Today, The Onion ate.

I used to work for a company that would put temporary cameras out to record particular intersections or stretches of road. It was all temporary traffic safety studies, not an active search or dragnet surveillance, so my conscience was mostly clean. It was still wild to see how much technology can be quickly put out to record and track drivers.

On top of cameras we had Bluetooth sniffers that would get put up on every leg of a 4way intersection and just collect Bluetooth hardware addresses. It doesn't identify you, but it is able to tell which direction you took at that 4 way because your Bluetooth address only showed up on two of the boxes.

One of the more surprising methods for hiding cameras were those big orange traffic barrels. When they stack on top of each other, there's a 6-8in gap between the tops where you can stash stuff. If you ever see two of those barrels stacked on each other, look for a little window cut out near the top of the top one. There might be a camera sitting on top of the bottom barrel and hidden by the top barrel. They'd point it to capture back license plates, so you don't see it when driving towards it.

I'll pick up the pedantic torch. Trains are made of train cars, I'd argue each one is a separate car or vehicle even though they're strapped together.

I feel like The ISS ticks a lot of the boxes for a vehicle though, how big is that?

Maybe I have to go to the bathroom and I see a janitor making their way towards the same bathroom. We both start an all out sprint for the bathroom door. In this moment we are both adversaries, but his goal is to clean and my goal is to evacuate my bowels. Sure we are competing for the same resource, the bathroom, but our objectives with the bathroom are different. You could also say we are almost playing a different game, he's trying to not spill his mop bucket and I'm clenching my cheeks.

I dont know. I agree with your point, but I think there's more benefits to keeping it intact. Maybe a middle ground is to mark up the photo with 'SCAM' 'DO NOT USE' etc, but leave the address intact. It's a phishing scam, so the address is the only info anyone has to potentially track them down. Maybe the address was used somewhere else, and there it can be tied to a person. The top comment here is someone already creeping on the address, which confirms:

1. people do do this legwork in the crypto world, there's probably exchange admins and the like punching the address into their own databases and just not informing us because they didn't find anything.

2. Noone has been dumb enough to send to that address yet, even before it was getting called out as a scam

If it's censored noone can do even a cursory glance into it

Cheers to that. I've gone through the same thing. My tech work had me installing wireless equipment on highrise roofs in a major city. One time I went down from the roof to the top floor penthouse to set up the owner big wig dude with our service. It was an absolutely beautiful place, and I was just taking it in, and was admiring the view from the balcony. He started showing off the view and really went on about it, inviting me out to the balcony. I should have taken the hint that it was important to him, and just gone with it, but I mentioned I just came from a better view and pointed up half joking and it completely deflated the dude. He probably isn't even allowed up there on the roof, and I had a 360 view up there. I tried to recover and fumbled out something like 'but to wake up to it every morning, wow' but the damage was done, I one upped the millionaire on accident.

This isn't an argument or even a discussion. You're just beating a dead horse and the rest of us are sick of seeing it.

This discussion exists because dumbass Russian apologists won't shut up about it

I encourage you to google the paradox of tolerance, because you sound like a Fox News propagandist saying 'so much for the tolerant left am I right?'

Russia made its bed. The response from the US is exactly that - a response. Even the most tolerant society will HAVE TO be intolerant towards intolerance in order to exist.

You can understand this or not, I really don't care. But at least someone attempted to explain to you why you're getting buried in downvotes.

So I can get close enough to airdrop photos of my penis to the president of the United States. What did you think I was going to use it for?

This was part of the fictional operating system in the book Little Brother. I think it inspired similar features in a particular real life Linux build too

She was probably asking to be Ariel and got Arial instead

Lol tell that to Tina Peters.
