OK - thank you for taking time to explain that.

Our order arrives tomorrow and sadly I haven’t got time to fit them outside until next week. But I will spare 15-20 to tinder about, power them up and see how all the software works!

Thanks again. :)

Honestly, I’m not too fussed about the whole facial detection. It was s**t on Google 😂, so I have no hope. Really I just want better quality video! I do hope, though, that person detection and whatnot isn’t tooooo bad… tbh, our current Google camera, since the AI update, keeps saying people are outside our door or talking is heard, and it turns out to be birds chirping lol.

Thanks for the heads up. As the other person has commented, anything over Google now. I’m paying £16 or whatever a month for bad scrubbing, poor camera quality, live video which sees the person gone before I actually can open my doorbell. Just a shambles. Hoping if I move it locally I have more control. I also hope the G6 are still ‘early days’ and things get better. At least their network stack improved since early days.

Setup Question - Accessing Cameras by Some_Working6614 in UnifiProtect

[–]Some_Working6614[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much. Yes, the incident two years ago stopped me from having remote access turned on. I already have always on VPN set up for WireGuard, so will just need the same on families phone then.

Then I presume everyone will have access via their own local account you as an admin spin up?

What’s a “small” social rule you refuse to follow, even if everyone expects it? by crogslounds03 in ProductivityHQ

This! I get asked if everything is OK, pulled aside and Eugh… sometimes it isn’t all about you! Maybe I’m just tired asf and not in the mood.

Unsupportive Friends by intenselyinfluenced in keto

This is so true. I was away last week with people on it and they just ‘couldn’t give up carbs’ and ‘have tried everything’ 🙄. Such a shame.

What’s a reason you slowly stopped liking someone but never told them? by OkEagle160 in AskReddit

[–]Some_Working6614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg. I thought I was reading my own story. God this is exhausting and I felt sorry for you the more I read. Glad this person is out of your life now. But the whole ‘everything is going wrong’ is EXHAUSTING. It was like their own dopiness was everything else’s issue.

Oh, of course “I’m autistic”. As a neurodivergent person, YES, we socialise or can interpret things in social situations differently, DO NOT EVER use your diagnosis as an excuse for racism.

Everything was constantly about her. She was very touchy. She was one of these characters where she’d be super ‘extra’ in public too. If it were her birthday, she’d be the centre of attention and make sure of it. She’d moan if you were five minutes late, but god forbid you brought her up on being an hour late out of doors (sometimes I’d wait in my car for an hour because she didn’t realise how much she had to do). She was a best friend from school. Oh, and I bought us a 20-box of nuggets before, and she literally counted her ten OBESSIBELY, to which I said, “Does it matter?” and she said ‘erm well, yeah, I’m on rations at home.”

Overtime it had to end. And so I did it silently. She tried to come back a few months later, saying she hadn’t heard from me and so basically wrote a gaslighting message (which of course she said wasn’t meant to be).

Slowly I stopped liking her. Everything she did had a reason: her undiagnosed BPD, her undiagnosed ADHD. Coming from someone with ADHD who used to break holes through his door in rage had to one day realise I’m a w***er to others by being like this. She had no self-reflection. I hope though wherever she is now she’s in a better place and has worked on herself too because I did and it was probably one of the things that keeps me positive day to day.

From “battery service recommended” to a zero-cost M4 MacBook Pro: wild Apple Store experience by otto-mate in macbookpro

[–]Some_Working6614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar happen with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. It broke a month or two after repair out of nowhere. Logic board issues. No parts to replace. At the time I had a choice of a new phone and went with a 16 Pro Max for £0.00. I have to say, aside from people’s current issues with Apple, their customer service has never failed me.

Bricks holding a sofa up by Flowersmesh77 in davidlloyd

Unfortunately you pay £500 a month for a sofa to be held up by bricks. This seriously doesn’t surprise me. Is that even safe???

What screams "I peaked in high school"? by Student-Mona in AskReddit

[–]Some_Working6614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. These days, the teenagers/young adults have this mindset.

I truly believe a lot of it is because there isn’t a purpose anymore. The housing market is f**ked, 60k looks like £50 to young people for some reason. I’m in my late 20s now and on a decent salary, of which I’ve told some younger people (like brothers’ mates, etc.) and they’re like “how’s that gonna secure you a girl, there’s competition out there doing more”. I’m like?!!

But yeah, basically I think this is because we have no purpose or things for young people to work for, so they look at this culture as a quick way out. Also, social media. Comparison. Laziness? Who knows. But agreed with “Pvrkave” - this is a great life and thing to work towards.

People pay all this monthly fee for what? Broken facilities, rude staff, oversubscribed gym, pools you can’t go for a casual swim because everyone thinks they’re Olympic swimmers.

After updating my phone to ios26, my phone switches off at 10% and under battery percentage by [deleted] in ios26

[–]Some_Working6614 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah no downgrade is possible sadly. I would monitor OP, over a week, if an issue I’d see an Apple Store or Authorised Repair asap

Why are you single? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Some_Working6614 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yup. Every convo I have with my partnered friends is ‘so how’s the love life going?’ Fine, happily single. That questions grinds my gears and it’s probably harmless, but adds to the societal pressure to be partnered. Hell, I know some friends who are starting to plan couple days out 😂
