  • That’s a lot of words to say I’m being incendiary. Which I won’t disagree with but the post itself is as are every other comment I read before posting.

    The difference is I read the article and they reacted to a blurb designed to make them react exactly as they reacted.

    The thread is bait and I’m calling out people for being so easily baited and suggesting why I believe they are being baited, the incendiary part.

    Anyone is free to disagree but that isn’t what happened, instead everyone has made excuses for why their reaction was justified.

    This means I correctly predicted at some level why they reacted to the bait. So why am I the only one in the wrong here?









  • But the system she is developing does not use cameras and, instead, monitors crowds as anonymous dots on a map. Only when it spots a potential issue are CCTV cameras directed on the individuals, or security personnel sent to the scene.

    “Our aim there is to respect public privacy - so really understand that people don’t want to be continually monitored when there’s no need to be - but also make spaces safe,” she says. The process has undergone simulated trials and will soon move to tests in real-life scenarios.

    Either none of the commenters read the article or they’re all the type confused by women choosing the bear.

    Nothing but fragile male egos on display.

    Collecting data to allocate limited resources and you’re all acting like it’s a personal attack on your manhood with some are as an reason to lean in on their toxic masculinity.







  • it’s because every device connected to a cell halves the bandwidth available to each device, and after something like 30-40 devices the cell is full.

    I don’t know where you’re getting this from. There not how cells have worked since at least 3g, sort of sounds like how consumer grade WiFi hardware operates.

    Towers are designed with sectors that are directional and each can support thousands of devices but those can’t handle 10k people at a stadium.

    If you had bothered to read the article youd have read they are talking about how stadiums are now using distributed antenna systems (DAS), which is basically hundreds of antennas spread over the venue and fed directly into fiber. Each one is designed to handle a small section. The carriers do need to hook into the endpoint here so this isn’t something that can be setup on a whim.

    I don’t see it mentioned but there are also mobile units, cellular on wheels (COWS) are common one and they really easy to spot if know to look for them. Basically a cell tower on trailer that can use microwave for the back haul for when on site fiber isn’t available.

    If you end up at a venue and can’t get service it’s because the venue is too cheap to use any of these existing options. They could also be using some outdated antennas, LTE can’t handle as many connections as the new 5G stuff.
