- Comment on Super Bowl Ad for Ring Cameras Touted AI Surveillance Network 2 weeks ago:
I mean, I work with security cameras, and I’ve seen the tracking they can employ now. You can specify a color of shirt and color of pants to filter results with pretty solid accuracy and follow a specific person, or vehicle, across multiple cameras. I doubt it would take much to add filter by skin color.

Expects utopian society, only watches first episode. Ignores every instance where things aren’t utopian / breaks rules.
DS9 great example of non utopia. Shit TNG had a ton of examples of how Starfleet isn’t perfect and there’s still political bs.

Currently watching in DVD quality and I’m enjoying it. Not a fan of upscaling, too uncanny.

You didn’t read the article and it shows.
I do commercial and government construction. I see this shit daily. I even work in electrical and low voltage construction, so yeah.

He doesn’t mention residential inside wireman anywhere in the article. He’s quoting someone who notes that skilled labor is moving away from complex construction project, such as multi family, to data centers. Multifamily is in the commercial sector rather than residential.
There are not enough skilled electricians and other specialized trade workers for both data center projects and other complex construction, Basu said, such as apartment buildings, factories and health care facilities. AI data centers tend to be more lucrative for construction firms, which relegates anything else to a lower priority.
The quoted person does mention residential, but attributes the decline in residential building to things like material prices and other factors. Lumber has been high for quite sometime which really impacts residential as they rely on lumber heavily for beams and framing, whereas commercial uses metal for beams and framing.
Basu said that a decline in U.S. manufacturing of homes, offices and factories would probably occur even without the AI data center construction boom, because of factors including climbing costs for building materials, zoning restrictions, higher tariffs and stricter immigration policies. But he notes that AI data center demand is probably worsening chronic capacity shortages in construction.

Well yeah, it’s right there in the first sentence
Electricians are getting harder to find, and some construction projects are on hold.
They’re talking about commercial construction. Because of all these data centers being built electricians are being moved around because of the money being thrown at these projects. Dallas has been a hub for tech sector projects for a while; because of all the new data centers being built in Texas there are out of state electricians coming in for these projects from neighboring states like OK. Funny tho, now that Oklahoma is starting its own data center boom, now electricians from OK would just rather stay there which is causing projects in TX to stall.

I mean, LinkedIn is like fanfic for people who like to lick corporate boot, so… idk if I see there being a federated version of that popping up anytime soon, considering the very anti-corporate views of federated platforms.

Tells you when a package arrived and when the neighbor stole it off your porch. Tells you someone rang the bell when not home and lets you remotely yell ant the door to door sales people.
I mean they’re useful, but I sure wouldn’t ever trust one connected to any sort of cloud.
I do have a UniFi door cam that records to a local hard drive. I like it. Ties in with my other cameras to watch my vehicle in my driveway.
- Comment on HAM Radio Operators in Belarus Arrested, Face the Death Penalty 4 weeks ago:
But the hobby has a long history of being attacked by governments in part because it is resistant to censorship. Amateur radio often works even if a natural disaster or political action takes down internet, cell, and phone services, so it is popular among people interested in search and rescue and doomsday prepping. Amateur radio has been used to share information out of Cuba, for example, and in 2021 the Cuban government jammed HAM radio frequencies during anti-government protests there.
