My theory is someone fucked up. There’s literally no information that gives us any additional insight to what happened yet.

You have to balance the books somehow. I'm not saying "pay for forever wars on the backs of small business owners." I'd like to see a personal wealth tax of 80% of any wealth over a certain benchmark ($50,000,000 maybe?)

I bought the coolest, fattest USB-C cables, and I failed to read the description enough to hear they only support USB 2 speeds! They work fine for the specific use I have for them, but I wish I could use ‘em for everything!

Nothing matches the pinpoint of light dancing around that Vectrex provides. I'm not sure it's feasible to sell something based on vector graphics like Vectrex did, but it would be way cooler!

I love scoring games when I go to a ballgame. It keeps me engaged, and it's fun to see how I mess up compared to the professional scorers. Did you do MLB scoring? If so, do you do scoring if you see a game now, or are you sick of it? :

I have practiced "street photography" for years, where I purposefully take pictures of people on the street. Sometimes people ask what I'm doing, I tell them, and they say "cool can I see the pictures"? Sometimes I

I don’t think you’re a “dick” for politely asking people not to film you, unless you’re unnecessarily aggressive about it.

by op00to 1y ago
The evidence I present is that I have never seen someone complain about someone else filming in public. I’m not sure that the articles position on HN says anything about the majority opinion on a topic, only that it’s of interest.

Huh? Hanging clothes is absolutely accepted in the US. I have a clothesline.

Sure. They could simply ask you nicely and accept whatever the result is. This is the case now.

OP didn’t respect his fellow hobbyists by asking them to not film him. Why should OP expect respect in return?

You sound like you may need some sort of mental health assistance if you no longer leave your house, especially because of fear of some sort of global dragnet using Facebook videos that you may be present in. I hope you can get some peace.

It’s solved. You can take pictures in public in the US. That’s part of our fundamental freedoms.

I was part of a team ran EMail services for a ~15,000 person campus of a ~80,000 person university in the late 90s and early 00s. It was a full-time job for a team of people to keep things running, up to date, control spam, etc. It was a mi

I work directly with telcos. All text messages, calls, etc go through telco systems that are in data centers far from the towers. There is no benefit for one cell phone being geographically close to another to send spam messages.

You do not need to be within 35km of someone to send them a spammy text message.
