Ah lovely to see this. This article was the inspiration for me to automate the process, add audio recording and build a sound localizing audio recorder. All the steps in Austin's nice article I've automated into a single install s

Totally agree. Plus it adds stress to us old people who have been using egrep for years. “Why they wanna go break all my shell scripts ?”

I very much object to this suggestion. Removing a file is no more evil than creating one. It’s just a computer operation. I would be very irritated to have to type in full the other option. I suggest that the requestor pay a penance by typ

Sweet! If you are prepared to spend more for more GPU compute power from Jetson SBCs you could use larger models. I’m busy adding the https://www.deepfaune.cnrs.fr/ model to my security system software https://gi

As software makers we can also apply pressure to governments through the software we make. Local government too often simply sighs off on what Brussels proposes. They don’t seem to realise that bad laws need to be rejected. Software makers

Nice to hear! I can be reached on the wildlabs.net community, love to hear how you get on and help out if necessary. I'll be writing some more in depth articles on how it's used. But that example on github is essentially the resul

Cheap Raspberry Pi based Sound Localizer. It was initially just going to be a sound recorder but then I discovered that by adding a GPS to it I can make the system time accurate within less than a microsecond of error. Then after hearing so

They were nice shops. Before that in Auckland we had John Gilberts electronics. Dick Smith's increased the availability of what you could get by quite a lot.

Well, if the food is actually being eaten, then that's actually a win situation for people eating fresh food and hence overall "good" from a benefit to the people perspective. So long as this situation continues, which is whe

Oh, and the Netherlands also holds provably completely sham court cases where the authorities pervert the course of justice in order to shutdown repercussions of criminal activity that they have been involved in.

It's not just the UK. The Netherlands is like that as well and it's lost it's democracy. They can now hack anyone, not just criminals, without a judge being involved or even any evidence. They can shutdown speech that they do

Lots of typos in my text above sorry for that. But an important one, the RIEC is formed WITHOUT a human person as a representation and under Dutch law that means you cannot take the organisation to court. There's jurisprudence establis

Absolutely correct. The media part is the sad part, they simply won't print stories about government abuse of power and violation of human rights. If they did, then there would be some possible final accountability, but within the medi

First of all you are assuming that the laws themselves are obeyed by the government in the Netherlands. They are not. All of the written guidelines are simply ignored. No one checks that they obey them and no one can getting any consequence

Nice that you should say that :) I also wrote a home automation system. Well... actually, it's a kinda burglar alarm except it's focus is alerting way ahead of actually getting inside. I added home automation bits (minimal) just s
