This piece got set to the side for a month or two. I wasn’t happy with it and not sure what to do about it. For whatever reason I decided to pick it up again last week and work on it again. And because it was in a sunbeam, I decided to document.

Also consider changing from the default setting of a numeric-only short passcode to an alphanumeric one that is longer. Shorter numeric-only codes can take mere seconds to crack with brute force methods.

⚠️UPDATE⚠️
Israeli airports may be closed due to its aggression against Iran, but there are other options. The bridge crossing into Jordan remains open and internationals can and have been deported via this route in the past.

Anybody who has watched ANDOR and seen stormtroopers patrolling cities and inspecting people’s papers will recognize this scene from downtown LA. If you think the stormtroopers are, well, stormtroopers, what do you think of Marines doing this?
When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean…
Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

Now with Israel's attack on Iran, the airports are shut down, and our three remaining 'Madleen' team members, Pascal Maurieras, Yanis Mhamdi, and Marco van Rennes may face an extra month, illegally detained in Israeli prison.

Is Israel’s interception of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla legal?
Israel says it enforced a lawful blockade in the international waters where it seized a flotilla carrying aid and activists bound for Gaza. But the seizure likely violates international laws.
