What would you build if you didn't need a server and the app just worked?

Watching a funeral / celebration of life 5,000 miles away via zoom and seeing yourself on the projector in the background in a photo with the person who's lying in the casket is a whole new experience. Weird but beautiful.

Jesus would've hated elections because it forces people to compromise their values and view their neighbors as enemies. Discuss.

Everyone spazzin' out over how insecure everything turned out to be and I'm just sitting here like "see?"

Only 2 legit OPSEC assumptions:
1) All your stuff is compromised;
2) Apart from point 1, never assume anything.

Actually taking the time to check out Roblox, and it has a few decent games. But multiplayer always sucks because it seems you're just crushing kids.

People in Paraguay protest after their money disappears into thin air 🇵🇾
> Ueno Bank, which held money of 60% of the adult population was shut down by the govt for financial trouble
> People lost their life savings and even the govt lost retirement money kept in the bank for elderly
> Govt is now promising to reimburse some money to the poor, but the rich will still lose their entire wealth
Paraguay has a PCI ~$10k, which some bhosads will claim must make it a paradise 😁

URGENT : Wilson Joseph, chef du gang 400 Mawozo en Haïti, a été capturé ce soir par les forces militaires du Salvador, à la suite d'une opération nocturne. 🇸🇻 bravo @nayibbukele 👏👏👏
Of all the posts on here I've read over the years that didn't happen, this one must've happened the absolute least.
Grok bot found a hidden camera and microphone inside our Tesla taxi. my wife was in the back seat on the phone with her bank. the camera was pointed at her screen, every word she said was being transcribed on a server in Hong Kong, and someone was watching it live. i checked the account it uploaded to. same account. 212 cars.
⠀
the ride felt off. the driver used her name before she told him. i opened my laptop and asked Grok to scan every wifi and bluetooth device around us.
⠀
→ wifi → 14 networks
→ bluetooth → 23 devices
→ open hotspot → 'IPC_7F3A' → a cheap shenzhen ip-camera module
→ one unnamed bluetooth device → -41 dBm → not a phone
⠀
we drove 2.1 km. the signal never changed. it was inside the car.
⠀
→ device 1 → dashboard vent → inside the air freshener
→ device 2 → rear headrest → 40 cm from my wife's head → microphone
→ camera angle → the back seat, at phone-screen height
→ not a Tesla part → aftermarket, plugged in by someone
⠀
the car had free wifi. my wife was connected to it. so was the camera.
⠀
→ upload every 30 seconds → 47.243.***.18 → Hong Kong
→ 1.8 MB per upload → video and audio
→ audio → speech-to-text → keyword filter
→ keywords → card, code, password, pin, address
→ live stream → 1 viewer online → right now
⠀
i stopped scrolling. the 1 didn't go away.
⠀
i asked Grok to trace the account it uploaded to.
⠀
→ account → fl33t_***
→ 212 cameras → all moving → all in cars
→ 14 cities → mostly airport routes after 10pm
→ 31,000 rides recorded in 7 months
→ every ride auto-tagged → bank, crypto, home address
⠀
then Grok found our ride. and the one before it.
⠀
→ tagged HIGH VALUE → 4 minutes ago
→ transcript → her bank call → card ending 4417 → "the code from the sms"
→ a second recording of her → same car → 19 days ago
→ drop-off point on that ride → our home address
⠀
that's how the driver knew her name.
⠀
→ next stop → a telegram channel
→ 9,400 buyers → $25 per high-value ride
→ 3 rides from this same car already sold today
⠀
what Grok did next:
⠀
→ saved 41 files of evidence → timestamps and gps track
→ blocked card 4417 → bank fraud team notified
→ 11 minutes later → someone tried to spend $3,800 on it → declined
→ filed a safety report with the ride app → driver and plate
→ drafted a police report → ip, account, channel, both recordings
⠀
the driver was suspended 6 minutes after the report. we got out at the next light and walked home the long way.
⠀
211 other cars on that account are still driving tonight. most of them are waiting at airports.
⠀
if you take taxis at night, open your laptop next time you get in. it takes 2 minutes.
⠀
the prompt is in the comments. save it and send it to anyone who rides alone
