This is not true. To elaborate on what the other person who replied said… there is no safe level of lead in consumer products because lead accumulates in the body. Also, lots of consumer products still contain lead because there are loopholes. And the regulations any way aren’t that stringent.

Looks like you already settled on this, but I’m doing exactly this (syncing obsidian, as well as photos/videos from camera reel), to desktop and NAS, using syncthing-fork. Let me know if you want some pointers.

Oh I totally agree and yes we’re already on that path.

The solution here is probably more like no cameras spying on your employees for every second of their shift. Give them a job and let them do it or not do it.

Not necessarily, but there’s a difference between something being illegal and something being perceived by an insurance company as increasing risk. There are a lot of things that are legal and risky.

This isn’t right. Singing also counts as distracted.

Heard about this a while back. I think the real explanation is that amazon wants cameras in their vehicles to monitor their drivers. But Amazon’s insurer says “if you have this video we want to see it, and if your drivers are distracted in general, your insurance rates are going up” and/or when there’s an incident, any evidence of distracted driving will be leveraged against amazon… so instead of getting rid of the cameras, they are micromanaging their employees not to be distracted while driving, where “distracted” includes talking on the phone and also singing or speaking.

It’s all really shitty tbh.

I get that with a company as big as Amazon, small margins can make a big difference, but… pretty sure that’s just an argument against giant fucking companies running everything…

Can you provide something backing this up? I was under the impression it was at least a good jumping off point for looking at sources against the backdrop of conservative–progressive and solid journalism–blatant disinformation spectrums

Pretty sure when I counted, the numbers were off. Not even 13 people in the supposed last supper shot.

For what it’s worth, it’s really hard to read this post (which you seem to have put some actual effort into) because you’re writing it with odd abbreviations and slang. I know you’re trying to be edgy or something but when you have something worthwhile to say, it’s best to communicate it in a way that the majority of people who run across it can understand, rather than wrap it in what effectively amounts to lingo and jargon.

I have found synching to be very useful for making copies of files across devices. I have it setup to mirror photos from my phone, photos from my wife’s phone, and various other things (to-do lists for todo.txt, notes and shopping lists for obsidian… stuff like that) back to my desktop and my NAS. You can set it to do one-way sync (which is more like a backup) or two way sync (where changes anywhere are propagated to everywhere else).

As others have said, it’s not really a true backup solution, but handy to have immediately accessible copies of what’s on your phone in case of phone loss or damage.

For photo viewing and sharing, I am more or less pointing the photo sharing app on my NAS to the photos I sync from phone. They all get dropped into an “inbox” when first synced and then can be organized from there.

You may also want an actual backup solution. There are quite a few and that’s a different topic. The reason I bring it up, though, is that simply mirroring what’s currently on device is not considered a real backup by most people, and for good reason.

This probably factors into the resurgence of vinyl.

Speaking as someone who has gone through several of them from several brands… All the robot vacuums are scams anyway.

The batteries wear out quickly. They are consumable parts not covered by warranty.

The brushes wear out quickly. Also consumable parts not covered by warranty.

The filters eventually become clogged and render the device unusable without replacement. Also consumable and not covered by warranty.

And honestly I would be willing to put up with all of the above if they did a good job vacuuming, but they don’t and won’t.

While I agree with your sentiment… millionaires and billionaires should not be lumped together. This conflation is actually a super useful tool for the billionaires (and mega millionaires) to use when convincing the middle and lower economic classes to vote in their favor.

Realistically, millionaire today basically just means homeowner. As ridiculous as it sounds, a million dollars is not an “enormous” sum of money in today’s world.

Billionaire is something different entirely.

Better to say “super wealthy” or something like that.

You could try an hdmi audio extractor and pipe that into a raspberry pi with the appropriate hat and run a real-time volume normalization dsp then run from the pi to your sound system or BACK into some hdmi encoder.

Probably run into major issues with delayed audio though.

I’ve had several brands. I’m sure none were privacy respecting. But beyond that they’re all crap. They all break down and end up requiring near constant maintenance. They also don’t do a very good job of vacuuming.

Better off getting a half decent vacuum (extra points if it uses bags because… Bagless is fucking stupid) and for little clean up jobs get a manual sweeper like some restaurants use.

Yes that’s a concern with all of them, Apple TV included.

That’s what I’m using now and I like it.
