My apologies, I captured the logs through EPS32 :) since it's not Microchip, the UART protocol is probably a custom FitShow one. I've tried to use FTMS from the Kinomap app, but it seems the FitShow module I have doesn't support it. I'm yet to look into the BLE GATT part to confirm. Will keep digging. Thanks for the reply!

@blutack, I can confirm this - I recently purchased a treadmill homeTro 3.0HP and it has a third-party Bluetooth Module UART module from https://www.fitshow.com/. It seems fitshow developed this module and white-label apps to add smart features to the treadmill and other fitness devices. I cannot confirm if it's microchip UART to BLE because since I would have to desolder it, I successfully connected UART at 4800 baud: https://pastebin.com/NCiQwr8T

If anyone knows how to decode FitShow UART protocol or has some ideas, please share your thoughts :)

And now, people go back to the office and I hear other people in the background instead of babies because companies have mandatory office days when they have all employees there at the same time. I can tell you, it's easier to phase out baby than other people in the background :)

Did they make only $8.5mil? I doubt. Why not fine them for their profit? At this point, fines like this are treated as expenses.

You're right. I do agree that a lot of Russian immigrants I met are against Putin. Just to give context - I'm a Ukrainian. However, do expect that a lot of people who are immigrating or planning to immigrate now would be economical immigrants due to degrading standards of living in Russia. So, they may actually support Putin but they're looking for better life. For instance, the IT company I worked for had a client IT company from Russia and they decided not to do business with us after 2014 (annexetion of Ukrainian Crimea) because they supported Putin. The company was small-to-medium but those were IT people mostly. Also, based on the most recent polls, 70-80% of Russians support the aggression.

I think the solution should be on a government level: a government who doesn't support Russian aggression (and that's is the whole world accept ~10 countries), I'd introduce some sort of a visa/work permit/citizenship requirement for Russians to state if they support Putin or not. I'd also make a video recording of their answers similarly to the citizenship oath in many countries in case they "change their minds" later on. If they don't have a process like that or a similar process, they may introduce people who are pro-war and pro-Russian into their societies. I consider it extremely dangerous for countries that are neighbouring with Russia because Putin's propaganda used "Russians oppression" or "Russians mostly live there" as an excuse for aggression in Pridnistrovia, Goergia and Ukraine. This is especially true for Baltic states were standards of living are higher and they are potential destinations of these new waves of immigrations.

I'm not sure if a business owner can do something like that because it might be considered as a discrimination of political views or something similar. I assume no one was asked during a job interview if they supported Hitler, right ?:)

If you want to know if a Russian person supports the war, among questions like "do you support war in Ukraine/Putin?" you can ask if they supported of annexation of Ukrainian Crimea in 2014. Most Russian immigrants I met said "of course no, it's a crime and a violation of the internal laws". But some avoided answer and said something like "well it's a complex question, Crimea is mostly Russian and they were treated badly", "or Crimeans were suffering", "Crimea was never a Ukrainian territory" or something along those lines - that's a red flag. Or "it's a politics and I'm trying to stay out of politics" is also a red flag. No one will tell you directly that they support the aggression in 2014 after what happened in Feb 24th.

I do hope that "good" Russians will get a better life and "bad" Russians will stay in Russia and enjoy the products of their believes.

reminds my of 2008 (Gerogian invasion) or 2014 (Ukrainian invasion) - If you don't deal with issue, it's becoming a bigger issue. Sonner or later NATO will have to deal with Russia, the question is when.
