At one point you could book early and get the emergency exits, which was a relief for me. Now you have to pay.

It’s closed loop.

That is getting pretty far behind unless you’re leaving yourself open to go back to Gitea. I think 12 was the hard fork.

It might be OK now, but for a while there before they hard forked, you set yourself up for issues if you updated majors without being aware of breaking changes.

Jesus fuck, this is the shit I heard back around 2006 wrt Facebook.

OK, that looks pretty rudimentary. No MQTT that I could find, no clue how or if it does object recog. Not very serious.

I’d forgotten about that one. I’m going to try it again right now. Thank you.

Any pointers on object detection with that?

Damn right. And the solution isn’t to substitute another unreliable trading partner like China. By all means, make deals that make sense, and I think for the most part China will keep them, until they don’t. They will always look to gain an advantage and wield the hammer when it suits them, including hostage diplomacy. I have more confidence in Europe, Indo-Pacific, and expanding new markets in Africa and South America.

But strengthening self-reliance and removing internal barriers can only pay dividends. And working with reliable partners that keep their agreements is the only way forward. The only thing that has long term value in trade is trust.

I’m not super familiar with the integrated one, but I think you can adjust confidence levels in at least one place. That might improve that. Or go back to Deepstack.

Try running a Deepstack container in docker and point the AI feature at that container. It’s much better IME.

Every year or so I try to go to Frigate from Blue Iris so I can get rid of my last Windows box. But functionally they aren’t in the same league. Just the PTZ controls on Frigate drive me back to BI within minutes, besides all the rest of the features.

Some day…

“Does he think China’s… going to buy his stuff? China is an entirely export-driven economy. So what did he do? He came back and said, ‘Oh, we’ll take their electric cars.’ I mean, is this nuts?”

The blithering idiot didn’t know that the agreement removed canola and canola meal tariffs, which vastly outweighed the minimal sales China is going to see from their EVs? I mean, the difference in the benefits is orders of magnitude in terms of dollars.

This guy shouldn’t be in charge of a lemonade stand.

If somebody with too much money pays more for a speeding ticket in Sweden, everyone here would be getting justice boners.

Maybe one person paying more means another person gets to afford it because the average price is the same or higher for the company to be happy with increased profits overall. Yah, yah, companies are never happy… but overall, if line goes up, there might be something to be said for those that can pay bearing the brunt of the profit motive.

Because that’s the only way that information gets accessed, right? Jesus, Flock has sales reps and the BD vice president accessing school gymnasium cameras in some US town.

Not to mention companies the size of Equifax get popped constantly, and with LLMs like gpt5.4 building zero days like it’s a todo app, I don’t think it’s hard to find reasons to just not have something we don’t need anyway.

I always think about the cartoon where they’re about to wrap some shitty legislation at the store for a gift, and the two wrapping papers are “Think of the children” and “law and order”.

That’s pure crazy talk. They’ll do you for that.

I think we can figure this out well enough that we don’t need to sacrifice everyone’s privacy to accomplish it in a way that’s uncertain at best.

For the record, I’m concerned about how all auto manufacturers surveil current vehicles. This needs to addressed with every vehicle, period.

While I’m less than happy about the CCP having access to that data, there’s more to be worried about domestically with companies willing to sell every brake pedal application, gps waypoint and interior camera view to companies that will use it against us here.

I did the Greener Homes grant thing, I was being quoted $25000 for a heat pump installation where I pulled a permit, bought the pump for 4500 and installed it myself in a weekend. Bought about $1000 worth of tools just to do the job, and couldn’t submit it for the grant because it wasn’t done by a company.

Fuck that bullshit, it was corporate welfare, not an actual attempt to reduce energy costs. Typical fucking Liberal smoke and mirrors bullshit that gives tax dollars to private industry.

Alta 3.9

My parents would drink that shit.

Because every time there’s an incident, it’s never the thousands of illegal guns pouring over the border that gets the blame, it’s somehow legal gun owners that need to pay a new price.

It’s like giving more money to cops instead of addressing mental health issues to stop crime. Dog and pony show.
