jeffhykin OP ,

[TOTP] Simple to setup / create, doesn't depend on 3rd party ...

Actually I'm worried its a bit TOO easy to create. I don't need a bulletproof/airtight system but what's stopping highschooler from installing bluestacks, downloading the AUTH app, and then handling 10,000 TOTP requests for different bot accounts.

jeffhykin OP ,

PoW sure, but like what's the tool name. Rolling my own PoW sounds not-smart. I've messed with metamask a bit but last I check isn't real practical for mobile.

jeffhykin OP ,

While I'm really glad to hear about it, I think it would work great for DDOS detection, I don't know that it works for preventing spam accounts. I'm pretty sure puppeteer with GPT4 could check that box no problem.

jeffhykin OP ,

I mean, manual approval technically does work. I kinda wanted something that would scale.

You should watch the rest, especially the ending, there are some great quotes in there.
"There's so much freedom in [suburb]. There's no shops, cafes, theaters, places to eat, schools, or even people. But uhh, that's all part of the freedom; you have the freedom to go somewhere better! like [15min city name]"

Opinion on modular vehicles with standardized parts?

I've started to hate SUV, MUV and MPV. I've been thinking about how buses may be an ideal transportation, but in reality, it will probably not be feasible to have an entire transport system running on buses, right? Maybe a bit of rickshaws and mini-taxis too? And also compact private vehicles?...

jeffhykin ,

I think once you get down to the size of vehicles like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2oD1ZHNMFE then they become naturally modular/replaceable. At least in the same way that bikes are. I don't think people really create "modular" bikes they are just naturally swappable. Of course standards are helpful, and I think there is a total lack of standards for golfcart sized enclosed vehicles.

Temple OS

It is a sad story. Keeping it in legendary meme status is the best way to remember it IMO.

jeffhykin ,

Fair, I did miss that requirement

jeffhykin ,

For standard notes, its got an auto-export plaintext file option on desktop. Were you wanting two-way editing of plaintext? (e.g. Auto export and import)

Go to the vendors website, and not only see hole for yourself, but look at them claiming to use AI to detect demographics.

PDF Link: https://a.storyblok.com/f/184550/x/e7435c019e/brochure-svm_generic-dark-netflix-ui.pdf

Their website: https://www.invendagroup.com/vending-machines

Here's my own screenshots in case the vendor takes their pdf down from bad press.

Its not really local only either, the cameras exist for the point of data harvesting, just look at their marketing. They only mean they're not streaming video to a server for recognition. The after-recognition data is still sent to a server

Unfortunately its got the hardware for it

It gets worse :/

I looked up the brand (Invenda). Their PDF includes "using AI", "measuring foot traffic", and gathering "gender/age/etc" e.g. facial recognition to estimate a persons age and gender

And in terms of "stored locally" this is straight from their website

The machine comes with a “brain” – Invenda OS – and is connected to the Invenda Cloud, which allows you to manage it remotely and gather valuable environmental, consumer and transactional data. The device can be branded according to your requirements to further enhance your brand presence.

The marketing also so fricken backwards that it reads like satire:

For a consumer, there’s no greater comfort than shopping pressure-free. Invenda Wallet allows consumers to browse, select and pay for products leisurely and privately 🤦‍♂️

jeffhykin ,

What really bothers me is the "measuring foot traffic". I already refuse to use vending-machines because of the pricing and unhealthyness, but you're telling me I need to make GDPR takedown requests just for walking to class?

jeffhykin ,

For now

jeffhykin ,

(After seeing your edit) to be fair, there are a ton of overblown hype articles that are actually built on nothing. The opposite side of skepticism (jumping onto the outrage bandwagon) is worse and more common than being skeptical. Its a shame things are not easier to verify.

What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?

A recent YouGov survey asked Americans what they think they should be able to get to within a 15-minute walk of their house.

Of these choices, I can currently walk to all of them from my apartment, aside from a university (no biggie, I'm not currently studying, although there is a Tafe within walking distance), a hospital, and a sports arena.

How many can you get to with a 15 minute walk from your house?

@fuck_cars

jeffhykin ,

16% said "should not" to a grocery store? What?

I feel like there should be a separate question for the "I don't want anything near me" rural choice, since those might be making the rest of the responses misleading.

jeffhykin ,

"The problem is that thousands of miles of guardrails installed alongside American highways were designed decades ago"

Ah, yes, that is the problem. Cars becoming heavier with little to no added value are not the problem, its the guardrails and not enough tax dollars being spent.

jeffhykin ,

IMO, you should be exempt. The vast majority of jobs don't require a truck, yet the F150 is the most-sold vehicle in the US. So you're in the minority.

jeffhykin ,

Might not look like it, but they're clipped in.

So you'd roll off the ledge, crack your head against the rock face and then bleed out, NOT fall to your death 👌.

jeffhykin ,

That's good to see a lot of the statistics are close, and I appreciate the sources.

That said, for a full picture, I think you should mention that the average 20 year old doesn't have 18 gunshot wounds (365 wounds per 400 per year, is about 9.1 wounds per person per decade, or 18.2 wounds per 20 years per person)

So I'd appreciate if you include a bullet point about that.
