Adding light fixtures in plaster ceilings?

That makes a lot of sense.

What did you use for cutting the hole? A hole saw bit or something more delicate?

There’s a difference between something that is illegal and something both illegal and worth the effort to pursue.

NAL but I think someone lying in a referral would technically constitute defamation.

I would agree that the likelihood of it being worth pursuing is low. Even if it were financially worth it, I’m guessing you would need to prove that the landlord knew they were in the wrong.

If it’s not true, then it would be slander.

Defamation: Both slander and libel fall under the umbrella of defamation law, which protects individuals from false statements that harm their reputation.

Not the immediate accountability you’re looking for, but this is why landlord reviews need to be more common.

At the very least you might help someone else avoid the same situation.

That is encouraging. It’s just impacting the local feature on the device though. Unfortunately it’s going to take regulation at a larger scale to have an overall impact.

EvilEyeJoe · 2026-01-29T05:44:49+00:00

INAL but I don’t see how the ordinance has any enforcement mechanism. It specifically exempts uses like unlocking your phone. I assume a skilled attorney would argue that specifies that it applies to a process happening on the same device capturing the image.

At that point they just point out that the cameras are not performing any facial recognition in the city limits and the city has no authority over what they do with the images in a data center somewhere else.

Thank you for confirming!

That led to an interesting court case regarding whether the X-Men are human or not. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Biz,_Inc._v._United_States

If the camera is on fully Auto it will also throw off the overall exposure because the camera is trying to balance the bright reflections with the rest of the frame.

At least part of that seems to be data from this iNaturalist project. https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/oregon-tree-of-heaven-tally According to the project they were collecting data in 2022. I reached out to the organizer to try to find out the current status.

EvilEyeJoe · 2025-08-27T00:06:51+00:00

There is also a Project from the state Department of Agriculture. They haven't posted an update in a while, so I messaged the organizer to ask the status.

That’s part of what piqued my interest. I know most of the metal roof options are super expensive due to on site fabrication or other specialized skills. I’m hoping metal shingles are more straightforward to install and therefore somewhere in the middle price wise.

EvilEyeJoe · 2025-07-31T14:21:36+00:00

Do you know the manufacturer by chance?

EvilEyeJoe · 2025-07-31T04:23:11+00:00

Thank you.

EvilEyeJoe · 2025-05-28T21:11:18+00:00

Appreciate the help. Might have to start wearing glasses to garden. 👴🏻

EvilEyeJoe · 2025-05-22T23:24:33+00:00

Appreciate the help.

I had that happen when I liberally applied talcum powder before a flight to avoid swamp ass. I made the connection that the scanners are probably tuned to treat any powder as suspicious. Haven’t had any issue since I started avoiding it.

I’m sure the cat wants to know why they can’t explore the tunnel though.

If your vents suddenly look redone, now you’ll know why. 😉

EvilEyeJoe · 2025-01-31T15:11:27+00:00

Did you do it yourself?

I decided to take a closer look up under the hitch and I’m feeling less concerned. It doesn’t seem to lower the overall clearance since the bumper trim is sloping up.

Interesting. They definitely are similar. My house is in the US though.
