Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is the case. I have to believe that the police have much more pressing work than these small time thefts. I'm just trying to find some article attesting to that, not just anecdotes. But all my research turns up is stuff from camera companies pushing their products lol

They've had property stolen, and I'm pretty sure they don't trust the rest of the residents of the HOA

Yes! Thank you so much these are great points! And yeah, they are proposing Wyze cameras

Ugh I would have said this too, but the resident pushing for the cameras is offering to pay out of pocket

 

A new neighbor moved in and is really advocating for them, but I think most people in the HOA are split. It's come up after some recent thefts after someone left a garage door open. I'm thinking of organizing my arguments like this:

  1. Even with a camera capturing a thief's face, police are unlikely to actually catch the person or retreive the stolen property.
  2. Invasion of personal privacy, I don't like being tracked and my whereabouts being monitored
  3. Surrendering biometric data without my consent
  4. Police / ICE using the data without permission to harass our residents

How does this sound? It's so exhausting fighting against this. Does anyone have any other good points or articles that can provide support? Many thanks in advance

Yeah. Insane. Like taking out a mortgage on a house of cards.

Lol you are in for a "rude" awakening if you think the FreeBSD folks are any kinder

I love FreeBSD, I just think there's a pipeline from Linux not doing some things well

I've been using Filen for a couple months. It's good. Happy to live without in-cloud editing of documents for the price and privacy guarantees

Do you think that our current iteration of A.I. can have these kinds if gains? Like, what if the extreme increase happens beyond our lifetimes? or beyond the lifetime of our planet?

For a media UI, it was remarkably confident in itself. "Hey, I know I'm not showing you immediately what you want to see right now, but just hang tight and look at the beautiful background while you navigate. Look at these elegant Frutiger metro icons. Listen to the hearty clicks the bar makes as you flip through the categories. Don't worry, the joystick maps right onto the bar movement. You already know what you're doing."

Now it seems like UI's are embarressed to be on the screen at all. "oh, uh, I bet you wanted to see a picture of your game right? Or... netflix? Or... The store or something? Umm. Let me just give you all of your options in an order I think will be your 'favorite'"

Yeah. Adding new menu items looks complex, might require recompiling a custom retroarch build

 

I built a home theater PC and now I'm obsessed with getting an xmb ui on there. I know retro arch has a nice implementation, but I couldn't find any support for jellyfin or spotify menu items. Should I forge ahead and create custom ones? Does anyone know a better way? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

That's pretty clever
