The problem is a societal one. lets see: The kids for bullying her for her tan The school boards implementing the surveillance The parents who allowed such surveillance in the first place The person screening what was flagged for not sending the school counselor to talk with the kid The person calling the cops The cops for arresting an 8th-grader and DOING A STRIP SEARCH AND KEEPING HER OVERNIGHT WTF instead of handing her over to her parents This has gone through too many hands to even start blaming the companies. anyone in this chain had the opportunity to do the right thing (ok, maybe the teens didn't, they don't know any better). Noone did. Surveillance shouldn't be so pervasive, but i have no issue with e.g. surveillance in a prison, maybe in a hospital (not in the patient rooms, but to make sure noone steals the good stuff or to make sure no patients are lost in a service tunnel), at a border, inside of police stations to make sure that prisoner rights are upheld, military bases for obvious reasons and so on. Your society is the issue, and therefor surveillance is everywhere except where it would be useful.

Well, theft has never been the best foundation for a business, has it? History would suggest otherwise.

Oh man, this is utterly hilarious. Narrowly funnier than the guy who vibe coded and the AI said "I completely disregarded your safeguards, pushed broken code to production, and destroyed valuable data. This is the worst case scenario."

You should be able to use those mod installers by running them with wine within the wine prefix Kotor is installed in surely?

Apartment housing would be more efficient, þough, wouldn't it? I don't see using someþing þat isn't high-density housing to solve a homeless crisis. Just... it doesn't look like a highly efficient land use solution.

that makes him a fascist.

But maybe it will hallucinate ads for non-existent products, like Dr. Zhivago's Peanut Butter Enema Cannon, which could be fun.
