Though Anker is a chinese company. Definitely review the privacy policy and such.

Arlo has a solid stance on privacy but is definitely cloud based unless you get one of the older ones with a base station. Their products are also made in china though.

You could also do the whole Raspberry Pi Cam thing.

Interesting to consider that bit about the USDA and home pasteurizing eggs. I do a lot of ice cream/frozen custard style things and have used raw yolks before after using low temperature cooking via immersion circulator to "pasteurize" them first. I usually refer to Douglas Baldwin for a majority of this stuff. http://www.douglasbaldwin.com/sous-vide.html Though the first article that popped up on the search has some good reading on it from what I'm seeing. https://www.streetsmartkitchen.com/how-to-pasteurize-eggs-so...

Back in 2012 I tried the QR code on business card to download a vcard bit... it did not really garner any attention which was unfortunate. Seemed brilliant at the time. Could be I just was not an interesting individual though.

Restaurant wise it definitely is annoying when there is a QR code for a menu, another for the beer menu, and another for the specials. Even better when the printed out QR code is cut off and doesn't load correctly.

Seconding immersion circulator as a purchase. Joule by chefsteps is nice, and small enough to fit in a drawer. Entirely app controlled though and has visual doneness guides and recipes. Helps you get the feel for it for sure. Best part is you can cook from frozen too so if you forget to pull something out to defrost you can just add a little time to the bath.

Great topic, Check out Vinny from Vinesauce for a lot of good randomizer examples. He usually plays Zelda II around this time of year. Even watching someone else play such a game can inspire users to return to them. If you search around there is a website that has a big list of randomized games out there.

What is going on with the URL? Also this user submitted something along this RSA-240 factoring twice. Seems really phishy that they're using a .exe in the url.

Serving size 1 - Coming from Southeast US there is a rise in craft micro-breweries in many of the more 'hip' cities. These smaller locations tend to have groups of regulars who tend to know each other and provide such a 'service'. That being said I do agree with the thought of this phenomenon moving to the internet, things like city based slack chats work decently for this and these groups work to create physical meetups as well.
