"The scale of each harmful algal bloom event seems to be increasing...We're basically seeing that the warming climate is changing the frequency and length and locations and toxicity of harmful algal blooms...If there isn't something done to mitigate, to reduce climate emissions, warming will continue and these kinds of events will be more and more likely."

Widespread marine species mortalities a ‘human-mediated disaster’

"Effects of marine heatwave driving ‘foreseeable’ SA algal bloom could rival black summer fires, scientists warn."

Accidentally bought CCA Ethernet cable on Amazon (copper-clad aluminum). Total junk. Copper burns off w/ a lighter, revealing flimsy brittle aluminum, degrades signal, and a PoE fire risk. Only upside is price. Got to rip out 100ft + clips. Don’t make my mistake.
