Off-the-shelf, not that specific scenario… If your dog has a consistent space it pees, maybe. You would setup a camera in the room and define an area (basically draw a box around the rug) and further refine with parameters like “Between 9.0

Gas stations buy routine shipments of fuel with fluctuations based on the broader market. Renting out real estate is quite a bit different, you buy it the once and lock in customers… nothing stops me from going across the street for my next

Doing it the right way is, sadly, comically hard. Coming to the border, making a (legitimate|illegitimate) asylum claim, being processed, given a Notice to Appear, and being released into the interior of the United States is as easy as a $1

Pure speculation, but there is a large North Korean methamphetamine trade. Allegedly, per escapees, many North Koreans use meth for purposes of work enhancing stimulants and hunger suppression. Perhaps these slaves are being doped up to foc
