Zoneminder works with a lot of the inexpensive bullet cams (wires or no). It is pretty easy to make a cd for LEO if you need to press charges/provide evidence too.

Yeah, they do have anxiety issues. The school will also provide doctors for the diagnosis. Maybe my sample is small, but the schools I've seen are all that way.... And yeah, sheltered Betty/Bob are going to have a rougher time because they had helicopter parents and can't wipe their own noses. I'm not competing with them in the workforce so let them pay tuition to help fund others.

Been solved for decades with varying degrees of security involved--Knock Knock protocol can do this for ya. Other solutions are available too. However, VPNs are not hard. If you think they are hard, you shouldn't have anything other than an updated store bought fw/router facing the internet.

This assumes that folks are willing to let an AI/corporation keep notes on conversations about political views. Super sketchy.

A me2 we can all enjoy.

This is like using an electric heater to warm your house, which is orders of magnitude more expensive than heat pump technology which is well known and required to be used in many places. More interesting would be an absorption A/C that used the heat to cool a house or itself!

Yeah, taking everything as N's truth as the future for everyone, it sounds like a world where nothing is predictable or constant. This is all well and good for maybe software, but physical production, people, and design can't work this way. But I don't think the general public wants more than automated memes from AI. Maybe concentrate on that, because it is the killer-app for AI.

I resurrected some old iPod nanos and a shuffle. Added about $100 to my music collection and picked pile of new and old songs for each. Sounds better, has random plays, and I can keep adding. The 7th gen nano even supports BT headphones and has a lightning jack. Leave the music drama for the Internet and get back to just enjoying the music and funding the artists you like.

There was an issue with the server installer that required ps/2 mouse and KB (really just non-usb, but I digress) to complete, wonder of this is related? Seems it would be easy enough to craft an automated test on a hardware platform that could wall through an install on a few chip set revisions. It would cost just a few engineers.... Too bad they throw all that cost to the customers now.

Package managers for Linux already have a similar capability. It helps.

Content that doesn't come from vetted sources, e.g. folks I actually know, is so often scams or plain ai-clickbait... I miss having a 'latest' option where I didn't have to check dates to see if it was a recycled post or not. Just awaiting the next big thing that isn't metagoofle-microapple. But at least I can extend my surface win10 with my bing-points.

Audacity, pre spyware, makes child's play of splicing in a fix, compared to what we had to do in the 80's... but will folks bother?

For More ads. Looks like I better re-buy that cd organizer I got rid of a decade ago. Good thing I'm already proficient at replacing iPod nano batteries too.

Another issue is there is so much garbage cold calling going on and phishing via snail mail and otherwise that it is not really safe to talk to folks (or businesses) you don't already know and have met face to face. Things improve if I start the conversation, but I don't expect contact outside of businesses and even they have issues wasting time with folks that cold call them.

Sounds like they do need registration, insurance, and specific enforcement partially paid for by those fees for excessively powered bikes. Charge by bike weight as that's what drives pedestrian injuries and likely speed capability. Mandate lights and speedometers so they can comply with safety speed limits
