>> what's the claim, really? That western powers intentionally struck a school and killed these kids

Israel or US or both struck a school and killed these kids. Nobody knows whether it was intentional or not. And this is not the first time Israel bombed schools or hospitals.

Mental gymnastics done to skew facts is amazing.

tradertefon South Korea's President says US investment demands would spark financial crisis

Not sure what you are referring to in your last sentence.

Democrats enabled genocide just like Republicans are doing the same now. I don't like or endorse current government and Trump but saying that we should support democrats because they are "decent" and talk in a politically correct way is wrong as well.

whataboutism..

tradertefon South Korea's President says US investment demands would spark financial crisis

Forced resettlement => Ethnic cleansing

tradertefon South Korea's President says US investment demands would spark financial crisis

On Israel/Palestine issue, it was not a "tiny misstep". I will remember Joe Biden as "Genocide Joe" for the rest of my life. My perception (naively) of both parties has changed, but I don't trust Democrats anymore because of this issue. They are all the same..

That's the "final theory" given in the article..

tradertefon Giving Up a $250k Salary to Retire Early Is Hard

For REIT example (O), the yield is 5.61% and you need to pay tax on top of that. Assuming 25% tax, you will net 4.2%. Current inflation is 2.9% [0], so assuming principal conservation, you can only spend 1.4%. Much worse than 3.5/4% on the market.. Am I missing something?

tradertefon FCC opens entire 6 GHz band to low power device operations

6GHz has 3 modes of operation:

1) VLP: can now happen in 1200 MHz (5925 MHz to 7125 MHz); previously it was only 850 MHz. Very Low Power: 25 mW (14 dBm) power.. with -5 dBm/MHz PSD, indoor and outdoor usage. Think of short range use-cases like smartphone to laptop or smartphone to earbuds/ARVR.

2) LPI: already allowed in full 1200 MHz Low Power Indoor: 1W (30 dBm) power with 5 dBm/MHz PSD (clients are 6 dB lower); only indoor usage. Think of your home router.

3) SP: allowed in 850 MHz; no plan to expand AFAIK Standard Power: 4W (36 dBm) power with 23 dBm/MHz PSD (clients are 6 dB lower); indoor or outdoor usage. Requires Aautomated Frequency Coordination; send your location to cloud, cloud tell you which channels area available. Think of enterprise or high power routers; outdoor point to point links (WISP)

So, this new regulation is only for VLP and will result in more (especially 320 MHz) channels. No change to the most common usage of Wi-Fi (Router to Laptop/PC).

It increases the number of "VLP" channels.

So, this new regulation is only for VLP and will result in more (especially 320 MHz) channels. No change to the most common usage of Wi-Fi (Router to Laptop/PC).

This will allow better channel availability (low latency, higher throughput) for mobile applications in very dense areas..
