Know what the lesser evil is?
Evil.
In the last election we had the choice to endorse a Republican genocide supporter, or a Democratic genocide supporter. I chose not to endorse any genocide, and voted 3rd party.
People who work for me are building what I am telling them and they are getting paid by our clients. They can definotely choose to do what I chose back in 2009, stop getting paid and work for themselves, all they have to do for that would be the same thing I did, save for a few years prior to that and live on savings while building their own thing. Why should anyone else pay them to do what they want without their ideas being actually useful to anyone? That is what governments do now, they tax everyone to subsidise government employees salaries and pensions. I would rather pay for services that I choose myself than have money taken from me by a force that I never chose myself (not once) and have that force spend my money on things I am opposed.
Someone here on SlashDot was insulted for saying they weren't going to cast a vote for president in 2016, and they replied, "If two people are sawing off my legs why do you think I should embrace the one who's doing it slower?" This is why so many people don't vote, the choices aren't worth bothering with.
Oof, I thought that Clinton had demonstrated conclusively that Democrats can be every bit as evil as Republicans, they just smile at their victims instead of twirling their mustache.

That should get you started.
Food cooked with open flame acquires tastes from the fuel. We've had pollo a la brasa (Peruvian roasted chicken) from wood fired and gas fired ovens and we liked the wood-cooked one better. (Grimaldo's in Cusco, same owners of both places so the recipe was the same.) I have no idea what flavors coal might impart, but it doesn't sound appetizing.
Sitting in a cafe in the city of Mykolaiv right now, everything runs on generators. Earlier today, around 7:45 local time a few shahed drones flew over the city, this was after a lqrge attack from about 6 hours prior. Multiple energy distribution systems were hit in multiple regions. There were people killed, some drones hit homes, there were myltiple kinjal (dagger) missiles launched from mig-31 platforms. I crossed the border to Ukraine over 2 weeks ago, spent a week in Kiev, a day in Lviv, a day in Odessa, etc. Everywhere there are issues with energy distribution. Where I am now there are issues with watwr as well of course. People keep going because tbat is what people do, nobody here wants to give up anything to ruzzia, they want to stop the war in a way that prevents future attacs from the scourge that is ruzzia. As to this lawsuit, it is completely justified but it is not enough. Europe is giving ruzzia more money every year in oil and purchases than Europe spends on this war, given tbat Ukraine is protecting Europe from putin taking this war further west, I find this behaviour atrocious.
Sounds like he already blew most of the money, there isn't enough left to buy a pardon.
It never ceases to amaze me that these morons somehow think they're going to get away with the dumbest frauds imaginable. Yeah, I know every criminal on the planet thinks that he's smarter than the police (and the majority of them are, or else crime wouldn't be a viable career choice), but do you really think you're smarter than mega-corporation accounting departments? Really? That's a whole new level of delusion.
China has several thousand robotaxis in service right now, the US is well behind the curve already.
Hope Google makes Disney and the whole IP ecosystem eat humble pie on this one. It's like saying you owe Disney for watching their movies/cartoons and learning something from them. Get bent. Pay for the viewing and whatever lessons I extract from it (even if I learn to draw some of the similar characters) are mine. Same for AI. This needs to happen. Google is worth 3.8 trillion right now, Disney under 200 billion, shove a bit of money down their throat to set a precedent so nobody ever tries this again.
I don't recognize that name, but I retired a few years ago and haven't really kept up with changes in the industry. Question out of random curiosity, do they have a tool for managing very large numbers of cameras? How long do they support their cameras? When I left only Axis and Pelco did. I updated firmware on ~15,000 Axis cameras in my spare time over about three months, some of them almost 10 years old, and a former coworker did the same on 1,400 Pelco cameras across an Endura system in a weekend.
Don't install a Ring camera in your meth lab. Duh.
They want to monetize your data.
Ring is owned by Amazon, and they never sell customer data, ever. Nest on the other hand is an Alphabet company, and that's their entire business model.
Decent quality security cameras like Axis, Pelco, Bosch, GE, and the like, will always follow standards because they're designed to be installed in a wide variety of professional installations. Yeah, they cost more than $20.
You must realize that the computer has it in for you. The irrefutable proof of this is that the computer always does what you tell it to do.
