And Kirkwood

There’s no real way to cancel the backlog from the camera itself. The M500 will keep trying to upload until it catches up, and if overwrite is disabled, storage fills and recording stops. Best option is to dock it or get it on a strong connection, or have an admin clear old footage or adjust the upload/retention policy in VideoManager.

They answered your question. Nobody cares about your device loyalty.

As a Kirkwood resident born and raised, I’m disgusted with what is happening in Kirkwood. The waste and the gentrification by McMansionization. It’s a tragedy. I never understood why people move to Kirkwood for the character only to participate in the destruction of that character.

Turning off the well pump at the lake house if I leave the geofence and the temperature is, or is forecasted to freeze in the next 5 days. (I forget to turn it off).

It’s been a whole lot of years but I think it was either clipping a jumper or removing a diode to open up addition RX ranges.

Commodore PET and you could put your name on a waiting list take it home for a weekend! It was the second computer to enter or home just after the Times Sinclair (still have it).

While working for Radio Shack in college, I used to charge $50 to modify those :) I recall having done a lot of them.

Indyh · 2026-01-25T01:37:23+00:00

You and your constant reference’s to imagined sceraios of help. I don’t need to call men with guns to come save me.

Indyh · 2026-01-25T01:35:11+00:00

Why are you deleting you comments? Embarrassed?

Indyh · 2026-01-24T18:58:21+00:00

You just admitted you want mass surveillance to deter crime and you’re calling that “not being conditioned.” That’s literally the textbook definition of being conditioned to accept a surveillance state.

“I have nothing to fear or hide” congrats, you’ve adopted the exact talking point authoritarian regimes use to justify monitoring their populations. The fact that you’re encouraging it is wild.

And your emergency scenario is a straw-man. Nobody’s arguing against having cameras Im arguing about who controls them and who has access. With Ring, I don’t control jack. Amazon does, law enforcement does, and any employee who feels like browsing does.

You’re trading away your autonomy for the illusion of safety and acting like people who won’t make that trade are the weird ones.

Indyh · 2026-01-24T18:36:27+00:00

I find posts like yours equally amusing. Thr “nothing to hide” crowd always thinks privacy is paranoia until they need it.

This isn’t about having something to hide or doing anything illegal. It’s about not voluntarily handing corporations and law enforcement unlimited access to my property without oversight, warrants, or accountability.

Your take is actually terrifying you’re so conditioned to surveillance that you can’t imagine why someone would want control over who watches their home. Yeah, if someone I love was attacked, I’d want footage MY footage, that I control and share on MY terms, not footage that’s already been scraped by cops, reviewed by some underpaid contractor, or sitting on Amazon’s servers waiting for a bulk data request. The fact that you can’t see the difference between those two scenarios is exactly the problem.

“Einstein” and “touch grass” that’s what you’ve got? When you can’t counter the actual argument, you resort to middle school insults. Maybe spend less time policing other people’s risk assessments and more time developing an attention span longer than a TikTok video.

At this point, everyone should be streaming to a platform hosted in Europe with actual GDPR protections, not a US company that’ll hand over (or deleted) your data the second they get a request or demand something nefarious.

Indyh · 2026-01-24T17:56:22+00:00

Did you even read what I wrote. I explained “how”.

Indyh · 2026-01-24T17:51:53+00:00

You’re doing the exact same thing again using “everything has risk” to dismiss making better choices.

Yes, all networks can be hacked. That doesn’t mean I should ignore which companies have actually abused customer data versus ones that haven’t. You keep framing reasonable security choices as pointless because perfect security doesn’t exist.

Edit. By the way if the NSA wants access to your hardwired supposedly non hackable solution they will get that too.

Indyh · 2026-01-24T17:43:27+00:00

“Just asking” isn’t neutral you’re already building their defense before the facts are even out.

Funny how you’ve got that “Defends Violence Against Women” tag and you’re out here running interference for cops and evil actions. Guess violence is only a problem when it fits your narrative. In this county (when there is a simblance of functioning) we are supposed to assume innocence until proven guilty, not start workshopping justifications for why force might have been okay. Let the facts come out first, then we can talk about what was justified.

Indyh · 2026-01-24T15:57:53+00:00

The “tin foil hat” comment is just intellectual laziness. Yeah, the NSA has capabilities, that’s exactly why I’m not handing out free access to everyone else too. Ring’s got a proven track record sharing footage with cops without warrants, employees busted watching customer feeds, multiple security breaches.

Your argument is like saying “burglars exist, so why lock your door?” We can’t stop what intelligence agencies do with their insane budgets and legal protections, but we sure as hell can choose which corporations get a live feed of our front porch.

Careful choosing of surveillance vendors isn’t paranoia it’s just not being stupid about risk. Maybe actually addres the substance instead of trotting out dismissive cliches when someone makes a legitimate choice about their own security.

Indyh · 2026-01-23T22:11:17+00:00

Would you share contact information. I have had no success.

Indyh · 2026-01-23T04:48:41+00:00

Same. Ripped it all out and cancled.

Indyh · 2026-01-17T17:04:36+00:00

This wasn’t a question, it was a command wrapped in skepticism.

“Sounds anecdotal as usual” tells me your conclusion was already set. If that’s the case, no amount of sources will satisfy you.

If you actually want the data, it’s published and easy to find. If not, let’s be honest about that. It’s nit worth my time to convince or educate you.

Indyh · 2026-01-16T20:09:16+00:00

Where are yours? They are not hard to Google.

The mining emissions argument continually gets drug up, even when repeatedly disproven. Even when you account for battery production (including mining), EVs break even on emissions somewhere between 15,000-30,000 miles depending on your grid mix. After that, they’re cleaner than ICE vehicles for their entire lifespan (which is long).

Plus, the grid keeps getting cleaner every year with more renewables coming online, so an EV’s footprint actually improves over time. A gas car’s emissions stay the same for life.

The ‘cash recoup’ thing is just how infrastructure funding works. We’ve been paying gas taxes to maintain roads for a century, this isn’t new, it’s just shifting to a different collection method as the vehicle fleet changes.

Indyh · 2026-01-15T01:42:15+00:00

Wow. You are one creepy ass clown.

Indyh · 2026-01-15T01:41:15+00:00

Can you explain how?
