Lebanon

Meiss Ej Jabal Hospital
Hanin Hospital

Iran
hospital in Kermanshah

That's all I could find, but I might have missed some. Just to remind everyone, that there is only one bloodthirsty aggressor here, and it isn't 'the Arabs' or Iran

CLARIFICATION EDIT: Of course, bombing hospitals is ALWAYS a war crime.
Just ask yourself why our western governments have allowed for 30 hospitals being bombed, besieged, flattened, medical staff abducted by Israel in the first place.

KDE Plasma Mobile — The Dev Log: April 2024 - June 2025

This blog post is already quite long, so it will omit changes merged for Plasma 6.5 (releasing in October, to be announced in a future post).

With the Plasma 6.2 release, we moved Plasma Dialer and Spacebar to the Plasma release cycle, allowing us to have consistent releases of the two apps. This completes our year long move to having all Plasma Mobile related projects released as part of wider KDE releases, streamlining the work for distributions and taking a load off us on having to maintain a separate release cycle!

In other news, a Fedora spin for Plasma Mobile was released! It will only be targeting devices that can currently boot Fedora (i.e. not ARM phones), but is very exciting nonetheless!

The Plasma Mobile team is happy to announce the developments in the project over the past few months! Housekeeping This blog post was completed much later than originally planned. In the meantime, several releases have taken place:

Last time i tried plasma mobile it was unbearably slow (even slower then the normal unbearably slow) so i switched to phosh, but I would like to try it again so let's see if these updates made it any more usable.

UPDATE: Honestly i'm impressed, it might be because currently im not running waydroid beside it like i did on my previous Phosh install but it feels very responsive. With the angelfish browser providing a way better experience then firefox. The battery life is still very bad but outside that this could be used as a regular phone.

Converting Wood Residues into Clean-Burning Charcoal

Sawmills, furniture plants, and forestry operations generate vast volumes of wood residues—offcuts, shavings, bark, and dust—that are often underutilized or disposed through open burning. Converting this biomass into high-quality charcoal through thermochemical treatment addresses both waste management and energy transition objectives. Deploying a modern charcoal machine enables controlled carbonization, producing clean, energy-dense solid fuel suitable for industrial and household use.

Feedstock Characteristics and Suitability


Hardwood residues—such as oak, beech, or acacia—are ideal for charcoal production due to their dense lignin structure and low ash content. Softwoods, while abundant, tend to produce lower fixed carbon and more volatile byproducts. Mixed sawdust can also be used but often requires densification through briquetting to maintain consistent feed into a continuous reactor.

Moisture content is critical. Wood waste above 15% moisture reduces thermal efficiency and increases condensate volume. Pre-drying, either through solar racks or low-temperature belt dryers utilizing waste heat from the wood charcoal making machine, ensures optimal pyrolysis conditions.

Controlled Pyrolysis for Clean Combustion


Traditional kilns emit smoke, tar, and particulates, contributing to local pollution. In contrast, modern woody biomass pyrolysis plant systems use indirect heating to initiate pyrolysis under oxygen-limited conditions. This process converts wood biomass into fixed carbon while releasing volatiles that are either condensed or combusted in a secondary chamber.

Operating temperatures between 450–600 °C produce high-grade lump or granular charcoal with carbon content above 75%, minimal ash, and low sulfur emissions. The enclosed system architecture ensures complete gas capture, allowing for the production of clean-burning charcoal without atmospheric contamination.

Gas and Energy Recovery


During pyrolysis, wood volatiles—including methane, carbon monoxide, and light tars—are released. These gases can be routed back into the heating system of the charcoal machine, reducing external fuel input by up to 80%. Excess thermal energy may also be harvested for pre-drying wood feedstock, powering steam turbines, or generating process heat for adjacent industrial units.

This closed-loop approach minimizes the plant’s carbon footprint and improves the overall energy balance of the facility.

Emission Control and Environmental Compliance


Advanced units include gas scrubbers, electrostatic precipitators, and thermal oxidizers to treat off-gases before atmospheric release. This ensures compliance with tightening emissions regulations in regions such as the European Union or Southeast Asia.

Additionally, integrating baghouse filters to capture particulates during feed handling and post-processing minimizes workplace exposure and environmental discharge.

