  • i am arguing what you proposed has not conformed to reality, that the actual result is already seen, and there is no defensive reason to allow inward facing cameras, there is only an additional risk when arguing culpability of an incident. and for that argument of ai helping to keep drivers alert, the full consequence of that thought has already played out as a detriment to truck drivers, with no noticeable gain





  • operating a vehicle runs on the assumption that the cars around you are operated in the realm of sanity. with acceptable human reaction the trained standard is a car distance of 3 seconds back. but that assumption is unblinking focus, which is not true in many cases. if you are preparing for a lane shift your attention is demanded by law elsewhere. break checking, or slamming unnecessarily on the break, does not defer guilt to the victim. the problem is that it’s hard to prove, unless you have a front facing camera which is a defensive measure. there is no defensive measure for an inward facing camera


  • except this sort of thing is already in use in amazon trucks to judge a driver at all times by an outside entity judgements made without context. why would you own something that can only make your case harder? you can’t not give it over as evidence if you have it. so it’s best not to have it.

    there is an accident because the car ahead of you slammed their breaks on the open freeway, causing a crash, in court they point that you were at the moment before the crash were checking your rear view mirror and not the road based on the eye tracking, and argue if you were looking forward you would have avoided the accident.

    or you could tape up the camera











  • i got a team speak 6 server running for my friend group. there are things i wish were better, but ultimately it’s really not that big of a deal. mainly it’s the separating the text chat from the voip servers, and the text chat not being hosted on my machine. but then again others would rather it was on a companies servers any way

    but now it’s just the work of pushing my friends to not stick around due to momentum and the whole “but discord retracted their decision! i don’t want to!”


  • i got the server up and running on my linux mini pc.

    the voice quality is great, and the video streaming is good, someone mentioned the resolution looked super smeared when they joined, but it corrected itself before i could ally tab look at it.

    i have found that an important detail is that the text chat is either directly attached to the voice channel, and to see/manipulate it you must jump into that channel, or there are global chats that are separate entities from the channel, even if handled by the same ui. once you find your friend server, make sure to book mark it as it’s not an automatic thing.

    also right now hosting your own server is preferable, as the explosion of users maxed out the us located servers, and japan is not an acceptable server spot.
