Looking at how bad our current system is, there's clearly no need to prevent the videos from getting out because the officer can get away with it despite that.

And even if the officer doesn't, the department can just scapegoat them and just keep doing the same things.

All the more reason to not waste a 0-day or risk the knowledge of a backdoor getting out.

Sourcing just shifts the problem to having to verify the source though. Antivax people could easily cite thousands of sources. We'd know there bullshit, but some mod would be stuck needing to vet them.

It's easy for common misinformation like antivax, but more unusual claims could easily be left around just because they have something seemingly relevant linked.

I don't disagree with the idea, it just isn't enough of a fix and would still require a lot of work.

You'd likely only be able to use it effectively once before people seek out different recording devices, or just the knowledge that cameras were disabled in that area would be as damning as any video.

Especially for any zero-day exploits. As soon as it gets used people start protecting against them so they often don't work for very long. It would need to be a pretty big coverup to be worth burning an exploit on. Especially if it's likely that at least one person in the area wouldn't be susceptible and could still record it.

I've used this nightly for years and it's been great for me. It takes some time to adjust the sensitivity to capture midnight ramblings properly, but the recordings are freely accessible and easily saved if you want to keep them.

Working for the agency isn't the problem on its own. If your job requires you to do something that is against your morals, resist up to and including loudly leaving that job if that's what's required. But until then it's more important than ever to stick it out and push to make things better any way you can.

There's definitely incentive for that from both candidates. If they talk about how ahead they are in the pills, people will neglect to vote. If they talk about how they're behind, then it's a foregone conclusion and people won't bother to vote.

If they preach about how close the polls are then it gets people worried enough to actually turn out and vote.

At this point I only seem to hear about polls directly from candidates or PACs so it's hard to know what the biases are.

There's no mention of meat pies in that story, not even sandwiches.

To be fair they weren't inbred yet

If God created it in that state then they should be curious to understand that creation. They look at rainbows as the beauty of creation but not the fact that lead exists in these crystals. It's all equally beautifully complex. So why not try to understand it.

If God made the world look like it was created billions of years ago there must be something worth learning from that, even if you believe it was snapped into existence 6000 years ago.

There may be more caveats here :/

I don't have tile in my bathroom and have a decent vent fan and dry air so I have never had any issues related to this.

Not everyone has access to the financial education that teaches you how bad this is. I see so many people that don't actually understand how credit cards work because they "just got one" after signing up for a rewards program (basically, got scammed into signing up).

Don't add anything new to your calendar, just add them and they can see it's useless for the purpose they want. When they complain, mention the checkin system and that you need to be called. Or just a generic "School Visits" event that isn't specific to each location.

Make sure you have other evidence you're actually working. Make sure people see you at each location so you have witnesses if your boss complains.

Does anyone have any recommendations for issue tracking for homelab setups? I'm sure I could host some Jira clone but that feels overkill for what I'm doing, and something like MediaWiki is too general purpose.

I'm hoping to track future project ideas (Install Jellyfin / Sonarr, etc) and issues with my smarthome (Fireplace Light not accepting color changes via Google Assistant). Ideally with some kind of organization to it (priorities, subitems, etc).

Yeah I could use plaintext, but that's no fun :)
