Wi-Fi jamming to knock out cameras suspected in nine Minnesota burglaries -- smart security systems vulnerable as tech becomes cheaper and easier to acquire

Jump

  • Yes. With WiFi cameras you don't need to run any cable, just plug in to the nearest power outlet. That's very appealing to people.

    • How do you tell the difference between dream and reality?

    Jump

  • Hah. Whenever I am aware that I am dreaming, I try to look in a mirror. It always does something weird. Like one time my reflection's eyes were shut. Another time the mirror was like a window to the real world where I could see myself sleeping in bed. That was trippy.

    I'll have to try looking at my phone.

    • What's some common knowledge that you just found out recently?

    Jump

  • I spent 30+ years thinking that a pony was a baby horse rather than a smaller type of horse. You know how cats have kittens and dogs have puppies? Well I thought horses had ponies.

    Even all the times that Lisa Simpson wanted a pony, I just thought it was similar to how a kid might want a puppy.

  • That's a cool quiz, and it's from 2022. I'm sure AI has improved since then. Would love to see an updated version.

  • I got a decent motion-activated trail cam for around $50. It has no connectivity, so I need to occasionally transfer videos from the SD card. Works great.

    • What is something you just learned, that you should have known for a while?

    Jump

    • Hydrogen locomotive

    Jump

  • You mean like electrolysis? That's already in use, and has been in use for a very long time.

    If you meant something new that doesn't require a bunch of energy input, then yeah, that would great.

    • Best reasonably-priced self cleaning litterbox?

    Jump

  • I looked into robots but decided to try a low-tech solution first. I got an Arm & Hammer brand sifting litter box for $20. I can clean the entire litter box in about 15 seconds.

    I have no need for a robotic litter box anymore.
