How is it too expensive? Surely it’s generating way more profit than it would cost in value. How else could it be propping up the entire economy?
Itd have to be some kind of bubble and that would mean we were in a lottttt of danger and should reasses our use of it.
Nah we should just reduce our use because its too expensive and then stop thinking about it beyond that.
And as someone else pointed out in a different thread. No reselling disks or giving to friends.
Everyone has to buy their own downloaded copy per account.
And they dont have to soend the money for the reader. And the game company doesnt have to distribute hardware and can take more profit from the retailers.
Because im a nerd and like doing math too.
20,000,000,000 / 30 days in a month Divided by the 110,077 mapped alprs (theres definitely more than that)
Its 6056 scans per device on average per day. Or roughly 4.2 scans per minute per camera.
Keeping in mind theres definitely more cameras than that so the ratio is even more favorable. Definitely seems accurate enough for a news headline.
Nah those numbers are weak. If you think about how the scanner probably runs at 20-60hz or something you could x20-60 those numbers for every second they were scanned!
That said, theres at least 4 scanners at every intersection in the main city near me that are definitely scanning the same car 4 different ways every time it passes. So i could believe 670million scans a day.
About 670million times a day too many still.
Its been over a decade since i last sat in a hammock and read a book. Kinda excited for the internet to die now tbh.
The dongle itself connects to the mouse. As far as the computer is concerned, your mouse is plugged in (via the dongle)
If it were connected over bluetooth, you wouldnt need the dongle. Youd just pair the mouse to the pc directly.
Odds are the dongle is just using a standard 2.4ghz connection to the mouse like wifi/Bluetooth, but that doesnt matter for your question.
Def an interesting read.
The end bit for folks here:
Protecting yourself
Avoid switching servers more than once per pubkey (every 1-30days)
Force rotate your pubkey by logging out of the Mullvad app
“Scanning 20 billion vehicles a month” sounds like they scanned vehicles 20 billion times to meeee. Aint english grand friend.
