Same goes for the idiots driving them here.

That’s the point, who needs a truck the size of a whole house.

Japanese pickup trucks have the same bed length as current American pickup trucks at a fraction of the size.

Hell even trucks from the 1980s - 1990s are a fraction of the size.

Flock cameras can also pickup conversations of people passing by, let alone the massive amount of other privacy concerns with these being owned by third party companies and how extremely easily hackable these cameras are.

IMO, I don’t see how people in Toronto can support these cameras, especially since Ontario in general had speed cameras removed, and those as far as I know were police operated.

TBH it would probably make more sense to install the speed cameras back, those only captured photos as opposed to 24/7 recordings.

Edit: Went down a rabbit hole.

Toronto’s speed cameras were owned, operated, and maintained by Verra Mobility (specifically through their subsidiary, Redflex Traffic Systems (Canada) Limited). This is a Arizona-based company. While the City of Toronto selected the locations and processed the tickets. I can’t seem to find any clear info on how the data was processed or how the system was secured.

I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t do that.

The question is do they have a Copilot?

Me checking in

Sometimes booking.com is so integrated that even if you do the booking directly with the hotel, you will be presented with a confirmation and charge from booking.com, this is beyond frustrating, to me at least.

Same experience here!

Had to go through the credit card company for a charge back. Took 4 months from start to finish to get a full refund.

This is not a “age check”, it’s a identity verification.

Wait so the “original” was targeted at children specifically?

I was wondering the other day if Lemmy or Bluesky have any algorithms that are actively trying to keep users engaged?

I guess I am on the “watch list” as my company uses multiple different VPN solutions so I can access work files cross offices and remotely when in the field.

Also, what about personal home VPNs where I want to route all my device traffic back to my home when I am out of the house like at a cafe/mall/airport?

Maybe one or two winters/seasons.

Don’t plug in a Ethernet cord, and don’t connect it to Wifi.

Now you have a fully functional TV screen that wont be artificially bricked with OS updates.

Get a dedicated “streaming device” like a Nvidia Sheild, Android TV, Apple TV, or Roku and you are good to go.

No thanks, not the distro I will be using.

Not sora its gone

I was not sure at first what kind of new sex toy I was looking at, but fancy urinals definitely is a winner.

Only? What about all the other right to repair and freedom of choice laws?

Imagine bricking a car because it filled up at a competitive brands gas station.

Honey I am going to do fill up the Honda and the Honda station!
