    Is the regime in Iran soon to be toast?

    Maybe there isn't any. Everybody that's reporting has their own agenda, and propaganda is a major component of fighting a war.

    Fly Me To The M00N

    Anybody know how long it took to tow the Orion to the ship? Or what the distance was? Unless the ship was really far away, I thought it was all for show to hoist the crew into helicopters instead of taking them away in a boat, or just leaving them inside the Orion until it was towed into the...

    Emergency Power/Storms/Prepping etc

    I have kind of overdone it and have 5 generators, and between them can use gasoline, diesel, or propane for fuel. Add to that 8 kW of solar panels and 25 kWh of battery capacity.

    The official "WTF" thread

    May I disagree? I think what you said is how to short-term respond to it. To fix it IMO, is to do away with the government programs that work against the family structure, the politicians that keep dividing us, and somehow get rid of the money-and-power-is-everything attitude the society is...

    Running Blue Iris 24/7 on old hardware? You might be paying more than you think…

    Newer the better of course, but at least generation 8 IMO. In terms of the speed of technology, gen 8 is actually pretty old now, it's just that there was a significant improvement with speed and efficiency with gen 8.

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    This is more dishonest misinformation spreading around, and so easy to fact check. "Dow Jones under Joe Biden" covers a 5 year period. The chart starts months before he took office, attributing significant gain to him. "Dow Jones under Donald Trump" covers a 3-month period with the chart...

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    But the republicans are more skilled at hiding it and sweeping it under the rug. They're much more eloquent in the deception. They had me fooled for a long, long time. Dems by contrast are crude and repulsive to any but their brainless followers.

    Be careful of being confident! Many times when I'm confident, backed up by a lot of research and number crunching, my wife in a few seconds comes to a different conclusion, and she's right.

    I'm guessing the only thing that would disconnect US oil prices from the world market price would be a total export ban.

    I'd just caution that my report is observational over a few months as opposed to a formal and/or controlled test. So until there are additional reports to confirm or refute my findings, you're taking the risk of being a test pilot, so to speak, and might see different results. If I were using...

    How often do you directly access NVR ?

    My NVR has been in the crawlspace for 7 to 8 years. Brought it up once to swap the hard disk. I have a wireless mouse receiver plugged in, and a VGA cable running to the closet above. I've used the direct connect monitor a few times, not at all for the last few years.

    I have a 6mm HDW5459TM-ASE-IL side-by-side with an S3. By "with people" do you mean for detection or identification? I'll answer both. Detection-wise, it's almost as good as the S3. In general, it detects a person a few seconds later than the S3, and very occasionally not at all. If...

    Money & Economics

    A true statement, IMO, but in this case I say the defect lies with the markets. I've always been amazed that some company or commodity can be golden one day and crap the next day (or vice versa), when nothing has changed in its fundamentals. More than by logic or fundamentals, the markets seem...

    Camo vinyl wrap / tape?

    I used single color on the PTZ. I've tried patterns on the fixed cameras with varying success. Almost all of my cameras are tree mounted, and after a year of junk from the tree falling on them, and bugs crawling on them, they look more and more like they belong there.
