Since the earliest days of the post—Oct.7 U.S./Israeli genocide in Gaza, corporate media outlets have claimed that Hamas uses Palestinian civilians as human shields.
Such claims have two major problems. One is the lack of evidence, and the other is the extensive evidence of Israel using Palestinian civilians as human shields.
Over the course of the genocide in Gaza, corporate media have frequently ignored this body of evidence.

Yasunao Tone, a composer and artist who bridged the gap between music and visual arts, has died at age 90. Here's @ArtNews's tribute to the cerebral, experimental and highly influential sound maker, who described his work as like "a parasite without a host," and of whom Yoko Ono once said: “I think people will be surprised to know that the usual notion of Asian music will be totally destroyed when they listen to his music or read his scores. He is not Asian. He is Martian.”

Wireless Doorbell Extension Features Home-Wound Coil
Today in the it’s-surprising-that-it-works department we have a ding dong doorbell extension from [Ajoy Raman].
What [Ajoy] wanted to do was to extend the range of his existing doorbell so that he could hear it in his workshop. His plan of attack was to buy a new wireless doorbell and then interface its transmitter with his existing doorbell. But his approach is something others might not have considered if they had have been tasked with this job, and it’s surprising to learn that it works!
What he’s done is wrap a new coil around the ding dong doorbell’s solenoid. When the solenoid activates, a small voltage is induced into the coil. This then gets run into the wireless doorbell transmitter power supply (instead of its battery) via a rectifier diode and a filter capacitor. The wireless doorbell transmitter — having also had its push-button shorted out — operates for long enough from this induced electrical pulse to transmit the signal to the receiver. To be clear: the wireless transmitter is fully powered by the pulse from the coil around the solenoid. Brilliant! Nice hack!
We weren’t sure how reliable the transmitter would be when taken out of the lab and installed in the house so we checked in with [Ajoy] to find out. It’s in production now and operating well at a distance of around 50 feet!
Of course we’ve published heaps of doorbell hacks here on Hackaday before, such as this Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) doorbell and this light-flashing doorbell. Have you hacked your own doorbell? Let us know on the tips line!

La serpente ha una texture scamosciata e le sue scaglie sono visibili. Il terreno è composto da piccole rocce e sabbia, con un paesaggio arido e desertico. La serpente sembra essere in un ambiente naturale, probabilmente un deserto.
