Ring is owned by Amazon, and they never sell customer data, ever. Nest on the other hand is an Alphabet company, and that's their entire business model.

Decent quality security cameras like Axis, Pelco, Bosch, GE, and the like, will always follow standards because they're designed to be installed in a wide variety of professional installations. Yeah, they cost more than $20.

Speaking with 16 years of experience in the physical security industry I've only seen two manufacturers who really understand that security cameras should actually be secure, Axis and Pelco. Yes, they cost an arm and a leg, but this is one case where you really do get what you pay for. Neither one has much of a selection of wireless cameras, but for security you really should wire them in anyway and both have a large selection of POE cameras.

One thing that is generally left out of amateur installs is to set up an alarm if contact with the camera is interrupted (assuming your software supports it). Wireless cameras are easy to jam, and exterior cameras that aren't in a housing are easy to just plain steal. Another thing is to set an alarm on low battery (again, if supported).

For processing data, that's fine. Run the analysis of your test results twice, if they match you're probably fine. On the other hand IIRC the systems that actually maintain attitude and other critical functions are military-type hardened systems (they weren't that much more expensive at the time, unless it was the Pentagram purchasing them).

right, they modded me troll decade and a half ago here when I said the nations will fall apart, governments will fail, libertarian ideas will take hold. They are modding me troll today, yet it is exactly what is happening. It is possible that people are actually afraid that my comments will cause ot to jappen somehow should more people read them. My comments are not the reason anything happens, that is magical thinking by the fearful moderators. My comments are a prediction and the reality is moving in the direction of my prediction.

see, here nobody accepts my belief system, they have moded both of my comments as "troll", yet I never troll here, I always say what I mean when it comes to tech, politics and economics. To mode my comments as "troll" means to declare that I do not believe and practice what I say or maybe that I am trying to start some sort of a riot. The former assumes that I am not serious, the latter assumes that everyone reading these comments camnot engage in civilized discourse, it is disgusting really, that people deny others their intentions or agency.

any amount of government, all of it makes me sick to my stomach, that is all I have to say on the topic.

Correct, government shouldn't be running services, this is up to the private individuals to satisfy needs at an agreed price. Years ago here I said that at some point in the 21st century we will see collapse of the government structures, we are observing it now. The next logical step is to have all services, no matter what they are to be done privately if needed. This is what I am rooting for, I am hoping to see it in this life time.

fuck ruzzia, fuck all ruzzians and triple fuck everyone doing business with the. Hopefully their scourge of s country collapses and breaks into small pieces and everyone there gets ass cancer of the 5th degree and dies a horrible death.

Oops, you're right. Anyway, big die size = minimal bit flips.

Until they were finally grounded the Space Shuttles used 486 CPUs, mostly because the large die size minimized the issue of flipped bits.

I wouldn't expect the PR flacks who write press releases know the difference.

That works, until bean counting MBAs are allowed to control what should be an engineering process. In the case of the 737-MAX it was because the MBAs that run Boeing see programmers as a fungible input like aluminum, so any old programming team will do if the price is right. In that case the programming team which won the low bid normally worked in the financial industry.

Those guys were too expensive for Boeing's management, they've all been laid off years ago.

Also busses, tractors and combines and all sorts of farm equipment, everything that could be looted from businesses and homes was looted. Hundreds of thousands of children were kidnapped.

ruzzia is a scourge, always was always will be, unfit to exist on this planet.

Every time I say it here, I am moded down as a troll, doesn't change the reality.

One issue with germanium, and even more so with gallium, is the very limited number of sources for them. China controls over 70% of world germanium production, and well over 90% of gallium. Get dependent on one or the other for computing and you are thus dependent on China for computing.

I've worked in construction, restaurants, farms, retail and factories, all places heavily populated by the people falling in the lower half of the IQ scale. The majority of dumb people have no more imagination than a sheep, which is why they're also the core Trump voters.
