Which Locally Hosted Wireless Security Cameras Are Best?
Which Locally Hosted Wireless Security Cameras Are Best? A privacy‑minded Slashdot reader, wary of Nest, Ring, and other cloud‑tethered brands cozy with law enforcement, is looking for budget‑friendly Wi‑Fi IP cameras that live entirely on a home LAN and feed ZoneMinder—ideally RTSP/ONVIF gear with local recording and none of the cloud‑based slop.
Lawmaker calls for investigation after fraud allegations in Maine’s Medicaid program
Lawmaker calls for investigation after fraud allegations in Maine’s Medicaid program, spurred by a Kenyan media interview in which Abdullahi Ali said he contributes money to Somalia, including to paramilitary forces. The eyebrow-raising admission has the lawmaker pressing for answers on whether any resources tied to Maine’s Medicaid orbit were misused—because nothing says healthcare oversight like a sudden cameo from foreign paramilitaries.
Germantown double shooting leaves two dead, including a minor
Germantown double shooting leaves two dead, including a minor: Philadelphia police say officers responded just before 5:15 p.m. to the 500 block of West Queen Lane, where they found an adult male and a minor; both died, according to authorities.
Democrats Flip Miami Mayoral Seat
Democrats Flip Miami Mayoral Seat as Eileen Higgins defeats Trump-backed Emilio González in Tuesday night’s runoff for Miami mayor—an allegedly non-partisan contest that somehow screamed party labels in surround sound. Decision Desk HQ called it, making Higgins the first Democrat to lead Miami since 1997. Looks like even Miami can change the channel from Mar-a-Lago programming.
Plane makes emergency landing atop Toyota on Florida freeway after engine trouble
Plane makes emergency landing atop Toyota on Florida freeway after engine trouble: A Beechcraft 55 reported engine trouble and tried to set down on I-95 in Merritt Island around 5:45 p.m. Monday, briefly landing on top of a 2023 Toyota Camry before skidding onto the roadway, authorities said. The 27-year-old pilot from Orlando and his 27-year-old passenger from Temple Terrace were uninjured; the 57-year-old Camry driver was hospitalized with minor injuries. Video shows the plane settling onto the moving car—an unplanned, decidedly low-budget preview of the “flying car” future—before sliding off.
Democrats express frustration after Hegseth’s boat strike briefing
Democrats express frustration after Hegseth’s boat strike briefing as they emerged from a classified, closed-door session on the Trump administration’s alleged strikes on drug-running boats in the Caribbean—and other regional actions—saying they got more fog than facts. One Democrat said they asked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to let every member of Congress see the unedited operation videos, a transparency request the briefing did little to satisfy.
North London psychotherapist jailed for sexually assaulting patients during therapy sessions
North London psychotherapist jailed for sexually assaulting patients during therapy sessions, after exploiting his role to grope victims and press himself against them under the guise of medical treatment—a calculated abuse of power and a profound betrayal of trust.

Sydney Sweeney’s “Christy” is now available to stream at home, with Black Bear announcing Tuesday that the film—starring and produced by Sweeney as Christy Salters—has hit digital video-on-demand.
Democrats win Miami mayoral race, their first time holding the office in nearly 30 years
Democrats win Miami mayoral race, their first time holding the office in nearly 30 years: Eileen Higgins flipped City Hall, defeating Republican Emilio Gonzalez—a former Miami city manager who also aided Trump’s Homeland Security transition—according to Decision Desk HQ. She’s the first Democrat to run Miami since 1997, which in local political time is basically ancient history. The upset adds another tick to Democrats’ momentum heading into next year’s midterms, and suggests even Miami occasionally switches out the usual flavor.
