    1. Another really obvious low-hanging fruit here is using mobile phone operating systems and hardware for a government surveillance camera. The Falcon, the Sparrow, and likely Flex LPR devices or the cameras you most commonly see all over the country were running Android Things 8 or 8.1 which was discontinued in 2021 and that includes security updates. At this time, there are over 900 published vulnerabilities for the SOS.

    2. I used open source intelligence to see what data is stored in RGS. Let me show you some of the things I found in the police departments and Flux safety are storing on RGS.

      Note: "RGS" in the speech-to-text is "ArcGIS"

    3. Firstly, when I moved in front of the camera, the radar module triggered the camera module to take a picture of me. Then the onboard AI looked for a license plate and didn't find one, but it stored the image anyway to a separate folder. Now this doesn't seem to target people, it will also take a picture of my hand if I move in front of the lens or a picture of my desk if I move the device. But what I observed were the devices intentionally saving the footage, not erasing it.

    1. didn't raise no fool

      From a strictly grammatical point of view, this expression is wrong: two negative forms (didn't and no) are not acceptable in a sentence. The correct form should be either "My mama did not raise any fools" or "My mama raised no fool". However, double negative (also called negative concord) is used in some varieties of English (in this case, African-American Vernacular English) to intensify the meaning of the sentence. In other words, the construction is a sub-standard form used mainly to give more emphasis and expressive force to what is being said. It should be avoided in written and formal writing, but it is normal to use in oral speech, especially in African-American communities.

      Curiosity: labeling an expression or an usage as "wrong" or "correct" is rarely a matter of language and more frequently a matter of (social) prestige: normally, it is considered "right" the variant of the language that is used by educated, white people; in contrast, "wrong" expressions are often the ones employed by minorities, uneducated or stigmatized groups. Long story short: people think they are judging an incorrect linguistic form, when, in fact, they are stigmatizing the community that uses it.

    1. t’s a very generic definition that I think gets to the heart of what we mean by intelligence, which is the ability to adaptively navigate a problem space with some degree of competency to get your needs met

    1. 1936 Olympic Games

      What follows is only partly new, but mainly no. Sports as at the work level are hardly games. People there don't play, they train, they work, they compete. Sports as competition is football, basketball, you may know more ancient forms of them... and they have rules, referees, time, and metrics like assists, goals, even dating very far back.

      The olympics of wrestling, of lifting, or ball throwing. They had metrics in the past, in Greece, in Rome. This ain't new, come on.

    2. Some researchers look at someone creating analternative history in a game, like a small country conquering the world,and see it that way. But my argument is that these types of alternativehistory creation, or counter-play, is essentially just replicating the logicof colonialism. You just happen to be the colonizer. Like, let me go con-quer England in the game – it’s still colonialism, right?

      The point being, there is exogenous, or what is forced from outside, and endogenous, or what is forced from inside. UK, France, Spain, etc. were and are colonialists countries that forced upon others their empire, and they still do, but in a more palatable less visibly violent fashion.

      They opress, homogenise, silence, displace, much like the US, Mainland China, India, or Mexico. Their internal dissidents, varied ideologies, immigrants, subcultures, languages, natives, are squished, minoritised, colonised.

    3. It’s literallyabout the colonisation of an entire galaxy. Those types of elements areso prevalent.But then there’s the more obvious ones like Age of Empires. Or, Em-pire: Total War. How these games work, and how they are meant to beplayed, there’s an unavoidable code there.

      Yes, arguably that is the game's goal, but as I see it, most of the game's players are actually very far from being mindless colonialists. They are not warmongers either. Instead, I see historians, economists, people that may be white, sure, but that are also concerned with whiteness, that try to tackle it by explaining it. Strategy games demand systems thinking that is somewhat incompatible with reductionist us vs them narratives.
