I knew this, I just disagree completely. Flipping the image doesn't help, but changing the focal length does. It's not the mirrored image, it's the lens distortion

Okay, where's it at?

While true, an average speaker isn't sensitive enough to get quality or understandable sound out of, and that's assuming software can be rewritten to accept input from them.

This isn't a realistic privacy concern imo, but it is a novel fun fact, and if you have a 3.5mm jack you can play around with it on a PC

Maybe a knee high fence. It will slow the most basic and casual botting, and maybe eliminate some of that very very basic ROI, but it won't do anything to stop the real professionals.

We see countless examples in games. It's an arms race and all you can do is mitigation. As long as there's something to be gained from botting, they'll exist. It's only a matter how much.

Nothing, it's just additional friction and cost to create them

A lot of people have already pointed out that the person saying it is an important detail. If your mom says you're good at python, I'm going to get a very different idea about your skill level compared to your boss saying it.

Unless you are selling yourself in an interview context, I think it's very poor form to qualify your own skill level. Let the skill speak for itself, it's enough to say that you 'do python'. Saying you're good at something often comes off as braggadocios more than it is informative. If you must give context, it's better to talk about how much experience you have, or other objective metrics

Qualifiers are too context dependant and no matter where your skill level is at, you wont ever have enough context to know how good you actually are, because you can't know what you don't know.

I've got the most patchy bs beard ever, but since letting it grow over covid I haven't been able to keep it shaved. I barely recognize myself anymore under the beard.

Neither is the steam deck user base, or would-be Linux converts. What's your point?
