A brief history of Aboriginal Mourning Day/Survival Day/Invasion Day protests.
No, they're not a new thing.
Australia Day originally held on 30 July 1915 as a fundraiser for WW1 soldiers.
Within three years of the Australia Day date being moved to 26 January in 1935, there were Aboriginal protests calling for equality: youtu.be/cqwrqwCtNL8?si=ggNxoL…

Äike were an Estonian scooter company, which sadly went bust last year. [Rasmus Moorats] has one, and since the app and cloud service the scooter depends on have lost functionality, he decided to reverse engineer it. Along the way he achieved his goal, but found a vulnerability that unlocks all Äike scooters.
The write-up is a tale of app and Bluetooth reverse engineering, ending with the startling revelation of a hardcoded key that’s simply “ffffffffffffffff”. From that he can unlock and interact with any Äike scooter, except for a subset that were used as hire scooters and didn’t have Bluetooth. Perhaps of more legitimate use is the reverse engineering of the scooter functionality.

What do you do when you find a vulnerability in a product whose manufacturer has gone? He reported to the vendor of the IoT module inside the scooter, who responded that the key was a default value that should have been changed by the Äike developers. Good luck, should you own one of these machines.
Has anyone had luck taming or preventing suckers on a fig? This tree is out of control and I’d love to get rid of the bulk around the base. Is it possible to
They're fucking incredible. Thirty-five bucks each MSRP. Come with two sets of heads, three sets of hands, and more accessories than you can shake a stick at.
cowboys of Moo-mesa was a short lived pretender to the throne of TMNT.
Now it's a comic series, and it might soon be a new original cartoon and these toys are Sick.
I am genuinely over the moooon with these toys. I have a softspot for the original toys, which I picked up from a liquidator as a kid when the original television show was canceled.
They were clunky, with no articulation. I never saw very much of the associated media as a kid, but I loved the Design of the characters, and in spite of the fact that the toys were pretty mediocre, I played with them a *lot*.
These are everything I wanted those to be, and reasonably priced to boot. Sheriff Terribull is Massive and imposing and absolutely goofy looking.
I really am just so happy about these silly little toys.
The series focuses on trying to keep justice in the frontier territory. The lawbreakers were too much for the corrupt regulators of Cowtown (namely Mayor...
Something very nice happened at work here in occupied #Minnesota. A colleague with whom I've only interacted a few times (and who works in a different department) came by to check on me (one of the few POC in the department) and asked if he, an attorney, could give me his number in case something happened. He has other legal contacts and is part of an #ICE rapid response network.
This was a surprising and small but extremely meaningful gesture. :) So despite everything, I can feel hopeful...
Apologies for posting so much today. I'll stop with the music for now. Borrowing from King Gizzard, my heart is a mess, my cables are in knots and somehow I'll need to debug myself.
@SrRochardBunson oooh especially because moisture would really gum it up
So if we got leaf blowers that can blow large amounts of corn starch or flour into the masks of undesirables, they'd be forced to take off the masks to breathe
A then you can hit them with chili powder, cinnamon, etc....
@SrRochardBunson flour is a little dangerous though because you can cause the air to combust. Wonder if corn starch may have the same risk (or is this a feature??)
@SrRochardBunson you know what else is great? Veterinary grade lube like they use when you are inseminating cows etc. I believe you can get it in a powder form and just add water.
Oh, the imagery you just planted in my brain... LOL!
But, yes. You can mix it to the consistency you desire, and a little goes a long way.
I think* our recipe is 5 gallons of water, a container of Joy, and tablespoon-ish of J-Lube. It needs to rest a bit for the powder to hydrate properly and mix.
*This is from memory, so don't take it for gospel and the recipe makes bubble solution for ginormous bubbles. It is very slick/slippery.
@SrRochardBunson in the open air you get a pretty impressive, yet brief flash of fire. Not harmful, but will scare the shit out of someone who brainlessly fires a gun in the middle of it. And I believe cornflour is worse/better, because its finer and will both mix with and hang in the air easier.
@SrRochardBunson Mythbusters covered this years ago, any kind of aerosolized carbohydrate can make a big fireball (they used coffee creamer to test the myth). Not recommended to try at home. youtu.be/yRw4ZRqmxOc

@SrRochardBunson @MisterMadge It's a cool trick I learned in high school. Take a package of powdered creamer like you'd find at your table at the diner. Pour the powder in your hand without anyone noticing. Light up a disposable lighter. Make a theatrical magicians wave over the flame a few times, and then drop the powdered creamer over the flame. It looks like you magically made a fire ball. It would burn out quickly and cause no harm with such a little amount.
@SrRochardBunson If you look up "grain elevator explosion", there're a few news reports per year of one blowing up randomly. So it's frequent enough that they put a lot of work into mitigating the risk factors. knobelsdorffenterprises.com/gr…
In this article, we will discuss what causes a grain elevator explosion and what are some preventative practices that minimize the chance of grain dust igniting. Learn More!
@SrRochardBunson thinking more about this: yes activated charcoal is kind of expensive in bulk, but lots of Minnesotans have wood furnaces with a lot of ash they need to "recycle"
