I've done essentially the same thing before (using my existing Go2RTC and Frigate setup) but the challenge I ran into is that the microphones on my cameras just aren't very good.

The second bullet point, down to the comma in the middle of the sentence, is what has been driving me absolutely batty of late. It's a surefire tell that I cannot seem to beat out of my outputs. It CONSTANTLY does it, even when you say

This is probably the most pragmatic take here and the overall responses support it. There's a handful of practitioners who are seeing some implementation success. They probably had significant domain expertise and are several iteration

Years is literally just the plural of a single year. Ergo, years feels like the appropriate word here. What are you suggesting they phase it as instead?

Was this with the little turle as your cursor? Seeing the "older" kids who could manipulate that program/language to make stopmotion movies might have been the moment that set me on the path of "technology enthusiast&quo

I honestly don't know how you put a cone of silence around congresspeople such that insider trading anywhere in their sphere of influence is impossible. My intent would be to make it difficult for the congressperson to directly benefit

Agree -- strict term limits would be a gamechanger in a lot of ways.

I have a hot take on this that I think could actually make some headway: - We raise the congressional salary. Say, maybe double them across the board. BUT in exchange, you, your immediate family, and any business, LLC, or other similar ve

Cool project. I've done something similar using defunct crypto Awair AQI sensors tied into Home Assistant. They have an LED panel in the front that can show overall AQI or any of the pollutants they track: https://www.getawa

Even mundane recordings become interesting to me once enough time passes. I've watched a bunch of Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network programming from early days and to be honest, the commercials are more interesting than the cartoons bec

>so we'll probably never see them digitized That seems to run contradictory to the author's claim in the article and what I believe to be true about the internet archive. Can you elaborate?

That can be a noble goal, but I wouldn't be so hand-wavy about how people understand words and their meanings. I'm firmly in the camp that the mRNA covid vaccine was a wonder of modern science, and on the whole it had net positive

This was one of my (as a layperson) irritations with this process. Words matter -- the fact that this was rolled out as a "vaccine" gave a lot of people the initial impression that once they got the shot, they'd be immune. My

This is what I'd like to get to - I think I would be bored stiff being fully retired, but I don't want to need to work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. A day or two would be ideal. There are numerous permutations of "FIRE&quot

I logged in just to respond to this - I could not disagree more. FB's faceted search is truly awful. I regularly search for specific items on FB and get totally different results if I run the same query multiple times. Sometimes, I&#x2

What temperature kills these amoebas? I use tap water, but I bring it to 203 degrees F (and let it cool) before using. I can't seem to find an answer.

Unpopular opinion - avoid taking VC cash at all costs?

Bingo - you hit the nail on the head. Keeping the investor pool small and close-in is how you avoid this. If you go public, eventually you will succumb to this "growth above all" mindset, even if your culture was set up to resist

This is refreshingly pragmatic. I guess I shouldn't expect anything less from that part of the world.

I don't think there's any particular malice to the ups and downs - it's just the nature of work these days. Employers and employees have pretty much laid bare their view that the other is simply a cog in their machine. That

I’d not seen it widely enforced before this year, but on several recent flights with several airlines (including United) the gate agent has had to turn people back to wait their turn. I’m all for it.

I agree with this. Sadly, many of the internal recruiters got let go in the last year, so I’ve been seeing fewer and fewer out there networking.

I don’t know to which “they” you’re referring, but anyone who is focusing on singular years is missing the point. The point is (and should be) that the climate is changing rapidly. Some years will “feel” normal enough, even as the change ba

I think most people operate under the presumption that both parties are acting in good faith. Obviously, there are instances where that isn't true. Choppy economic conditions lead to both sides of the table bending or even breaking nor

Perfect example of the whiplash one can get paying too much attention to these kinds of studies. Last month it was that any alcohol is bad, this month it's good for my gut biome. Personally, my sleep is too dramatically impacted from b

Last I looked, the entire Green Bay side of Lake Michigan (from Green Bay up to Escanaba/Garden area) was under a PFAS advisory, as was the south western 1/3 of Superior (from Duluth to the Keeweenaw). The stuff is everywhere. At

History has shown that it is difficult to hold parties liable because they find creative ways to eschew the obligations via spin-offs, bankruptcy, or both.

We've had perfectly serviceable non-stick cookware for ages - carbon steel cookware treated properly easily replicates teflon with a little oil or butter. Before someone claims to the contrary - I basically only use TWO pans now for al
