Indefensible as in it is a decision Trump cannot defend, or as in no one can do anything about it? Seems to be both.
Executive branch power has been bolstered for decades. Unfortunately, this is the first time a narcissist with a complete lack of empathy is in a position to use it. Even if you support Trump, what happens when one of the other side takes that seat?
I was just discussing Saskatchewan's unique climate today and a colleague made a great point; because of our extreme climate (80 degree C temperature differences annually with several severe weather events), we have less sensitivity to noticing worsening climate events or trends.
Drought seems kind of normal. Severe thunderstorms and hail are kind of normal. Blizzards are kind of normal. Heat waves and cold snaps are kind of normal. Unfortunately, this is a bad frame of mind to have for a province with a large agriculture industry.
I've got a similar setup. BlueIris is my NVR but I have the reolink integration on HA to trigger alert notifications that include a screenshot and activate lights at night upon detection. Only downside is that BlueIris is Windows only.
OP, I also think it's probably doable with automations if you're fine without full time recording (suppose you could throw an SD card in the cams for that), but some data management automations that delete clips older than x days are probably good too.
Traffic data kind of requires driver tracking data to be sent to the cloud, which usually goes against the philosophy of projects like this. Unless they're obtaining it from a third party, I doubt it'll be a feature they implement.
It's always been a bit of a mind bender. Provinces with a massive industry extremely sensitive to actually being able to grow things in the ground who lobby for a separate industry of which the products actively threaten the former's existence. Especially troubling when the former is renewable, and the latter is not.
I suppose it makes sense when the politicians are in the deep pockets of the giant oil corps rather than the smaller pockets of farmers, though farming is becoming more of a giant corp game too.
I disagree, conservatives reduce taxes on corporations and the rich. Alphabet has all the incentive to subtly (or not) nudge the narrative so more people vote conservative.
I definitely notice the political ragebait suggestions too. I've had all kinds of blocking on the platform for a long time, so it's scary to think (but not overly surprising) that that is what they're trying to spoonfeed everyone.
Hypocrisy is the conservative way, though. The Canadian conservative party leader (but not actually an MP) got into politics saying if he were Prime Minister, he would enact a two-term limit (8 years) for all MPs.
He was an MP for 25 years until he lost his seat this spring. Ironically, one of his campaign slogans was 'vote for change'. Upon the electorate voting for the change of their representative and him losing his seat, he then went to Alberta to steal another conservative MP's seat, while also continuing to reside in the mansion for the official Leader of the Opposition in Parliament.
It's almost comical that his election tagline was, "vote for change", and then he refused to accept the change his constituents voted for.
