Too late for me. It’s been fine so far, but I’m also not really using anything new.

I haven’t, but I’ve baked enough bread to know that sounds awful

Virtual Machine Manager is what you’re looking for I think

What? Mostly Why though. IDGAF about Where nor How in this specific case, I’m just so confused.

As much as watching everything literally burn would be exceptionally cathartic, it wouldn’t be useful. If you ask me, these CEOs and rich bastards can work X hours a week scrubbing toilets or otherwise contributing to society.

If you refuse to contribute to society cause you were rich and think you’re hot shit, then jail. Something like the minimum security prison in Norway where the point is rehabilitation. If you’ve committed war crimes or premeditated murder or otherwise genuinely can’t be offered even that much freedom, then real prison, but still a decent real prison.

Putin and his ilk are a different matter. What was good enough for Mussolini would be just as good for them.

This tech isn’t new, exactly, though it’s probably significantly more sophisticated now. I used to work at a company that used similar monitoring a decade ago. Theirs was (allegedly) triggered only by the motion of the vehicle, I believe DriveCam was the brand name. It sucked back then, I’d imagine it sucks worse now.

My guess with the reality of the situation is Amazon or their insurance company required installation of the cameras and a low-to-mid level manager somewhere noticed that singing was triggering them, so the manager told people to stop and eventually you end up with this news story. Amazon gets at worst plausible deniability and shitty things continue.

Why are you posting links to Wikipedia? I’m not particularly bothered, just curious.

Either OP is playing the really long game or they didn’t actually make this. The image is from Wikipedia that was taken by some dude in 2015.

Maybe not 40km, but still, are you absolutely sure about that?

If this counts as good marketing I’d advise looking for another career

Have you tried factory resetting?

That is an impressive grade of bullshit.

How well has that particular excuse worked with law enforcement in the past?

You end up saying something similar to yourself after you read and fail to understand a LKML archive because it’s the only available documentation on this specific flag that you may or may not need and if you don’t need it why not turn it off. Repeat this many times for much learning (eventually).

It was a great experience but next time I’m building everything not strictly necessary as a module.

Not now. Maybe it’ll be useful once the bubble bursts and a few actually decent uses for something that could actually run on a phone emerge from the rubble and actually work.

At the moment I’m not seeing a whole lot overall that actually works unless you’re an expert using it for science or something like that.

In my experience, a lot of “devoutly” religious people are like this.

I grew up Independent Fundamental Baptist (westboro, but less vocally homophobic) and my dad told me a few years ago he secretly kept a stash of alcohol in the garage while he was quite aggressively teaching that the Bible expressly forbade consumption of alcohol that could get you drunk because of a long argument that basically amounts to “Paul said so.” (The proper response to that is “fuck Paul”, obv. Paul was an asshat.)

You can twist anything into anything if you try hard enough, and they’re really good at it.

I tried Flashflood once. Their process is confusing and ended with a store employee being incredibly rude when it was Flashfood’s (and to a lesser extent the store’s) fault.

Decent concept in theory, terrible execution in my experience with that specific service. It’s so much nicer when the store just slaps a sticker on product already on the shelf and knocks down the price.

In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold,
Greater than the might of armies, multiplied a thousand-fold.
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
For the union makes us strong!

Fallout London mostly. It was a pain to install and it crashes occasionally but it’s so much fun.

Library that is also the first book in the Bible has 99.999% of everything I’ve ever looked for.
