Chiming in to say: I've had issues in the past where the WiFi router was factory resetting itself and it turned out this can happen if the power supply isn't powerful enough for the device. In this case, I think I had gotten the WiFi router 2nd hand from Goodwill or something, and the provided power supply fit in the port, and it had the same voltage, but was an amp underpowered, instead of being something like 12volts 3.5amps, the plug was supplying 12volts 2.5amps, and I guess everything was fine until the unit needed more power (likely from routing high amounts of traffic, or more WiFi units connected)
I had no idea factory resetting could be the result of something like this so I was at a loss for a while until I found the info online.
So: check to make sure that
The power supply matches what the unit is requiring, and if it is,
If you have another power plug that matches the barrel jack size, volts and amps, try using that one in case the power supply itself is going bad.
broadcast some people celebrating in the street of the country you just bombed so that it seems like it was justified.
"See, we liberated them from tyranny! The same tyranny I wield at home!"
I haven't been paying attention to this, if it hasn't happened already, I guarantee the talking points from the MAGA civilians will shift to being world police again, and how we had to bomb them to release them from the dictator. Ya know the same people that were angry just 2 years ago about how we stick our noses all over the world and don't take care of our own at home, which Trump ran his entire campaign on: "America first" and all that.
From my initial research for my own Samsung watch, I think you'll probably be required to use the Samsung app to connect your watch as Samsung uses a non-standard bluetooth encryption which requires their specific app to connect correctly. I tried many times with gadgetbridge to no luck.
Yup, my thoughts on this subject exactly and its so frustrating watching both tech people and non-tech people alike, adopt it in the guise of better battery life. The tech people should know better, but they either aren't "hardware people" so they don't know, or they do know, and don't care.
Did they take this idea from the TV show Poker Face? Because there's an episode involving this, except its not an urn, its a record, pressed with the remains into the vinyl.
🤷♂️ I guess you're right, but the take away I got from their last sentence was ICE buying more weapons isn't something they are concerned about or want to hear about, unless its machine guns and hellfire missiles. That's the dismissive part to me. They're saying it's not news worthy unless it's an escalation from the weapons regular police departments already have.
I was the one saying this [ice buying more weapons] is a threat. To U.S. civilians.
Maybe I'm not reading your tone correctly, I get you're maybe trying to correct some misinformation about "missiles topped with warheads", but this seems to be really, REALLY downplaying the threat here, especially with the last line of "if they're buying this other shit, let us know" like what they currently have access to isn't bad enough for the threat to US civilians?
I'm just wondering why you took this take. Again, unless i misread things here. It just seems extremely dismissive of basically a shadow army loyal to Trump.
I'm pointing out your phrasing choice wasn't the best.
On an article where the headline says democrats were interrupting his speech you said Democrats are spineless. Could have just left it at democrat leadership.
Thats all i'm saying. But please go back to calling me names for daring to question why you're blaming ALL DEMOCRATS on an article where SOME DEMOCRATS were heckling him.
Its coming to light in modern times, that they realized they could grab land and money by accusing vulnerable people, and then just taking their land when they couldn't defend themselves against a confession under torture.
There's this weird phenomenon that people tend to think those in the past were less intelligent than now, when really it was history being spun a certain way. For example: the witch burning thing, most people accusing witches, etc didn't actually believe that shit. Its coming to light in modern times, that they realized they could grab land and money by accusing vulnerable people, and then just taking their land when they couldn't defend themselves against a confession under torture.
Keep in mind all the advancements and progress humans have made in mathemathics and sciences over the last few thousand years. Those people weren't stupid, if they were doing stupid things, its probably because they were evil (like burning witches for their own financial gain)
If you go this route and its a semi permanent solution, would probably be better to get a ip camera or something instead of a smart phone, that way you don't have to worry about the phone battery going bad from being plugged in 24/7.
I think this stuff sort of depends on how often you upgrade drives. I bought 2 4TB drives in 2015 running in a ZFS mirror, spinning 24/7 as I had heard that the hardest time on a spinning disk is the initial spin up from cold boot, or sleep. (I'm not sure is this if true anymore, but I had disabled sleep on the drives, regardless)
5 years later, I bought 2 10TB drives to upgrade my storage capacity, and relocated the 4TB mirror to media content, and stuff that was replaceable if the drives failed, so I didn't need to really back it up.
Juuust now, at the end of 2025, 1 of the initial 4 TB drives failed and now my 'old' ZFS mirror is in a degraded state running on 1 drive, but the drive that failed lasted 10 years.
I bet the average home lab or self hoster is probably upgrading and replacing their drives with higher capacity more often than 10 years, so they probably would never actually see a drive fail in real life use.
Ah Tesla... I too attempt to accomplish tasks by being a leader and going completely insane.
