They are typically at least 2.85in in diameter, not 2in. They describe them on the sales receipt/contract.

Maybe not here, but post the location to a group of antiflockers, suggest it's pointing at a home and shouldn't be, suggest maybe it should be removed.

You can stay pretty anonymous.

There are those of us who wouldn't mind just quietly popping by a week later and taking care of that for ya.

If any are close by it certainly might get done.

Seems most people vote their feels or their chosen clan... Whoever they think they get along better with socially.

It seems few people seriously assess a politicians job qualification or work hisrory.

Heck, my SO just lets me do the work, but I refused to just let them copy my vote. I write up paragraph summaries for each candidate then a blurb explaining my choice. They can disagree if they want, it's okay. I don't look to see how they vote, or ask, but they basically tell me they trust me and just wanna copy me.

It's honestly pretty upsetting.

And I bet one partner in most relationships just does the same, or votes party line, or just generally doesn't give a hoot but votes anyway.

Anything that is just local hardware can be saved or copied to an encrypted cloud drive of your choosing, via VPN if that's what you want.

You don't have to use a security cam system that hosts the cloud storage, or acts as a middle man between you and a live feed.

There are local systems that can host remote access portals too.

These things existed before things like ring or wyze...

I have no problem with being able to verbally ask a computer to do basic useful things, it's a far more advanced PC-human inferface than the computer mouse...

But beyond that, meh. I get how it can be used by science to solve complex issues or analyze large datasets, and that's cool, but I don't need anything on my PC more calable than an aide that can set a timer for me, or thereabouts.

If it can't already do something with way fewer errors than people, than it shouldn't be doing that yet.

If it can, then we might as well put it to work.

We didn't build stone tools because our hands were good enough, or bronze tools because stone was good enough,...

Isn't a published book 'media saying something'?

Jerry rig door sensor.

Probably against the rules, but I'd do it anyway.

"The name "Zoox" is a reference to Zooxanthellae, a marine organism that, like the Zoox robotaxi, depends on renewable energy and is able to maintain a symbiotic relationship with organisms in its surrounding habitat.“

Actually kinda cool, but appropriately dumbed down to be usable in modern coversation, "hold on a sec, my Zoox just pulled up."

Funny, the statute $2500 should be for the circumvention act, which was likely singular, not per file obtained during or as a result of the act. And the $150k is ridiculous in and of itself, even if for all files obtained. What a strange world we live in.


Spotify built a system of control in order to profit a few at a cost to many, perhaps everyone else.

Someone broke that system in order to benefit many, possibly at the cost of some of their ability to profit from their system of control--if they didn't lose customers, or prospective customers, they didn't experience any financial loss, or a loss in their ability to maintain their system of control (which is still very much in place and working).

Either way, nobody was hurt.

But the person who acted selflessly to benefit of society in general is punished.

Because... We, as a society, celebrate and work effortlessly to maintain complex systems of abuse in order to satisfy our greed or the greed of others. All despite being taught in school not to lie to and bully each other, and to share with and care for each other.

As a species: We are bat shit fucking crazy!

Certainly comparable... Less instances of murder, less direct impact on accused social justice offenders, more impact on fellow victims of accused social justice offender.

Likely not as well thought out action, more emotional reaction.

Certainly comparable.
