    Exactly, so they can justify declaring martial law. The bill of rights goes out the window, and everyone becomes a hunted target. They'll use AI to search through all your previous online and personal life activity. Your risk will be assessed, classified and dealt with accordingly.

    In theory, the band saw should cut faster as every movement of the blade is in the cutting direction. A reciprocating saw is only cutting half of the time, the other is getting back to the cutting direction of the blade

    When cutting nonferrous soft metals like aluminum, a blade with larger teeth does a better job. Small teeth load up with aluminum and bind. The blade becomes less effective the longer it is used.

    EmpireTech PTZ5A4M-25X

    Any interest is a new/never installed PTZ5A4M-25X PTZ camera? I have one I purchased from Andy last year with the intention of replacing a Lorex PTZ, but never had the chance to do so. Since I have now been restricted from installing PTZ cameras on our property, I have no use for it currently...

    Yo-yo gas prices

    Not to get too far off topic, but it seems the C word event triggered a massive change in the world economy and in everyday life. Seems the tyrants are getting bored waiting for things to take the natural progression route and decided to speed up the timeline. Now I'm going down the rabbit hole

    Yo-yo gas prices

    I guess east coast prices are a little better. I don't remember seeing 20, 30 and even 40 cent jumps in pricing on a daily basis 6 or 7 years ago, right before the big C word

    Yo-yo gas prices

    I'm sure this is likely discussed in other threads, but only as a side dish. Let's make this the main course. Here in Palm Bay, the gas prices are up and down more than a yo-yo. A week ago, it was $3.59, then $3.79, 3.67, 3.81 and yesterday it was back up to $3.99. Can't wait to see what it is...

    2026 New Release from EmpireTech

    Probably not. While no drawings are available in Andy's link, I would be bet the junction box diameter is larger to help keep the camera more stable to prevent imaging shakiness at long focal lengths

    Yep, I been saying, there will be an event that will wake people up to what is going on, and I believe an altercation will ensue, justifying the declaration of Martial law

    2026 New Release from EmpireTech

    I've been given strict orders from command - no more PTZs, or cameras that stand out and this one would definitely call attention to itself from the overall size between the camera and bracket. Believe it or not, we were in court over harassment and stalking allegations from 2 neighbors this...

    And as quickly as these cameras were put up, they are now temporarily deactivated until an investigation can be completed...

    What the Flock is going on here!

    Here in Palm Bay, within the last 2 months, we've had a shit ton of those surveillance cameras installed. They are literally near every intersection, and on our clogged roadways heading onto I95 (luckily, we have 4 exits off 95 :wtf:).

    Blue dot above text cursor and other strange things

    According to what I can find, it is Microsoft's AI powered text editor for Edge. If you click the blue dot it says: "Ask Edge to help me write". It is really annoying.

    Blue dot above text cursor and other strange things

    Was just curious if it was just me or if this is something new for Edge. I disabled Copilot early on, just wondering if the AI text editor is new and if there is a way to disable that as well

    Blue dot above text cursor and other strange things

    Anyone notice a blue dot above the text cursor recently? It almost looks like MS snuck in an AI text editor to Edge. I also noticed rounded rectangular text balloons in the lower right-hand corner, sometimes with a rainbow outline and sometimes not. I have Copilot disabled in Edge
