Little Bobby Tables has a baby sister. Meet Sally Ignore Previous Instructions.
The technology worked great, but let me tell you, no amount of regular expressions stands a chance against a 15 year old trying to text the word “penis” onto the Jumbotron.

If you're going to run it through duct work, ensure the cable is plenum rated. For Ethernet cable, the jacket will be stamped "CMP".

Teardown of Huawei's new phone shows China's chip breakthrough

I don't believe this is true, though I'm certainly no expert on the subject. Taiwan Semiconductor is the largest manufacturer of the chips, but they use lithography equipment manufactured by the Dutch company ASML.

I hate that bug so much... If you forget to log out however, you can hit ctrl-alt-f1 to switch to the x session, which frees up the shutdown.

Lawyers have real bad day in court after citing fake cases made up by ChatGPT

I absolutely agree. They should be disbarred at the very least. This level of idiocy undermines the integrity of the entire system.

someone was alive and died the most painful way possible

The closest would be the Soyuz 11 disaster. A seal on the re-entry vehicle was damaged when the capsule detached prior to re-entry. Terrible way to go I imagine.

Samsung and Other Manufacturers Disable Phones Bought on Gray Markets: A Consumer Nightmare

I don't trust any of the major phone manufacturers to update my device for an extended time. It is intrinsically against their interest to support a platform long term at the expense of a missed sale on a new device.
Not that I like Motorola, but they do offer an unlocked bootloader on most of their phones. LineageOS supports a number of them officially, which makes for a very easy install and extended support model. Not bad for a $300 phone.

Tired of Jeff Bezos controlling your doorbell cam? I made a privacy focused one that's based on an ESP32 with local Home Assistant integration.

A camera platform small enough to fit a standard door frame isn't going to be able to hold serious optics. The sensor sizes are going to be too small for good night vision, if nothing else.
The temperature issue is probably an issue of economics. Most people don't need such a wide range, so off the shelf products don't support the application, as it would incur additional cost.
Both of these are solvable issues however if you're willing to use a standard security camera mounted over the door instead. There are many cameras that you could pick with large sensors, heating elements, and more.

Wow! That looks amazing, and I'm sure it tastes even better.

Converting space separated string to array
While I do agree that bash isn't really the best tool for the job when working with XML data, there is a simple enough solution.
$ read -r -a arraytest <<< "2023-06-19T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-18T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-17T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-16T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-15T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-14T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-13T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-10T00:00:00+01:00 2023-06-03T00:00:00+01:00 2023-05-31T00:00:00+01:00 2023-05-27T00:00:00+01:00"

How come hypothetically if I make meth in my home. Knowing full well it could explode and take out my neighbors houses, why am I not charged with attempted murder?
