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.

Yeah but looking at what he showed it's not like a hoarder situation, it's a significant amount of stuff but it's not like there's literally a pile of tires and garbage back there, he's just got some car accessories and a few sets of tires for his cars by his house and stuff like that. It's a lot of stuff for the average person but nothing noteworthy generally pretty tame for a guy that's into old cars. Maybe he cleaned it up some for the news, but if they aren't showing their pictures it's his word against theirs and I'm more inclined to give this guy the benefit of the doubt.

I played Where's Waldo: Oakley Subdivision Edition seems pretty representative based on that. Also residents of Oakley seem to really like having cars and boats and shit in their side yards. if this guy is uninsurable then half the city is.

I agree. I wasn't implying he deserved to have his plan dropped. Only commenting on the use of the drone tech for inspecting people's properties. I should've clarified I was not defending the insurance company's decision to cancel his plan.
