OMG we need to stop. It’s gotten too real now. The only saving graces are that this is a day old post on Lemmy and so venture capitalists are unlikely to still see it.
But damned if I don’t think Anker could make something out of this.
You start at $30 which is plenty for the product. Hell the single yearly supply shouldn’t cost that much. Then overtime you slowly increase and changed rates for new subscribers.
Eventually you’ll have to implement location locks - can’t ship cables to more than one addresss. Plus you really don’t want people sharing or giving out cables to friends - so maybe the cables need to be smart and somehow phone home?
That would be nice cause then we could capture some user data and maybe target some advertising
It’s just unoriginal thinking. What does every business want? Lots of cash that comes in automatically on a known schedule. How can we do that? Have our customers subscribe. What will they subscribe for? Hmm lifetime speakers? Lifetime cable replacement?
Side note business idea: subscription usb power bricks. We send you a variety of cables that work for everything. If one breaks we send you another. $30/yr
Never worry about broken cables again!
This is what one should expect from someone obsessed with crocs.
Best to throw that away. Good job keeping it from affecting the performance of your pc.
Speculation on my part but i think it’s the same thing as Boeing really. They didn’t have any real competition for so long and they started cutting out the engineers who innovated to improve stock price.
Is it almost our collective birthday?
Uh, no. Consumers don’t care at all. Executives and marketing folks are the ones that have decided that it has to be in there.
You had me for the first half
That was my thinking lol. I have one 360 camera and it’s 2k. The rest of the cameras are 4k. But when biting the bullet and doing cameras it seemed stupid to cheap out on some. I’ve surely gone overkill. That being said i wouldn’t buy too much into the AI stuff. The non AI camera still detects stuff. Perhaps not as well.
Yea it’s still worth it for the interface which is so much better than other systems I’ve seen.
Yes they kept canceling my orders and forbidding me from ordering ;). I believe all is well now. The black cameras look so nice… really looks similar to some lighting fixtures so blends in well.
I have a handful of the AI Pros adopted to an UNVR. The new animal detection is clutch in the morning seeing what wildlife I had around the night before. But even without that it’s just a nice interface and i like how it’s totally local and subscription-less. Of course I know there is a high price to entry.
Love my UniFi cameras.
Good for them.
CDs degrade over time and so aren’t the best way to archive data if you know you will need it again. If it’s just an ‘in case’ then it may be ok. Best bet is to buy a USB disk and then keep a second copy of it offsite. Also best practice to not use two of the same manufacturer drive.
A bit more investment and effort but the UniFi talk line has a pretty good setup for small businesses.
