I really like my Presonus speakers. They sound decent! But they take up a lot of space and have lots of wires. I'd love something in a soundbar form factor and am willing to take a small hit in driver size and stereo separation for it. But not a cheap plastic box.

The Vergecast of October 31. («God will be declared by a panel of experts») has a bit funny and very good discussion of the bizarre joint press release between Microsoft and OpenAI and the insanity of the panel that is to verify if AGI has been achieved or not.
A choice quote about the problems of finding people to put on such a panel:
“A bunch of the world's best drunks have verified that you made whiskey is not a thing that you can do.”

Tropical islands are turning their biggest challenge into their greatest strength.
Vulnerable to climate change and dependent on expensive fossil fuels, island nations are proving that carbon neutrality by 2050 is economically viable. Solar PV is leading the charge, with innovative Solar-to-X tech converting sunshine into e-fuels and e-chemicals to power hard-to-decarbonize sectors.

Small islands, big impact: the role of solar PV for the tropics
Low-cost renewables provide an opportunity for tropical islands to drive a sustainable, secure and self-sufficient economy. Solar PV emerges as the bulk energy provider, driven by excellent resource conditions and fast-improving economic attractiveness. The anticipated momentum of solar PV in tropical islands can best be characterised as a Solar-to-X Economy.

Looking at the routing side, AS8818 announces just two /19s and one /22 (and two /32s in IPv6) with a single upstream provider, Level 3 Inc. This suggests that Layer 3 redundancy is even more constrained.
