This can only be a good thing. I read that series on Arstechnica about the Boar’s Head listeria contamination. “Heavy meat buildup on walls”

I’ve a friend who works for an international bank in their green initiatives program.
The department for ~~climate initiatives~~ greenwashing at that bank is under the marketing wing. It’s all I need to know about how much the bank cares.
Google‘s (and Facebook, and all the social media ad companies’) business model is predicated on the notion they have a better profile of their victims than the other ad network. They’ll never tell your uncle about what you search for at 2am, but they’ll indirectly sell it.
The best thing to do is to run a wired backhaul, if it’s remotely possible. MoCa or power line adapters are possible options but do your research and assess your own situation. Wifi is more complex that it can seem on the surface, and wireless backhaul adds its own nuance.
With higher end products you may find that you don’t need a mesh network - just one AP may solve the problem. All my neighbours have f’ing extenders which take up a ton of airspace and the houses are 30sqm footprint.
Ubiquiti makes the UniFi line which is prosumer. You’ll need several components; unless you’ve got more than 1gbps service, the UDM is a good starting point. They also make the amplifi line; I don’t think there’s a lot of positive feedback on those products.
Tplink is a Chinese company and therefore immediately suspect in some eyes, but their Omada line is pretty reliable. They also make the Deco line for more home-focused solutions. They’ve been in the news a bit lately, more so because people don’t change passwords from what I recall, but I wanted to mention it.
Why the heck are they storing this data for 20 years anyways?
So far, there’s been a good bit of money to be made in timing the stock market to announcements. But I’m sure no American politician would be involved with insider trading.
Is nostalgic fascism contagious? Seems like there’s an awful lot of it. I hate this timeline.
This is a fair point. China treats workers poorly, and they leverage labour camps for minorities.
It’s not about the technology or the economics. It’s about the symbolism for China.
The whole “China bad America good” concept has been put in a different light of late.
Does EU/North America fear truly China because of its expansionist policies, or simply because their skin is a different colour? It’s not like the USA is above tampering in foreign government and bugging electronics.
I say go for it, Canada. If only because it’ll push Tesla off the scoreboard without the tariffs. They can’t compete.
Burying the lede a little:
Since January 2022, the average number of girls in custody has been just 11, compared with 42 a decade ago.
But more importantly, if they can’t provide the services that young female offenders need, they must be entirely missing the 98% of the young offender community that are also in desperate need of support programs.
How do a couple journalists figure this out yet the government agency, a bank, and H&R block, and the police can’t be bothered?
