Raspberry pi and motioneyeOS. Getting to a state where you have a live view of the camera shouldn’t take more than an hour.

If this is what’s scaring you about the death of liberty, then boy do I have a dumptruck full of passed acts and legislation that dwarfs this in comparison. Liberty died a long time ago.
Or the new Ubuntu Cinnamon
Meanwhile, in the UK, our towns are completely flooded every couple of months
Yeah, there’s still plenty of issues I have with my framework laptop, but I’m ultimately happier with it than I would’ve been will Dell, Lenovo, Asus, etc.
I thought the hardware term was called a “paper launch”
I have been using Linux since the windows 8 days, and still see no reason to return.
Not the collective ownership of everything, just the collective ownership (and eventual abolition) of private property, which differs from personal property in that they are assets which are used for the purpose of capital accumulation (e.g factories, real estate, farms, supermarkets, etc.)
It’s actually cheaper than getting an Amazon Ring too, provided you already have mains access from an existing doorbell, and a 3d printer on hand.
I have a pi zero running as a doorbell camera, alongside a couple more CCTV cameras, and a pi4 running in kiosk mode connected to my motioneye server displaying said camera streams on a crappy old TV in my home office.
Get a Pixel, Install GrapheneOS.

The comment at the time I replied said “how are things over there”, without the “in canada” bit.
I assumed that because he mentioned that he became a canadian citizen, that he was currently living in canada, and because the post is about a UK policy, that wanted to know more of what it was like in the UK currently in case he ever wanted to come back.
And while I am aware that we live in a parliamentary system, I find calling it a democracy, like most tend to do, is pretty ridiculous if we only get to participate in it for a few minutes every five years, and afterwards, whoever wins isn’t held to account when they end up failing in their duty to represent the people who elect them.
Did you receive an election ballot for either Sunak or Truss? 'Cause I didn’t.
Not spiralling downwards over here… plummeting.
Hell, we didn’t even get to vote for our last two leaders, both of whom did more damage individually than Thatcher.
As for the alternative when we do get a chance to vote, well they’ve abandoned just about every principle and policy they had now that victory is practically garaunteed, so they’ve effectively become diet tories.
Still a thing for some enterprise users… and the elderly.
I chose to use the copypasta because it does an excellent job at answering the question asked, ‘What is Linux?’.
The answer being that it is but one part of a complete OS, rather than the OS itself, and that if he chooses, he may indeed be able to incorporate the kernel into his own OS project.
Nobody said you have to use GNU, just that it’s by far the most common form in which a Linux-based operating system takes.
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
They still run ads, just less profitable ones since they’re less intrusive, aren’t personalised, and most never see them anyway because if youre on DDG in the first place, you’re also likely to be using adblock.
That’ll work too, along with any USB webcam
