I mean… has anyone other than the company that made the tool said so? Like from a third party? I don’t trust that they’re not just advertising.

I’ve heard that these tools aren’t 100% accurate, but your last point is valid.


Private space works slightly differently especially when it comes to folder organization. Because of that I actually still prefer Shelter, personally.


I downloaded TizenTube Cobalt as a replacement until the dust settles. Obviously similar attacks can happen with TizenTube, but if you want something that is clean right now, that’s the way to go.
Those both work fine in Wayland.


The new repo has two releases in it now. These releases are not signed with the original key as far as I can tell. Further, GitHub is silently redirecting to the new repo, even in Obtainium, meaning it’s possible that if you had this previously installed via Obtainium and updated now, you may have unsigned apks installed that may or may not contain the changes in the repo.
This is a mess. I deleted the repo from Obtainium (luckily I don’t auto install updates) and will wait to see what happens over the next few months. Might just save my notes in a network share instead of using syncthing from my phone. Idk, notes are all that I was using it for.


Watch for spicy pillows… they’ll light your stuff on fire.

They make countertop dishwashers that connect to your sink, still better than washing by hand imo


I mean, that’s true, yes. The ones on roads (which also exist in my area) are far worse. However, it’s still a huge invasion of privacy that most people have no idea about. Plus, there may not be alternative home improvement stores in certain areas. Lowe’s and Home Depot are the only home improvement stores in my area, and both of those disgusting corps have million dollar contracts with Flock. They’re literally at every location from what I can tell on DeFlock.
ALPRs, especially Flock, are designed for police. They only exist so police can avoid getting warrants to know where you’ve been.


In this specific case, the only people I could contact are Home Depot corporate, and they signed a huge contract ($$$) with Flock. It’s something I’ve thought about though. I really wish Lowe’s and Home Depot weren’t the only home improvement stores in town, as they both have Flock.


Deflock has a great picture-based guide here: https://deflock.me/identify
In the dark, the ALPRs made by flock have a green flow to them. Even in the daylight, though, they are relatively easy to spot once you see one. They’re usually at each entrance of a storefront or on the sides of roads, and typically have their own solar panel.
Once you notice one, you’ll start noticing them everywhere, at least that’s how it worked for me in my area.

Agreed on all points, but especially #1. Fuck Nestle. Every time I buy a new product at the grocery store, I check to make sure they’re not made by Nestle or a subsidiarity of Nestle.


Everyone who eats and drinks chemicals will eventually die!


My local Lowe’s and Home Depot have the only Flock cameras in my county (for now, anyway).


OSM provides multiple languages including English. Are you using a VPN connected to another country perhaps?


Up 1% for the day


They’ve been running on that PR spin since 2023.


To each their own I suppose. CoMaps is great for me, and I’ve never used carplay.


If it’s missing data (such as locations) that is the issue, then you can update the map yourself and help others migrate at the same time. Every little bit helps, even if you don’t plan on fully moving over. I’ve done over a thousand changes to my local area and it’s actually more accurate than Google Maps in a lot of the commercial areas. You don’t have to do a thousand things though, like I said, every little bit helps.
Of course, it doesn’t help for outside of your area if you only do changes locally, but if enough people were willing to update the map, things could change.
Sure, but plenty of journalists use the em-dash. That’s where LLMs got it from originally. It alone is not a signature of LLM use in journalistic articles (I’m not calling this CTO guy a journalist, to be clear)
