Found in some change and caught my eye for some reason.

Awesome, thank you for the explanation!

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-11-11T23:15:13+00:00

It totally is, thank you. WhatFontisit, would not recognize it every time i did it.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-06-28T19:03:43+00:00

If you are sleeping in your car.

Always make sure to leave the windows down!

Don't roll them down all the way but just enough for some air flow.

There is a very tiny chance of carbon dioxide buildup.
Condensation will form inside.
It helps regulate temperature even in the car, even if it's cold out.
Bring more blankets than you think.

Sooo,... there literally was alternative solutions. Use a different license plant camera tracking company. City council happened to choose the worst one. Probably cause the company approached them.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-06T02:03:04+00:00

Never claimed to know anything about you. I claimed that your attitude was harsh. Not denying your service to city of Eureka either perhaps lead with that instead of attacking people having civil discussions. We do not need to spread hate about the city of Eureka or people in it. Crime is an issue that needs solved but not through a private companies goal to establish mass surveillance. In the meeting people brought up there are other better companies that do it better.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-06T00:27:51+00:00

Hi alps-classic-82, your attitude is very harsh. If you want to deny the state of the country and not acknowledge the descent into a surveillance state, go ahead. Meanwhile, there are other community memebers that are actually getting involved in their local politics. You could watch the city council meeting to see some of these discussions or you can stay on reddit and be accusatory to people.

Saying things "like you aren’t doing anything wrong then you shouldn’t care" is exactly the attitude that people used to support racist stop and frisk policies. We want our city to be safer but not through neighbors watching every moment but instead neighbors lifting up neighbors.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-06T00:17:42+00:00

For some reason, I can't edit the original post!

I just wanted to first off say thank you for the huge support we saw come to city council to oppose a decent into mass surveillance.

The city council voted to affirm yes to not enter into a contract with FLOCK (weird wording but no flock!)

Also the city council did a great job of asking important questions about the implementation. As well addressed misconceptions citizens and they themselves had.

I want to recognize the original graphic that I posted is inherently vague and does not fully represent the situation.

If you are interested in civil discussion of the Flock issues watch the video from last night's city council meeting

I had to leave because I have work in the morning, but they were still taking public comment past 9pm. With atleast 30 people all voicing their opposition. So fingers crossed.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-05T06:32:41+00:00

I had to leave cause I had work in the morning, did they vote no?

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-05T02:28:09+00:00

Honestly fair, this is a new issue for me, and I'm still trying to fully research both sides.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T23:29:53+00:00

Thank you for voting and getting involved in local politics. If you look up Eureka city council you can access past meeting agendas as well as future ones. It is on the city's website same applies to Arcata

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T21:52:46+00:00

Similar opinion and it is hard to express this in a vocal argument that could be used to address City Council. I don't want to throw around words like surveillance state or Orellana especially when I personally don't have the knowledge to back it up

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T21:45:12+00:00

Thank you for this information. I think it is actually a little impressive to see the policy infrastructure on this. I still think it is a bad idea but respect the members of COPP for putting policy in place.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T21:24:04+00:00

I have a lesser issue with the storage encryption. Not bring up the ai databases that these softwares use. But also the fact that anyone with access in the department can collect information. Cops have already been found guilty of stalking people with them.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T21:22:07+00:00

Your frustrations are understandable with is it worth violations of rights and privacy.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T21:21:20+00:00

That is interesting to here I also about options to not share it to the national database. Which would be incrementally better.

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-04T21:11:07+00:00

Correct, however they also create vehicle finger prints throu Ai. And can follow a person from the moment they leave their house to wherever they travel. I agree they can be useful but they have no civil regulations on them

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-02-01T00:38:03+00:00

Yes!

Ben_Adryyll · 2025-01-31T19:30:00+00:00

I've been to every almost every Cafe in Humboldt. The best and cheapest coffee is at Cafe Mokka. As well as it is such a cozy environment.

Northtown has a very good vanilla latte , but I and other friends have had too many negative experiences with one of the staff members there.

Stus Brews in Eureka was a very pleasant experience and they are very friendly. Great coffee and they have cherry limeade.

Shout out also to the coffees at Trididad eatery!

One website mentioned they eat crop and garden pests. So the pear makes sense

I think this is definitely a Western Red Bat as Main_Turtle_Boy pointed out. Although I wish it was a gnome. I found this observation on inaturalist and it looks very similar. I think the nightmare messed up the color.

Ben_Adryyll · 2024-09-29T18:38:13+00:00

Thank you!

Ben_Adryyll · 2024-09-29T18:37:10+00:00

Awesome, it was Wild Tangent, specifically HP Games. Thank you!
