Sigh. I heard a transformer explode outside and then the power went out, but it came back on. Now I am running around the house whispering to all the machines, "Are you okay? Are you okay? Are you okay?"

The router is inevitably the last thing to pop back up so all these machines have an existential crisis about it.

The cats are cute, but I want this range of emojis.

I found this posted in reply to an article about the current trend of billionaires building straight up Fallout bunkers (Zucc's is in Hawaii!).

The article featured a humanist writer who had *hoped* they'd want advice about how to avoid needing a bunker in the first place... but all they wanted to ask him for advice about were the bunkers themselves, not ways to avoid needing them.

IDF spokesperson:

The IDF reveals the largest terror tunnel ever discovered, a project built under the leadership of Muhammad Sinwar in the northern Gaza Strip.

The fighters of the Yalam unit, infantry forces, special units and the engineering forces of the Gaza Division, have been operating in recent weeks as part of an operation led by the Northern Brigade in the Gaza Division, using advanced intelligence and technological means, to uncover, scan and identify a strategic tunnel route of the terrorist organization Hamas which did not cross into the territory of Israel. The ground maneuver, through intelligence operations in the field, provided a lot of information about the terror tunnels project of Hamas, and helped to deepen the knowledge and mapping about it. Since the beginning of the war, as well as these days, the IDF has been working to locate and destroy dozens of attack tunnel routes, as part of the systematic dismantling of Hamas infrastructure.

The IDF has carried out exploration operations in the tunnel and has so far uncovered over 4 km of the tunnel's route, which reaches a maximum depth of about 50 meters.
The nearest shaft of the tunnel is located about 400 meters from the Erez crossing, which was used for the passage of workers, merchants, and patients for medical treatment in Israel in recent years.

The route has several branches and splits which form a wide and branched network of tunnels. Along the route are sewerage, electricity, communication and telephony infrastructures, as well as the top doors which were designed to prevent the entry of IDF forces. The tunnel allows the movement of vehicles inside it and many weapons of the terrorist organization Hamas were found in it.

The tunnel construction project included a team of dozens of terrorists who came especially for its construction from Khan Yunis to the north of the Gaza Strip. In the construction of the tunnel, materials that have not been seen so far in tactical tunnels of the terrorist organization Hamas were used, as well as the use of special digging machines that were smuggled into the Strip. According to estimates, Hamas invested millions of dollars in the underground layout throughout the Strip.

Offensive actions against our forces came out of the tunnel during the fighting in the territory of the Gaza Strip. A few days ago, terrorists were also identified in the tunnel, who were eliminated by the IDF forces.

I know to most people the new year is just another year, like the one before.

But for me, I like to see it as a chance to start all over again. A marker of sorts. One that gives us permission to try again. It's an opportunity to keep the past behind us and focus on the future.

I know. It's just another day. Just another year. So why not give yourself just another chance to get it right?
