I can't think of anything, that's kind of the options isn't it? Buy your neighbors switchbots or reolink cameras as a gift? Them switching by choice is persuasion... forcing them to switch without giving them a choice is vandalism. I can't fathom a 3rd category, unless you can like... sue the hell out of amazon and force a recall, but pretty sure the legal system doesn't work that way.

I believe chaos creates that smile... I think it's a reference to the old troll face memes.

you can use voice and video rooms to my understanding of it, and yeah it can do calls. I haven't really tested it much as my matrix server is just me and my wife, and neither of us are often out of eachothers sites very long.

I wish democrats had a spine and a sense of humor... I'd say "OK I'll take the unfreeze and I promise to name the airport after you, put it in writing and we will do this deal".

then announce the new "Trump is in the Epstein files" airport.

True, I guess the process is the studios have deals/threats to sue the ISPs if they don't do it.

Either way regardless of their reason or motives. The ISP is the one that's in charge of sending the threat and dealing the punishment, and again the key point is (again region may vary, do research on your ISP), but typically they send a warning first. So in short, if you just want to get started quickly, you can just start torrenting with no VPN (you should probably seed things for as little time as possible), and hope you can afford a VPN before you get the threatening letter, if you do get the threatening letter... then stop all peer 2 peer based piracy until you can afford to do it safer.

Honestly explains a lot of my younger self. I always prided myself as the snitch...

In school, regularly was hated because I was the one to destroy academic cheating groups.

One of my closer female friends cheated on her idiot boyfriend that I barely could stand... I ratted her out.

Later on that same idiot boyfriend was at least trying to cheat on his newer girlfriend... also ratted him out.

Later on idiot friends girlfriend was my girlfriend for 14 years... However my blind sense of justice also causes me to think that the world works when I'm not in the right position.. I wound up paying through the nose for her to visit a female friend across the country... who, didn't actually exist. Afterwards she broke up with me, and almost imidiately had a new boyfriend... coincidentally from the location she had just flown to... and they were married within a few months.

Got an awesome son out of the deal though... Honestly the part that eats at me, is just the realization that, there's almost certainly people that knew what was happening... that just, ignored it.

True, I suppose maybe there's an alternate route... like allowing WW1 to happen, but perhaps, finding a way to change the Treaty of Versailles to be less punative and leave more room for economic growth.

Of course there's so many variables still. Without nukes being used in ww2, would the cold war have stayed so cold.

Also worth noting with that definition of time travel, logically it would seem, time travel would be self eliminating.

IE, I go back in time, stop whatever I would consider the worse event in history... thus putting the world on a trajectory where myself or whoever invented the time machine no longer happens, leading to someone else inventing it, going back for a different reason, also changing the trajectory of history also eliminating the events leading to his time machine's creation. Effectively the dice keep re-rolling until we get a world where the time machine is either not invented or not used, most probably early human extinction.

At first I thought you meant that killing hitler would effectively kill everyone born after hitler since the conditions of their birth didn’t exist anymore.

Well I would say, actually a really good point there, though I wouldn't say "everyone born after hitler", I guess really depends on one if WW2 happens. IE you kill hitler, but Heinrich Himmler lead the nazi party and history played very similarly. then you could expect possibly generations to unfold almost identically to the original timeline.

But yeah it's the variation of the art career concept, except that I find the premise that hitlers actions were the cause... Fascism and Hitler were, a symptom of a broken country. Prevent the collapse, and the germans don't vote for Hitler.

Honestly I oppose the idea of going back in time and killing hitler. To me butterfly effect and everything. Just break into the hospital and swap hitler and another babies places, and poof you won't get the same combination of nature and nurture that created hitler.

Or even more important, wouldn't stopping WW1 be the key there. No historian here but there's a lot of complicated economic stuff that happened after WW1 that leads to the rise of facism. Would seem to me killing hitler (or preventing his rise in other ways), would just wind up with a new guy in the same roll.

2 fronts I'd say.

1. Yeah it makes it clear someone breaking in, was doing the effort to conciously get into something that he wasn't permitted to rather than just, opened the wrong door.

Also would point out, low knowledge low effort crooks, really 9/10 situations there's an easier way to get in than the lock. Your house is far more likely to be broken in by someone smashing a window rather than picking a lock.
