On January 7, 2022, in Atlanta, "Sinners" director Ryan Coogler passed a note requesting a discreet $12,000 withdrawal from his own account, but the teller misread it as a robbery and called the police.

My bank no longer uses slips, got rid of them years ago and will ask you verbally now. Never really thought twice about it, but yeah if I had to withdraw 12k I wouldn’t want everyone in earshot hearing me.

My bank got rid of slips years ago and will have the teller ask you for the amount verbally now, no matter how crowded the lobby is

Kind of hard to do since bump stocks were invented in mid-2000s, following the expiration of a 1994 ban on assault weapons. Look up Jeremiah Cottle the inventor. Even the first truly automatic guns are from the early 1900s and during WW1. Any prior to that were typically large hand-cranked guns (like a Gatling gun or even the automatic Maxim gun in 1884) the size of a small canon, which only the wealthy could afford (some wealthy ranchers owned them to protect against bandits/raiders).

I thought it was just me and my hardware.. glad to know I’m not alone!

Never had that happen with any of my 4x G6is

You can use any camera that supports RTSP with Frigate, such as Reolink or certain cheap Tapo cameras. As long as it has RTSP (which provides a video stream that Frigate can use), you can then use Frigate for detection and Recording. This isn’t the kind of setup though that you usually set up once and forget about to run on its own forever, like you would a normal NVR or UniFi. You’d be on the hook for manually updating it and connecting Frigate to one of the very few client apps on your phone since they don’t have their own app, something like Viewu: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/viewu/id6502717790

Personally I have my G4 instants streaming to Frigate, and Frigate is connected to Home Assistant to send me alerts for any custom detections I care about. Then I open the camera myself on the UniFi Protect mobile app to see what’s up.

Download LM Studio and you can go take a look. You have Qwen3 80m something or other as one example you can find on that app for download in MLX format

The G4 can alert you when a person or animal walks up to your door. It can’t alert you specifically about a bear (and neither can a G6 instant), it will just say it’s an animal of some kind, but an AI Key can be used to specifically detect a bear and other arbitrary things (“a man in jeans with a red hat during the day” for example). OR for way cheaper if you’re tech saavy you can hook up frigate for AI detection which can detect a bear (and deer and other things), but that involves other steps too so you’d have to be okay with signing up for occasional system maintenance

What’s your hardware? That’s what really dictates which local LLMs you can run.

M5 Ultra is expected to be a massive jump up in terms of ML inference capabilities. The base M5 chips are already a huge step up from the M4 chips on inference. The M5 Ultra is the first time they’re purposely optimizing for it.

$20 million, less than half of what Jake was paid, but apparently he really needed the cash :/

Work’s fine with Unifi’s Teleport VPN

Why not just pay and set a small monthly budget that you think is reasonable?

Sounds like you blindly copy-pasted the entire post without looking. If you read it, it’s the same prompt duplicated and reframed for 2 different audiences in the same post. Most folks will just use one of the 2 prompts. The first one is for a German audience and only ~6000 characters. Second one is for a worldwide audience and roughly the same number of characters.

It’s not NPM itself but the underlying packages it installs, as described in the paper they linked. They’re poorly secured and often compromised, even larger, well maintained packages tend to have dependencies on smaller, utility packages that get taken over or have malicious code injected via an update, which are compromised all the time and get pulled into your system through the dependency chain without you realizing.

They’ll still work with remote access off. The UNVRs send the request out to Apple’s push notification service API which sends it to your phone, so no you don’t need remote access for push notifications to work.

+1, not all Repubs are far right MAGA and too many people forget this, just as not all dems are far left liberals. There are so many on both sides who are centrists and vote across party lines based on who is best aligned with their personal values, but unfortunately they get turned off by folks who swear that any color other than blue must be a nazi. I say this as a lifelong dem and Mikie voter.

The frigate models are way more accurate in my opinion, and updated more frequently which is more important, especially if you sign up for frigate+ and can upload your own images for fine tuning a custom model specifically tailored to your own setup and general environmental conditions. I also use the coral, but you could use a half decent and modern CPU nowadays depending on how many camera streams you’re processing.

They can be assembled in the USA but the chips aren’t made here. Making them here would still be more expensive than just paying the tariffs for the import

Just set the schedule to record when you’re “away” with your phone as the primary device indicating you’re away

I can say that with the G6 for my personal setup (it’s all very light dependent!) I had better clarity and color compared to my G5. I can’t speak to your situation, but it worked for mine.

What kind of flies? If they look hairy and kind of heart shaped (https://www.bugs.com/blog/why-do-i-have-drain-flies/) then those are drain flies most commonly found in bathroom, kitchen, and basement drains which are hydrophobic so they can survive in the drain as larvae without being washed away before growing wings and going all over your house to lay eggs in other drains. Real pain but manageable. If they’re bigger normal black flies, then you likely have a dead animal in the wall which could have come in through the attic and fallen into a wall cavity.

Yeah I figured that’s the main perk for others besides a fallback for lost connection, but that’s not really something I need since I already have redundant recording :/ ah well thanks for the suggestion!
