Police drone tracks Walmart theft suspect in real time
A California police department's drone program helped officers track down and arrest a suspected repeat shoplifter who attempted to flee on a stolen bicycle Tuesday morning and might otherwise have gotten away, officials said.
The incident happed at a Walmart in Clovis, California, where police were called just after 8 a.m. for a known shoplifting suspect. The department's "Drone First Responder" (DFR) program proved crucial in the arrest, officials said.
"The suspect at Walmart stole a bicycle from inside the store, which the staff thought he would, and he took off on that bike," Clovis Police Public Information Officer Ty Wood told ABC News Fresno station.
The suspect, identified by police as 19-year-old Sean Baker, was tracked by the drone as he crossed a nearby street. He now faces charges including shoplifting, possession of burglary tools and obstructing an officer, according to police.
The police spokesperson told ABC News that the department's DFR program currently operates two drones, which can cover more than 90% of community. The department has already ordered a third drone for next year, the spokesperson said.
"We realize that drones are not going to be taking the place of a law enforcement helicopter, but with a city our size, we can't afford a helicopter. These drone first responders are definitely a game changer," the spokesperson told ABC News.
The drones, which typically fly at 200 feet, are equipped with advanced camera systems.
"These cameras are fantastic," Wood told ABC30. "We have the ability to see license plates and get physical descriptions of suspects."
A key advantage of the program is the drones' ability to arrive at scenes before officers. The spokesperson said responding officers can view live drone footage from their patrol car computers while en route to calls.
The suspect "went behind other retail businesses and he would have been lost if it weren't for the drone," Wood told ABC30.
The department, which serves a community of over 129,000 residents, launched its drone program in 2020, according to the spokesperson. The initiative has since become an important part of the department's Real Time Information Center (RTIC), which combines various surveillance systems used for public safety.

This is why I think LLMs have made the world worse even if I don't buy the fear-mongering. Regardless of the costs to train LLMs, the costs of having those tools available are worse than the benefits. The amount of extra work bug bounty programs have had to do thanks to AI is crazy.
Come to think of it, there are black markets for selling computer security vulnerabilities between nation-states. Maybe our governments can start flooding those with AI generated security exploits. That'd be funny.
This was a really great read. The numbers don’t lie: 7 companies each independently invested 100 bn in AI and have seen little revenue in return (relatively speaking). When overlaying that on top of its impact on the us stock market as a whole, once the veil has been lifted that this is not leading to super intelligence, a bubble will burst and the entire economy will feel it.
That doesn't mean "nothing to see here, move on." It means that AI isn't the bow-wave of "impending superintelligence." Nor is it going to deliver "humanlike intelligence."It's a grab-bag of useful (sometimes very useful) tools that can sometimes make workers' lives better, when workers get to decide how and when they're used.
This is the part that is overlooked when discussing anti-ai hype: these tools are very useful, but they appear only useful to the skilled laborer wielding them, instead of the investor claim that they will be replaced.

