  • It’s not that new, actually.

    Mossad killed Mahmoud Hamshari, a leader of the terrorist cell that kidnapped and killed Israeli athletes during the Munich Olympics with a bomb in his (non mobile) phone. They called him, confirmed he was on the phone and blew him up.

    Yahya Ayyash the chief bomb maker of the Hamas was also killed by an exploding mobile phone in 1996.

    The size of the operation here is truly impressive,but it’s hardly new - and nothing another bad faith state level actor couldn’t do. There is a good reason proper governments control incoming shipments of communication devices for their officials and security services very closely.

    Jo,schon klar. Aber du musst halt mit denen die ersten Sekunden den gesamten Verbrauch des jeweiligen Netzabschnittes abfangen können. Was bei 70 Raffinerien + Pumpen + Extraktoren schon ganz schön in die Menge geht. Erst Recht wenn die anderen Fabriken ähnliche Ausmaße haben.




  • Kind of. I am a CEO (that’s the easy part) of a small consulting company in healthcare.

    The hard part is to explain what we actually do: We do consult organisations about (healthcare related) disaster preparedness/risk management and contingency planning. So you call us if you want to have proper plans in case your hospital catches fire, COVID and monkey pox have baby or if you are a city and need to know how to plan for “the day X”. But as we work mainly on a systemic level you can also call us if you need a more intelligence focused plan e.g. “I am going to South Sudan, what do I do if I have an accident?”.

    Additionally we also consult for ambulance services, e.g. how to plan vehicle allocation, etc.



  • Yeah, a proper solar setup would absolutely work - I did something similar with a Pi zero 2w and Motion OS. Actually Pi’s are fairly nice webcams for some speciality applications - e.g. when you want to use multiple cameras from the same device, need special cameras or want something done appliance-sided. And the form factor is decent with the RPI02w.

    I intentionally didn’t use a solar panel as the main power source, but used a regular large USB battery with an analog timer/clock that simply powered the pi on for 20min a day and gave it enough time to take the picture and mail it to me. (I had WiFi at the site)

    The solar panel was only an add-on to increase the time the battery lasted but it worked pretty well during the summer months. During winter it didn’t do too much, but that’s okay - I still got two weeks out of the USB battery which was pretty comfortable. I simply replaced the battery on the days I was on-site and never had a problem.

    I now power a Lora to NB-IOT gateway with a complete solar kit, though with one of these camping kits that provide 60w and charge a battery. The NB IOT gateway takes 12w max(4w on average)so it is more than enough to both charge the battery and run the gateway even on cloudier winter days. But this project is in a pretty sunny spot and it’s placed outside - I would highly discourage you to use one of these in your friends house - the first set I had almost caught fire. No biggie in that location, huge problem if it is your friends home.

    PS: Do you have a chance to use PoE maybe?


  • Stay away from the combo units. They are shit. And the reduced throughput is a major issue.

    A tower design has to have the washer below the dryer, as the washer is creating more vibrations and simply weighs more.

    Not all manufacturers allow a dryer to be placed upon their washers and not all washers have a big enough top.

    Some (Bosch-Siemens-Appliances does i.e.) do offer specialised “tops” that you can use and that are working quite well. (Example

    Personally I would put another lashing strap around the combination, though,just to be extra safe, especially if you have children or pets.

    Other than that the combination works without a problem,we have been using that for around 15 years by now, only interrupted by our experiments with combo machines.

    Mullvad until you are often in the PCR, there I had a much better experience with ExpressVPN compared to basically everyone else.

    If you need a lot of exit nodes in different countries Proton or Pure, but I grow increasingly wary of Proton these days and Pure is getting more and more enshitified these days.

    So I simply use Mullvad for privacy and my own WG service for security.






  • And this ladies and gentlemen is what is wrong with Linux and its communities.

    Technological gatekeeping is THE major problem in the Linux world. You use Linux to use Linux. You intentionally do not want people that you consider “below” you to use Linux or even be present in your communities.

    Most people use computers to get something done. Be it development, gaming, consuming multimedia, or just “web browsing” (which you intentionally use to degrade people “just” doing that). They do not use computers to use computers. They don’t need to and should need to. If you want to do this, good for you.

    But stop trying to gatekeep people out of it. That’s just an a****** behaviour.
