This was put together over a long period of time by my paragliding instructor and friend (former engineer for Canada’s space agency - still has a part he designed on the ISS on Canada’s robotic arm):

Every time I click on a clickbait title and KNOW what’s coming (bullshit is what’s coming), and yet I do it anyway and get the expected result. Shame on me and that should teach me.

Twitter is a shining example of that.

I appreciate the precision AND pedantry of your response. Great, concise explanation of exactly what that term means.

Good - thought I was the only one who saw little value in following a person on Lemmy.

Does that variant have the big guns that shoot the 5G mind control beams?

Are presidential elections even the responsibility of the executive branch? (lemm.ee)
 

Is “maintaining the integrity of the presidential election” even fall under the responsibilities of POTUS? Wouldn’t that be more of the judicial’s or legislative’s wheelhouse? If it’s not, doesn’t that completely invalidate Trump’s argument that he was acting under his presidential duties?

For personal projects, I've favored gandi.net for many years, but I'm trying to get a few candidates together for the organization I work for. Not a fan of GoDaddy, NetworkSolutions, or many of the all-in-one web host / registrar / app hosting / whateverelse sites.

Hoping there are a few modern alternatives out there that I haven't seen yet. We had all of our domains on Google Domains, but since they got bought by Squarespace, I'm surveying our options.

Security camera with web embed (lemm.ee)
 

Looks like none of the consumer-grade security cameras (Nest, Arvo, Ring, etc) support being able to embed the feed on a web page anymore. I think many of them never supported it, but looks like since Google bought Nest, they are slowly stripping features out of that one.

I'm looking to set up a security camera or two in a park-like area (it's a parking lot and landing area for a freeflight club), and am looking for something that checks the following boxes:

  • Ideally, a solution that doesn't need an external computer (a full blown machine that's running software that might have to be restarted by a human on-site; a self-contained hardware device or rack mounted solution that would start all necessary services up after a power outage or other failure would be fine).
  • Video would be ideal, but if there's something that would take snapshots every few seconds, that's acceptable.
  • Stream (or photos) would need to be publicly-accessible. A webpage embed would be ideal, but not something where a whole bunch of people have to use a dedicated mobile app to access it.

I looked at some of Unifi's product offerings, but hard to tell if some combination of their cameras and routers would accomplish that. Anyone put something like this together recently and can recommend anything?
