I moved over to TabloTV about 8 or 9 years ago. I got tied of fixing stuff when I would update something and Tablo just worked on the Roku without much fuss.

I’m still happy with and love the Tablo, but it’s no better than MythTV was, just easier to maintain.

It takes a vigilante to raze a village? That other way?

I started cooking, period. My wife used to cook, now I do. It’s weird, but the pandemic totally flipped our roles.

This is what I’ve done on my last 2 cars. First was a Leaf that I leased dirt cheap. The second was a used Tesla at more than 1/2 off. I’m looking at a truck now and finding amazing deals on the '23 F150 lightnings. I’d prefer a Rivian and I’m not quite ready to let my Tesla go, but soooooon.

Someday, the deals will be harder to find, but for now take advantage!

Not in any order of magnitude

I have to look it up every time, but this is always worth reading once a year to remind yourself:

No idea why you’re down voted for math :/

Check out WeBoost brand repeaters. I live in what used to be a rural area and when we moved in the cell signal was trash inside the house but fine outside. Put an antenna outside on the roof, ran some coax cable to the kitchen and mounted a repeater there. No issues. Works for all major cell bands.

Have you found any good private server sublemmies? Whatever we’re calling them?

I think you meant YAGNI, but I dunno, YOLO might be a legit strategy for you too ;)

I mean, I don’t disagree. I’d rather that too! But you’re arguing if it’s good policy to do this or not, that’s a different argument vs. whether they legally and ethically can.

I’m not familiar with Canadian law, but in the States, I can film someone without their permission in public. I can’t do certain things with that recording, but I can record them. In this case, I see it as just that. Recording, doing some instant analysis, recording non identifying metadata, and forgetting the recording.

That would make it gdpr compliant, at least.

It’s a public space. You have no expectation of privacy. It’s the same reason license plate scanners are a thing.

It’s the automated equivalent of eyes.

Everyone seems concerned about what it could be doing, not what it is doing.

I could sit next to a vending machine and make notes on the gender and sex of each patron for demographic purposes, nothing would be illegal.

Why? Well, that’s easy, I want to stock my vending machine in order to make money. Instead of testing different layouts which would take a lot of time, I could predict how well certain stock would do based on preexisting market research.

This appears to be just that, but with a camera.

Now, you can argue “but it could be worse”! That’s not a valid argument. It could always be worse for things you don’t know about. If it holds up to be true, as stated, it’s just what it is.

I can’t stop laughing at this. Thank you!

So glad 'flus left Indy. Those 4th quarter collapse were epic.

“Guys, let’s do something they won’t expect. Let’s play prevent defense and make sure they can come back to beat us!”

So true. That leaf was a nice car, but that degradation was terrible.

I’ve owned an electric since 2013, never run into a down charging station. Early on, I’d run into single chargers that were occupied, but that’s it.

Not saying it’s not possible to have a broken station, just never hit it. But I, like most people, charge at home, 95% of the time.

I drove a leaf for 3 years and it had 80 to start with and ended around 67. At the end, it was a pain, but didn’t notice until around 70mi range. Somehow, 75 would get me from home, to the airport, to work, and back home again with room to breathe. At 67, it was nail biting.

To the point, 150 is probably good for quite a lot of people.

I used it before and still use it. No issues with my $5 linode.
