It’s one of these: MileSight AI Pro 5M 23x PTZ PoE+ bullet camera (exact model number MS-C5367-X23PE).

I chose the one with the 23x zoom because it lets us see more things further around the lake. But if you want one for stargazing, maybe you’d be better served with the 4 megapixel 16x zoom model (MS-C4467-X20RPE): the page says it only needs a minimum 0.002 lux at F1.6, while ours needs 0.008 lux at the same stops. I find ours’ performances in low-light conditions quite stunning, so the 4M model should be even better.

It’s not a cheap camera, but it’s really worth the money. The fabulous web interface alone makes it worth it: it’s actually useful, pleasant to use, it lets you define users with different rights, it doesn’t depend on some stupid proprietary Windows software, and it’s fully compatible with Firefox as well as Chromium. And of course it’s ONVIF-compatible and it outputs streams the usual way (RTSP and such) so you can connect it to anything that’s ONVIF- and RTSP-compatible.

No but I was replying to her complaining that she found the job terrible and tiring: she kinda signed up for it. So ya know… Cry me a fucking river…

Le normally doesn’t work for the U.S. Attorney’s Office. She used to work as an attorney for ICE in immigration court, and last month volunteered to help prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office deal with the many habeas petitions from immigrants in ICE detention seeking their release.

Maybe don’t work for a criminal organization and volunteer for more?

Start counting the accounts held by prominent US personalities and you’ll find a whole lot more.

So what? Jon Stewart too is named in the Epstein files. But you know what neither Mamdani’s mom nor Stewart did? Fuck kids or try to help a convicted pedo.

Chomsky was a major intellectual figure in my life. For decades, I respected his opinions and looked up to him.

When I learned he was buddy-buddy with the pedos, I was devastated.

On a personal level, the “loss” of Chomsky in my life is the most terrible consequence of the Epstein affair. It made me even more cynical and distrustful of everyone and everything than I was before.

It’s hardly surprising. While voting for Trump the first time could be an honest mistake - and possibly even the second time if you’re truly a dumbass - the third time, Trump voters deliberately voted for a convicted felon, sex offender, patented liar, insurrectionist fascist. They knew exactly what they were doing, they wanted this and Trump delivered exactly what they wanted.

Those 49% are today’s America: a disgusting, fascist America. They’re the disease, Trump is only the symptom.

Remember: in almost everything the Trump regime does, gratuitous cruelty is the point.

I personally call them the American Tonton Macoute: it’s accurate, it doesn’t reuse the overstretched Nazi parallel and never runs afoul of Godwin’s law, the Macoute name is unused enough these days that it’s ripe for repurposing, and it teaches people about the atrocities of the Duvalier regime as a bonus.

Fascist Paramilitary Invader

Is that how we call them now? I did Nazi this coming…

But in the new poll, 51 percent said Trump is doing a worse job than President Biden did

This is staggering: 49 percent think Trump is at least doing as well as Biden. The mind boggles…

At this point, it’s just simpler to assume everybody in the world who gets to avoid paying taxes and obeying the law like the rest of us do with impunity is listed in the Epstein files.

Beyond a nauseating pedophile rolodex, the Epstein files are a list of people with undue privileges, who desperately need to meet the ire of the working stiffs at some point.

I’m all for shitting on any and all members of the Trump regime, but I’m not buying this one: if it’s so classified, how come we get to hear about it?

MLK told his followers to practice economic withdrawal. The exact same thing must be inflicted upon the collaborator corporations and individuals who enable the Trump regime to exist.

“If you let me fondle your boobs in front of my pedo friend, I’ll make a documentary about you with some rich billionaire fuck’s bribe money in 30 years.”

The life of the rich and famous truly is an endless wave of nausea.

Funny, I want to execute GOP governors. And senators. And congresscritters…
Bad, bad human being…

If you want to know what Trump is most guilty of, always follows who he sues over what.

I bet his fingerprints can be found all over Epstein’s island…

Satya Nadella described Copilot as “becoming a true daily habit,”

Kind of like the percentage of people who start biting their nails or try drinking after work make it a habit I guess: just because it’s a daily habit doesn’t mean it’s good for you.

Part of the problem is when you don’t want to touch Copilot and Microsoft shoves it in your face at every opportunity: maybe you might have given it a spin out of curiosity at some point. But like anything overly intrusive, what you develop instead is a deep rejection of the thing being forced unto you.

You say you won’t tell what you’re gonna do with your guns on a public forum, yet you feel the need to mention that you bought guns on said public forums…

Po-ser.

It’s all show. If ICE shows up at your door, you’ll say “Yes Sir!” and you’ll scream “No! I’m a US citizen!” as they drag you away to a DHS-sanctioned concentration camp.

You’ll do exactly nothing with your guns, because you know as well as I do that the ICE goons will pump you so full of bullets if you do that there will be more holes than flesh left on you.

If you had anything serious in mind, you would have kept your gun purchase hush-hush.
