Got it working again with a replacement power adapter... but only with the secondary USB-C port in the dock connector, not the primary charging port.
The Thunderbolt firmware issue probably took out the main charging port. It doesn't work as a charger, but does work as a USB port and recognized the USB ethernet adapter I plugged in.
I also updated BIOS and firmware with the Lenovo System Update utility.

The main difference between The Empire and the US is that The Empire was actually competent. Imperial officers at least pretended to be sober at strategy meetings. TIE fighters actually flew while F-35s need therapy sessions. The Empire fell because of rebels; the US will fall because the SecDef leaked nuclear codes in a Signal chat.

there's so much sanctions on iran right now i don't think western nations trade much with them. they're fairly developed though, and they produce a lot of oil (we don't buy it) and they have modern infrastructure
Good time to remember Former General of the US Army Wesley Clark on the military strategy after 9/11 attacks: "We are going to take out 7 countries in 5 years: Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and finishing it off with Iran"
Never forget, Joe Biden did nothing but stop all military activity during his term as president. The world was completely at peace this time last year.
@Sir Matt Guess you're memory is not so good, I remember both Russia - Ukraine and Israel genocide against Palestine both in high gear this time last year.
It wouldn't surprise me if the Israeli fighter jets are actually landing in and taking off from American bases in Iraq. It's hard to explain the scope and frequency of the attacks if these jets are going back and forth between Israel and Iran. But I am no military expert.
I would like to believe that Iran will respond forcefully, but quite frankly, I think their military strength is likely overrated a lot, in part as a western propaganda to make Iran seem like a threat that needs to be eliminated.
It seems they already eliminated all their leadership and many nuclear scientists.
Tensions in Los Angeles escalated as hundreds of protesters took to the streets in response to President Donald Trump's extraordinary deployment of the National Guard and Marines.
In case you have a plant where you can mix bitumen up to your asphalt business, a complete world will open your choice. You should never be subject to companies that will overcharge you for this material. It is going to permit you to stay in full charge of the consistency of your material you will be utilizing. Finally, the amount that you simply produce may also be modified very rapidly by simply increasing production levels. These options are not available to folks which do not own their own bitumen mixing plant. To get going, you need to choose a business that sells a dependable one you could obtain to your business.
Where Would You Start Looking For These Companies?
The hunt for a bitumen mixing plant may start inside your neighborhood. There could be manufacturers of these products just outside of town. Alternatively, to accelerate the whole process of locating the best business, searching online using industrial websites that market them will probably be your 1st step. This gives you connections to multiple companies rapidly in addition to their contact information. Additionally, you can see what sorts of asphalt mixer plants they already have and whether or not they can produce bitumen.
Will This Be An Excessive Cost To Your Business?
These will never be overly expensive, yet when compared with simply buying this from someone else, it is certainly more pricey. What you are actually gaining is control over your personal business. However, this added expense should go away once you have fully paid off the whole plant. This can be done within quite a while. Others will be profit. This is a fantastic investment into any business that is consistently laying down asphalt for roads and other projects. Those that currently obtain this material from third-party vendors is going to be pleasantly impressed by how easy it is actually to make their very own.
How Do You Assess Bitumen Mixing Plants?
When bitumen is refined, it goes by way of a substantial process. It comes with an initial furnace. This will likely melt everything down. This may result in the atmospheric distillation with this material. There may subsequently be another furnace, and after an oxidizer is applied, asphalt can be made by these mixing plants. As you look at the different components, it will be clear which one is much more comprehensive. Additionally you know which ones are offering you the best discounts. These assessments bring about getting the best plants for mixing bitumen and you may go for an excellent deal.
Owning your own bitumen mixing plant is incredibly very easy to accomplish. They are marketing these on the web. They could have them within your city. Your observations of listings online will help you find their websites. You can then consider the different products they are selling. This information can bring about your eventual buying of one of these simple very unique items. It's likely to be simple for you to discover and eventually get an mixing plant that is ideal for utilizing bitumen.

