A bunch of vehicles are doing that and it’s so dumb. Even EV motorcycle manufacturer Zero has been doing it with stuff like heated grips.
You build it into the vehicle…but the customer can’t use it unless they pay monthly for the hardware that is already there…?
The worst of it all for the motorcycle space was a vest that is an airbag and has a subscription. So if you don’t pay your monthly subscription and crash, your airbag wouldn’t deploy. Utterly evil.
This is nothing new, except “relatively new” in the last 100 years. Check out the Phoebus Cartel. It’s a crazy story about light bulb manufacturers getting together to agree to make light bulbs last less so they will guarantee repeat customers.
It’s why I always laugh when Sylvania shows an ad about their “long lasting bulbs”.
You’d be crazy to not think the other industries haven’t been doing this too.
Can confirm this. I experienced this on my Pi3 recently with a VPN. I mean, it wasn’t the end of the world. Just that the specific docker container I wanted to use wasn’t compatible because of ARM so I had to go with a different one.
It could be bad for specific things that are more obscure. But I use my Pi for PiHole adblocking and VPN and that’s it. My other stuff lives on another machine and the Pi is set up for redundancy and it’s more reliable if power outages happen since power in means power on by default.
If you can get one for cheap and just want it for the same reason, could be alright.
What are some examples of low-effort posts? I’ve never felt that way about any posts I’ve seen here. Granted I’m not a heavy user in this community, just been a lurker, but I may be using this more as I grow my own home lab.
SFTP has been mentioned and is a good choice but this could also be done over torrents too. It’s the other most common legal use besides Linux distros.

Probably a direct link to the home network so the camera looks like it’s on the same network.
I’ve thought of and tried this for my VR headset to my home in a similar manner. The VR headset will only stream from my gaming PC if it’s on the same network and so I’d hope to use a VPN to tunnel into my network when not at home to play remotely. I’ve not gotten this to work, but this sounds like a similar hope for OP with a camera.
Why am I not surprised. More of Microsoft trying to enforce this bullshit now that they own CoD.
I believe sometimes they fail no matter what because of a condition on your end.
I’ve encountered this behavior when I’m connected to a VPN or on Tor or sometimes because I’m running Linux. I think they will sometimes fail no matter what under these circumstances because the website is too lazy to actually put some effort in additional steps to vetting you.
That sounds like a great idea but how is the ventilation on that setup? Does it have ventilation for letting in cool air and exhausting the hot air?
Did you make this or are you just promoting it? Your post history seems to suggest you just spam links but don’t actually contribute to the posts you share. Why here on self hosted? Is this self hosted by you or someone you know?
It’s so smart. It’s a wonder why no one ever thought of it before…
128GB are even cheaper, some in the $10 USD range.
If all you do is web browsing and word processing, that’s more than enough.
We get it too when using virtual desktops in the cloud at work. It’s hilarious.
I just wish I had a way to block them. Sometimes I’m troubleshooting or researching and a Reddit thread pops up. It’s a waste of space since I can’t even visit the damn site.
He doesn’t come around too often unfortunately and when he does is when I’m at work. He’s leaving his vehicles there temporarily while he moves out of state so likely out of state and wing be back for a while.
Why I’m sure it’s him is that no one else goes into this property and this all coincidentally started after he began dropping off his cars.
But I am going to be coming by more often.
Honestly I’m glad for progress too. But to me, it’s still not enough. I’m glad I didn’t get any comments about how little it was like I was thinking. I don’t care how little trash it is, I don’t want to see ANY of it! I think that’s what got me so enraged because I’ve been coming to this property for decades and never seen any amounts of trash and to see these straight up infuriated me.
I went to Iceland a few years ago and it was so clean. I couldn’t find one bit of trash anywhere, in any place of the country we visited. It made me feel sick to my stomach comparing it to my home where trash has become a literal part of the city streets. Gum and other spots and little bits of random trash fly around and it’s just another day for us.
I want so much better for our planet and society as a whole. It kills me being on a hiking trail and seeing the littlest bit of trash in the middle of nowhere. Takes me out of the experience and reminds me of the state of filth we live in and just feels so wrong to do to the one place where humans are not permanent, let alone our own neighborhoods.
I had no idea what it was like before my time, but it feels good to know we’ve gotten better about it, in some respects, especially judging by that picture. Glad we had people like you helping to make things better.
I thought about doing it to his cars since I don’t know where he lives. But I figured that might be just making it go back to where it came from, whether he gets mad and throws it somewhere else or it blows away. I’m not sure when he gets back too. He’s parking his cars here because he’s moving out of state and just wants to keep them here temporarily, so no idea when he’d get back to ensure he gets back his “lost property”.
Agreed, I couldn’t find a community named that accurately described my emotions. This will have to do.
I always remember the neon signs 99 Cents stores used to have saying “nothing over 99 cents ever!”
Same here. I’m sick of seeing people say stuff like “just pay for Premium bro”. Stfu. That’s like paying the mafia for “protection” from them. YouTube created these problems and now I have to pay them to fix it? Fuck no.
