    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.

    Aw, that's nothin'. Doesn't begin to compete with some of the great deals I have. First, US Bank: Schwab: Etrade: I ran across an even better one, 0.009%. Don't remember who it was.

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

    I'm glad you're asking. I'd hate to buy the wrong camera because of not understanding the model numbers.

    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...

    Money & Economics

    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.

    Money & Economics

    Correct, but on the other side of the coin this is what a few representative gold stocks are doing today: I've noticed in the past that when the stocks illogically go down, the bullion price follows them down within days. (I've also noticed that when I make a financial declaration it usually...

    I'd opine opposite that. Smaller geometry means more speed and less power going up as heat, both pretty important as mankind wipes himself out with technology.

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    The coordinated campaign to oust RFK Jr. from the Trump administration is not organic—it’s a meticulously planned, multi-million dollar operation by Big Pharma, exposed by a leaked memo. In July, the Brownstone Institute revealed a bombshell document from Bio, the powerful lobbying arm of...

    EU follies

    I learned a bit more. This election is for local seats in one German state. AP is reporting a total of 20,000 candidates (for all parties, not just AfD). If this were to be correct, I could buy the statistically insignificant argument. Adding to the statistical likelihoods is that these...

    Logic dictates that there will be price increases from the tariffs. The debate is if it's a good thing or not. Short term thinking thinks it's bad, makes it harder to get cheap stuff right now. Long term thinking says it's good, that we finally quit giving away our manufacturing capability...

    This is now in the German media, so I'm starting to believe it's true. From DeWelt: Zahl der verstorbenen AfD-Kandidaten steigt auf sieben Roughly translated as: Number of dead AfD candidates rises to seven. The story is buried in the middle of the politics page, and I would have thought...