This video was inspired by the following blog post, which echoed my sentiment and ideas exactly: ypsidanger.com/the-distributio…
The distro packages the software for their users. Not the developers of the software, the distro itself. So the distro has a decent amount of control over what they offer, but the users of the distro don't, and the developers of the apps also don't. And this model doesn't really work.
On the surface, for users, it does work. You get a lot of applications from a central repo, and the system is generally pretty stable, depending on the distro you pick. But in the background, you have the thousands of orphaned packages that are still in the repos but aren't maintained. The old apps that can't be packaged at all anymore. The maintainers spending a lot of time repackaging and recompiling software that has already been packaged.
One might not like Ubuntu's snap packages, or Flatpak, or AppImages, but it's undeniable that most distros are moving towards them.
When Ubuntu moves Firefox and Chromium from a deb package to a snap, it's a GOOD THING. For Ubuntu. Because instead of having to package each new version of Firefox or CHromium for all currently supported versions of Ubuntu, they only have to package them once.
Same thing when Red Hat drops the LibreOffice RPM in favor of the Flatpak. Not having to package that behemoth of an app will free up time for Red Hat developers to work on HDR, improving Wayland, and supporting color management.
And moving the packaging of an app from the distro to the app developer means less time spent debugging stuff, and more time spend on improving the app.
So why did Linux distros start packaging software instead of app developers?
It was because there were so many different systems using the same packaging formats, deb or RPM or whatever else, but different libraries, kernels, drivers, and everything else, that app developers simply did not have a way to distribute their own software to every distro.
But nowadays, we DO have formats that let you distribute applications everywhere with one single package.
They lack some features, especially due to the sandboxing they tend to use, that limits how they can interact with other apps. Thing is, these formats are still under heavy development.
But the real question is: do you prefer staying on the current model where we stagnate, duplicate work, and where developers and users have no control over which version of the software is used, or would you rather face a few teething issues, but let developers improve their apps, and the whole of the Linux software ecosystem?
I know what I choose, and it's not these old packages. And presumably, if you stick to mainstream distros, like Fedora, Ubuntu, or their main derivatives, chances are you're not going to have a choice either. Because whether you like it or not, we're moving to Flatpak or Snap on most distros.
It's more efficient, and their current problems can and will be fixed. The duplication of work that legacy packaging creates is unfixable, it's a structural problem.
And of course, if you hate these universal packaging formats, I'm sure you'll still be able to find a lot of distros that will not move to them even in the future. You'll just be running the non official version of an app, just like what you're doing right now when using a distro's package.
One of the nice things about being on sabbatical is I get to say things like "You should be happy that RHEL is dropping LibreOffice RPMs" without the fear of being kicked out a room you didn't want to be in the first place.
For no reason, today I've been thinking about that time a bunch of GOP House members broke into a SCIF where classified hearings were being held with media in tow, refused to give up their devices, and live tweeted from inside. No one was escorted out or put in cuffs. #uspoli
Just watched the King and the Mockingbird, which supposedly took 40 years to make. Good mech movie with a unique setting (that gets totally destroyed). Some of the music reminded me of Peter Jackson's LOTR, and one of the gags was used later in Ren and Stimpy. Really strange, really tonally diverse, and very high production value. Very French sense of character design, though not as scarily detailed as Chomet's work.
Watched this back to back with Day the Earth Blew Up and the 40's/80's tendancy to spend an hour and a half on a 45 minute story was the most jarring difference.

