Trying to figure out the damage last nights lightning strike at 1060NP caused yesterday evening. @LianderNL was very quick to respond and fix L3 from our 3-phase connection: the main fuse before the meter tripped.

Damage so far: 1 @amazonDE USB-charger, 1 240V/USB outlet, 1/...
the @somfy motor of our motorised awning; the Somfy motor of one of our roller shutters; the electronics of one of our Westinghouse ceiling fan/lamp combinations @w__home, and still investigating.

The 3000VA @APCbySchneider UPS, protecting all computing equipment, survived. 2/2
Dang now that there is enough sun-light to measure: the @victron_energy Quattro 24V 8000V 200A @CityzenEU smart-grid converter broke, as well as the @zeversolar 3680 (which shows error code 38).
And one of the other @somfy motors now has almost ceased to function.
Some of the light-bulbs also did not survive. And a few of the network devices are having trouble too. So it seems not all computing equipment survived. More details later.
We are sort of lucky:

The @Zeversolar 3860 problem was cabling; one of the connectors had come loose, dropped to the ground, got moist and had a bit of DC current earth leaking.

The safety mechanism in the converter found this, hence Error Code 38: zeversolar.com/service/faq/ 1/2
This must have happened between sunset and sunrise, where also the lightning strike happened.

All connectors have been re-fastened on 60 cm height. If this ever happens again, I know what to check first.

2/2
an @Apple iPad USB 2amp charger also got busted, and either the network ports of a ChromeCast power adapter, AppleTV and @HumaxNL PVR or an ethernet switch: still investigating, but have to defer that when back from a road trip.
an @Apple Apple TV (4th Generation) - 64 GB: it cannot connect to networks any more; an 8 port ethernet switch the Apple TV was connected to.
New fiber provides galvanic isolation between the parts that are behind the master UPS and the ones I cannot get behind it.
Should help contain damage during a future lightning strike.

@helgavanleur @RHDijkgraaf We zien dat bijvoorbeeld bij de begeleiding van mijn verstandelijk beperkte broer: wij zien we hem ongeveer 2 keer per week, de zorginstantie veel vaker, maar heeft een sterk wisselende ambulante groep met slechte overdracht.
Wij zagen wat dingen, mensen van buiten ons veel meer.
@helgavanleur @RHDijkgraaf Inmiddels komen een aantal dingen langzaam weer op de rit. De belangrijkste aspecten tot nu toe lijken dit te zijn, geconcentreerd rond voeding: zorg voor structuur zodat voeding niet in een paar dagen bijna op is en daarna alleen nog droog brood; verminder suikers/vetten sterk.
@helgavanleur @RHDijkgraaf Stress is nu enorm afgenomen. Verwardheid nog niet, en ook geheugen is nog niet OK, dus daar gaan we binnenkort - want wachtlijsten in de GGZ - een traject mee in.
De structuur-truc was een combinatie van vaste boodschappenlijsten (wekelijks/maandelijks/kwartaallijks), en alleen

Beste @Waternet, waarom kan ik niet meer het hele opnamenummer in 1 keer plakken? Cijfertje voor cijfertje uit de gescande brief knippen plakken is nogal veel werk. Vroeger ging dit wel goed.
plakken werkt niet met het toetsenbord: alleen maar met de muis, dus onhandig voor mensen met een beperking. Als je in het veld staat werken alleen de numerieke toetsen en pijltjes van je toetsenbord, en de delete knop haalt het verkeerde karakter weg. Wie verzint die ongein?
Bij postcode werkt plakken weer wel (en de rest van het toetsenbord ook helemaal), maar bij meterstand weer niet. Hoe maak je je site onhandig voor mensen met een beperking les 1: het is helemaal gelukt. Jammer!

Trying to figure out Brennan here. Looking at things from a new angle. (Big Hero 6 style)

Was Joshua Schulte working with the Russian Conspirators to “hack the DNC” while on the clock for CIA? (appears so)

Was the FBI counterintel investigation into that?
If you check my pinned tweet, Joshua Schultes activities, as listed in the indictments, track along with the Russian “hacks”. While on the CIA clock. FBI was aware that the Russians were hacking. If (big leap) Schulte was working with them, did FBI know it? When did they find out
Everyone involved, FBI, Good Harbor, Crowdstrike, etc allowed the Russians to stay active until Oct 2016.

That’s a long time to watch hackers as they browse a Presidential campaign network.

Schulte was free to leave CIA and get a new job.

Trying to figure out the energy here and it's like when they locked us all in the high school after prom and gave us activities until 6am so we wouldn't drink and drive #xoxofest
That sounds bad but I liked it way more than prom itself
Good to know this was a common after-prom experience because I honestly wasn't sure

The Lawfare blog has come out in defense of the FISA warrants. What to Make of the Carter Page FISA Applications lawfareblog.com/what-make-cart… It’s pretty weak tea.
It begins by reviewing the history leading up to the release of the applications, verifications and warrants, including the Nunes and Dem memos. It goes without saying that they defend the Democrat version since they are leftists themselves.
But then he begins his argument by discussing the footnote revealing Steele’s bias.

trying to figure out what year exactly it was the US championed human rights but no one can ever tell me
the entire moral justification of US imperialism–which we'll define as 600-1000 military bases & the default belief the US has the legal/moral right to bomb where ever they want whenever they want––is based on this notion of "human rights" that has no fixed application or meaning
in a secular age, human rights replaced divine right or overt (and I stress overt) white supremacy as the moral basis for meddling all over the world and this strikes me as exceedingly convenient and dubious and the media almost never interrogates this moral framework.

Very relevant. Thanks for sharing. If I end up going (trying to figure out my schedule), I'll let you know what I learned.
Example: google figuring out your genome
When google did this, they solved a very specific problem that made a lot of, potentially, sub optimal framing decisions

1) Bottle empty. Feeling frisky. That means rant time. Hey, @ThomasWictor @drawandstrike @Imperator_Rex3, RANT TIME!!!

The topic of tonight's rant?

THE DEEP STAAAAATE!

Or lack thereof.
2) One of my pet peeves? The idea of this all-knowing, all-seeing, all-controlling 'deep state'. Some monolithic organization of ne'er-do-wells that apparently are so good at what they do they are unbeatable.
3) If that's the case, then what the FUCK do you call the last 2 years?!
