The smaller cameras can serve two product lines. Not at the same time though. One is live video, one is alpr. You will see what looks like falcons aimed at areas with no cars for this reason. Btw, all…

You can retrieve images with FOIA. You’re not going to see good images with faces. Some research done by others has uncovered a good bit of how they’re designed to function. They’re aimed to get a goo…

This is why the courts have not ruled it a violation. It’s not following you. Not literally taking precise measurements of your position. It’s not even you, nor could it be proven you are even driving…

The general public are not lawyers and will not always understand all the terms across the multi-page terms of service. For all intents and purposes. The customers “own” it. For a SaaS company. What t…

I think it’s a problem to not clarify what “track” means. Usually people are referring to and afraid of a system tracking their location, building a profile, facial recognition, etc. Yes the camera ca…

That wasn't the CEO, and "lie" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. A non-product person (CISO) was being asked if a specific feature exists and they believed it did not. Should they have s…

I think the biggest change I like to see is locking out users on suspicious activity, instead of waiting for police departments to police their own.

In comparison to what? Buyers usually want this to be lower. Historically quite low still.

When humans are involved, it's a given there will be abuse. There always has been and always will be abuse of power, in every single part of society where power can exist. The question becomes wh…

Although much less harmful than smoke, nicotine is still not harmless to the cardiovascular system. If the goal is public health, it makes sense to move the needle a little further and try to keep peo…

This might be shifting us closer to worse overall design/performance to accommodate swapability. The pouch cells are very fragile, with the phone itself being the physical protection for the cell…

Based on docs, correct.

They found a way to make money on it by putting a cache in front of it. Less load for them, better performance for you. Maybe you save money, maybe you dont.

Correctly identified with 100% accuracy. The author said they can't, but for me the mp3 versions have noticeable high frequency artifacts that make the recording sound slightly less clear. Using …

A good point, but if stress was your motivator, it might be better to work to reframe that and gain motivation through something else that isn't stress.

I do wonder if this is in part to Spotify educating people with their very much in your face notifications when you set your player to lossless quality mode. They inform you bluetooth won't pass …

This is a flawed methodology for measuring success. Solving a case isn't a single correct search. It's a tool, and a single case could have hundreds of searches associated with it. As more r…

Personally I store locally with a unifi system. Can’t they collect that footage with a warrant too?
comment
None of these agencies get your video data without your consent. The feature was designed so they have an easy way to present you the request for footage. Unfortunately a portion of the information ge…

Someone called my method “chaotic neutral” I try to start most days on my machine by closing almost everything I had opened the previous day.

We have variable speed limits on parts of our roads. People commonly exceed the stated limit by 20+ mph since they're used to "full speed" and ignore the instances where it's being…

Rolled oats tend to give me anxiety, notice the issue with other large amounts of carbs in the AM. Anybody else have that issue? I figure it's a glycemic index issue. I don't believe the iss…

Getting an e-bike has got me out getting exercise way more than a regular bike ever did. Being able to dial my effort up and down pushes me further, quite literally in distance and fitness goals. I…

I thought it was interesting to see this around late 2023. Walmart had said the noticed a reduction in cart spend by those filling GLP1 prescriptions at their pharmacy.
comment
I'd probably think people getting bills for hundreds in the mail is a good catalyst to take action on a speed camera. A camera that is used for serious crimes, not speeding, is not going to be ne…

>>>reports the data to a third party who can share it with anyone they want. This is a pervasive piece of misinformation. False statements only discredit you and others who choose to repeat i…

You do not want local govt each building their own “secure” system.