If you're in the market for a drum mix plant to produce asphalt batches, you might also want to consider batching plants. It all comes down to your specific project needs and the equipment that best suits your requirements. Let' s explore the advantages of asphalt drum mix plants and compare them to the available batching plants.
## The Perfect Asphalt Mix
Creating the perfect asphalt mix requires the right recipe and ingredients. With the right plant, much of the work is taken care of for you. However, there are notable distinctions between batching plants and drum mix plants that deserve attention. What sets them apart?
You likely have some knowledge about drum mix plants, so let's begin by examining batch mix asphalt plant. Batching plants offer their own advantages, primarily in terms of flexibility in production. One notable feature is the ability to switch recipes between batches with ease, ensuring high-quality mixes every time.
Batching plant designs vary, each with its own production capacity and capabilities. On the other hand, continuous drum mix plants excel at producing larger volumes of asphalt. But is a batching plant sufficient for your construction company and its projects?
## Switching Recipes and Storage
The ease of switching recipes on a batching plant is due to intermissions between batches, so keep that in mind. Did you know that many construction companies use silos to store asphalt produced by drum plants? That's because the process is so rapid that the asphalt must be temporarily stored.
Let's say you've decided to go with a drum plant. Great choice, but you still have numerous options. It's essential to examine the available configurations based on the latest models on the market. These configurations play a crucial role in aggregate flow, as they impact the heating and drying of the asphalt and hot air.
Pay close attention to the specifications of drum mix plants, including whether they support parallel flow or counter flow. These are two common types. Double barrel plants, sometimes referred to as double drum mix plants, are also available. Regardless of the type you choose, you'll have a continuous asphalt production process without interruptions.
## Components and Considerations
Familiarize yourself with the components of these plants, such as the drying chamber, dust collection system, and liquid asphalt storage tanks. Don't forget to acquire a storage silo to ensure your asphalt is ready for use at the job site. Here& #39;s to finding the best continuous asphalt plant on the market for your needs.

Israel attacking Iran with American taxpayer-funded bombs means the U.S. will likely be retaliated against. Why do we provide billions to Israel annually? This is ridiculous; let these Zionist fascists fight with their own money.

Disabled elder here. The troubles that come from gun culture are *far* outweighed by the benefits. Guns make us equal. Without guns, the old, the weak, the small and the disabled are at the mercy of the the young, the strong, the big and the able-bodied.
@LevZadov @Tooden @midgephoto The young, the small, the weak, etc are only safer if the ownership of guns, their storage and the sale and storage of ammunition are strictly controlled - compare the USA and Switzerland for proof.
@JMacfie @LevZadov @Tooden @midgephoto there's no denying the amount of pain and destruction that guns have inflicted across our country. however, the sad reality of the matter is that whatever gun regulation that might ever get passed in this country will disproportionately, if not exclusively, be enforced among the poor and racial minorities. (queue up the marx quote). if we lived in any semblance of a representative democracy, maybe i would feel different.
Israeli officials claim that they have targeted nuclear facilities inside Iran. An apartment building was also destroyed, anyone inside likely dead. Israel has declared a state of emergency as it awaits Irans response. Previously Iran declared it would target US troops in the region as retaliation.
@GM7077 Unfortunately this happens to be a sentiment I find it difficult to disagree with. I'm not pro-war but this seems to be all Israel knows how to do, destroy and kill.

in 2023, i showed up to a palestine solidarity protest with a box of #N95 masks to distribute to the crowd. maybe one person took one. almost everyone glared at me and looked at me as if i was an annoying freak. i left disillusioned and discouraged.
earlier this week, i showed up to a protest in downtown #LosAngeles with a box of N95's, and i distributed all 50 of them within an hour. several people even thanked me! total 180 and says A LOT about the character of these uprisings.
Oh yeah it really makes more sense to take funding from public media and give it back to the people who piss it away every time they blink so we can fund more wars and things to kill people and poison the air and water and make life worse and the planet uninhabitable because some rich guys said they need it that way
i still need to do some more welding tonight. i got some done earlier that turned out pretty decent.
what i finally realized is that due to my tig torch being somewhat junky, i have to use additional gas flow above the recommended amount to ensure clean welds - like 25-30 cfm instead of 15-20. someday i'll get a better torch

