  • I use the frigate plugin in home assistant to make my lights do certain things when persons are detected where they shouldn’t be. Once you’ve got frigate connected to home assistant, your possibilities are endless. With a few zigbee smart switches, you could start pulling off home alone style antics if you really wanted. Think: sprinklers, lights, noises, projectors, video, etc… just dont forget to keep the legal aspect in mind.

    I also have home assistant play a sort of alarm on my denon home theater stereo if a person is detected in frigate. It gets very loud.

    I haven’t heard of alarmo. It sounds like it fits my use case perfectly. Checking it out.




  • Yes… that is not only possible, but likely when n=5…

    Please, the original claim was “Chinese people feel coerced”, which is wrong by every metric, and there is no evidence to support this claim.

    Although China is certainly not immune from severe social and economic challenges, there is little evidence to support the idea that the CCP is losing legitima- cy in the eyes of its people. In fact, our survey shows that, across a wide variety of metrics, by 2016 the Chi- nese government was more popular than at any point during the previous two decades. On average, Chinese citizens reported that the government’s provision of healthcare, welfare, and other essential public services was far better and more equitable than when the survey began in 2003. Also, in terms of corruption, the drop in satisfaction between 2009 and 2011 was complete- ly erased, and the public appeared generally support- ive of Xi Jinping’s widely-publicized anti-corruption campaign. Even on the issue of the environment, where many citizens expressed dissatisfaction, the majority of respondents expected conditions to improve over the next several years. For each of these issues, China’s poorer, non-coastal residents expressed equal (if not even greater) confidence in the actions of government than more privileged residents. As such, there was no real sign of burgeoning discontent among China’s main demographic groups, casting doubt on the idea that the country was facing a crisis of political legitimacy.

    Let me guess: Harvard is tankie?





  • There’s no AI databases in tibet, Yemen, Sudan etc.

    Yes… I know… the point was not that AI is stealing water from the Middle East. The point is that, whether its datacenters in the west, or climate change in the Middle East, profit motive, corporate greed, and theft are the main causes of water scarcity and lack of water collaboration. As is stated more elegantly in the numerous sources I’ve linked - which quantify water scarcity at the hands of corporations.

    these places were going to run out of water eventually anyways

    Source? This is a massive statement. You think that since humans first settled the Middle East, they were doomed to run out of water? How do even prove or disprove this? Any analysis here is predicated upon a history of capitalism and imperialism.

    Am I understanding this right? You believe that, amid a new strategy of gunning down starving Palestinians arriving to aid sites, Taiwan was obligated to start giving free vacations to genocidal IDF soldiers to bolster its defensive capacity? Dafuq?

    Yall’s “liberal pragmatism” is laughably evil.




  • It’s not fair to characterize jellyfin as being unable to scale, and it’s just downright wrong to cast it as being built “for one single local user”.

    Jellyfin has great support for setups that include numerous users. The entire dashboard is basically designed around this concept of an admin keeping track of dozens upon dozens of users.

    You seem like you have many reservations about specific functions in Jellyfin, but you were vague in explaining thrm - what specific things are you worried about?