I have Reduced my car/bike usage. I'm still a hobby driver/motorcyclist but I do it less nowadays.
All my vehicles are bought second hand and will be Reused until I can't fix them anymore. They're both mid 00's Hondas (car and bike) so that's likely going to be until I run out of parts on the market.
Then they will be Recycled for scrap metal. At that point I'll think about Reusing some other second hand car. If electric makes sense it'll be that.
I'm with you entirely except for comfort. I think the only comfort advantage is that trains can have comparable leg room and you can standup.
I have never been on any type of mass transit where the seats were as comfortable as even a crappy car.
That's ignoring system dependent stuff like cleanliness or the discomforts of being close to strangers.
You can certainly clean more, put in better seats, and suck it up when it comes to strangers, but as it is right now, I struggle to see how you could say it's more comfortable based purely on the amenities.
I struggle to see how you could say it’s more comfortable
easy, i don't have to focus on the street for 50 minutes. that's a big win for me.
Ah, I wouldn't have called that comfort, more boredom. I still don't agree on the comfort thing, but at least I can see where you're coming from.
I'm tall and overweight. Even when I wasn't overweight the seats have never been wide enough and I almost always have my knees pressed into the back of the seat in front of me. With the seat being too short as well, I usually end up with a fair bit of pain unless I can stand or get a seat without someone close in front of me.
It's not really boredom, you have that time left to sleep, draw, read, or enjoy the scenery. All the more worth it for public transit.
It also takes cars off the road, meaning fewer and shorter traffic jams. Win in my book.
The seating is more of an issue with cars, I've felt. It's always cramped and big cars are uncomfortable and unsafe. Hassle to park as well, and they end up costing you way more than it's worth.
Yeah, for me the real status symbol is a bicycle and healthy legs. Or a good public transit card.
I mean, I used to be exclusively a bus rider or pedestrian, so I'm not unfamiliar with them. Sleeping is a bad choice because you can miss your stop, and at least in my experience the scenery is no different than you would get from the windshield.
Did like reading though, since that was relaxing. If I'm being fair though, taking a car for the trip I used to bus is fast enough that I wouldn't find a book worth it.
Does the seat softness not bother you? For me, seat softness and leg room are the two biggest drives for feeling uncomfortable and even the smallest car has more.
To be clear, I'm not saying public transit is bad. Far from it. If it were remotely viable for any of the trips I need to take it would be my go to. I just think that they could put more padding on the seats, make them a little larger, and give a touch more leg room.
You don't miss your stop with an alarm.
The scenery is certainly different. You don't always see roads, you look at the side.
The seats are pretty comfy in train and bus, enough leg space too. I do agree with you that more padding and extra leg space would be always welcome, though.
We'll have to agree to disagree on the seats. It's just not comfortable from my view. A cheap office chair would be an upgrade. We almost certainly live in different areas with different buses, so it's not really something we can compare specifically.
Completely different scenery is pushing it a bit. I can pretty much see whatever I could see out of the bus window through the windshield, and for the most part it's not what you would call "scenic". I don't live in the country nor do I live in a big enough city for interesting architecture, so it's just a long suburban and urban sprawl of slightly run down houses and low grade commercial along the bus routes. We're not talking some run down dystopia, but there just isn't much interesting to see, at least more than once.
I don't think an alarm would help me not miss my stop. The buses here are reliable, but not regular enough to set an alarm for arrival times. I was always worried they'd show up early and I'd miss it, and that sucked when the weather was bad.
... Have you ever used public transportation in any major city? It is about the only instance in modern age where you are in a vehicle that may be going 50 kph and you are standing. If you are going to be making claims, I would drop that "10x as comfortable" bit.
Comfortable is probably the biggest reason most people don't use public transportation. With their own cars, they don't need to wait, they don't need to worry about whether they are going to be packed like sardines because of the work rush, or forced to even wait for another pass because it got full before they were able to get on, or have to worry about getting cramps from not being able to sit, or having the transit take significantly more because it's not direct, or pickpockets..
About the only comfortable thing about public transport is if you can get on it during off-peak hours when seats are available, in a route that doesn't require a lot transfers, that isn't much longer due to the stops and side-routing, and that doesn't have a high wait time. All the stars have to align.
In comparison, bikes are probably the better option overall, and it would be epic if public transport started incorporating e-bike/scooter transit along with it. Unfortunately it seems to be quite the opposite where I live due to concerns about Lithium battery fires, but hopefully someone somewhere realizes that that is just a standardization issue.
public transport is just 10x as comfortable as any car could be
Yes, nothing beats walking to a bus stop and waiting there in the cold, rain or burning sun, hoping the bus shows up in time or at all. Then stressing, because it being 15 minutes late probably means your connecting train will be gone. Oh yes, there it goes. Half an hour wait with no place to sit. And then repeat this two more times for more connecting trains and buses.
And I haven't even talked about not being able to sit during train rides, or having to sit on back wrecking seats. Unfortunately I have back issues and after having enjoyed the 'comfort' of our public transport I often end up just not being able to stand or sit anymore at the end of the day because my back hurts so bad.
That is my average commute, and as a bonus there ultimately isn't a difference in price here between taking the car or public transport. To top it off my average travel time is 60 minutes by car, 1.5 - 2 hours by public transport, often depending whether or not the first bus shows up in time.
It would be able to overlook a lot of this if it was feasible to do some work in the train, but with all the fragmentation on my route I never really get anything done.
I really would like to use public transport, as it is more sustainable than my gas guzzler, but each time I try it the experience just sucks so bad.
Agree, it's so much nicer.
No stress about searching parking spots, no cursing people driving too fast or slow... and reliable, fast, affordable and comfortable.
Political will is not even the problem; corruption, ie. corporatism and oligarchs are. They stand in the way of a truly public transit friendly society. None of the oligarchs are part of 'us'.
And even if we consider cars,good driving experiences necessitate public transit, bicycle lanes, and walkability!