in the last couple days ive backed up and "deleted" (for whatever thats worth) all my #google drive and photos data. way overdue, i know. but man, do i feel clean. gmail is still left, i have about 5 weeks before my storage limit goes down to whatever it goes down to when you stop paying google for storage. i will never make this mistake again. not with google, not with proton, not with whoever the next "good guy" in tech is. own your own data, be your own platform. f the corpos.
I think next time I reinstall my phone I might cut some of my final ties to Google, I still have a couple useful paid Play Store apps, getting rid of those is gonna suck but I don’t want to continue being connected to Play Services
@clawfulneutral yeah we each gotta map out our own priorities and paths and support one another with whatever knowledge we've accumulated along the way. according to the mobian wiki, the google pixel 3a, which i have lying around, is totally good to go with mobian. hopefully this weekend or next, i'm going to give it a whirl and see if it can be a decent daily driver.
i have never once logged into my server from my phone bc i dont want google having anything to do with it lol
it hasn’t talked to US towers in years at this point (I put my Obamaphone in hotspot mode so I can use the vastly superior Poco while out & about) but I’m really hoping it survives for the long haul so I can try projects like Mobian on it once I have a new daily driver.
@clawfulneutral 😁 im glad you got one thats on the list! i think you told me that you run on graphene, right? i could never get myself motivated to almost-de-google a phone. the inability to attack the kernel itself just drives me nuts. so im pretty excited about trying the mobian thing. (plus, it'll be great to have a phone and a laptop that both run on the same underlying software).
free phone from the government as part of the Lifeline program, since I’m too broke to consistently pay for cell service.
I don’t know if it’s a direct descendant of the program Obama started, but it’s good shorthand to refer to an extremely crappy phone I have courtesy of the federal government. in reality it’s so slow that it’s nearly unusable, so I just put it in hotspot mode and connect to it with my Poco when I’m out running around town.
I did recently move to another state that administers its own Lifeline program, which is switching to just giving out SIM cards, not sure how that’s gonna work in my case since the Poco doesn’t really speak US 4G bands, and its 3G++ capability stopped working in much of the USA like 4 years ago.
@clawfulneutral oooooh lol. i never heard it referred to as such, which is strangely ignorant on my part. it never occurred to me that a phone would become obsolete when bands change. i wonder if that could be fixed and it would be a matter of hardware or software hacking...?
sometimes it’s possible to replace or modify the software which runs the radio hardware and unlock new bands, but often that either doesn’t happen for a device (because it’s either super difficult or relies on leaks of binary firmware) or runs up against hardware limitations of the radio chip itself.
I should probably re-research if anybody has unlocked more US 4G bands for the Poco F1 (which was never intended for the US market) … however, it’s much less possible to jump generations, a 3G radio can’t be made to speak 4G, etc.
I’m not on Graphene yet, still running LineageOS for now. but Graphene is definitely on the short list for next reinstall or next phone, not sure which.
yeah, as far as I know Lineage uses vendor kernels for a given device, not sure about Graphene.
as a Debian user for many many years, it sure would be nice not to be relying on a vendor kernel, but I wouldn’t be surprised to have a lot of hardware features broken as a result. but, Mobian only supporting a few devices would focus dev efforts. and I’ve heard phones like the Poco have a big DIY scene in south Asia so there might be a lot of people working on fixing stuff.
probably worth double checking though: any #LineageOS aficionados know if Lineage uses an unmodified kernel from the device vendor, or what’s the story with that?
@clawfulneutral done checking already? Last time i checked: lineageOS runs on a self-built kernel based on source code published by device makers (gpl). Ubuntu touch and it's debian brother run on halium, a stripped down lineageOS.
I haven’t paid attention to kernel related issues on the Lineage lineage (ha) for quite a while, I’m not sure where I got the impression that they (or some in the ROM scene) were using binary kernel blobs
@Kurt debian brother meaning mobian? i was trying to check but i think my ignorance is making it a bit difficult. it seems lineage is a literal android fork, no? are you saying the same is true of mobian? (i dont know and don't care much about ubuntu touch). @clawfulneutral
@darcher thank you brother. its not a small thing, so i understand you're procrastinating. but i'm rooting for you and let me know if i can help in any way.
Enième «déclassification» des dossiers #JFK: derrière les écrans de fumées, «c’est le #Mossad qui a tué Kennedy» «Kennedy a menacé le Premier ministre #BenGourion», rappelle l’historien Martin #Sandler, qui a épluché les échanges tendus entre les deux hommes.

They're focusing on immigrants now because you always go after low hanging fruit… first.
Once the precedent has been firmly established, has become standard practice—that people deemed unwelcome can be exported to foreign concentration camps, without society at large putting a stop to it—they'll turn to other groups.
