So android provides "coarse" or "precise" which maps to "wireless" or "gps" but the prompt tells you the app can get your location for either one.

> but then deleted it when it turned out it wouldn't work unless you gave it access to your physical location (I assume that was for their data marketing side business).

In order to use bluetooth or internet access through wireless means you must request location access because it's assumed that you can match a person's location with the access points and bluetooth devices around them (BL beacons). It sucks but Android is semi-right on it. Something that doesn't use wireless means of communication doesn't need location access.

On Android, anything that can broadcast a signal (bluetooth/wifi) require location, at least coarse.

I'm not saying DJI isn't spying on everything but that's probably the reason. This is hilarious in hindsight because for years, you had to give an app call access so they could monitor if a call was incoming (for pausing a game for example)

Edit: It also looks to be a GDPR ban.

| They wanted us to treat them as fungible, replaceable cogs in the machine, not unlike this whole stupid pets-vs-cattle debate with servers.

I have found that when communicating with "business degree" people, I will often use this as a common starting point but then add "but you'll spend far more replacing the knowledge that people take when they leave"

Well, guess we don't need to investigate anymore?

1. Install caprover on a fresh Linode instance. Create captain-definition for each app. Add instances as you need.

2. I'm a pretty knowledgeable DevOps guy.

3. Not really valuable but gives me a bit of Linux experience.

4. Flat instance pricing, was able to get all of my stuff into a $5 instance... however I have been increasing it as I get projects from friends and myself in these.

5. Supports almost everything, it just runs your stuff inside a docker container.

6. I liked Heroku, it's where I started with Rails but it gets ridiculously expensive quickly... there's no reason adding a DB should cost $40.

GPT3 is a large model that won't fit in memory generally.

Stable Difussion isn't so heavy... mostly you are limited by how many steps you want to do.

Because space is at a premium and a nice large camera is a hard tradeoff against just some extra processing algorithms.

This can be fixed easily... divide the safety rating by the number of (thousand) pounds a vehicle has.

No more juicing your safety rating by adding more mass.

"Wanna survive? 200/yr"

What makes you think I don't own an iPhone XR? I have a lot of phones that I use for random projects and testing and sometimes I just need something I can strap to the side of a car with a suction cup to capture gyro data. If it falls off, it falls off.

By the way, I wasn't the one telling me "this is the greatest iPhone yet" at the yearly capitalism conference.

Yes, but you must have a nicer iPhone on the same iCloud account that downloads the current version, then you can use the "purchased" page on the old device.

Actually, you can download the newer version of an app on a newer iphone and then download a version that works on the old iphone from the Purchased page.

Apple makes it difficult but keeping my iPhone 5S is still going years after iOS 12 is no longer "cool"

It's the iOS app support that suffers. Apple makes it pretty unbearable to get apps for unsupported devices so I take those and relegate them to single use non-data holding devices like dashcams and other uses.

A few, but honestly it's mostly gotten me removed from some recruiter lists.

I did the opposite, I just tell them to schedule on my calendar... I'll sit through you salespitch for $100/hr (https://www.starblazer.pro/#/bk/80jKqZYdBdeBd2J3uTdKIoqVgpk2?)

This is awesome... I wonder if we'll get something for video upscaling like this?

I mean, if the customer doesn't complain, why would Doordash care?

I've had this issue with McDonalds fries... I swear they did something to them because from one day to another they became worse.

I'm using an iPhone 5S right now and will be upgrading to an iPhone SE this week as it's getting kinda difficult to get all the apps there.

I have found a large drop-off in time wasters after using Starblazer for my scheduling. Not to shill or anything, these recruiters are getting paid 10% to do jack-shit for you so I just send them my scheduling link with my hourly rate... you wanna talk to me? pay me (https://bk.starblazer.pro/Lazaro)

This is awesome and I'm looking forward to seeing more from this.

The worst bit about this is that in Europe, employers don't have to pay for insurance versus the US side yet we still find ways to dick over our European hires by having them come in very low.

I've worked at places making 150k USD where the most knowledgeable people I worked with were making 90k GBP in Europe. We lost a lot of people during the great exodus of inflation at the beginning of the "Ukraine training exercises".

It's not the jello... it's goddamn sensor noise.

Damn it, Google.

Can we just have a conversation about how my Pixel 4a's camera at 4K gets smoked by an iPhone SE/iPhone 5 taking video at 1080p... I'm not an iphone guy but I do keep one in my pocket for taking video.

So what's really funny is that I've done a lot of stuff with older hardware like this. I use caprover on a cloud provider and then add extra nodes at home with cheap laptops that I've collected over the years.

The system is totally unsustainable... unless we're willing to have a society of debtors, noone is going to buy homes from the boomers.

The majority of retirement the average middle class has is their home.

OMG, it's a Eloo Motors that is electric!

Yeah, that was a book adaptation.