I think I'm misunderstanding something about snapshots on fedora
Just installed fedora to replace windows 10. I've used mint and ubuntu as a general purpose os in the past but it's been a few years and I was never a power user, just learned what I needed as I went.
I remember it being important to use timeshift to safeguard against breaking something with updates, but it seems like timeshift doesn't work on fedora. Rather, you can get it to work on fedora but it's not supported. The thing that is confusing me is, searching for a way to do snapshots on fedora, I haven't really found what I expected? There's nothing I can see in software or flathub, timeshift or the alternatives mentioned on forums. I'm think I'm going to proceed with figuring out snapper using btrfs assistant as a gui...
But, given that I remember timeshift being basically recommended all the time to everyone when I used to use linux, I can't find anyone all that interested in using snapshots with fedora. Is it not necessary with fedora? Does fedora somehow handle that already? I can make do with the information I can find, but I'm wondering why there is so little information about it at all. I can't really find anything that suggests it's important to make snapshots. Or maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places? Can someone help me understand this better?

Cosa si cuce nel fediverso?
Ciao a tutti 😀
Condividere il progetto su cui si sta lavorando può essere un buon modo per infondere coraggio a chi voglia cimentarsi nell’arte del cucito.
È poco che cucio, ma la passione si è trasformata in lavoro in poco tempo pur non cancellando come fosse il mio mondo in bianco e nero, senza ago e filo nella macchina o nelle mani, il mondo prima di adesso.
‘Cucire’ era mia nonna che aggiungeva i polsini alle giacche ormai troppo corte.
‘Cucire’ era un’amica speciale che per regalo di nozze mi scriveva una lettera chiusa da una busta cucita a mano con la scritta ‘Auguri!’, ricamata sul cartoncino.
‘Cucire’ era la sarta della merceria del paese che trasformava i pantaloni lisi dei miei figli in panta-toppe.
‘Cucire’ era tante cose, ma non ero io.
Oggi condivido invece i progetti su cui sto lavorando: delle camice di seta con taglio a kimono. Ancora mi chiedo come io mi sia ritrovata qui. Ma mi sento a casa. Una casa cucita su misura.
E voi, in che progetto state mettendo le mani? Rattoppate? Ricamate? Cucite scarpe scucite? Cucite per sopravvivere?
Aspetto di leggervi

