it uploads data

… So. To the internet?

simple to do on device

Image recognition is not computationally cheap. There are more and less expensive ways to do it, but the absolute floor of it turns your phone into a hot plate. So whatever’s in there would need to be at least a phone chip.

someone needs to check

So it is kept and stored.

pre all-this-shit

Red light/speed cams, triggered on motion sensor boolean when light red or radar speed reading>x.

You don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, which is fine, but why are you speaking confidently and assuming such good will about proven constant brazen liars saying they’re not doing the shit they literally always do?

and don’t store/index footage otherwise

How do they manage that, with the current surveillance regime? Is all the image processing on device? What’s it sampling against? How does it send the tickets? One-way infrared flashes?

Find a flock employee and place its favorite pet around its house.

Same way your mom does.

I was describing a fiction novel from 1993 that every Facebook product is based on.

if everything else about it weren’t a nightmare shit show

Nah. Secret methods and parallel construction are the norm. What’s up here?

It didn’t model convection at all.

I’m a pervert and I’m right there with you. I have destroyed three pairs of these so far.

Not true! You could be a freelance CIA agent/pizza delivery man and world’s greatest swordsman (despite having never been in a real fight)

Shut this might even make me pro-war

Do you mean worker owned? Because that’s better than union and what you get if you start from scratch.

The correct answer is write one that benefits you and say “well I would like if you used this one, but it seems like it would be very silly of you to do that. You should get one from your legal department if you want one that benefits you.”.

The thing is: that’s my favorite part about it. I’m sitting at a keyboard for five hours, then I spend a week building shit with my hands-not low level building shit, but still fun, then I’m talking to grandma doing troubleshooting.

If everything else about it weren’t a nightmare shit show where you’re the devil if someone else fucks up in a year, I’d be very happy in that kind of career.

Yeah, pedophiles. That’s what the other fork in this thread said.

You have to get at what profit is, so it’s getting real people to live lower qol with less future and less say in that future.

Do they get around this, though.

Okay but it not being this way might invalidate some of the power structures that enable billionaires to have separate dungeons for the children whose blood they steal and the children the fuck.

Do you really want peter thiel or bill gates to have to fuck their blood boy? Or get blood from a kid they’ve fucked? That’s really upsetting for me to think about. Like I had to take a minute after typing that.

So why are they tipping their hand now?

We need a workaround for this.
