  • YouTube Premium is getting yet another price hike for users across the globe

  • you are not seeding by just leaving the window open on any peertube page. you are only seeding the specific video you have opened, if you have opened one, and probably not the complete video just the last segments you still have cached. this p2p sharing is mostly for when a certain video gets popular, to help with peek load, and for live streams. if the video was buffering for a long time it's probably because the server did not have enough upload bandwidth, and no other viewer had the video segments.

    there is another load balancing system that peertube supports, they can clone videos fromneach other and help serving them: https://docs.joinpeertube.org/admin/following-instances#platforms-redundancy

  • You buy a physical disc. It will not play until you update the console. This is a hard coded minimum version that is on the disc.

    the data is still available, somebody needs to figure out how to extract it and patch out the check, and it's playable again. the patch becomes easier to distribute than the full game, both because of its size, public judgment and maybe the legal situation too. the fact that you have the disk is effectively proof of ownership.

  • that's nothing like a crackdown. that's like saying, privacy policies are a crackdown on data brokers

  • Considering that the gen 1 ryzen 3 1200 (the lowest end model) is more than double the performance of the automotive processor in my car from 2023 (3.1ghz quad core vs 2.4ghz dual core)...

    what architecture is the CPU in the car? my smartphone is no 3 GHz, and it too can handle image recognition.

    But, the car does do some onboard image recognition to support Hands-free driving, so there is enough compute onboard to manage that.

    possibly hardware accelerated with some specialized hardware. there's this thing called google coral, it can be connected through PCIe or USB, and can do the heavy lifting for multiple cameras.

  • I am legally blind. I literally cannot use desktop Linux due to lack of accessibility, but somehow that's my fault.

    I understand if it would be a burden, but @shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip could probably give some advice. I think they are legally blind too.

  • We should be able to view the video/image without going to the details.

    if you tap the image preview it should expand, I mean it does that today

  • that's unfeasible. instance bans are a useful tool. the solution to this is more instances.

  • to add to the image processing, first gen ryzen desktop CPUs can handle basic object classification on live camera feed. not effortlessly, but they handle it, and performance has only ever improved with time.

  • Pictures are expensive (data wise)

    not really. you don't want to keep frames without movement, faces or license plates. then you can throw away most frames from a 60 FPS recording. 2 frames per second is better than nothing for running a portable surveillance station. then you can encode them in some efficient format with acceptable compression, and it's not that much anymore. massive 5G rollout was explicitly happening for IoT devices, to be able to handle the load.

    expensive (data wise), and on-device facial identification is not very accurate

    debatable. google picasa had pretty good on-device facial recognition more than a decade ago, on average desktop computer hardware. ente.io runs something similar in their smartphone app today, fully locally. detects faces very well even in memes.tech that can go into a smartphone can go into any smart car too, and likely does.

    But how much is that information valuable?

    plenty valuable for "partners" like clearview AI and flock, or if you want to become a competitor in that field.

    What percent of the time is a car even driving?

    that's a wrong question. the correct question is what percent of the time is a car outside of the garage. lots of cars are parked on the street all the time while not driving.

    Is palantir even set up to ingest that kind of disparate moving data sources?

    how the fuck no. It's less data than what people upload daily to youtube, funded from government money basically.

    and then put up less noticeable cameras...

    like cameras appearing nowhere any time, like camera cars.
