They don't want you plugging in your own gear to their network, fine.

Get one of the "5G Home Internet" services from T-Mobile or Verizon, plug your router into that.

Not on their network, they have absolutely no say over it.

Israel killed her 21 years ago.

All part of Israeli policy of bulldozing the homes of people who dare resist them.

The question isn't why Palestinians aren't reporting on Hamas killing someone, the question is why isn't the West reporting on it.

Hamas killing someone is expected behavior.

Oh, I've done everything. It's a known problem with Samsung.

The lack of a response is very much US Politics.

People expect terrorists to shoot innocent people in the head. They don't accept it when people claiming to fight terrorists shoot innocent people in the head.

The wifi may be on, but it won't automatically connect to a network, even if it's open. You'd have to specify which network to connect to.

My advice? Steer clear of Samsung. I have two and the HDR implementation on both is absolute shit with no way to disable it. Picture looks great without it, but with it turned on everything is dark, muddy and unwatchable.

Only way around it is to disable HDR on every device connected to it.

Tons of rivers and lakes, but you still have to be careful. Generally folks are out on the first hot day of the year and forget the water is still 50°. LOL.

There's this place called "High Rocks" and every year people are like "Well, start the clock until the first drowning..."

I'm guessing they wanted "dilithium" and not "matter/antimatter reaction always mixed at 1:1".

For those unaware, Portland completely replaced it's form of city government AND added ranked choice balloting at the same time.

This is the first election. Nobody is 100% sure how it's all going to work.

Previously, we had 5 City Council seats, all elected at large, and each one in charge of certain city bureaus, with the Mayor controlling the police. None of the seats were accountable to any district in the city and the Eastern half of the city was notoriously under represented.

Now it's going to be 3 council members each representing one of four districts in the city, voting on issues like the Senate, with the Mayor acting as a tie breaker.

Actual bureau management will be turned over to a new City Manager position.

 

Multnomah County has announced it’s going to open two cooling shelters, at Portland Covenant Church and Cook Plaza in Gresham.

They will be open from noon until 9 pm. 

 
 

Because Musk did such a good job with that at Twitter... "I don't understand what it is you do, you're fired."
