Oh yes - run Frigate on a mini PC or home server. It runs best in Docker. And it should work with any cameras that support RTSP and provide H.264 video.
I'm not affiliated btw, but I found the instructions really useful - they walk you through an install of Debian 13 (small version of the OS with minimal components), set up low maintenance options (auto updates etc.), install Docker & Frigate, and set up your cameras for best performance depending on your needs.
Keep everything local (if you want). I also integrate with HomeAssistant and expose that through a free CloudFlare Tunnel for access when away from home.
CloudFlare tunnels by the way - these are a great solution to accessing home-network resources without punching holes / port-forwarding etc. because all the access is outward from the home network, then an authentication layer added by CloudFlare.
Given that cloudflare tunnels require ssl termination, this technically isnt much different to a cloud server that promises not to record. Of course, cloudflare are less likely to be inclined to analyse it
If you're plotting primes, all the coordinates where you're not plotting are non-prime - so every 2nd coordinate will be blank. As will every 3rd and every 4th, 5th, 10th, 11th. etc etc.
I think relying on the internet to have a trust mechanism built in is a bit like relying on our road-builders to ensure our vehicles are safe.
While the average internet user will just trust the sites and apps they use, there's nothing stopping those who are able from designing/building/using/sharing technology which they can reasonably trust. The building blocks are there (crypto / networking libraries etc.).
When open source software gets outlawed, I'll be worried.
I drop photos (from whatever device) into a folder on my NAS and they get automatically sanitized of EXIF data, and resized/bordered ready for posting to the internet.
It's simply a cron & bash script on a server that monitors one NAS folder, then drops the output into a second folder where I can pick them up and use them.
Using kdenlive for video editing on Linux has served has a good reminder many times to save often.
Cloud and mobile apps are often very good at taking this task away from a user, but it's worth remembering to take responsibility for saving/backing up files that have value.
I'd expect it to be quite high (deaths per TWh) while the technology is new or advancing fast, both because the energy production will be low, and because there must be more risk in newer industrial-scale technologies.
Deaths per TWh in Offshore wind vs Onshore wind production would be interesting to see too.
Wow, this comment just got me thinking. If I've got good at taking well composed photos, according to common photography techniques, might they have less of that time-machine, memory-jogging quality? I'd like to have both - maybe I need two sets for photos!
I think this may have been the result of banking malware (e.g. Zeus back in the day) which was hooking OS calls to capture keyboard input and steal passwords.
I'm not sure whether the on-screen keyboards would be vulnerable in other ways though.
