They've fixed that in later models, disconnecting the module disables the dash now. But don't worry, the FTC is out to protect you. Their settlement with GM says that can only sell your name attached to zipcode resolution location

You can improve interpolated search by monitoring progress and if it's not converging fast enough, alternate with bisection steps. (and, as clear from the article, switch to linear/vector scanning when the range is small emough).

Perhaps you saw the news about GM reaching an FTC settlement because they were tracking the locations cars they made at all times and selling the information to LexisNexis. You might have left the articles with a belief that GM agreed to s

Maybe put the probe on a spring loaded linear sensor, and move down until it hits a target offset (could just be read by a simple flag in an optical sensor)-- resulting in hitting a constant target force.

The model card doesn't mention if this revision will continue to make up and fan vicious conspiracy theories like the prior one does. I've getting a small but steady stream of harassment from mentally ill people who get spun up on

Yeah, silly less than stupendously rich people-- who do they think they are? trying to have confidentiality. ha.

It's not just ICE that can abuse subpoena to get your data-- scammers and other fraudsters can file a federal lawsuit against a bunch of John Does and then run around issuing subponea for records to attempt to uncover their identities

Thanks for this comment-- I had a similar thought and couldn't have expressed it as elegantly.

There are several different kinds of asbestos and they differ radically in their level of risk and the worst kinds are not (generally?) found in California. So that signage might just be out of an abundance of caution. I wouldn't be s

Alternatively, you could leave California and avoid a whole host of bad policy and legislation. Not that advocating is bad but of the two options one is guaranteed to be successful while the other is unlikely to help.

We're unprepared to deal with world wide 24 hour media. With 350 million people even extremely rare and weird failure modes will happen often enough for the media to fearmonger a big chunk of the population into falsely believing they

With most of these things, people are for state power until they are victimized by it. It's a common pattern. :D I've had property stolen. Cameras generally won't help, and didn't help. Limiting ingredient is often not

by nullc 6mo ago
IANAL, but if you are to take action it might be most prudent to do so non-destructively. Putting a bag over the camera/solar panel or taking it down and returning the lost/abandoned property would leave it disabled just as well.

Alternatively, one could create serious civil damages for those capturing surveillance imagery that causes various harms including false prosecution for any data they collected, even if it was unlawfully taken or used after it was collected

I am somewhat skeptical that either the ACLU or EFF are effective organizations for this cause. The ACLU in particular have drifted significantly from a civil liberties focus, and EFF's privacy track-record for corporate run surveill

I don't agree that requiring a talisman is irrelevant-- ineptly drafted laws will lack them and fail more easily. The legislative effort to add it may not happen later, especially once judicial review has spoken negatively of the unde

I dunno, I think it should be legalized and operation of a car or other heavy machinery while intoxicated should result in a swift and brutal public execution. Win/win. :D But maybe I'm just a little jaded after having lived in a

Thank you for your work here. Overcoming the argument that a threat of prosecution doesn't create standing is a huge advancement for the cause of freedom-- in light of Babbitt the state never should have been arguing otherwise nor sho
