Burp

All the AI generated websites are driving me insane. They just repeat the same thing over and over again with a bunch of useless text.

Same. People used low quality Ni-Mh batteries and got what they paid for. Eneloops have worked great for me. Believe it or not, Duracell has been great too. It’s the energizers that have all been awful for me.

It’s be way harder for me to go back to corded tools. Li-Po tools are incredibly convenient. I’ve been able to buy adapters for dewalt batteries that make them work with all kinds of tools and devices (including an adapter for a Dyson handheld vacuum).
Lightweight, powerful, and the batteries can be swapped (as well as a decent amount of aftermarket batteries and adapters).

That’s actually a fantastic use of resources. Their chillers probably work much for efficiently. It’s similar to traditional power plants.

It’s a double edged sword. On one hand, it’s a great tool to stomp out crime. It can save lives.
They used it in Iraq to find people who were placing road side bombs.
You could use it to find victims of kidnapping. Tracking murderers.
They’ve tracked criminal drug traffickers with it in Mexico. It’s extensively being used in the Russia-Ukraine conflict today.
It is stalking, but possibly unintentional.
The worrying thing is that this Information can likely be bought. Im pretty sure you can just buy satellite imagery.
It’s definitely weird af and most people wouldn’t be ok with it. Could a ban or block be even possible?
I know there are various laws that restrict or prohibit where you can point cameras. I used to install security cameras and it was a big no no to point them at someone else’s property, but I’m not sure if it was a law or not?
I guess I’ve just accepted it as normal. It sounds defeatist, but public cameras have never impacted my life.

“We’re supposed to be able to go about our business in our day-to-day lives without being surveilled unless we are suspected of a crime, and each little bit of this technology strips away that ability.”

Sounds nice in theory, but that’s not true at all. From my understanding, there is no expectation of privacy in public.
It feels really strange, but we are all under satellite observation almost 24/7. There are observational drones that can loiter and collect ground data. This has been around for decades. Radio lab did a great episode about this.
It’s definitely creepy. There is no escaping it at this point :/.
