  • You’re giving the guy a lot of grace. Admitting that there could be other reasons why tall guys can be partnered with short girls, especially when given objective evidence supporting these other reasons, is not impeded by a language barrier, not at the fluency level at which they’re otherwise communicating.

    Nowhere in this thread do they admit it could be for reasons other than their personal theory.

    That’s just having a poorly justified opinion and doubling down on it when confronted with evidence to the contrary, which deserves to be called out.


  • Again. Someone pointed out that in general women prefer men that are like 8" taller whereas men prefer women who are 3" shorter, and you refuse to talk about how it might not be the man preferring a very short wife, but the wife preferring a very tall man.

    Instead you double down on “damn, them be some child-like features the men are going for”.

    What does that tell everyone? You are CHOOSING to interpret a height differential to be about child like features, ignoring evidence to the contrary.

    Why would you choose that?

    I don’t personally think that’s what you’re into. But I think you have a poorly justified opinion.


  • You can have stupid feelings, especially once they concern how you treat others. There’s a big difference between “idk why, but I really like cherry flavored ice cream” and “idk why, but these people make me feel uncomfortable”, because the latter opens you up to treating others with prejudice.

    It’s your job to wrestle with them and make sure your feelings are justified, or to change your mind.

    Doesn’t have to be cars.

    I’m just saying the original post is conflating criticisms against a particular implementation of blockchain with all blockchain.

    “The wright brothers invented a useless machine they called the airplane. It only held one person and could fly for only a limited duration. It was also extremely dangerous.”

    That’d be a silly sentence, would it not?

    Sure. Sure. Insert your own example of applying the sins of a particular implementation of a technology to a hierarchical supergroup. That was an example I came up with in a few minutes on the shitter, not a deep philosophical argument.

    _ is bad, because (specific implementation) has these flaws!

    That’s the issue being discussed here. It’s misleading without precision.

    Elon musk popularized the electric car.

    It had dumb handles that killed people. It lied about having self-driving capabilities. It had terrible manufacturing tolerances.

    The “technically true” nature of it reads like propaganda against electric cars as a whole, does it not? I’d argue that applies here too.

    There are multiple wifi-connected solar powered cameras that will do the motion-activation, IR night mode, etc. thing that you’re asking for, that you can just drop into a location, but they won’t be self hosted.

    Unfortunately pretty much everything you’d self host takes time and finagling, it’s just the price of privacy/independence. I know you’re asking for a self hosted solution but that will be difficult with little free time. I’ve been running frigate for a year and I still can’t get some object detection masks to properly ignore detections.


  • You’ll want to be running frigate, a self hosted nvr solution.

    Camera wise, you’ll probably want a power over Ethernet (poe) amcrest or hikvision camera for continuous video to be sent to the nvr to do the detection. A list of recommended hardware is found here.

    I’ll be honest though, depending on where this is you might be better off with a non-self hosted setup. For example, reolink makes several battery/solar powered wifi cameras that record on motion, shooting notifications to your phone. No cables to run
