New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?
Check to see how your original doorbell was installed as you might not need to run new ethernet. The electrician that wired up all the phone jacks in the house used the same cat3 cable to wire up the doorbell since that's what he had handy. It made it easy to cut the RJ-11 end off and crimp an... -
US Elections (& Politics) :)
Right, the US is MORE vulnerable because "use of testosterone and similar substances to enhance performance." :rolleyes: This does hit home personally as my wife's young cousin died a couple weeks ago, probably as a consequence of illicit use of testosterone, and he was in the military... -

You posted 2 videos and an out of context verse, so we're all wondering what you mean to say. -
What's Up With Boeing?
The issue I've always had is that humans place more weight on outcomes than actual risk. There will always be extremely unlikely and tragic outcomes for behaviors that are generally benign. -

Hong Kong no longer has freedom of speech now that the Brits have abandoned more of the freedom they projected across continents. The enemy of words is the enemy of everyone. -

I didn't dig in because $2M isn't money. We'll wait with baited breath for you to explain to us how Trump has risked everything for some fraction of $2M. TDS is blinding, in both directions. My recommendation is to avoid blindness. -
Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy
I listened to it today. It was always a shiny object to ideologically possessed tadpoles. The thing that gets me the most is that nobody who supported the many idiotic things will ever confess or otherwise be held to account for their idiocy. Zero people in my neighborhood have BLM posters and... -

My Korean friend also possesses more philosophical understanding in his pinky than 2 stones and a bird. -
AI Good and Bad
Kill 2 stones with 1 bird, as my Korean friend says. -
AI Good and Bad
When people imagine the existential threat of AI, they imagine Cyberdyne gaining awareness and destroying humanity, but that isn't the real threat. At some point AI and robotics will be so autonomous that robots can build robots. A religion that teaches that all people not of the faith must die... -
10/10 all time hotties thread
In 7th grade I was banned from the computer lab at school for finding Baywatch photos of Pam. The teacher printed out a photo from the search history and showed it to me... why did it need to be printed, I wonder? Anyhow, it was worth it. -
Money & Economics
Something we both agree on. If people just Google "what qualities does a currency possess", they'd find crypto has none of them. It begs the question that if it's not even remotely currency, then what is it? That's not to say digital currency won't be a thing (it kinda is already), but that... -

That's always been true. Think of how smart the average person is, then realize half are stupider than that. We're not evolved to reason; we're evolved to survive. That means we're tribal. That means "we're with > stupid". Also, they're all stupid. -
Doll toss
Looked like a nice lift and landing. In hindsight might have been wiser to stay in the thicket than the clearing.- redpoint5

Money & Economics
Uh huh, because all the prior administrations and politicians so wisely pushed against the cries of the ignorant masses that "money for nothing, and chicks for free" isn't a thing. Somehow a particular politician is to blame among everyone in the 20th, and now 21st century. If you're playing...
