A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

MODERATORS
I’ve often wondered if the authorities would care about a community run FOSS plate scanner network that publicly advertised the location of all government vehicles. I mean, it’s public data, right? A nice web front end with built in pattern detection shouldn’t be too bad. Plate scanners can be built with Raspberry Pi’s, so it’s fairly cheap commodity hardware. You’d need a good number though. Coupled with additional hardware, you could put them on cars as well I suppose.

My Zillow bike score is like 0 or something unfortunately.
Put some address numbers to the left and right of your plate. Map out the LPRs in your neighborhood, and post flyers about them so people see.
