Chlorine for water treatment. Cheap and useful where clean water is difficult to come by and where water is stored for long term use. Also very common to buy if you have a pool. But maybe for middle class households it is not as common of an item - except perhaps in areas were pools are common enough in middle-class homes.

Just a guess!

We are asked to use Projects to manage our work, and we then mapped the project's structure into a folder structure using sharepoint. The thing is, this structure leads to very long file paths, and Windows won't let us open the files using the file explorer because the file path is too long, and so we need to search stuff through sharepoint, download as zip files, and end up breaking the intended organization. The projects page helps create the illusion of organization for the higher-ups but in reality it is a hindrance. We don't have admin access to the computer and so we can't change this file path limit setting. This is just the first that came to mind of an endless list of complaints I have.

jihadist and far-right extremist groups, both of which strongly oppose U.S. military involvement.

Which groups are in favor of U.S. military involvement?

Not a rhetorical question, I really don't know.

There is a freely available arXiv version, in case that helps: https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.17809

Mr Beast went through four controversies in a short amount of time:

Content warning: Sexualization of minors(1) Ava Kris Tyson (former Mr. Beast member) was shown to be a fan of an artist called Shadman that is known for drawing cartoon porn including "Loli" (drawings of sexualized children), and who drew the 8-year old daughter of a Youtuber. Ava bought some of Shadman's art (a non-pornographic piece is seen on a Mr. Beast video), and also made some loli-related comments in the past. It is not clear whether Mr. Beast was aware of this and whether he was also a fan of this content.

(2) There was evidence of the group running a discord with minors in which sexual topics were discussed. Ava was accused of "grooming". Discord chats were leaked and they confirmed the claims about Ava making a lot sexual jokes with a group of minors, but whether this is "grooming" is up for debate, as some consider adults being "edgy" with children not to meet the threshold for "grooming".

In response to both of these, Mr. Beast cut Ava out of Mr. Beast.

(3) There is a "Beast Games" show being produced by Mr. Beast for Amazon Prime. It turns out that putting 2,000 people to compete for 5 million dollars in Las Vegas was a recipe for organizational disaster. People had issues getting their medicines and underwear. People were fed low-calorie meals like a small amount of cold oatmeal and an egg spread at irregular intervals. Some people had seizures and the local hospital reported several injured visitors from the games. It was reported that the team invited people of all ages and then made them compete in physical games for which young men had a very significant advantage over the old players that were also cast. You can see an article about this here, and in the comments you can see many players sharing their bad experiences: https://www.casino.org/vitalvegas/mrbeast-shoots-beast-games-in-las-vegas/

(4) A person who has an employee for a short amount of time released a video in which he claimed a lot of Mr. Beast videos are faked/rigged. He also mentions multiple examples in which Mr. Beast broke lottery laws.

The IP is dynamic, but for my self-hosted services that require a static IP I make use of a WireGuard tunnel between my raspberry pi and a virtual private server. The VPS has a static IP, so my domains point at the VPS and then the VPS re-routes the packets via the wireguard tunnel. In a wire guard tunnel only the server needs a static IP, so the VPS can route packets to the client even if the client's ip is dynamic.

Also in the Netherlands and I have recently extended this concept to my home internet. Since 25 Mbps download / 10 Mbps upload is enough for my use, I no longer have an internet subscription and I make use of $25 LycaMobile unlimited data sim cards for home internet using a sim router. The IMEI of the router can be easily modified, which is also a plus.

Thank you for the update. I'll check again tomorrow (as usual)

I have a habbit of searching my own name a few times a week and sorting by new, to check if my name appears somewhere. It makes sense to me, but I would be self-conscious about it if someone asked me why tf I am looking myself up so often as if I'm famous

 

I would like to use a SIM7600X 4G Expansion Board (like this one) to connect my raspberry pi to the mobile network.

In this raspberry pi I am also running an XMPP server.

I want to then create an account that will bridge SMS messages between the SIM7600 and my XMPP account (should be easy), and ideally it should also be able to bridge phone calls (might be difficult?).

I know about the XMPP-VoIP JMP.chat, and since they are open source I can get some inspiration from them.

I will try to implement something myself, but I am not an amazing programmer. So I am wondering whether there is already some open source project that is more tailored for this application.

 
 

I have a mobile wireless router (PW100 4G LTE Router) that provides WiFi via a SIM card. I have purchased several data "bundle codes". One way to activate a data code is to send a USSD code: *101*CODE#

The router's interface provides a USSD Service interface through which I should be able to send these USSD codes.

When I attempt to load a bundle code, or to check my balance by submitting the USSD code *101#, the site hangs and eventually prints out: "session terminated by network"

If I place the sim card into a phone I am able to issue the USSD codes without problem. So, it is the wireless router that is not properly managing the USSD connection.

I have been trying to troubleshoot this with no success. Do any of you here have experience with WiFi routers, or with USSD codes in general, and might have some suggestions of things I can try?
