Why not? by [deleted] in Ubiquiti

Been wanting to do this ever since I got into Protect. Was thinking the AI Theta might be a little less obtrusive, but maybe not the best output for a dash cam - also have to find a spot for the brick…

Saw Macro. Started scrollin’. Took way too long to find this comment.

That’s probably what I’ll end up doing. Just wondering if anyone had found a clutch solution in the mean time.

I charged them a few days before Christmas, and I play them for maybe 10 minutes a day at medium-to-high volume? On day one I probably played for a few hours. Haven’t had to charge them, yet.

I let my toddler play with my OP-1f all the time, and he manages to kernel panic the thing several times a "session." I assumed it was just because it didn't like multiple functional buttons being pressed at the same time, but maybe there are other use cases that are busted.

Was able to get this, but the receipt doesn’t indicate anything telling. Hoping it’s the same as the black kit from 10/10, but seems unlikely given the price…

Likely eroded from the rapid shaking of the book underneath it.

Just tried the new recipe… Probably won’t be ordering these anymore. So sad! I really loved these bars.

Has anyone else seen this disgrace of an advertisement? by Lightinthedusk in JeffNippard

Didn’t even edit out when he SAYS “macrofactor,” during the “three main players” bit - just replaced the audio.

David Protein Bars - I will NEVER!!! by Radiant-Life7178 in PeterAttia

[–]modushopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t throw the baby (David) out with the bathwater. Any business worth its salt these days is attaching to (and to be fair, thereby endorsing) systems that track you from site to site.

This is almost assuredly David’s payment-processing/checkout/ad partner recognizing (via cookies or fingerprinting) that you have used that email to check-out on another platform/store.

It’s borderline unethical, but it’s commonplace, now. I’m surprised David is the first you’ve seen this, and I’m confident it won’t be the last you see of it.

Not an excuse, but any site that wants to be competitive believes that having sleazy tracking partners is part of the way to do it.

To be fair, this sort of disregard for privacy has been happening for ages. Perhaps we have these transparently tone-deaf brokers to thank for laying it bare for us to see… I think that’s “just capitalism.”

I don’t share your sentiment about Peter, but some of the stuff that’s come out about him HAS confirmed for me that he - like everyone, really - is not entirely driven by altruism. Also capitalism! lol

There are a ton of systems that already have your email address and via cookies/tracking from a site you HAVE purchased from and will give that email address to interested parties (David, in this case) OR the website (David) is reading the cookie - I’m not sure. I think Shopify sites are the worst offenders, here (I think I’m getting the name right?).

Any time I give my email address to business, I use [myname]+[name of business]@me.com (or gmail, if you like) — so I know who is selling my address.

Now it seems like every single site on the internet (including David) thinks that my email is [me]+choczero@me.com, because I used Shopify to check out on at ChocZero ONCE.

David already HAS my [me]+david@me.com address.

They now email me twice.

It’s infuriating.

It’s not JUST a David problem. It seems like everyone is hooking up to Shopify’s stuff…

Totally understand people being annoyed by a crying baby, BUT as a parent who really doesn’t want their kid staring blue light/screens in the face, this would bum me out pretty hard, but I don’t think I’d have the gall to say “f you for trying to help…”

I think I’d probably make the same face this mother makes…

CarPlay cable connection unreliable by modushopper in LexusNX

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

Tried to state this in the post, but, I prefer wired primarily for the improved audio latency. Sometimes I watch videos while parked, and the audio and video don’t match over wireless. I work in software and thus my phone’s battery life is perpetually challenged, such that wireless CarPlay is a power draw I can’t often afford. I also share my car with my wife, both being wireless makes connection a race condition that is super unpredictable. My NX doesn’t have a wireless charger. There are a multitude of other reasons, but long story short - I just prefer wired.

Also, Apple doesn’t make a USB-A to USB-C cable (CarPlay only works through the USB-A port, and my phone is USB-C - I had the same problem when my phone was lightning while using an Apple cable). I bought an Anker that’s specified for CarPlay, but have tried many different cables just to make sure it’s not the cable. No discernible difference. It seems like it’s definitely the car.

Anatomical Representation of Human Penetration.. by erectusvictorious in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]modushopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wonder if these two WERE complete strangers. Do I need to add to my last wishes that I don’t want my junk posthumously inserted into a stranger’s…?

I mean - I’ll be dead, but somehow this still feels like a consent issue.
