fully cloud. No pricing on their site, only "setup a demo" which sounds very "Verkada"ish where you'll endlessly be hounded by salesmen.

Anyone have personal experience with any similar company or system? We upgraded camera hardware a few years ago, they're UHD resolution, record to local storage, external access blocked, and license free. I wish we just went Ubiquiti in the first place, but I was trying to avoid vendor lock in because we were getting that with Verkada (before my start) and just had issues with that whole experience.

I know it's not "ai" in the sense everyone knows current LLMs, but it all feels very fake and is really just relying on frame and pattern detection to analyze stuff. The company who recommended (or the guy on particular) sounded like a stakeholder or higher up who doesn't understand it but praised it for it's speed at "producing information". I don't want a bunch of false readings for the sake of "fast" and I don't like the idea of a 3rd party having access or oversight to our facilities.

Title. Is the association legit? Reading through the privacy policy looks pretty typical, kind of surprised for a nonprofit they collect all that data, use Meta Pixel and Web Beacon.

Maybe the wrong place to post, but looks applicable.

Seems this is for One+ and Oppo, but with alt Android OSes like Lineage, would be nice to have it back and available. I'm too dumb to code and prefer not to vibe code it. Unfortunately, I installed lineage almost immediately when I got this phone, and am missing a lot of features I didn't look into until now.

Edit: since this was for Oppo, One+ received capability with an update, making me think this special protocol would work for anyone's device. No special hw required. Maybe there's a way to dump the app/feature files from a ROM to build into an app?

HOW do you guys tip in the US? Do you go by food total or bill total? I know it's frowned upon in other countries, I'm not here to question or debate that.

~~No matter how you split it, pre or post tax, the "gratuity" is much higher than it should be! The 18%is higher even than what actual 20% should be!~~

~~Pretax should be $14.26, tax included (ripoff) should be $15.44. So why is the "20%" up to $18.25?! That's a 25.5% tip.~~

For me, I tip "15%" but round numbers. The bill is $72, so I take 10% (7.20 but round up to 8 then add 4) which ends up $12.

If they were exceptional, I just go off 20% which is $16 by my method, and round the total to the nearest dollar... ~~but even that isn't their pretend 18%!! And technically my method is over 20% after rounding up. They're all just taking advantage of niceness and guilt for patrons having to tip everyone.~~

Edit: I fucked up being hung up on numbers, not realizing to the left was the explanation. 😅 OK, so just: how do y'all tip?
