So we're not going to compensate the victims of this crime at all for their troubles; AND we're going to spend the money that should be going to the victims, on new law enforcement in the region to 'reduce crime', presumably because the victims are retaliating against the perpetrators given they've been left with no legal remedy... (hell, I would. I certainly don't blame them, if that's the case.)

It's a really dull activity, right up until you fish out a gun or an UXO...

I love photos like these XD

No power supply. The hdds aren't plugged into anything, with the IDE cables just sitting in the bottom of the case. The random mess of cables in the back is only half plugged in and leads to nothing but the folding table the whole setup is jankily sitting on. It's even got ps2 connectors just because #old pc.

Then there's the lady kissing the case, because that's a thing we definitely do? And the knife...? Wtf.

What would you even use this image for?

The first time, I just saw it's not working; the second time, I was paying attention to the details to see what specific parts aren't working and clues as to how/why.

~~because bulky pockets ruin the look of a garment.~~

Because women's clothes with usable pockets don't force women to buy an expensive purse ontop.

Patience and practice. I prefer an electric shaver vs manual razors; but that's up to personal preference.

Have we actually heard anything directly from Iran about this, or just Trumps blabbering? Just because Trump said it doesn't make it so.

Like we needed another reason...

That could give you a more general idea; but how do they get the confidence/precision to say 'nine' surveys over this particular region, 'two' surveys over another, and active surveys happing over the strait?

It seems like they have more refined intel than that. Almost like a mole or some other near first-hand account.

Counter-intelligence is a rather complex and interesting world. To bad it's another piece of the ever churning war machine.

This in in one of the attached sections below that main story:

Russia aiding Iran with cyber support and spy imagery to hone attacks, Ukraine says

[...]

A Western military source and a separate regional security source told Reuters that their intelligence also indicated intense Russian satellite ⁠activity in the region and said that imagery had been shared with Iran.

Nine surveys covered parts ​of ⁠Saudi Arabia, including five over the King Khalid Military City near Hafar Al-Batin, in what appeared to be an effort to locate elements of the US-made THAAD air defence system, the Ukrainian assessment said.

And it leaves me curious: How do you detect satellite based video/photo surveillance?

Depends on the client.

I was using Jerboa for quite some time: it doesn't provide notifications.

Switched to Boost somewhat recently: it does provide notifications.

 

I work at a very large multinational corporation with a republican CEO/founder that's publicly supported Trump in the past.

One of the VPs posted to our 'all company' community about a contest, creating an art piece including the company logo, to potentially be featured at a FIFA fan festival. Winner gets some tickets to a FIFA game or a cash equivalent.

I responded with a link to an article about FIFA creating a 'peace prize' to kiss Trumps ass with and said that we should not affiliate ourselves with FIFA and that I would not participate.

I stand by that opinion; but posting it like that may have just gotten me fired... I went back in this morning to delete it as fast as I could when It dawned on me just how badly I fucked up. Edited the comment to remove its contents, then deleted the comment. It's Sunday morning; hopefully I got back to it before it was seen by too many and hopefully before it comes back to bite me.

I need my job. I can't afford to job hunt again right now. I need to learn to shut the fuck up.

When using spoiler tags, if you add bold/italic formatting to the title, the title is hidden as part of the spoiler in Jerboa, instead of being rendered as a title with bold/italics.

Cross posted, because it seems Boost suffers from the same problem: not rendering bold/italic spoiler titles correctly.

Boost however renders the Bold/Italics and ignores the spoiler tags, while Jerboa just hides the bold/italic title within the spoiler, displaying no title at all.

The AI bubble begins to crack.

Steve does a better job elaborating on that than I ever could in this text body.

I have had around a dozen smart bulbs/switches/plugs from three companies for 5-10 years now. Globe Suite, Meross, and 'C by GE' (General Electric). All three are dependent on their respective cloud services, and are integrated with Google Home. (I know, I know.... It's time to dump this crap, it's why I'm here) Globe Suite has been great tbh, but 'C by GE' is absolute trash, and one of the two Meross devices have now died, prompting a long awaited change.

My big sticking point is knowing where to start with hardware. I don't know much about the different communication protocols/methods or what to choose (zigbee? Z-wave? Do I need some sort of Hub? Can/should I just use a wifi connection like the current setup? 🤷), and I don't really know where to look to purchase smart devices that aren't cloud dependent. (buying from Canada)

Funds are tight so this'll be an over time project. For now I'm looking to replace three switches. One single pole. One 3-way. Ane one dimmer. Neutral wires are available at all three locations.

Later I'll be looking to replace 3 smart plugs. Adding current/power monitoring would be neat, but definitely not a priority as I have an Iotawatt at the pannel. After that 4 dimmable white light smart bulbs. Finally there's an RGBW LED controller that'll need replacing. The plugs, bulbs, and leds are all Globe Suite; I'm not in a major hurry to replace them as they've given me next to no trouble compared to the other two companies garbage.

Where do I start? Where do you guys buy hardware, and what manufacturers?

What should I be looking for in hardware I can integrate with HA and essentially firewall off from the internet?

Finally, how about things like sensors? (weather, motion, moisture, sound)

The next week or so I'll fire up an HA container just to poke around a bit more. That part I'm pretty confident in, it's just figuring out some hardware to go with it. Thanks for any advice :)

 
 

Sonarr and Radarr keep grabbing releases from a couple specific groups ( 'SuccessfulCrab' and 'ELiTE') for items that clearly haven't even aired yet. These almost always contain only .scr or .lnk files, which have been blocklisted in my torrent client. This leaves Sonarr/Radarr awaiting manual intervention for 'complete' downloads that contain no files.

How do I get them to block anything and everything that contain the strings 'SuccessfulCrab' and 'ELiTE' ??? I want them to stop even trying to grab anything released by those two groups.

I'm so sick of dealing with these.


[EDIT]

OK, so I have been looking at this from the wrong angle.

It is not these groups that I'm upset with, but malware uploaders masquerading as release groups. These names can and will change, making this a game of wack-a-mole if I try to fight it this way.

Initially I'd followed instructions below to block these names/strings being grabbed by the arrs and that does work fantastically; but as above, wack-a-mole. Plus both SuccessfulCrab and ELiTE have plenty of good releases out there, it's not their fault someone's using their names.

So, I'm now running Cleanuparr.

This will maintain a large list of unwanted filetypes in qbittorrent. Then when qbit marks a torrent as complete because there are no wanted files, cleanupparr removes it from both qbit and the arr that requested it, while also triggering a new search for the item.

It can also cleanup items failing to import, stalled downloads, torrents stuck downloading metedata, or things that are just absurdly slow; with varying time scales/stringency.

I'll run this for a bit and see how it goes.

I've noticed a lot of issues scrolling back up in comment sections lately. I'll scroll down to read some comments, then try to scroll back up and the page continuously jumps back down a comment or two making it completely impossible to scroll up any further.

Anyone else seen this issue?

Here's an example post where I just noticed this: (not sure how to make a link Jerboa will open)

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/53856150

If I scroll all the way to the bottom, I can't scroll up past the comment thread about whether cows can eat flour. It jumps back down before the OC to that thread is visible again.

 

I have absolutely nowhere to put it, being in a 5th floor apartment; but I really want a 10' tall skeleton...

Half debating pissing my neighbors off by just dangling its legs off the balcony down at them. But I also don't have $400+ to drop on that rn :/
