Very nice, I love the overall effect. Once you have motion sensing are you planning on local reaction or more of a persistence approach? Like a motion sensor and then a timer for turning off or once someone enters the room keeping them on until they leave the room?
To be clear, this is a Benn Garrison piece. He is a terrible communicator and has a lack of clarity in his cartoons. He is also at least half mad. His wall of deep state actors puts CNN on the exact same level as Obama, George Soros, and all the rest. Note the lack of the actual players of conspiracy, being the ultra rich, and those in the network of Epstein. Honestly, he is not a good cartoonist, his cartoons lack political awareness, and he is just spitting out right wing fascist cartoons like those used in WW2. 5 separate coded references to “the Jews” as a group in control of things, a repeated use of Obama, I mean honestly, this is junk and bunkum.
That is essentially what gluetun does. It is a little simpler to set up given that it is all preinstalled and you just select your provider and details and it is done. And again, you just specify the network for other containers to use the gluetun service and it is done. Very simple, easy for using many services through one VPN connection, and available on things like CasaOS with simple setup.
I agree that this has gone on too long, like insanely way way way too long. This has been a genocide for decades but the international community has been very slow and weak in their reactions to anything from Israel and have allowed truly reprehensible things to go unpunished.
As for the any day now thing, yeah, it is starting to have an impact. Pressure is building fairly rapidly compared to the past decades and now Israel is being ostracised in many spaces. People are refusing to participate if Israel is welcomed, just like what happened to SA. Israeli products are not being purchased, just like with SA. Recognition of this as a genocide has been increasing, just like the recognition or apartheid in SA. Statehood for Palestine is being recognised by a bunch more countries, including allies of the USA which has previously managed to protect Israel from this, and this is again similar to the kinds if political change around SA at the end of apartheid.
Is this the same as SA? No. Are there similarities? Yes, absolutely. I’m not saying this is all good and any day now it will all flip. I am saying the likelihood of change within 6 months has never been as high as now.
Glassing is not a solution. You drop a bomb and make sand into glass but you haven’t actually changed the regime. You haven’t changed who does and does not have power. You haven’t changed who is considered human or less than. You haven’t changed what the public of that country thinks. You haven’t changed much of anything.
Boycotting is effective. It worked on South Africa. It worked in many other cases. It needs critical mass. It needs a sufficient portion of the relevant population to participate. Anyone who could buy an Israeli product and does not because of what they are doing in Gaza is making change. Anyone who refuses to participate in international events because Israel is there is making change. Anyone who refuses to perform in Israel is making change.
Saying “glass them” feels good, it feels cathartic and just and right. It is not right. It doesn’t work. It is morally faulty. Glassing Israel or part thereof would be the beginning of a much larger war, killing many more people. It would escalate existing conflict into something somehow even larger. It is understandable you would want to say it, but it does not actually make the world better. Maybe there is nothing you personally can do to make the world better in this case, and if so that sucks. But you don’t have to make the world worse because you can’t make it better.
What do you do with a faulty RAID drive? Early in the morning!
To clarify, the charges brought in the Florida district could have been brought in another venue, but the crime was the documents being withheld in Florida, so that is the correct venue. It could have gotten way through the process and been appealed due to incorrect venue and we would have been back at the start.
That said, I think getting Cannon removed would have been more likely to bear fruit. She had clear evidence of bias and would have been way past the threshold of appearance of impropriety, so getting her removed would have been a fairly likely path to success. Unfortunately the supreme court was so flooded by idealogues that it would have been appealed and they would have either held it up or overturned it and gotten her back on, or just dismissed the case in some other way.
What was needed was a much more aggressive approach from both Biden and Garland. Biden to change the number of supreme court justices and to direct his justice department to deeply investigate all of the justices on the court. Garland to open said investigations, push for intelligence agency support, and lots of speaking indictments to get information in front of voters.
Because insecure manlets like him want things in simple little boxes so he can attack people who are outside the boxes so he can feel big and special. Honestly it is just fascism, the hard lines of gender roles and hierarchy, but this really is an uncreative repeat of early 20th century ideology. Zero stars, no creativity, would not recommend.
Not to mention the significant Russian ties for the Green Party and the clear spoiler effect.
I don’t know about videos but having a look at the OSI model is a good way to start. It covers the abstract framework for packetizing data including things like the distinction between hardware and software, envelope, encryption, application layer stuff, the whole shebang. The cool thing is by going hardware, network, application you can see where responsibility are and it helps you understand where things can go wrong.
If you are interested there are plenty of CCNA style courses available on the internet, licit and otherwise, and they go into more depth, and the same applies to RHCE/RHCSA material. The training for certifications like that covers what you want to know but also puts it in context, and again licit and otherwise sources are available.
Nice. I would recommend measuring the usage not from what the device reports but from actually measuring at the wall socket. The conversion is likely meaningfully under the 95% efficiency of some tools and that waste is felt as heat. If you convert to 24V from 120V you will have a significant amount of heat as waste which is unreported in home assistant. If you have the option to use a relay it can actually turn the thing all the way off, allowing almost zero usage when not on, but it can be a little slower to respond.
