"White previously told the public that he is "confident" the killing was not a hate crime or motivated by antisemitism, and urged the public not to jump to conclusions."

Yep, that arrived promptly.
Perhaps you can add your images to your earlier posts now.
I may be still seeing the issue because of my ISP's proxy.

I want a minimal network attached storage device, it doesn’t need any bays, a single disk would suffice, just an Ethernet port and software so I can plug it into the router. This used to be a trivial ask, but my 12 year old NAS died and there doesn’t seem to be a simple replacement.

Any ideas?

I have been working to get running on my system with graphics. It runs and looks good, games seem to be faster on it.

However, it has a major flaw - if the screens get turned off or the computer goes to sleep, Wayland fails to resume. I generally have black screens.

I have tried things like 'kwin_wayland --replace' and 'systemctl restart display-manager' but they do not succeed. Wayland never recovers until I reboot.

Anyone have any clues?

If my memory serves me well, and that's a big if, @mjg59 knows a bit about ACPI stuff, which may be relevant.

Years of antivaxx propaganda by Republicans and creeps like RFK Jr and Joe Rogan have taken a toll on Americans' knowledge of what protects them from potentially fatal illness. These numbers don't bode well for our collective future. https://www.annenbergpublicpolicycenter.org/vaccine-confidence-falls-as-belief-in-health-misinformation-grows/

Crikey. 20 minutes into TV1 main news and no mention of Gaza/Israel situation. Is the rugby really that important? #NZnewsbalanceiswrong

@BigD @iangriffin
Technically OK, but all the live crosses and TVNZ interviewing TVNZ doesn't add much to anything except their per diems and expense accounts.
TVNZ News needs a management transplant: competent directors with the courage to say "This is shit" especially required.

I was not expecting hearing aids to feature in the Maine shooting story.

The story of the hallucinations starting after the arrival of the "high power" hearing aids is interesting.
Has this been observed before?

Well there's interesting. We seem to have vaccinated a whole sector of the human population against polyethylene glycol. This may have unwanted effects on the efficiency of future vaccines https://phys.org/news/2023-10-nanocarriers-antibodies-polyethylene-glycol-german.html

@vik
While polyethylene glycol (PEG) is sometimes found in vapes, propylene glycol (PG) is ubiquitous.
It will be interesting to see if a similar immune response to PG is found.

I think read-edid was involved and that it was solved by buying another monitor.

I'm looking for a rock solid < 15W pfSense box, that doesn't cost a fortune.

I could go with one of the various N5105 or N100 aliexpress “firewalls” + USB watchdog timer, but not sure how reliable that hardware is for just sitting there without being touched for months. Plus would always worry about the damned things catching on fire.

Other choice is actually a Mac Mini 2014, I know they are reliable, won't catch on fire and sip power. But no hardware watchdog option on these…