impressioni con le unghie smolecolate in parti incontabili (non mi so tagliare le unghie e faccio i casinetti)
Anche oggi è sabato, e quindi nuovamente non c’è nulla di interessante da dire qui. (Ma seriamente eh, non so perché i miei sabati sono così maledetti, solo in questo giorno sono così inispirata…) Per fortuna, di argomenti noiosi ne ho sempre qualcuno da parte, quindi per stavolta non soccomberò… magra consolazione. Beh, tra tante cose inutili mi stavo in realtà chiedendo come mai quando mi taglio le unghie devo fare sempre un grosso casino; e ok, forse questa sotto sotto è un po’ divertente. 💥In genere non ci penso, perché faccio direttamente tutto per terra; non nel senso che bacio il pavimento mentre mi taglio le unghie, ma semplicemente faccio cadere tutto per terra, perché è più comodo, perché non ho pezzi da raccogliere per buttare poi, semplicemente passo l’aspirapolvere e tanti saluti… che in effetti è un tipo di casino, ma non quello intrinseco che voglio dire in questo momento. Il vero casino, piuttosto, l’ho visto l’altra sera, perché essendo tardi non potevo aspirare ancora più tardi, e allora ho dovuto fare sulla scrivania, e… 🤪
Caspita, e questo è un casino. Perché fare il tagliamento in modo più o meno preciso con non più di un paio di colpi mi risulta sempre praticamente impossibile, e quindi a furia di fare si ottengono anche queste piccole briciole di unghia, a parte i pezzi grossi. E non sono per niente poche. Però mi chiedo se sia un problema mio, e in quel caso quindi non sarebbe altro che un problema di skill (ormai li colleziono quelli, non c’è un cazzo da fare!), o se la cosa è comune o quantomeno aspettata… anche perché non sono l’unica persona ad avere solo 2 mani in totale di cui solo 1 dominante, quindi potrei aspettarmi di non essere la sola ad avere difficoltà con il tagliare le unghie soprattutto (…ma non unicamente) sull’opposta. 😑Il colmo, però, a questo punto, è che, nonostante tutta questa fatica, comunque le unghie vengono indecenti alla fine, se non uso anche la limetta… E anche a questo ci ho pensato solo stavolta, perché stavolta avevo dimenticato di farlo, essendo che la limetta la tengo nel cassetto, e quindi avrei dovuto alzarmi dalla scrivania per prenderla subito dopo aver finito con le forbici, ma sul momento mi seccavo, e più tardi mi sono dimenticata; quindi, quando il giorno dopo mi sono risvegliata, ho realizzato per bene. 😵
Con la foto, anche se pochino, si vede… e un’unghia l’ho fatta lievemente concava al centro (non so neanche io come!), e un’altra unghia l’ho fatta poco più corta sulla destra rispetto alla sinistra, e così via, e che fastidio!!! Menomale che la limetta aggiusta… però… mentre anche questo non è chiaro se sia un problema mio o no, il dimenticare passaggi e finire a fare le cose a pezzi metà un giorno e metà un altro è certamente indicazione di skill mancanti. (Morirò con cotanto fregio, si vede.) 💖

Palestinian statehood: Recognition amidst erasure? (25min Vid)
After almost 2 years of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Western powers have issued synchronised declarations recognising Palestinian statehood – a diplomatic move seemingly born out of the immense public pressure they face. What’s missing from the story is the concrete measures those governments could take to stop the slaughter in Gaza, as well as their complicity by continuing to supply weapons to Israel.

How do you handle emulator controls when using a controller?
One thing I’ve run into as I’ve been playing some of my retro games is that, when using a controller with an Nvidia Shield + Moonlight or even with just a Steam Deck, the emulators often have a massive amount of controls that I can’t really interact with. All of the controls are hotkey based, for save states, loading states, etc.
Most of the games I’m wanting to play are controller based, but it feels like the tools to enjoy them are all keyboard based. Do you just use the built in save functionalities? How does it all work?

