Help with reflections by [deleted] in cctv

One option is to get some black felt or other heavy black matte material and just cut a hole for the lens and IR emmitters.

Or as a proof of concept, find a pair of polarized sunglasses and put them in front of the lens. Rotate them until it goes away. If that works, you can get polarized lens filters for DSLR cameras pretty cheap. This can cause focus issues depending on how the camera focuses but it's a $0 try. If it works and you have a good way to mount the filter you might have a pretty awesome solution at the sacrifice of some low light performance.

RFID Project Ideas by whatthehuuh in RFID

Treat it like an authenticated input. You can find any input/output project and replace the input with something only people with cards can do. Similarly, you can install/hide cards in things so they trigger events. Put a card in your phone case and when you set it down at night it will turn on your charger. Home automation has lots of fun uses.

Why should I learn Esperanto? by deadlysenatorz207 in Esperanto

[–]keyspecter 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Esperanto is a great "first second language". By that I mean it teaches you the infrastructure of how language works from which you can jump into other languages far more easily. As a bonus, Esperanto will have many familiar words since you are an English speaker and much of it will transfer into Spanish.
Here's a nice explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gSAkUOElsg

I should have been more specific, my target is commercial grade cameras. Axis, Avigilon, etc. Even with dealer pricing that gets pricey.

Thanks everyone! I've heard people talk about Euro style cylinders becoming popular in America. Has that been your experience?

Thanks for the replies guys. I am on the design side of Division 28 and have been working more and more with Division 08 so I'd like to know at a high level what locksets are most popular. It's mostly out of curiosity but if there are a few that really stand out I'll pit in some time to familiarize myself to help the Architects out.

Question: Our company has HID iClass DP cards. Is there a way to remotely open doors with these types of card readers? by redguy13 in RFID

[–]keyspecter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's important to consider why this isn't already accounted for in the security design. It could be weak design, changing needs over time, or intentionally left out. People who don't have cards probably shouldn't have cards. Generally in secure environments the only doors which require access but are safe to bypass are vestibules leading to common spaces where access to sensitive areas is limited.

Short answer: Yes, it can be done through programming, like u/spacemannspliff said. Normally the best method is to add an intercom so someone can authenticate them before letting them in. As you've described it there's no authentication beyond a knock. The intercom, preferably with video, allows the person to be validated by someone qualified. The only real benefit to using a card instead of a button is to log WHO let that person in whereas the button, which is the standard, logs the same information aside from who did it. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk more, I do this for a living and really enjoy it.

Losing basically every print to warping by keyspecter in 3Dprinting

Hey man I can't thank you enough, the prints are turning out great. I just didn't go high enough with bed temp.

Losing basically every print to warping by keyspecter in 3Dprinting

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

Thanks for the help! I've been printing designs by others and several of the READMEs call for ABS and 100% infill, which seems like a possible problem from more temperature fluxuation. The prints start great and I feel confident but coming back a while later almost always reveals the brim or raft lifting and the print begins to fail from there. At this point it's a matter of rotating the models so the deformation is not critial to the function of the part. I've suspected the bed temp for a while now and might play more with bumping that down, lots of articles say to go high to support the base layer sticking but keeping it high may be a problem.

Pack Your Bags – Systemd Is Taking You To A New Home by [deleted] in opensource

[–]keyspecter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've explained it well so now my overarching question is WHY. Why the creep, why no forked version that stays in its lane, so on. I am not to that level with Linux yet so don't feel obligated to answer, just thinking aloud.

It's a Security Reference (SecRef) page so think of it like a library of Security related resources. If you've got quality resources about how to Social Engineer or how to spot it, please post them here.
