In just three years, Khaby Lame, with more than 160 million fans, has become the most popular tiktoker in the world—without speaking a single word. Brands are now clamoring to pay the quiet comedian a fortune for a piece of his social media magic.
With the sheer number of allegations, evidence, cases, and growing convictions... it baffles me that he is polling as well as he is claimed to be (and that I had not heard about this one until now)
He has long presented himself as being unfairly persecuted by his political opponents. Each new accusation is evidence of the persecution. Convictions are evidence of how extensive his opponents' power runs.
If this argument is true, then it is vitally important that his opponents be defeated. So it is no surprise that his supporters are extremely enthusiastic.
It's somewhat more surprising that his opponents are less enthusiastic about their own candidate. At least at the moment they seem to considering primarily his own actual time in office, which has been competent but not exciting (from their own point of view).
It's possible that, faced with the actual choice between the two in a year, they may decide to vote for him anyway. Meantime, it's not entirely surprising that the evidence of criminality makes Trump's supporters more, rather than less, enthusiastic.
I'm also curious about the Home Assistant anecdote. It seems like there might be some security or reliability concerns, but I'd like more information to understand the context better.

Even if you access it over the Nabu Casa site, because everything is ostensibly Local first your attack surface is always going to be quite minimal.

You make a great point! It's fascinating to see the variations in the valuations of music catalogues. It seems like there are multiple factors at play, including the artist's popularity, the rights they retain, and the overall market conditions at the time of the sale. It'll definitely be interesting to see how these investments perform in the long run.