Thailand: Legal Committee Pushes for Immediate Halt to China’s Rare Earth Mining in Myanmar over cross-border pollution
Cross-posted from lemmy.sdf.org/post/43049861
Archived[...]
[Anuk Pitukthanin, Director of the Mekong Studies Centre] said the rare earth mining issue must be managed beyond local communities and treated as a regional concern.
Kanwee Suebsaeng, list MP for the Fair Party and deputy chair of the House committee [in Tahiland] said the House considered the Clean Air Bill yesterday, 25 September. One section deals with transboundary pollution. He asked the drafters how Thailand could bring civil action against foreign operators whose activities in neighbouring countries harm Thailand.
[...]
Zung Ting from the Kachin environmental network reported that conditions in Myanmar’s Kachin State have worsened over the past decade, and even more since the 2021 coup.
Kachin holds vast resources amid high global demand for rare earths to feed clean energy supply chains and stockpiles in the United States, the European Union and Japan. Mining sites are located in Kachin, with China playing a major role in extracting ore and adding value.
He said China focuses on processing to add value at home, while avoiding mining on its own soil due to severe environmental harm. Chinese policy shifted to limit domestic rare earth mining by Chinese firms, pushing operations into several areas of Myanmar. Activity rose sharply after 2015, then increased again after the 2021 coup.
[...]
The absence of control is alarming. Rare earth mining sites in Kachin have increased by more than 60 percent, with over 5,000 chemical ponds across about 400 mines. Similar mines and ponds have spread to Shan State. The impact falls heavily on local communities and indigenous peoples, with severe flooding every year. More countries are now moving into Myanmar to seek rare earth ores.
[...]
Pollution from these rare earth mines is now affecting Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai and reaches the Mekong. He urged all parties to learn from the disaster in Kachin and prevent further cross-border pollution.
[...]
Assoc Prof Dr Narumon Thabchumpon of the Faculty of Political Science, Chulalongkorn University, said political debates often get stuck on territorial limits. She proposed the no-harm principle. States must not cause serious harm to other states, and sovereignty comes with responsibility.
She urged ASEAN to table cross-border pollution from rare earth mining at the summit in November under the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution. She also called for talks on environmental and health security under RBC frameworks. Local authorities should be strengthened, with early warning systems and buffer zones put in place.

Was nach Zukunftsvision klingt, ist erschreckend nah an den realen Reinheits- und Schönheitsdiktaten, die täglich durch Werbung und Social Media zirkulieren. (ZDF)

I should have known from the beginning that we(sterners) never intended to force Israel into accepting a two-states implementation.
I naively hoped that we wanted to enforce international law along the 1967 borders for a time, but we proved instead that we never intended to in the first place, and probably never will since Israel is an ally.
Yet our people still consider that we did something. The only thing our empty words and lack of plan aimed to do was to appease the global outrage, it worked.
Then, the last available alternative is wars, from the beginning it was always war, since neither the west nor Israel intend to let palestinians have a state. Or submit, or wait a more favorable time.
Let's fantasize that Israel ever wanted a two-states solution, then it could ask for Palestine's demilitarization, collaboration to chase down israelis enemies, a sincere acceptation from the current antizionist states(, including with a clear pro-zionist propaganda in these states), and could take written engagements that it will eternally support the palestinian demands towards euro-americans for a.n just/acceptable territory in exchange for Israel.
Claiming that peace with palestinians is impossible is a lie, they simply don't want to share the sacred lands. Netanyahu is the same as he was when he opposed the Oslo accords, his concerns for security are a pretext for grabbing more lands, and his bad-faith arguments and behavior are proofs of that.
I can only blindly hope that wars aren't the last alternative.
Again, i feel so stupid to have ever believed that we(sterners) intended to force Israel into accepting a two-states implementation, tsk.

Are you tired of missing a demonstration because the algorithm only shows you rubbish? Are you worried that the organisations you follow need to censor what they write so that their accounts don't get shut down? Or maybe you refuse to use the big platforms, but find it difficult to know what's going on in town?
Sociala medier underifrån (social media from below) is a Gothenburg-based campaign by a few left-wing and queer organisations that want to help fill alternatives to the networks of the evil tech giants with life. The participating organisations will use the alternatives Mastodon and Mobilizon (which this website is based on), which are non-commercial social networks by and for us. In this workshop, we will talk about why we need these alternatives and show you how to use them in practice! No prior knowledge is required, we will learn step by step together! Feel free to bring a mobile phone or laptop if you can – then you can create an account right away.
We will take plenty of breaks and there will be food and snacks during the workshop. Pre-registration is not required, but it helps us estimate how much fika we need to prepare.
Please feel free to comment here or contact us at info@underifran.se if you have any questions!

