Now that facemasks are normalized in the American public, surely this tech is pretty inert now? I imagine people will start wearing their masks for any cold or flu, not just COVID, like other countries have been doing for years. Any would

Throw in a face mask and this tech is all useless. Especially now that we’ve normalized mask use in the U.S. for probably any cold and flu going forward.

Not only that, usually cctvs have a tv facing the entrance with the feed and a reminder that you are on camera. This on the other hand, is Orwellian in comparison.

This sort of thing is a little perverse imo. I don’t think anyone should be punished for stealing food, that’s a crime of hopeless poverty. My roomates were broke in college, spending nearly all money on rent and school. If someone wanted

I don’t think any of those store cards actually require you to register them.

You can actually follow hn, reddit, and even social media with some tools on RSS. I have a vote and comment threshold for HN threads for my personal feeds, for example.

While thats true, I can’t imagine the slow bleed that ptsd from working 50 hour weeks of stress can do to the human brain. It would be a surprise if you retired and weren’t screwed up after decades of that imo.

The noise is by design, signal is drown out, by design. The last thing the ruling class wants is for the working class to put down their idealogical arms against each other and unite around shared economic interests. A poor white Republican

I do this because its cheaper. Taxes are another 30% in CA and being a medical patient is virtually meaningless anymore. I buy on bang for the buck alone.

I’ve been hearing the death bell for RSS for over a decade and here I am not noticing any difference in the quanitity or availability of feeds. RSS is no longer mainstream and deep into the nerd territory, but claims about its death have be

But the thing is, it’s not dead nor dying. I don’t think very many major websites have stopped their rss feeds. Maybe it’s just you that isn’t using it. There is rarely a webpage that I find that can’t be followed via rss, either natively

How is the behavior in et compared to setting up a no kill signal from your ssh config? Sometimes my no kill signals get killed after a half hour or longer.

Clips from my friend in Goa show the street scene hasn't changed. People still loitering and buying things in the open air and forming dense crowds. From the clip maybe less than half had masks. Super disappointing and concerning. Thes

Took a month to get my debit card from the state and they sent it to the wrong building. They aren’t taking calls or emails. Luckily the incorrect recipient walked it over to my apartment otherwise I would be completely out of luck. The sys

You cannot generalize the culture in investment firms to other businesses. Very toxic working environment for everyone involved.

When you look at abandoned towns over the last century, it wasn’t due to overbuilding of roads but from some local employer moving away. In this case it doesn’t matter if you have 6 lane highways or dirt roads if no one is being payed to li

In the 1940s sweaters were american made, did not cost $400, and the median american had more disposable income than now. The people who benefitted from outsourcing were those buying shares, not sweaters.

Maybe they shouldn’t be in business if they can’t hire the engineering to do the job. Every other discount broker seems to have no problem hiring this level of talent.

I wish there was some mechanism to pay for websites out of your monthly bill. You pay x for internet, and y% is proportionally used to pay for your visits to websites a,b,c. You wouldn’t have to pay to host your site or worry about it boggi
