UN Reports millions in Haiti face acute hunger epidemic as armed groups tighten control
The UN on Friday highlighted how millions of Haitians are facing severe food insecurity as armed groups continue to expand their territorial control around the country, according to the latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) hunger report. The data paints a dire picture: 5.7 million people, over half the population, are now classified in ‘Crisis’ or worse (IPC Phase 3 or above), marking one of the deepest humanitarian crises in the Western Hemisphere.

Fotovoltaico, considerazioni da fare prima
In questo video di alcuni mesi fa, Simone Angioni discute di alcune considerazioni e verifiche importanti da fare prima dell'installazione di un impianto fotovoltaico.
"Quanto produce davvero un impianto fotovoltaico da 6kW? E conviene installarlo? In questo video vi porto la mia esperienza concreta, con dati reali e qualche sorpresa (non sempre positiva...). Parliamo di produzione, ottimizzatori, auto elettrica, bollette e... un enorme problema di cui si parla poco: la sovratensione.

Taliban, Pakistani forces trade heavy fire along Afghanistan border
Pakistan and Afghanistan have traded claims of seizing each other’s border posts, as border clashes between their militaries intensify following an air strike on Kabul earlier this week.
The Taliban on Sunday said it had captured three Pakistani border posts during its retaliatory attacks at seven points along the border.

Heh, well I'm still cool for using the bleeding edge! Guess what Debian? My packages break so yours don't! Erm, why use an easy installer and unstable leap repo when you can manually go through installing (please forget arch-install/arch-based distros exists) your system and be left wondering why your fstab is broken! Heh, I just know arch is for the cool tech enthusiasts like me~
(Me too, I actually used Kubuntu/Pop!_OS for a brief while before going Endeavour. For me, I wanted to have the flawed AUR, and since I was already trying to go further with KDE Plasma and Unstable Stuff, I thought why not leap to an Arch-based distro? I mean, besides the every month-or-so package warning breakage and learning to install multiple kernels because of.. the instability, lol. It's fun to act like a sectarian too, especially since I'm supposed to be associated with *those* Arch elitists if.. they still exist.)

Hey, manual installation might teach you a lot about Linux, but at least installing my system took less than an hour and I have a functioning system with everything I need set up! While you Arch people almost always spent over an hour and a lot of effort, just to get a TTY booting, and you're still missing things even once you do get your choice of desktop environment and your graphical programs installed and running!
(Tbh, I kinda want the AUR sometimes. But, like, I don't need it, Arch has a reputation for being a pain and forcing you to really learn about Linux by causing you to constantly need to use odd terminal commands to fix problems, and most of my distro hopping urges in general are some combination of "think I understand Linux way more than I do" and "I don't really want a new distro, I just want a new desktop environment." And the funny thing is that so much of what actually seems interesting and new to me beyond just a different DE that's shiny and new, is based on Debian. Lol.)

I added MQTT logging to my 121GW via BT/WiFi
Hi all!
I thought y'all might be interested in my weekend project: Using an ESP32 to read the value from my 121GW DMM and send it to my MQTT broker via Bluetooth and WiFi. This workflow is much better for me compared to logging to microSD cards. The code is an ESPHome config that can straightforwardly be flashed onto most ESP32 variants.
The config and some documentation is available here: github.com/tjhowse/121gw-espho…
A brief video explainer is here: youtu.be/GLtkTARH1eo
At the moment I'm only unpacking the main value, range and sign from the Bluetooth packet. It would be nice to read out the rest of the values, but I haven't felt the need yet. Note that the DMM briefly blanks the display when changing ranges. This results in a value of zero being sent on the MQTT link. All of my testing has been in volts mode, other modes may contain dragons! Please test thoroughly before relying on this for anything important.
Cheers,
tjhowse

Potatoes are not the part of the plant that reproduces through pollination, seed potatoes are grown from other potatoes, the fruits are poisonous, potatoes are nightshades. I may be mistaken, maybe pollination helps? I know potatoes arent ready for harvest until after flowering
I think maybe you could argue cows are largely fed pollinated crops when raised in a feedlot

How close are we to solid state batteries for electric vehicles? - Ars Technica
Every few weeks, it seems, yet another lab proclaims yet another breakthrough in the race to perfect solid-state batteries: next-generation power packs that promise to give us electric vehicles (EVs) so problem-free that we’ll have no reason left to buy gas-guzzlers.These new solid-state cells are designed to be lighter and more compact than the lithium-ion batteries used in today’s EVs. They should also be much safer, with nothing inside that can burn like those rare but hard-to-extinguish lithium-ion fires. They should hold a lot more energy, turning range anxiety into a distant memory with consumer EVs able to go four, five, six hundred miles on a single charge.
And forget about those “fast” recharges lasting half an hour or more: Solid-state batteries promise EV fill-ups in minutes—almost as fast as any standard car gets with gasoline.
This may all sound too good to be true—and it is, if you’re looking to buy a solid-state-powered EV this year or next. Look a bit further, though, and the promises start to sound more plausible. “If you look at what people are putting out as a road map from industry, they say they are going to try for actual prototype solid-state battery demonstrations in their vehicles by 2027 and try to do large-scale commercialization by 2030,” says University of Washington materials scientist Jun Liu, who directs a university-government-industry battery development collaboration known as the Innovation Center for Battery500 Consortium.
Indeed, the challenge is no longer to prove that solid-state batteries are feasible. That has long since been done in any number of labs around the world. The big challenge now is figuring out how to manufacture these devices at scale, and at an acceptable cost.

North Country Delight. Brunswick, Vermont. October 2, 2012
This was the actual color of the mountains. That year it was warmer and a bit wetter than normal, so the trees went unusually red. On the drier years, you tend to get more oranges, golds and yellows. Taken from Vt. Rt. 102, looking east across the Connecticut River (yeah, it's there at the far edge of the field and not wide at all, that far into the north country..) into New Hampshire.
Was taken with a Sony DSC-P93A (honestly a tiny spitfire of a camera!), was 8 or 9 shots then stitched them together and did a bit of spot touching to hide the seams using Photoshop. No color adjustments at all though. This ended up a bit shorter than I wanted, as at the time I did not have a tripod to do pan shots with, so of course the camera was not as steady as I'd wished as I was taking the shots. lots of up and down.. Urgh. But.. a beautiful year up there..

Again I appreciate alternatives but IMHO sharing YouTube links, so BigTech links, on Lemmy isn't great. We should rely on federated alternatives for videos too.
Edit: I did disable JS Shelter just for this (because of Anubis, ironically enough based on the video content!) but it still didn't work. So to be honest even if it did work (which it didn't) it would still not be great.
