@LockEx @briankrebs congrats!

@Sempf @briankrebs thanks! now if only broadcasting that around scored me more gigs

@briankrebs phobos turned 10 yesterday. i know exactly these feels

@Herndonite framing it as anything other than "ice can see through ring cameras" is softening it, and 100% of the time some rando responds to a thread with nothing but a link to a snopes link, it implies they are "calling bullshit".

so if i say "ring can see through ice cameras" and you reply with nothing but a link to a snopes article, it implies you are calling bullshit on my statement.

which in this context means you are defending ring and ice from me.

@Herndonite but the bigger question, is why are you defending flock and ice?

@Herndonite

@paul_ipv6 it definitely is not

@da_667 every little bit counts

@lproven @stuartl i think our brains may be touching

did my civic duty today:
went to a local donut shop
noticed they had a new ring camera up.
i ask the nice hispanic girl behind the counter "hey you know ice can see through that ring camera, right?"
she goes UHHHH NO WTF I HAVE ONE AT HOME
"tear it out of the wall. yank the power. ring gives ice free access to those"

@thomas_klopf i've done probably 3 dozen assessments for companies that are running k8s. this article speaks the truth. ive seen maybe one? two? "properly configured" k8s installs. the rest are .. well, not great. its bureaucracy for the sake of bureaucracy. nobody is using it right, and it creates way way way more problems than it solves.

then there's shit like moltbot/moltbook, which is just .. building a house out of dynamite

@da_667 yup, exactly

@da_667 supposedly the guy who was interviewed is ex redhat?