Är du trött på att missa demon för algoritmen bara visar dig skit? Är du orolig över att organisationerna du följer behöver censurerar det de skriver för att deras konton inte ska bli avstängt? Eller vägrar du kanske de stora plattformar, men tycker det är svårt att veta vad som händer i stan?
Sociala medier underifrån är en Göteborgs-baserat kampanj av några vänster och queerorganisationer som vill hjälpa till att fylla alternativ till de onda techjätternas nätverk med liv. Organisationerna som deltar i kampanjen kommer använda alternativen mastodon och mobilizon (vilket denna webbsida baserar på), som är icke-kommersiella sociala nätverk av och för oss. I denna workshop pratar vi om varför vi behöver dessa alternativ och kommer praktiskt visa hur du kan använda dem! Ingen förkunskap krävs, vi tar allt tillsammans steg för steg! Ta gärna med en mobil eller laptop om du har möjlighet - så kan du direkt skaffa ett konto.
Vi kommer ta gott om pauser och det kommer finnas mat- och kakfika under workshoppen. Föranmälan krävs inte, men hjälper oss att uppskatta hur mycket fika vi behöver fixa. Denna workshop kommer vara hållas på engelska om någon av deltagarna önskar det, men vi hjälpas åt om språket ställer till.

Humanoid robots are only hyped because GenAI is hyped and GenAI is hyped because Altman and his other conmen are scamming the World out of resources on the promise of AGI because "Scale Is All You Need", a very convenient trope for VCs as they have no other idea beside dominating a market by scaling.
So... if the GenAI bubble does pop (and the HBR article on workslop lets me hope that it has started) then I don't see how humanoid robot would not. I also imagine manufacturers are less prone to hype because they have been robots already for decades. Even some services like hospitals do have robots for cleaning, delivery, etc. Sure they don't look humanoid but it's still a baseline to compare with in terms of performance and price.
Edit: if you want to explore the OSHW FLOSS side of this check github.com/huggingface/lerobot but my own understanding is that there is no radical progress. Sure we might be inching away at "solving" robotics but nothing changed except few components getting a bit cheaper thanks to smartphone then in turn drone or obviously GPUs.
Edit2: if you don't feel like reading the article just watch the 2 videos by Roland Johansson on normal hand vs hand without touch, it's fascinating.

What to Look for Before Buying a Small Business
Some business owners sell their business. The buyer who is planning to buy it must check some necessary details and can purchase it.
Starting your own business from scratch is different than buying an already running business and altering it. Buying a business involves plenty of processes, and everything should be done carefully. Before buying a small business, certain factors must be considered. All those factors are listed in this blog along with some special requirements. Continue to read and explore more.
Key Factors Behind Selling a Business
The reasons behind a business owner selling a business are numerous. Some of the factors include,
- The business owner might plan to retire.
- The funds from selling this business could help kick-start another idea.
- When the business sales go in a decreasing pattern.
- Sometimes, the business owner may shift to another location.
- If any disagreements occur with the business partners, the business owner may sell the business.
It is not certain that the business owners will sell their business in good condition. There will be some flaws and problems. Therefore, if you plan to purchase the business, consider the following factors, which are listed below.
1. No Undisclosed Issues: If the business has any undisclosed issues, then they must be resolved properly. When a buyer shows interest in buying the business, the first factor to be checked is the issues. If they buy the business with issues, then it may create a loss for them.
2. Business with Solid Brand Recognition: Some buyers check whether the business has a solid brand recognition in the market. Purchasing a well-recognized business minimizes future workload and marketing efforts.
3. Business is a Profitable One: The business that is going to be purchased by the buyers must not incur a loss. It must be a profitable one. Buying a business that is on a losing path is not a good decision because bringing it to a profitable path from loss is a strenuous process and takes a long time.
4. Build a Transferable Business: In some types of business, a large client base will be there for the business owner. If the business owner changes, then the clients will regret that business. So, while choosing a business to buy, check whether it is transferable or not.
5. Business Condition: Another factor to be considered before buying is whether the products used in the business are in good condition, whether the inventories can be used again, are the staff working there are skilled, etc. Also, the financial reports and sales patterns of the business must be identified. These are the factors that you must check in a business if you’re going to buy it.
The step-by-step process followed while purchasing the business is as follows.
- Initially, the buyer must do self-analysis. Whether they have the interest to run that business, the financial availability to make investments, etc.
- The next step is analyzing the business processes and their scope in the business market. It helps in understanding the sales performance, challenges in it, etc.
- Further, have a conversation with experts and accountants about the purchasing process and make the right decision.
- After taking effective decisions, approach the seller and check the condition of the business. Its work process, employee status, inventory condition, cash flow statements, etc., are the factors that must be checked.
- If a decision is taken to buy the business, negotiate with the seller and check for any legal issues. If everything is okay, then the business can be purchased.
Purchasing a business and developing it is a good choice, but its success depends on the already existing structure of the business. So, if you’re opting for purchasing a business, research clearly and choose wisely.

