I'm pretty proud of my work for my community. I specifically help people like traveling nurses and displaced families. I only charge enough to cover my cost.
You guys assume I make a profit for my home. I barely cover my cost(some months losing money) and only do this to help my community. There are needs for temporary housing that aren't hotels and Airbnb's.
I don't understand why you guys are flaming me. My house is used as a short term housing. I started doing it during covid for traveling nurses when nobody would rent to them. Then I still continued for people who were displaced. More recently I have someone from Maui and needed temporary housing while they were rebuilding their home.
I would have sold it but only do this for tax purposes. I'm well below the market only covering my mortgage and taxes.
Not all of us are assholes and leeches. There is clearly a need that hotels and Airbnb's are leeching over. Some of us care about our community and are not trying to better ourselves.
Frigate on Home Assistant has something like this. It can track how long a "thing" has been sitting there. I use it to track how long my car has been sitting in the driveway. Frigate also can do person tracking and animal tracking. I'm sure I can make it so it tracks how long a person has been sitting in the frame.
As far as the barista and how many drinks they have made. This is a very difficult task. Technically speaking they can have the espresso machine trigger an action when a cup is made. Even then it's damn near impossible to accurately track that trigger to the correct person in frame.
Essentially this proof of concept is possible but it is highly inaccurate and should be treated as a novelty and not scientific data, at least with the current technologies we have.
Super sad storytime. Back in the early 2000s, I had an awesome Sony camera phone with a real xenon flash.
I probably had thousands of photos on it on an SD card that has been through multiple phones.
Suddenly, my mom started feeling pains in her stomach area and was later diagnosed with staged 4 cancer.
After she passed away, I accidentally fell into a lake and broke my phone and lost every photo and video of my mom. I only have a video of her voice that I posted on Facebook while she was washing my dog for the first time.
Since then, I haven't lost a single photo. Each photo and video is saved in 4 different locations, in a B2 bucket and in different countries.
I still have this old phone. I'm hoping one day I can retrieve it. Until then, always save your photos in multiple places.

How so? Please explain. Maybe we can find some common ground. This is your opportunity to ask questions to someone you hate.
