I tried to use your platform but immediately faced a pay wall so gave up.

So if you don't have access to your phone (auth device) you will have a bad time?

Some of my wheelbases on some of my converted vehicles are not what will be stored on record (often the DVSA/DVLA provide the incorrect information especially for historic vehicles).

Worth mentioning AntiElitz too :)

Thanks for the wargerr recommendation!

Adding to the anecdote, OBS works great on Ubuntu.

I began this painful process just recently deleting the vast majority of my old videos. :(

I didn't make this, @mikesol did - I'm aware of it because he posted it to the Etherpad Discord :)

"Elon started Tesla to bring about the EV revolution." -- Nope.

1) He didn't start Tesla.

2) He only popularized it in the US. The rest of the world was already building EVs.

Britain being where the victims are, not the criminals.

Some reasons why Brits might be so so vulnerable:

* Major: English speaking so common to be targeted from less affluent ex-commonwealth countries.

* Major: Ageing population have most of the wealth.

* Major: Lots of vulnerable victims online and relatively high social media engagement.

* Major: Little fear of retaliation (other than Jim Browning). The UK is having less of an engagement in global policing (due to leaving Brexit) and has less reach as a consequence

* Minor: Degrading international relations. Less empathy shown towards Brits due to somewhat inward looking foreign policies over the past decades.

* Minor: Growing economic disparity causing a glut of "get rich quick" victims.

Honestly I think Jim Browning is showing how this problem is solved and is probably having a 100x impact over the average bank worker. The Banks should be funding him and others like him.

For those that don't know who Jim is, he does awesome work in identifying scammers and working with the local / relevant authorities into shutting their services down.

.com for commercial products & services.

.org for educational/community/collaboration.

So more of a focus on commercial products & services. Got it, wish the team all the best!

"The only way a small developer gets paid for a patent is by selling it to a patent troll."

There is another way. You can sell the company that owns the patent to a larger company (that isn't a troll). M&A's often assign a high value to IP...

Friends & Family might be a higher priority for them.

Linux on the desktop is pretty viable now, but yeah, still hard to convince the public without marketing shenanigans.

I like to think this case will call for reform in these laws.

"Williams was sentenced to 200 hours of unpaid work and placed on the sex offender register for five years, which damages her chances of getting another job.

Williams completed her community service in a charity shop, and having finished the hours the court ordered her to do, returned to volunteer further."

The US Gov holds ~$4Bn in Bitcoin alone. The Chinese Government ~$11Bn. Are they using these funds to undo the damage? That would feel like an obvious option.

I tried Shinobi but gave up, I even spent some time on bug reports/issues/with their community.

My major issue with Shinobi was each stream is processed by ffmpeg and I had 10+ cameras all requiring 10% cpu each to handle any object/motion detection. The cameras had object/motion detection functionality built in so I figured it made more sense to just do that work on the camera and not on CPU. I also tried offloading some jobs to GPU and that was not working properly, so I tried Nvidia Jetson and still no dice.

and surprisingly this approach works incredibly well from my personal experience.
