How do you not use Google?
Bing is sh*t.

May be sh*t, but I would rather choke on my own vomit than use Google/Facebook.

I use Google for most stuff. Evil empire - perhaps, but their sh*t works.
I do not do facebook, or snapchat, or twitter, or anything social media, minus LinkedIn.

My FireFox is set to wipe all cookies when I close the browser. No problems w/CP setup. I would imagine they'd be kept on CP's side - or so it seems.
As for Ads, I added Addblock+ to FireFox and they go away. Actually, you need to enable them on CP if you wish to do certain things, like having rollover of a users name show their image, etc.
You may also get so airplay out of BetterPrivacy and Ghostery.

...like keep CP profitable so that they can keep providing the service also.

Is a fumigator a large, angry reptile?
Very early today, as I have to go out and don;t know when I'll be back. Something to do with "getting a life" apparently.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Something stinks about this. Sounds like just another croc.

This is what I want...
- A human walks up to a place which requires previous approval to get in the building.
- The human claims to be Samuel SpecificGuy
- The human places his two hands on two pieces of glass
- Two scanners take a look at them
- Software compares these two scans with previous scans of his hands which are on file
- The software indicates the level of confidence that this really is Samuel SpecificGuy
This can't be a brand new idea. I mean, really; checking hand size to help guess if the guy is an impostor ? I've seen the same at least once, without a human; just software granting access to places with pretty important security restrictions.
I'm NOT talking about fingerprints !!! Just hand size.
I asked google and bing for something about hand scanners and I got a bunch of hits about bar code readers.
Could somebody provide me with a vocabulary lesson as to what I should ask, e.g., phrases that google or bing might understand ?

Try palm scanner?
Probably get a lot of results about palmprint scanning though.
|
|
|
|
|
How about a combined face palm scanner?
|

After a short search I've found something that can help you, I guess you'll be able to get the source code somehow:

Good luck!

I've designed and created something similar. Rather than putting the palm on glass panels I give authenticated users a device that is placed in the palm instead and the device grants the user the required access. I call it a "key".

With the first sentence you raised my hopes for the one scanner I always was waiting for. Imagine lowering your pants and sitting on the scanner until it has verified your identity, the whole time surrounded by security guards.
For some reason this always must be a lengthy and complicated procedure with bonus points for being embarrassing or involving being groped all over by strangers.

Facial recognition and gait analysis are sufficiently advanced that you should be able to verify Samuel Specificguy before he gets to the door using already installed security cameras.
