  • I set up, many years ago, a RPI1 with USB cameras attached. Running the software “Motion”. I put Zerotier on it and made a little web page that shows the cameras. I could have the page show any USB cameras on my network, but I think the RPI1 is too low powered for more than two.

    Motion will record, or only record when motion is detected and there’s a whole lot of options.

    Mine is still running almost ten years later, with only a small upgrade to the cameras.















  • I know many people, including me, that fall victim to the manipulation of advertising.

    Back in the olden days, it was “here is my product, and this is the price, if you like it buy from this store” Now it’s not just the actual ad, it’s product placement in tv and movies, celebrity endorsement, influencers, and all that.

    Just remember that advertising costs money, and that is in the price of the product. Products that don’t advertise can easily be better value.