End Product Applications


Charcoal derived from wood waste has a wide range of applications:

  • Industrial fuel: Used in metallurgy, ceramics, and lime kilns due to its high calorific value (\~7,000 kcal/kg) and low ash.
  • BBQ and household heating: When shaped into briquettes or lump form, the clean burn profile and low smoke output make it suitable for residential use.
  • Activated carbon precursor: Hardwood charcoal with high porosity can be further processed into activated carbon for filtration and purification industries.
  • Soil amendment: Fine charcoal powder serves as biochar, improving soil water retention and nutrient cycling.

By tailoring process parameters—such as heating rate, residence time, and final temperature—the charcoal machine can be optimized to produce targeted carbon products for specific markets.

Economic and Operational Considerations


A mid-scale charcoal machine plant processing 2–3 tons of dry wood waste per hour typically requires 300–500 kWh of auxiliary power and operates with minimal manual intervention. Maintenance focuses on refractory integrity, rotary seal condition, and heat exchanger cleaning. Return on investment is driven by feedstock availability, proximity to end-use markets, and potential carbon offset revenues.

In many forestry regions, such conversion plants qualify for green financing or government incentives under circular economy and biomass valorization programs.

Transforming wood processing waste into clean charcoal not only diverts biomass from waste streams but also supplies a renewable energy source aligned with environmental and economic imperatives. Through efficient use of a charcoal machine and integrated process design, this approach establishes a sustainable model for decarbonized fuel production from industrial wood residues.

Half the problem with autism and adhd both is difficulty with habit formation and maintenance.

You don’t need habits. You need routines with reliable contextual triggers. They’ll fail from time to time and you will just have to be okay with that, and try to figure out exactly what made them fail when they do so maybe you can fix it going forward. But it will still occasionally fail.

You can’t make a sieve not leak without making it not a sieve.

Triggers are the real key. Like needing to use the bathroom in the morning. Then hang a habit of taking meds right after. You have to look at the habits you already have, and connect new things to that.
You can also build new habits, but if they are forced, they won't have a high success rate. I built a habit of looking back into a space I am walking out of when not in my home. I built it on the anxiety of forgetting something. So it stuck. I try to build a habit of letting others talk, but it has no trigger, so it hasn't stuck.

First, X.org will be even more abandoned. I'm not saying every distro will drop it entirely, but I'm expecting way more distributions and desktops to announce in 2024, that X.org won't be a supported platform anymore in 2025, or at the very least won't be the default session.

I would be surprised if, in 2024, Ubuntu didn't announce something similar for the following year.

The second thing I think we'll see is a fully open source stack for nvidia being available for Linux users. With the Linux kernel 6.7 bringing support for the GSP firmware, letting Nvidia GPUs be reclocked by the open source Nouveau drivers, and NVK now part of Mesa, and providing decent performance already, I'd say 2024 will be the year where Nvidia users can finally enjoy a good experience on Linux without anything extra to install.

In terms of market share, we've seen some healthy growth in 2023, ending the year on a potentially anomalous 3.8%, the highest the Linux desktop has ever been. In 2024, I'd expect this trend to continue: people don't seem to enjoy WIndows 11 that much, and they already didn't enjoy Windows 10 all that much either, and with Microsoft cramming more and more ads in their OS, and potentially moving to a subscription based model for Windows 12, I'd expect more people to give Linux a go, and mathematically, some of them will stick with it.

All in all, I don't think we'll jump to something like 8 or 10%, but I'd be surprised if the Linux desktop didn't reach 5 or 6% on its own, and about 10% combined with Chrome OS.

I would also expect 2024 to see a standalone release of SteamOS for any computer, and I'd say our market share will probably rise to about 3, maybe 3 and a half percent, but it won't be a major change, and the situation in terms of how many games we can play will be relatively stable, with major names still missing.

Now let's talk about the things I feel will stay exactly the same in 2024: starting with packaging formats. What we might see is more distros deciding to provide specific apps using the official snap or flatpak, like RHEL is doing with LibreOffice, because for some apps, it simply makes no sense to repackage them all the time, but that won't change the status quo.

Same thing for what we generally call Immutable distributions. I don't think they'll gain that much popularity in 2024, because they're often linked to using either flatpak or snap, or Nix packages, can't forget about Nix or I'll get comments again, and since we're not making these formats the only choice any time soon, I don't think this group of Linux distros will conquer the general Linux desktop audience either.

As per app support, that's another area where I feel we're not going to see much progress. And I'm talking big name apps, like Office, the Adobe Suite, Autocad, and the like. Even if my predictions for Linux market share come true, the potential revenue from supporting Linux is still low and will still be low, compared to the effort of porting the app, finding a packaging format that allows you to do everything you want, and then supporting that version.

