    You can fool face recognition also with special make-ups and hair styles. Or use wigs and special make-up. Or use a niqab or a burka to hide your face completely.

    Traffic Lights.... what a great *improvement* for Dumaguete, lol. Now I'm all for traffic lights in some areas after some traffic issues are changed or else the lights will just be completely laughable but the thing is those issues will never actually be fixed. For instance one problem is that downtown there are a lot of streets just 100m or whatever from each other and a light at each would be horrendous but not putting a light when at the ends there is a light would also be horrendous. Further allowing the street walker traffic and parking on the street traffic to continue as it has been is another issue that would make traffic lights a problem. Pedestrian traffic needs to be routed to more proper crossing spots and done in a more organized way which is NOT staggering people a few people apart so a 10 second walk takes 30 seconds because they walk slow (on phones) and stagger themselves. At the market there should be a heightened crosswalk and the market area but then need fencing to stop people from just crossing on the street and a fencing system that allows motorcycle parking to some extent as well. Another would be banning pedicabs from picking up and dropping off of the main downtown through streets requiring a side street drop off or pickup which may mean whomever has to walk 50 meters.

    In the end we just see Dumaguete is horribly designed to ever be a modern city nor will the people or politicians enact real changes to make Dumaguete a modern city.

    Some stop signs or yield signs at the junctions, when a driver comes out of a minor road and goes straight across the main road without even looking.
    At least it should cover the insurance issues If the driver has insurance.:rolleyes:

    Is that just an excuse for you to dress up like a woman? It's 2018, you don't need excuses. Let your inner femininity fly. Just do us all a favor and shave your legs as well.

    But if you think you'll be able to fool the recognition into thinking you are actually a woman, then you are mistaken. There's a built-in algo for "ugly woman" detection. Once you hit a certain level in the reading, then you get flagged as a ladyboy and an alert gets sent out to all nearby drunk foreigners who might not be able to see straight.

    LOL. I did not even thinked about this about to completely dress like the opposite gender just to fool the face recognition. Not sure if it is possible to fool the face recognition that way well enough. I guess you need at least heavy usage of make-up in your face to get a chance to fool it.

    Personal experience? :wink:

    I've also been here 9 years and some longer and have never seen a traffic light here. When I first came here traffic wasn't so bad at all and just downtown during a 1 hour rush to/from work or at the market area because of people constantly crossing the streets.
