I hate to say it. But this is one case where I find AI useful, it can summarize the video:

Privacy Risks: These devices feed personal data to corporations, insurance companies, and law enforcement

Technical Vulnerabilities: Jordan demonstrates how these cameras can be hacked via deauth attacks to disrupt connections. RF side-channel attacks to monitor activity, and data metadata analysis.

Ineffectiveness: The video notes that research shows little evidence that these cameras actually deter crime.

promptly notifying the Agentic Commerce Agent and Target of any activity

Which will involve trying to persuade another ai agent that it isn't use error and that you really need to speak to someone.

That reminds me of the term Lithobraking.

It's Kessler Syndrome, in case anyone wants to read up on it.

At least I have to give them credit for using plain language rather than circuitous legalese:

We get to decide whether to use Your Content, and we don’t have to pay you, ask your permission, or tell you when we do. But that doesn’t mean we can use it however we want.

The difference being that an ad is trying to sway you to buy a product, but a credit or signature on art is "here's who created this thing THAT YOU ARE ALREADY EXPERIENCING".

I don't know why they can't distinguish between those.

Pixel phones can monitor phone calls for scam conversations (it runs locally on the phone, so audio doesn't get saved or uploaded).

Theme parks do use image recognition to flag obscene things in ride photos.

I once ran the windows Troubleshooter to get an old scanner working, and the final page told me to but a new scanner!

I plugged it in to a mini PC I use as a backup server and the scanner worked fine with Linux.

And another recommendation issue: I noticed that my Windows laptop has a "reduce your carbon footprint" settings section that tells me to reduce power settings, screen brightness etc. but it's completely lacking a "stop giving me AI search results in Bing" section.

Best phone sync (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by bandwidthcrisis@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Edit: Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to try sticking with syncthing and try the fork of the UI and see if that keeps everything working.

I want to sync files between my linux PC and Android phones (mostly for Obsidian notes).

Can anyone recommend a good real-time sync?

I've been trying syncthing, but despite turning off battery optimization for the app, it rarely sees the phone as connected. I don't want to have to remember to check syncthing every time I edit a note.

I use resilio for syncing between PCs but it looks like it has a high battery usage on the phone, as if it is frequently polling for changes.

I use FolderSync for occasional scheduled syncs (e.g. updating my MP3s from the server to my phone), but a scheduled sync either is frequent enough to affect battery or it risks sync conflicts.

Cloud services such as OneDrive, Dropbox and Google Drive don't show up as big battery drains, so I assume that they use change notifications from the OS instead.

Are there any real-time 2-way sync apps for phone that don't have big battery drain and are not for cloud providers?

I grew up knowing a fishcake as being fish sandwiched between two slices of potato covered in batter.

But when I ventured out into the wider world beyond Sheffield, fishcakes were strange breaded minced-up fish things.

Was my whole childhood a lie?
