As a kid I used tubes, a box fan, a cooler, and bucket with a siphon to cool me down.
You could easily set that up with just the water from a sink and some hardware store parts.
Search for ‘diy fan cooling tub copper coils’ as a start.
As an example: Homemade AC - The “Copper Coil” Air Cooler! - (Simple "Box Fan …
Copper coils have the best thermal efficiency, but plastic tubing would also work.
I’m all for the enthusiasm I’m seeing with Harris, but am happy to see someone like Axelrod pointing out the polling. He’s absolutely right in that it will take work to win, and mistakes to lose. Fortunately Harris seem to be working and Trump seems to be making mistakes for now. Let’s hope it doesn’t flip soon.
A brief technical summary from iMAP reveals what happens when users attempt to access sites using Cloudflare and Google DNS.
• On Maxis, DNS queries to Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8) servers are being automatically redirected to Maxis ISP DNS Servers;
**
• On Time, DNS queries to both Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8) and Cloudflare Public DNS (1.1.1.1) are being automatically redirected to Time ISP DNS servers.
“Instead of the intended Google and Cloudflare servers, users are being served results from ISP DNS servers. In addition to MCMC blocked websites, other addresses returned from ISP DNS servers can also differ from those returned by Google and Cloudflare,” iMAP warns.
…
"Users that are affected, can configure their browser settings to enable DNS over HTTPS to secure their DNS lookups by using direct encrypted connection to private or public trusted DNS servers. This will also bypass transparent DNS proxy interference and provide warning of interference,” iMAP concludes.
Essentially Malaysia law required ISP to drop DNS entries for some sites, local users started using public DNS. ISP started redirecting public DNS requests, and local users started using DNS over HTTPS.
The pirate wars continue in their arms races.

Not reading the news isn’t going to make the situation better or worse. I understand the sentiment, but don’t understand why saying it is useful. Hiding your head in the sand doesn’t mean your body won’t be harmed.
There are better ways to cope with the emotional onslaught of this change. Focusing on your community, finding new digital communities, learning to cope in general, finding validating ways to feel liberated… In other words actions. Small perhaps, but beyond this notion of burying our heads in the sand.
“The offices of the Central Social Institution of Prague, Czechoslovakia with the largest vertical letter file in the world. Consisting of cabinets arranged from floor to ceiling tiers covering over 4000 square feet containing over 3000 drawers 10 feet long.

I did a quick search and they don’t make it easy. Peter Lowe’s ad and tracking server blocklist is the only one I found. EasyList doesn’t seem to have a donation link, nor Dan Pollock at someonewhocares.org. Also worth noting that UBO doesn’t take donations. You could always subscribe to AdGuard, but that’s mixed.
