    Trump says Tylenol bad

    I'm ASSUMING that Trump doesn't personally make decisions like this and is just trying to take the credit for them.

    Can you mask certain areas where for IR only?

    I have the same problem. The camera adjusts to the brightly lit plant, making everything you really want to see dark. My solution, maybe should be called a workaround, was to run an IR illuminator in front of the plant, and run the camera IR on a very low setting.

    Got a mailer from the Part D provider today about changes for next year. The biggest surprise for me was no premium increase for my plan. There are a lot of details in the changes, but for the most part, copays increase by $5, deductible goes from $590 to $615, and the out-of-pocket threshold...

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    Having spent much of my career doing software for a large corporation I'll push back on this. It is entirely possible to produce software that performs well and is relatively bug free, but the corporations choose not to, for both cost and time-to-market reasons. They know that sending out...

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    I think you're being too harsh with BI on some of these things. Others that know more would be better with this, but I'll state what I know. h.265 can be used. I think there is some place I haven't run into where it's a disadvantage. I've used it, and the major debate is over if it's worth...

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    This sucks. I understand what you're saying and it makes perfect sense. After taking over a year to get up to speed with BI and finding I can do some viewing related things with it in seconds instead of minutes with the NVR, I have to face not being able to use new camera features with BI. If...

    They never define what a "Typical US Taxpayer", or "Average American" is. I say neither exists, other than in the eyes of whoever is defining them in the way they want, to back up the phony claim they are making.

    Money & Economics

    By opposite I mean either those earning $55K to $157K either got less share of the tax cuts than the richest, or they got more share than the richest. I've seen graphs showing the "middle class" get a bigger percentage than the rich, and graphs showing the opposite. Most of them pollute the...

    I'll offer an example of how the false claims are invented: What he really said (my paraphrase) is: If you believe that people can change their sex, then you're probably willing to believe that the government printing money doesn't cause inflation. These "journalists" are either evil or just...

    Is the share measured in absolute dollars of the cut, or percentage of prior tax? I think this is one case where you can produce opposite results based on what data you're using.

    WICS in Springfield, IL is one of the Sinclair stations. I'm familiar with the Sinclair station in Portland, OR, and they are mostly a platform for liberal talking points that are fed to them. When you see the collage videos of multiple stations broadcasting the same word-for-word political...

    Money & Economics

    Unfortunate that when you pull that money out, it increases the amount of no tax on social security that you have to pay. If you're in the 10% marginal bracket, the net effect is what you pull out is taxed at 22%, unless you're under the no tax on social security 0% threshold (unlikely), or...

    Experience with Unifi Protect and UNVR Pro

    Ditto for me, the main reason being the center hotspots. We'll see if it's improved in the new PRO cameras.

    Interesting media info on the alleged Russian drones "attacking" Poland. Here is what we know about the Gerbera: * It is a cheap long-range drone which Ukrainian intelligence says is made of materials like plywood and foam and assembled at Russia's vast Yelabuga facility. * It has a broad...

    "Came from Ukraine" is ambiguous. Could mean launched by Ukraine, launched from Ukaraine, manufactured in Ukraine, resold in Ukraine, or overflew Ukraine airspace before entering Polish airspace. Typical political BS.

    On the drones breaching Polish airspace, after reading the morning news this is what I'm supposed to believe. They were indeed Russian drones. Launch was from Belarus. Russia says nothing in Poland was targeted, the drones just lost their way. One side says act of war, other says unfortunate...

    Ubiquiti's New UNVR-Instant-Kit (Comes with UniFi Protect, ViewPoint, 1TB HDD, and 4x G5 Turret Cameras)

    Is there a mixup here between the $699 kit price and the $199 UI Care price? Even the video says $699 at the 3:24 mark.

    First thing I'd ask is believed by who? Isn't it just as likely that they were wayward Ukrainian drones? Plus the post itself says what it believes is unbelievable ;). Right now, BBC says they were Russian drones. Most of the other outlets just say the drones entered Poland during or after a...

    This may very well be true but that's not my purpose for this post. With this and many other examples from the last week or two, it's looking to me like a coordinated media campaign to make it "necessary" to lower interest rates.
