I buy a maxed out laptop every 8 years. My 2008 laptop just lost its battery this year, but still works when plugged in.

What sort of anger? The type that could be soothed by sending the White House a peace prize from a Poutinery?

Paul also instructs his disciple, Timothy, to essentially stop being a tea toataler and drink more wine.

Of course, up until the discovery of bacteria, alcohol was the way you ensured your beverages were safe to drink.

Possibly by going on the nostupidquestions community and asking?

I use TP Link C100 cameras in local network mode and a Reolink doorbell in a similar manner. Standard RTSP feeds and an internal mini web server, plus plenty of privacy controls.

Both of these products are pretty cheap considering their configurability — they do both provide the option to do the whole cloud subscription thing, but work fine for me without it. I have Home Assistant on the back end to manage live streams, but find I usually just read data off the internal SD card instead.

Why did people immediately connect Night Watch with GoT’s Night’s Watch, when there’s both a perfectly good book and TV miniseries by the name that seems much more apropos?

Depends what you mean by ‘learned’ — my grandparents talked about their time fighting the fascists from the time I was born.
