in a period of 21 months, ShotSpotter resulted in police acting on dead-end reports over 40,000 times.
Lol, what a scam.
I was clicking the link convinced that the issue is not the tool, but the "experts" reacting to it. But 20k fucking false alarms a year?
I wonder what would happen if you use a bunch of Bluetooth speakers playing gunshots on max volume
Kids these days... Pfft!
You don't need Bluetooth to play sounds out of speakers, LOL! They have a limited range anyway.
Use token ring over RG-6U coaxial 👍
I was thinking LoRa, store the gun sounds locally. Use microcontrollers :p
Rachel, "LatinX" isn't a fuckin word. This is why you're still an intern
If that's your takeaway from the article then you need to get the fuck off the internet.
yeah nah, we need to call that shit out everywhere it appears regardless of context or getting off the internet won't be enough to escape it.
