The new-ish Federal Trade Commission head has been making a push to work on quite a few projects for the past couple of years. They have a very small resources and man-power compared to the war chests of multibillion dollar companies, but recently, somehow managed to bring charges against Google as a monopoly. This in my opinion is a good thing. I consider myself a social liberal and a fiscal conservative. I don’t like how our government seems to take the money of these companies and turn a blind eye as they do what they want in pursuit of the almighty dollar. I support her endeavors working for the interests of the majority of people and not those few with the most money.

It's the same thing in the US. I see C-130's flying in formation and think they're probably training or clocking flight time. OP is using terms like "militarism holidays" which I've never heard anyone use in conversation here, ever. We have "air shows" on patriotic national holidays like Independence day, or Memorial day. At some large sporting events like the NFL Superbowl, or maybe the MLB World Series get "flyovers" over the stadium.

I’ve got a few of their bundles we’ve played multiple times. Quiz night style games are awesome for a while, but we like to play a more action(?) style of games where you control your character and work together or go off on your own to progress the group.

I thought last train outta worm town was awesome.

Couch co-op is rare these days, but I would like to see more co-op in general. I used to have game nights on Friday night with friends on discord, but we just ran out of good games to play. Limiting factor being how many people can play at the same time. Most of the co-op games we have right now seem to be designed to make you miserable. You’re gonna fail, but how long can you last? I just want to have some fun with 2-6 friends without getting discouraged. One of the best ones we played was “Golf With Your Friends”. I don’t even like golf, but we all could play, no one had to sit out, and we had a blast until it got boring.

This cabinet is truly spectacular—one of the finest you’ll ever see. It's got so many shelves, folks, you wouldn't believe it. Absolutely tremendous. Each shelf is perfectly designed to showcase your prized possessions. Believe me, the craftsmanship is second to none. These shelves are not just shelves; they’re a statement. They’re big, they’re beautiful, and they hold everything perfectly. This cabinet is going to be a tremendous addition to any room—nobody does shelves like this, folks. It’s going to be huge!

It looks like a point-to-point relay. There appears to be two different sized dish antennas on each antenna “pod” which would indicate two different frequencies are in use. I’m sure it’s the method they’re using to transmit the camera feed back to a landline connection. The poles without a camera are probably just a relay to get the signal down the next hop in the chain, or maybe there is some other sort of sensor data being collected at those points.

Looking at the UniFi stats azdle posted the dishes in the pod are separate send and receive dishes. The size denotes the dbi gain.

Woah there. You’re using about 25% more of your brain than the rest of the internet. We’re gonna need you to tone that reasonability down a bit.

I look forward to setting up my next polyamorous network connection. I can wait for the commands nmcli con choke me daddy ens1 thrupple0

I second XLT.

A large for me is basically a men’s crop top, and my shoulders are too wide, so I have to up-size to an XL. An XLT is almost always a perfect fit unless it shrinks in the wash.

Ethernet speeds historically were measured in 10/100. In my past life I worked for an a small rural isp. And part of my learning I was taught that cat5 was 8 strands of wire, or 4 twisted pairs. I got very familiar with crimping patch cables. If one strand were cut a network card would negotiate down to its lowest speed and still work at 10mbps. Operating on 4 wire or two pairs. It’s possible with those numbers you had a bad connection, or a broken strand in the cable and it auto negotiated down to 10mbps. To this day I still crimp my own cables, and I own a cheap cable tester to make sure the crimps and cables are good.
