…and that’s how it still works.

Considering those scanners usually register as keyboards and just do a dumb input “typing” it shouldn’t even be hard, lol.

The worst part would probably be picking a barcode scheme where the inputs make sense…

Protest votes are fucking stupid. They accomplish nothing. I will vote to keep trump out of office.

So you are voting in protest to Trump? :D Because that’s literally what you described.

Ah yes because the last ten times they did this it totally didn’t backfire and they had everyone else’s future in mind while selflessly giving up a lot of their own.

Oh wait…

Also, this isn’t even compatible with copyright law in some countries. I.e here you can’t give up authorship at all; you can only grant an irrevocable, perpetual license (that might even prohibit you from distribution yourself and such) but you’ll always be able to say “I made this” no matter what their license says.

Quite the irony; somehow not doing anything and getting people killed needlessly and destroying your own nation is an okay path forward, but trying to find a compromise that stops that would cost you your career… I mean, it’s not surprising, but also really sad.

Sooo they can bend the law and postpone holding elections, but they cannot bend it to hold peace talks? It’s just an excuse.

That sounds very illegal, yeah. You can’t advertise a price and then charge something different. It doesn’t matter that the person didn’t notice it. At that point you might not have price tags at all (which is also illegal, just FYI).

It generates code and then you can use a call to some runtime execution API to run that code, completely separate from the neural network.

Life isn’t a zero sum game where you have to optimize material wealth. Some people do things for others just because they like doing it, because they have the means to do so, or because they simply want to help others.

Sure, there are costs involved, but that’s true for literally everything if you account for opportunity cost. The vast majority of people choose to waste time completely unproductively, with no objective benefits to their lives (often with objective disadvantages), so is it hard to imagine that some people aren’t like that and instead choose to help/provide for others whole perhaps having some other non-material benefits like learning something or just becoming liked within a community?

Except you aren’t questioning anyone’s views, you’re making an argument that barely touches the subject it responds to. And doing so in a very argumentative and condescending way.

So yeah, it doesn’t really belong in a civil discussion.

A precise android version could for example be used to target you with an exploit for that version.

I agree with OP, it shouldn’t behave like this because the expectation with screenshot software is that it doesn’t add any metadata and if it would it should be explicit and probably opt-in.

Security is always applied in layers. If you aren’t inconvenienced by it, it’s a really solid layer to use. Doesn’t matter how ‘paranoid’ you are, it’s a good strategy.

Their quality is adequate for the price and they are open enough to be used with any NVR.

If you are worried about privacy you should segment the cameras onto their own network (VLAN) or at the very least block them on the firewall from accessing the internet, which you should do anyway.

On the contrary, it’s the only comparison you can make, since they are literally the only options.

…and there is no way to do that, currently.

That’s not something that’d likely scale enough to bring any meaningful sum of money.

Even then it targets a tiny, tiny minority of their even current userbase, let alone if they want to approach more “average” users.

Anything that can compute can do it. The important part is that it has an associated non-insignificant cost.

They’re two separate(ish) issues.

But it’s still a bad idea to use national TLDs for stuff that has nothing to do with that nation.

Granted, is ICANN wasn’t just a money-grabbing machine with no forward thinking they wouldn’t give nations clearly “generally desirable” gTLDs, but since they did already that doesn’t mean they should be misused.

I had a similar issue and in my case it ended up being some AMD crap (I think an updater or something) that probably didn’t install properly or something.

IIRC I just ended up disabling the scheduled task that was running it and that was the end of it.
