do you have root access to YOUR phone?

Yes. On a Pixel 9 Pro Fold.

Ironically, Google Pixels are among the few (US available) brands that still let you fully unlock the BL

And re: phones—you can see that’s a camera. Also, they have a bright LED that indicates recording. These glasses do not.

Umm when was the last time you…you know what, let’s do an experiment, start recording a video on your phone, flip it over and look at the back and tell me where the red recording LED is LOL

Anyways, the other commenter here cited specific cases and a supreme court ruling which tied recording in a public space as a 1st amendment issue (which I didn’t know either) so now short of a new federal law passed by congress, it ain’t changing. It’s not my opinion, it’s a fact.

Lol that has nothing to do with the other, and courts have already set precedent for recording in public spaces and have generally ruled that with current laws there’s no expectation of privacy in public spaces.

The fact the camera being on someones face is almost assuredly going to be an insignificant factor in any future court case considering the sheer amount of cameras pointing at you as-is from phones (How do you know if someone is just on their phone or recording?) and security cameras and now that businesses are heavily investing in ever more cameras for their AI BS…yea, sorry to say, but nothing is going to change on that front for the foreseeable future.

Source on that? Last I checked it was nationwide that there was no expectation to privacy in public places

Google Glass was way back in like 2013, 10 years later people just expect to have cameras everywhere in public since nearly everyone now has a good camera in their pocket that they’re also using to actually take pics and videos all the time of food, places, buildings, scenery, selfies etc.

Each one of us is probably in the background of who knows many peoples pictures by now

105 gigs is nothing, you can get a 1TB external drive for ~60$

I’m getting to the point of becoming a data hoarder

What’s wrong with that‽ Join us on the dark side (according to giant corporations anyways), we have milk and cookies!

Just a simple lowly troll, nothing of importance to see here

Yea if nothing else hopefully it’ll at least point you in the right direction

Use Librewolf and Mull instead.

And keep an eye on the Ladybird browser, eventually FF forks will die should FF go full-tilt enshittification, but hopefully not till Ladybird is fully ready

Ladybird is a completely new open source browser with it’s own from scratch engine, so that’s one that hasn’t been forked from any other browser

Labybird is a completely new upcoming open source browser, complete with its own from scratch engine

Theres also Servo an open source engine led by the Linux Foundation

There’s always the Ladybird browser and an independent open source browser engine called Servo that’s under The Linux Foundation

This is just the beginnings of the enshittification of FF. There are others out there, Ladybird for example, deserves our attention being built completely from scratch engine and all. Though it’s not slated to become fully usable until 2026 because, they’re building the engine from scratch lol

Oh but wait! That non-customizable account number user ID that you have to wait for in the mail is definitely top notch security!

“We serve food sanity here, sir”

If the switch supports it, you login with local credentials first, navigate to its config page and configure LDAP under there. You’ll tell it the IP address of the LDAP server as well as give it its client side configuration. You give it a bind account credentials (a dedicated service account with as minimal permissions as needed) that it uses to lookup the users on the server as well as Organization Unit paths and such

When a user goes to login the switch will query the provided credentials against the LDAP server, if it’s valid the LDAP server will respond with a success and the switch will log the user in

Generally there is always a local account fallback in the event that the LDAP server is unavailable for whatever reason

Your confusion is confusing me lol

I don’t see how this would work as it relies upon every single device on the network supporting a particular authentication mechanism.

Wdym? That’s not a thing, you can have some devices on LDAP some with local logins and some with OIDC or any other combination. Authentication is generally an application layer thing and switches operate at layer 2 maybe 3 if it’s doing some routing. As long as your network has a functioning DHCP server the web UI of the switch will be able to communicate with the LDAP server that you configure it to

Do you have time to build something partially from scratch? I could see repurposing an old laptop, disassemble it and make the screen face outwards with the board affixed to the back of the screen lid.

Might take some creative routing with the internal display cable, but I’ve taken apart tons of laptops where this would be doable, especially after you’ve discarded the plastic chassis

Though you’ll still need a frame of some kind, unless you like the “raw-tech” look