How to Play and Enjoy Slither io !
If you’ve ever found yourself with a few minutes to spare and a craving for something fun, fast, and slightly chaotic, you might want to check out Slither io. It’s a browser-based multiplayer game that combines the nostalgia of the classic Snake game with real-time online competition. Whether you’re just curious or hoping to grow the biggest snake on the board, this article will walk you through what the game is, how it works, and a few helpful tips to make your experience smoother.
Gameplay Overview
At its core, Slither io is simple: you control a snake, and your goal is to eat glowing pellets (orbs) to grow as long as possible while avoiding other players. All the snakes are controlled by other people playing at the same time, which means you’re not just trying to beat the game—you’re trying to outlast real players.
Controls
You can play on a computer or mobile device. On a computer, you use the mouse to steer your snake and the left-click to boost. On a touchscreen device, just drag your finger to control direction and double-tap to speed up. Boosting makes your snake move faster, but it costs some of your snake’s length.
The Objective
There is no “end” to the game. You keep going until your snake crashes into another player or the wall, at which point your snake explodes into glowing orbs, and it’s game over. Other players can then eat the orbs you leave behind. The goal is to grow as large as you can, earn a high score, and maybe even make it to the leaderboard.
How to Get Started
1. Visit the Website
To play, go to Slither io. No download or account is needed. Just choose a nickname, customize your snake’s appearance if you want, and click “Play.”
2. Customize Your Snake
You can choose different skins, colors, and designs. It’s a fun way to make your snake stand out in the crowd. Some players even use their national flags or team colors.
3. Start Small, Think Big
When your snake first spawns, it’s tiny. This can be frustrating at first, but the early game is about being cautious and collecting smaller orbs. It’s okay to hang around the edges of the map and avoid larger snakes until you’ve grown a bit.
Tips for Playing Better
While Slither io is easy to pick up, getting good at it takes a bit of practice and patience. Here are some beginner-friendly tips:
1. Play defensively at first
Don’t chase after other players too aggressively when you're small. Focus on collecting scattered orbs and staying away from danger zones, especially near the center of the map where action is constant.
2. Use boost wisely
Boosting is useful for escaping tricky situations or stealing orbs after a big snake dies, but overusing it will shorten your snake. Use it strategically.
3. Circle smaller snakes
Once you're long enough, you can trap smaller snakes by curling around them. Just be careful not to trap yourself in the process. It’s one of the most satisfying tactics in the game.
4. Follow the giants
Big snakes often cause chaos. When they die, they leave behind a feast of orbs. If you hang around safely near them, you might be able to swoop in and grab some of the leftovers.
5. Watch out for sudden movements
Other players can boost into your path and take you out instantly. Stay alert, especially when you're near a crowd.
6. Use the minimap
There's a small radar/map in the corner that shows your position. The center is usually the busiest area, while the edges are quieter and safer for beginners.
Why People Keep Coming Back
Part of the charm of Slither io is how fast and unpredictable each round can be. A game can last 10 seconds or 30 minutes—it all depends on how careful (or lucky) you are. And because you’re playing with real people, every session feels fresh.
There’s also something oddly relaxing about guiding your snake through glowing trails of orbs, even if you’re not aiming for a top score. It’s a nice balance of competition and casual fun.
Plus, the fact that you can jump in and out without logging in or saving progress makes it perfect for short breaks, study pauses, or moments when you just need to switch off and do something light.
Final Thoughts
Slither io isn’t about fancy graphics or deep storytelling. It’s about simple, instant fun that anyone can enjoy. Whether you're looking to kill a few minutes or test your reflexes against strangers across the world, it’s a game worth trying.
Just remember: everyone starts small, and part of the fun is figuring out your own play style. Some players go slow and steady, others dive straight into the action. There’s no single right way to play.
So, next time you find yourself bored or just in need of a mental break, head over to Slither io and give it a shot. Who knows? Maybe you’ll make it onto the leaderboard—or at least have a good laugh trying.
Have you played Slither io? Got any tricks or funny moments to share? Drop them in the comments—this game is even better when you learn from other players!

