It would be nice to see some sat-nav apps adding an 'Avoid Flock' option that uses the camera location data to route you around them. Although, I don't know how ubiquitous they are, so it may make routing through some big cities impossible!


When that youtuber Benn Jordan released a video describing techniques to covertly throw off Flock cameras (such as obscuring part of the plate with dirt or mud but still allowing it to be clearly read by humans), we saw a Florida legislature update the rulings in record time to overcome these techniques.

You add this feature and then the next day all "blind spots" will be covered with additional Flock cameras.


Adam goes into depth on this in an episode of his podcast: https://adams-morning-walk.transistor.fm/episodes/we-had-six...


I didn’t know he started a new podcast!


I didn't know about Imginn, so thanks!


Hundreds? Really? I can see making two or three before giving up, but to build hundreds..


I never give up. Tried soo many different diodes, but the ‘good’ ones seem very susceptible to clones/fakes since they arent manufactured anymore. There is a company that makes dedicated IC’s that can harvest the emf very efficiently, bit expensive though… and a black box..


Especially if they never worked.


The biggest difference that stood out to me was that the fuel compositions are almost exactly opposite; 85/15 ethanol/gasoline for Indy and 10/90 for F1.

I was able to find plenty of articles saying that next year F1 will move to a "100% sustainable fuel", but none that actually mentioned the composition. Is it likely to move closer to the make-up of the Indy fuel?


Every engine supplier has their own fuel supplier contract so the fuels won't be completely identical.


I thought the same thing. I also found it surprising that the number of people on a smoking break was quite a bit higher than either of those - I wonder how many transition from intimacy to smoke break :D


It would be interesting if it could fluctuate depending on birth rates at different times of day in different countries. That way, it could at least have a bit of dynamism if, for example, India had the highest global birthrate and most births there occured during daylight hours.


Why even bother with one of those crusty old 3-letter agencies, when you can go straight to the top via your very own 4-letter (1 better!) agency: D.O.G.E.


For efficiency, it should be referred to as an extended 3-letter agency.


Debile overlords getting eager?

DODGE that shit, lasso 'em in!


Also a sure-fire way to get some irate drivers banging on your front door, given that it would be easy to work out which house the photo was taken from.


Then can make a video beating them up and post it on twitter.


One very rich man is pushing hard to implement some.
