How is this funny?

Yeah those are the ones I was thinking of.

This photo perfectly encapsulates TWAIN in a nutshell.

They will run it at a loss until they can kill off game ownership, then they will force devs to run at a loss a la Spotify and fatten up their margins.

“Finishing” the war will destroy Russia too.

This is how ChatGPT makes a feature request.

I believe this is from a bathroom in Prague

But moving relative to what?

Maybe if you timed it juuuuuust right you could land somewhere on the planet as it orbits the sun and comes back to the same position once a decade or century or whatever? I mean I guess it depends on how you determine absolute location in the universe. Is that even possible with the universe constantly expanding?

Classy!

But is Blue Iris really worth dealing with Windows over? I think Frigate has pretty much caught up by now and is developing quickly.

Yeah webrtc is one of the best in this regard. Unfortunately I can’t display 4 of them on my kiosk tablet.

I don’t think you can do much past just display the live (usually somewhat delayed) camera feeds. If you have some external object detection, you could probably feed the detection events to Frigate. That would make it as efficient as anything you could do natively in HA.

All these shows are bangers, well done!

The economy as it is both provides and causes problems, but without the advanced economy we have today the majority of the world’s people would starve to death. And yes, technology can be used to bad ends, but I’ve seen a lot of applications of ours and mostly it’s just mundane “getting the job done” stuff that helps everyday people keep functioning.

Yes, there are evil people in my organization, but I feel like I’ve stood up for my principles where it counted. Yes I’ve been demoted for that, and I was much happier afterwards. Someday it may cost me my job, but I will keep losing jobs until I find one where I can be myself.

All things in life are a balance of good and bad, you just have to evaluate whether you are more on the good side or bad side. There are a lot of jobs out there that are just helping people do the stuff they need to get done, generally good. Yes some evil capitalist takes most of the profit and hoards it for their evil purposes, but for me it’s enough to know that I provided things needed by others and helped them to make it through their lives in some small way.

Hence why I’ve been at the bottom of the org chart most of my 30 year career. I moved up one rung once, but after I refused to do some shitty things to people, I ended up moving back down ;-). No regrets.

For me it was enterprise software

I mean every company probably has some bad effect on the world, but there’s also benefit. You have to weight the benefits vs the harm. I don’t feel like I have to be personally evil in my job or that it’s a net negative on society. I think things are better in the world because of my work. Not all things, but better on balance.

Nothing in here stating that that NATO was involved in a coup installing Yeltzin.

I hope so. Though I think the only way the threat from Russia goes away is if it’s broken up into smaller states which is unlikely.
