i just had to record a video of me reading out numbers and rotating my head to access my bank account.
I hate surveillance capitalism so much.

i love the future

fyi, since many people don't know this exists:
Almost all computer screens made in the last decade support DDC/CI. (The Display Data Channel Command Interface).
You can use it to control stuff like the backlight brightness without fiddling with the awful screen buttons and OSD.

On Linux once you load the ddcci kernel module the screens appear in /sys/class/backlights and can be controlled like a laptop screen.

Today in a meeting I joked that I wanted to display bad apple on the IP phone that my employer gave to me.

That's a nice evening project, so I'll take you on the journey of trying to get this working. [Thread]
