| IsambardPrince | I was working in a restaurant in a mall, and the owner was months behind on rent. He was going to close without telling us. | Sep 27 00:20 |
| IsambardPrince | The mall, knowing that the guy was an asshole, sent one of their security guard with a "gentle reminder/ notice" to vacate the business and turn in the keys by whatever date. | Sep 27 00:20 |
| IsambardPrince | The security guard taped it to our kitchen doors and helpfully gave each of us a personal copy. Just before lunch rush. | Sep 27 00:20 |
| IsambardPrince | We immediately closed the restaurant, raided the fridge, gave the guard our keys and the cash register, then left. | Sep 27 00:20 |

| IsambardPrince | A trademark complaint aimed at a surveillance map has landed less than 24 hours after Flock Safetyβs own network came under fire in the U.S. Senate. | Sep 27 19:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Cybersecurity researcher Joshua Michael built what is now the most detailed public map of Flockβs infrastructure, using location coordinates he says came from a snapshot of the companyβs own database, archived in December 2025. His Flock Surveillance Map identifies more than 170,000 cameras and over 130,000 supporting devices, including acoustic sensors and equipment linking third-party cameras, totaling roughly 300,000 devices. | Sep 27 19:59 |
| IsambardPrince | That figure dwarfs what the company has told the public. Flock has said it operates more than 120,000 cameras nationwide. | Sep 27 19:59 |
| IsambardPrince | The complaint arrived on Thursday, one day after the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime and Counterterrorism held a hearing titled βAlways Watching: Flockβs Nationwide AI Surveillance Network.β Flock CEO Garrett Langley was invited to testify. He did not show, nor did the CEOs of Axon, Motorola Solutions or Verkada. | Sep 27 19:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Michael was notified by Doppel, a firm describing itself as an βAI-native social engineering defense platform,β which said it was acting on Flockβs behalf and demanded he stop using the βFlock Safetyβ name and take the map offline, citing customer confusion. | Sep 27 19:59 |
| IsambardPrince | Michael disputed Flockβs public claims about its data security, telling The Intercept the company said it had never suffered a breach even after he had already pulled its device database. βThat leaves two possibilities,β he said. βEither they knew and chose not to disclose it for fear of bad press, or they didnβt know I exfiltrated the data at all.β | Sep 27 19:59 |
| IsambardPrince | This is not Flockβs first attempt to challenge a mapping project. In early 2025, the company sent a cease-and-desist to Will Freeman, creator of the crowdsourced DeFlock map, over trademark dilution. The Electronic Frontier Foundation rejected the demand, calling it βbirdcage liner,β and Freeman kept his map online. | Sep 27 20:00 |

| IsambardPrince | Trump had a meeting with Xi. Trump re-routed F-35 parts to Hong Kong and Xi gave us some pandas. | Sep 27 20:14 |
| IsambardPrince | They're the best pandas. | Sep 27 20:14 |
| IsambardPrince | Some would say the greatest. | Sep 27 20:14 |
| IsambardPrince | Xi also said 100,000 visas for US students to study in Chinese universities. I guess it's probably cheaper to get on a plane, live in China, and study in Chinese universities now, thanks to Republicans attacking US universities, under the guise of "getting rid of Chinese friendship programs". | Sep 27 20:15 |
| IsambardPrince | Sort of like how it's cheaper to fly to China, stay in a nice hotel, and pay cash for an MRI, than it is to get an MRI in the United States, using your health insurance. | Sep 27 20:15 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | how much is it | Sep 27 20:17 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | asking for mr. MRI | Sep 27 20:17 |
| IsambardPrince | Oh God, I had to have one on my shoulder before surgery. | Sep 27 20:37 |
| IsambardPrince | Before Medicare the cash price was something like $7900 for an MRI. | Sep 27 20:37 |
| IsambardPrince | Medicare adjusted it down to like $1000-something? | Sep 27 20:37 |
| IsambardPrince | I want to say I paid like $100-200, something like that. | Sep 27 20:38 |
| IsambardPrince | But Medicare is better than any insurance you can buy in the US for about the last 20 years. | Sep 27 20:38 |
| IsambardPrince | Eventually you get to your annual max out of pocket on private insurance. | Sep 27 20:38 |
| IsambardPrince | That's the point where it's useful. | Sep 27 20:38 |
| IsambardPrince | But you don't get there until you're out $9,000-$10,000. | Sep 27 20:38 |

| IsambardPrince | schestowitz[TR2], Anyway, the state thought they had me over a barrel and that my psychiatrist would have some sort of "special treatment plan". They didn't know what he was. | Sep 27 21:57 |
| IsambardPrince | They said "therapist" in the agreement. | Sep 27 21:57 |
| IsambardPrince | Said "see therapist [name of the doctor] and follow treatment plan and bring back letter from therapist" | Sep 27 21:57 |
| IsambardPrince | So I went to him and he said "He's a patient of mine. I handle 15 minute medication management sessions every 6 months. That's the plan." | Sep 27 21:58 |
| IsambardPrince | So I turned it in and there was nothing that they could do about it. | Sep 27 21:58 |
| IsambardPrince | Because I did what they said to. | Sep 27 21:58 |
| IsambardPrince | I was talking to my lawyer in the attorney-client room about that before I signed that agreement. I said "He's not a therapist, he's a psyychiatrist that does medication management.....but they don't know that do they?" | Sep 27 21:59 |
| IsambardPrince | And the lawyer said "No they don't and that's on them." | Sep 27 21:59 |
| IsambardPrince | MinceR, ^ | Sep 27 21:59 |
| IsambardPrince | If you define "therapist" broadly, a doctor who prescribes medicine is a "therapist" because the medicine is a "therapy", so technically I just let them paint themselves into a corner. | Sep 27 22:00 |
| IsambardPrince | In my experience if you don't say exactly what you mean, you can't mean what you say. Someone was hurrying up to draft that and did not consider what I could do with that language. | Sep 27 22:03 |
