There certainly would be a market for a network camera ecosystem provided by a company that people can trust. I don’t think it has to be all or nothing, plenty of people really are in no position to self-host.

I’m not sure if there is anything out there that regular consumers currently could migrate to in case they want to get away from questionable companies. There are completely local systems (local recorder, no remote access), but those are lacking the home automation features / notifications, and well-respected brands that have been around (let’s say, Axis?) that are still closed source, not cross-platform and with pricing often not aimed at end customers.

I didn’t check out this project, so I’m certainly not saying this is it and there habe been various criticism of this particular project here, but I’d love if a decent project would emerge in the space.

Would you consider using a managed cloud solution + app if it’s open-source and properly end-to-end encrypted? How would a hypothetical company have to behave to be trustworthy, while still being allowed to profit? People here seem to like e. g. tuta.io for encrypted mail, I don’t see why a similar model could not work for network cameras.

These are genuine questions btw., I myself am really annoyed at the status quo with its data breaches, blatant lies to customers about encryption, and corporations willfully cooperating with fascist governments by proactively providing video data. I’m not even going to talk about AI training.

😂👌

This is nonsense. The documentation is readily available, and it takes arguably less time to provide the code to write a single, proper file than to create 50 desktop entries.

This is just ignorance on whoever wrote that part of Krita.

… such as?

Wait, there is an audio book version of this?

I’d argue that you see a lot more people having no clue about audio and doing a podcast / stream use the SM7B.

I mean, Lua is a pretty “interesting” choice for that application, but don’t blame shitty coding practices and inexperienced coders on the language.

The gigantic loop could have been cleaned up with a table, registering handlers for the individual cases.

Lua is probably not the best choice for a web service, but it definitely has its applications.

They are launched sequentially, but run simultaneously, yes - at least some of them. And they run concurrently but not in parallel - using a single execution context, there is only a single thread, so no parallelism exist.

It’s not the TV settings of the poster that inspired these articles:

While some movies were not graded perfectly for some home screens, shooting darker movies has definitely been a trend, sometimes up to a point where it is indeed impossible to actually see what’s happening, and a lot of people complain about that.

The output is sorted due to the fact that for each number, a timer is started that prints out the number after waiting a number of milliseconds equal to said number.

Therefore, 1 is printed first after delaying for 1 millisecond, 5 is printed second after 5 milliseconds etc.

Oh, definitely. Shrooms and LSD are an order of a magnitude less trippy than DMT. I would not classify it as terrifying though.

I guess it depends on the definition of trapped. Let’s assume we strip trapped of its negative connotations and take it to mean time stretched to an almost infinite degree.

The real cringe is using passwords instead of keys to login.

Is it actually Bulgarian though?

Thank you. I’m so incredibly tired of propaganda guilt tripping consumers to feel personally responsible for issues that should be regulated and fixed by a competent government.

Many places in the world mandate expiration dates on food items, no matter what the item in question actually is.

Water in a glass bottle? Expires in 24 months.

Thanks, I knew the art, but never bothered to make a note of the artist.

I’m absolutely in the market for a new image viewer. One with a sensible gallery / (sub-) folder view.

I’ll try nomacs out today.

I was not ready for how many stock photos they produced.
