I don't have one but the modularization of each emulator seems really clever and a good idea.

I enjoyed how they've reworked this classic and I thought you might too.

This is pretty much what one would expect.

Tl;Dr:The officer should have simply stepped aside, not that he was injured...

This must not be allowed to continue! I just do not have the words for this.

These cameras simply MUST go. This cannot stand. It's constant surveillance and a huge national security attack surface.

I know that a lot of us here already know this, but this explanation is unusual on its clarity and so I think it's good for sharing to friends and family that don't see what's happening.

This has me wondering what's going to happen to platforms like this. How would age verification even work here? Would it work?

So I guess the solution to this is to backup your phone to someplace safe, wipe it, and then restore it when you get to your destination... WTF!

Just when I thought I couldn't have a lower opinion of flock.

What does it take to become the most successful AI surveillance company in 2025? If you’re anything like Flock, the startup selling automatic license plate readers and facial recognition tech to cops, you don’t really need much AI at all — just an army of sweatshop workers in the global south.

Bombshell new reporting from 404 Media found that Flock, which has its cameras in thousands of US communities, has been outsourcing its AI to gig workers located in the Philippines.

After accessing a cache of exposed data, 404 found documents related to annotating Flock footage, a process sometimes called “AI training.” Workers were tasked with jobs include categorizing vehicles by color, make, and model, transcribing license plates, and labeling various audio clips from car wrecks.

In US towns and cities, Flock cameras maintained by local businesses and municipal agencies form centralized surveillance networks for local police. They constantly scan for car license plates, as well as pedestrians, who are categorized based on their clothing, and possibly by factors like gender and race.

This was just too hilarious not to post.

These guys are really on their resistance game, already stealing jobs from AI

Rollins has made a case for sweeping changes to SNAP by asserting her agency uncovered "massive fraud" in state data the agency demanded, and has emphasized statistics suggesting wrongdoing without providing the underlying data or details.

I would love to see the evidence they've gathered.

I may even use foiabuddy to ask for it. I suppose that'd make me a target.

According to the final agency decision, the President may now fire female federal workers like Ms. Nemer — because of their sex — and the law would have nothing to say about it
