Right?! This stuff could be so powerful and useful, but instead everything needs to connect to some fucking cloud. If we had any data sovereignty, we could have all the cool stuff. Local processing with local data. No uploading.

Like making us batteries or slaves. Yea… Can’t have an ai save us from ourselves

0. A robot may not injure humanity or, through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Hell, that would motivate me to design a whole new plastic cover for the a pillar and remove the cameras entirely.

I’d have called an employment lawyer. That can easily be discrimination for some medical conditions like crohns or IBS.

I second this. It’s health and safety related. You don’t want to have it break at the exact moment it’s needed.

Life alert or something similar is the solution.

Except when most people make mistakes it doesn’t destroy someone’s lives. Cops need to be helpt at a higher standard. They wield too much power.

It should be structured so that they have to think harder about whether to wield that power in the first place.

Right now, they just get to arrest someone. Costing them potentially thousands of dollars, their job, their relationships, their car, or even their life. Cops shouldn’t just be able to do that much harm and then just shrug their shoulders and say “oops.” And that harm happens even if the case is dismissed.

I think your right. Even dumber then.

I don’t know why they keep using the idiotic looking down portrait of him for everything. He looks so insecure, like he’s trying to be tough and failing.

Cops should be penalized for citations and arrests that are thrown out or dismissed.

Make it mean something to them for when they get it wrong.

It gets more accurate with more access points, too. So corporate and education settings will be the easy places for this to get implemented.

Last I looked, jellyfin auth and public facing security were less than ideal.

How far has that come in the last few years? I have plenty of people using my Plex and it’s been secure. I had heard a public facing Jellyfin wasn’t super secure.

Honestly, 95% of the reason I use Plex is so I don’t have to manage user passwords and troubleshoot issues for my friends and family. I just grant access.

Republicucks always said they were fiscally conservative. It’s always been what they touted as a defining characteristic when you took idealogy tests.

Turns out, that was all lip service. At least for the last few decades.

In the US, a portion of that fine goes back to the police departments. Giving them a financial incentive to give tickets.

If the fines went to anything except the people giving the fines, then it could work here. But we were so stupid to couple the two in the first place.

Too close to the election! Meanwhile lousiana is like… Fuck that, we’re shutting down the election that’s already having early voting because fuck you.

That’s a good point.

Imagine just a script that randomly replacing various homophones like their, they’re and there.

Or has a percentage chance of swapping two letters because you types too fast.

Or just a table of common misspellings would be enough.

I’ve had my gfs accord emergency brake on me twice. One was coming to a hairpin turn on a mountain and an rv had pulled off onto a turn out for us to pass. And another was several car lengths away from a car making a turn into a drive way. Neither of which were even remotely close to an accident. It just freaked out.

And I’ve had tons of beeps for side streets with cars park along a gentle curve which the car doesn’t understand the fucking road turns. I HATE all the tech.

As if sex workers haven’t been historically used to gather compromising information and state secrets.

Benefit of pots is it doesn’t go out when the Internet does (unless your provider has a VOIP backend, but usually those would be more robust than your home.)

It also is a second source of electricity coming into the house should there be a power outage.

I kind of wish I could have an old school pots line, even though I run my own VOIP system.

They are hard to put out, but if you want them to burn all you really need is a safe place to do it. So in a big crucible with some type of fume extraction so they aren’t crazy polluting the air. As long as the heat has somewhere safe to go and there isn’t anything else to catch on fire, burning things is easy.
