A guy named Brandon Threet. A kid, really. A freshman in college. He kicked my friend Terrence in the head and killed him at a house party. He bullied Terrence, shoved him, and when his guard was down, punched him so hard he fell to the ground. Then he took three steps to wind up and kicked the side of his head with steel toed boots. Then they put him on a couch and ignored him til they noticed he was turning blue. Four days later he died in the hospital.

Brandon spent 20 years in jail and got out in 2022. Not sure what he deserved and not sure if he got it. All I know is Terrence was a prince among fools.

Create an account on a trading site. I’ve generally had good experience with gemini.com. You’ll have to do the whole legal process of confirming your identity with a government ID because they report your profits/losses to the IRS for capital gains taxes. From there, you can use a credit card or bank transfer to buy. Once you have some, you can try to transfer it to another wallet or another exchange to “anonymize” it, but keep in mind that it’s all traceable given sufficient effort by someone trying to track it down. Some currencies are better at hiding that stuff (Monero, maybe?).

If you really want something close to anonymity and quick and easy, your best bet is to find someone you know in real life and give them cash to transfer to your offline wallet.

  1. Scrap NAFTA for your own marginally better trade agreement during first presidency
  2. Manage not to fuck anything up for 4 years because you’re not president
  3. Immediately fuck up your own trade agreement that YOU FOUGHT FOR because of reasons that exist entirely in your own imagination
  4. ???
  5. Hopefully die of a heart attack

Pfft. My racism deserves better! I’ll keep shopping for a fringe group of racist weirdos, thanks.

Why make all these plans and then just walk up to a cop and turn yourself in?

My ex gf did makeup for Danny Trejo for a super small film many years ago. One day she told me to swing by the set at a specific time to have lunch with him, if I wanted. I did! He was super cool. 10/10 would chow down with him again.

Air fryer does a good job of searing, btw! Let it cool after the bath, then smear it with wagu tallow and air fry it on high for a minute or two on each side. Thems good eatins!

 

Hello, and thank you in advance.

I'm making a privacy friendly "ring" cam/doorbell following this guide: https://tristam.ie/2023/758/ which has been great, but requires running a micro-usb cable down to the doorbell for power. I'm hoping to improve on this by using the existing doorbell power instead.

The problem is that I'm a DIY electronics noob and I can't create a mental model for how it should all work. The picture I attached is my existing doorbell wiring scheme, which is as simple as it comes. I totally get how this works. Pressing the doorbell completes the circuit and makes the bingbongs. But this will have to change so the new door cam gets power full time. Ideally without the chime bingbonging full time.

In addition to the ESP-32CAM, button, ring lights, etc., I also bought these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079FJSYGY which I thought might be needed to complete the circuit?

I measured the voltage after the transformer and it was around 18 volts, but maybe this is AC and I want DC?

Generally I don't know where in "the loop" to put things. Also, all the existing components are very far apart from each other, so I would love a solution that doesn't involve running any new wires through the walls.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!!