Refurbishing an Old Lava Lamp

Just got through replacing the power cord and switch on an old lava lamp while keeping the appearance, other than the cord color, identical. The original cord was brown, the new one is white, but otherwise identical.

I got this so long ago probably 40-45 years ago and I just recently pulled it out of storage and added it to my office decor, add a little red light which the LED bulbs do not produce, and some motion.

The switch had become intermittent and since it was integral to the cord, fixing it really required replacing the whole thing, but this was challenging. First there was a cardboard with felt disk on the bottom I had to remove, it was glued on but careful work with a pocket knife released it intact. Then the socket was held to the bottom with a nut but you could not remove the bottom plate as it was spot welded to the base, so the only way for the socket to come out was through the opening for the bulb and given this was only about 1/32nd of an inch larger than the socket itself this was no fun.

Reinserting the socket back into the hole in the base was tricky since it's basically a blind operation but after much futzing finally got lucky and got it through and put the nut back on.

The cord was mounted in the base with a heyco, but I managed to compress with vice grips and remove intact and use with the new cord.

All in all it was a challenging operation. Now I just have to wait for the glue on the felt pad on the base to dry and it will be as good as new.

I was worried about being able to get bulbs since most incandescents are outlawed, but there is an exception for oven bulbs and that happens to be what this uses. So $6 got me a two pack from Amazon.

The core of an alkaline battery function

Alkaline AAA batteries are compact power sources that play a crucial role in everyday electronics. From TV remotes to wireless keyboards, these small cells power countless devices. But behind their simplicity lies an intricate chemical process. Understanding how alkaline batteries such as voniko aa battery work offers insight into their efficiency, reliability, and why they remain a popular choice.

What Is Inside an Alkaline AAA Battery
Inside every alkaline AAA battery is a set of chemicals arranged in layers. The main components include a zinc anode, a manganese dioxide cathode, and an electrolyte that facilitates ion movement. These elements are sealed within a steel casing that protects the internal reactions and prevents leaks.

The Electrochemical Reaction
The core of an alkaline battery's function is an electrochemical reaction. When the battery is inserted into a device and a circuit is completed, a controlled chemical reaction begins. The zinc at the anode reacts with the alkaline electrolyte, typically potassium hydroxide. This releases electrons, which then travel through the device, providing electrical energy.

Meanwhile, the manganese dioxide at the cathode accepts these electrons. The flow of electrons from the anode to the cathode generates the current needed to power electronic devices. This reaction continues until the reactants are depleted, which marks the end of the battery's usable life.

Why Alkaline?
Alkaline batteries use an alkaline electrolyte instead of an acidic one, which gives them several advantages. They have a higher energy density, meaning they can store more energy relative to their size. They also have a longer shelf life and perform better under varying temperatures compared to older zinc-carbon batteries.

Voltage and Capacity
A typical alkaline AAA battery produces a voltage of about 1.5 volts. Capacity, measured in milliampere-hours, depends on the brand and quality but generally ranges between 850 and 1200 mAh. This makes them ideal for low-to-moderate drain devices that require consistent power over time.

Environmental Considerations
Modern alkaline batteries are much safer than earlier versions. Most no longer contain mercury, making them less hazardous to dispose of. However, they still should not be thrown into regular trash, as they can leak chemicals if damaged. Many communities offer battery recycling programs to safely collect and process used cells.

Conclusion
The science behind alkaline AAA batteries is a balance of chemistry and engineering. Their ability to convert chemical energy into electrical energy efficiently and safely makes them essential for portable power. As technology evolves, improvements in materials and construction continue to enhance battery life, safety, and performance.


AA Batteries

Our AA batteries are made to provide up to 15 hours of continuous use. Since these batteries tend to be used in things like remotes or speakers that need longer working time. Vonikoshop let that happen by building powerful Alkaline double A batteries

What's is it with WhatsApp ?
I recently agreed to take part in a local representative group.
We were informed of the meeting by email.
We had just started our face to face meeting and someone said.
"Let's set up a WhatsApp group ".
It seems to me everyone and their granny is in a bloody WhatsApp group.
WHY ?
I feel as if I am being dragged screaming and kicking into yet another....

Now I read that WhatsApp will start delivering adverts at the end of the month.

Please tell me there are some of you out there who are not on a WhatsApp group.

I am drowning here !