I just discovered this app. I know there are folks out there who think location tracking is the opposite of privacy but it's a nice security tool to keep track of your loved ones. I found this one thats fully end to end encrypted. I am currently in the works to migrate my family of 10 over. (This includes my grandparents who are less than tech savvy)
Just thought I would share in the event there was a father like me looking for a similar tool that doesn't sell your location data or breach your data.

As in, this meritocracy structure allows anyone to become King Bezos through "hard work"(*).
Since anyone could become king meritocatically, therefore they all benefit from the equal and just potential, to receive "each according to their needs and from each according to their ability" anyone who opposes this system in fact opposes their own interests and those of other, therefore justifying the deployment of unlimited violence to neutralize the threat, for everyone's interests including the perpetrator.

in reply to itztalal • • •can you pls explain what you mean in more depth?
your original post is sufficiently vague that tbh i don't blame people for assuming you were just bootlicking? [which probably says more about the state of the world than you as an individual, but honestly it's not clear what you're trying to say?]
we all know a random citizen/local business presenting an identical calibre of evidence of repeated crimes would be extremely unlikely to routinely receive this degree of resource allocation.
so if it's an idealised aspirational universal "order" you're talking about then obviously noone's buying it - and i don't think you are either. so what do you mean?
itztalal
in reply to ganymede • • •Personally, I don't care what the morons on these forums end up assuming. They're incorrect more often than they're right, and each mistake makes me value their input even less.
Law enforcement exists to maintain order. I made no arguments on whether or not that should be the case, but the tribalist morons took my "wavering loyalty" as treachery and the dogpile ensued with everyone trying to fit in with each other.
I'm glad I can recognize these people for who they are, since nobody else will.

mnemonicmonkeys
in reply to interdimensionalmeme • • •My point is that you're arguing that Russia (which is currently ruled by a genocidal, authoritarian regime and is trying to force all of its citizens onto state-controlled social media to monitor everyone) would be a good ally in the fight to keep E2EE alive.
The amount of cognitive dissonance in your comments is disturbing
interdimensionalmeme
in reply to mnemonicmonkeys • • •The only counter we currently have to state power is leveraging other states, getting them to fight one another until they're so damage that they let go of their fascistic plans to enslave and tag the entire population. Russia isn't going to politely send delegate to advocate against total state surveillance, they're doing it, every state is turning fasch and doing it. They are to embolden, to empowered and they don't respect of fear the population.
The only way to counter this trend is by distracting them with an existential crisis. They need "something" to save us from, when we are too safe and they are too powerful, they start treating us, as the enemy, as their pets, as their farm animal, cattle, we can't stop them doing that but we can send them to clash against enemy states to dissipate their violent, dominating, malignant energy
