They went even further and called it terrorism.

I've been getting them over the last week or so on both Chrome at work (Ublock lite) and Firefox at home (UBlock Origin). It's just a popup telling me adblockers aren't allowed and then a second smaller popup saying something to the effect of "loading issues?" with a link as the video delays playing for a few seconds.

This mentality that 'we' can support major atrocities, corruption, and outright garbage behavior while pretending to be 'the good guys' is what let fascism take hold. When you're willing to sacrifice all your ideals and principles just to win a contest, it should be a sign that you're off track but some people want to double down on this thinking it's somehow going to make things better.

It's so funny that at any point in recent history, it's always liberals telling progressives that they're causing division and that it's always us who need to come over to "your side." Meanwhile your ideals keep costing us elections.

What does overthrowing the government have to do with anything when we're discussing corruption within the government? They're referring to MAGAts telling themselves that Republicans being in charge means they're going to take down "the deep state" but then nothing happens because it's all fantasy bullshit to earn votes. Democrats are guilty of the same thing.

Cool, let it slide and then before you know it you're supporting atrocious things like genocide because "the other side are monsters." Imagine if that happened.

I wound up switching them from "automatic" to "live view" and now they display live images which seems better than snapshots updating every few minutes.

I'm not sure if it was an artifact from my previous configuration as Frigate added all new entities for the cameras, unless you mean some sort of bug with needing to wipe the whole card and start fresh rather than just swapping the entity IDs from Dahua to Frigate while retaining the same card.

Yeah the rapid pace of technological innovation these days is really astounding at times.

I broke down and googled it and it's a reusable menstrual cup, so I think my guess was the closest.

Depends on how far you throw it.

That doesn't really answer the question and also introduces issues with situations like Bambu's Creator's Program (or whatever it's called) where you can pay the model creator for the rights to sell the item. I don't see why they need to target 3D prints specifically when Etsy is absolutely chock full of similar duplicates in other mediums. They're just going to drive people away to a new site, which is fine I suppose, but seems incredibly short sighted.

Like a Frisbee?

I went through the exact same situation with my 20 year old music collection and MusicBrainz Picard and unfortunately this is just the state of music piracy even now as things are rarely tagged correctly or come from compilation albums, sample albums, or are just obscure and don't have the proper tags available on the service. This is why I don't mind paying for music streaming even though I selfhost most other media formats because you can put in days of work tagging songs and still have a jumbled mess at the end (Picard's tagging template is also a huge PITA to use with some obscure legacy language).

How do you prove you're the creator of a model without directly handing your IP over to this company?

there's a psychological war going on and this is exactly how the war is played out

This is literally the tag line for InfoWars, except their followers don't realize Alex Jones is openly admitting that he's manipulating them with this statement in a fight against some make believe boogeyman.

Probably not much of a difference. These mini PCs can run at single digit wattage too and you won't be buying new SD cards every 6 months.

The market is about to be flooded with them with Windows 10 going EoL in October.

I bet you could instead use an ESP32 for GPIO and just connect it remotely to whatever Pi alternative you use (if needed at all). Turning some switches on and off while monitoring input values doesn't sound very computationally intensive.

I think this really depends on the model they're eyeballing because the Pi5 is frankly ridiculous for the price and has absurd power requirements (5V5A USB?). I wouldn't recommend one of these unless you have a specific need like a certain hat or the GPIO pins. You can get a Dell micro Optiplex for less money and have a full fledged i5 or i7 processor with similar power usage.

Plus the RPi Foundation exposed themselves as the greedy bastards they are during COVID which is yet another reason to turn your back on them.

For something like a Pi Zero, maybe go for it, but there are similar devices out there from other companies too.

I think Gene Hackman gave up acting because of the dementia. He acted til he was nearly 75 years old.

Even as far back as Fire Marshall Bill?
