I wonder how bad it is to do Paris to Hamburg by train. Experience welcome.

Tenemos alternativa, y más que buena, para poder leer nuestros libros en casi todos los formatos. Después de unos meses de mucho trabajo, el desarrollador Jonathan Chacón ha podido sacar a la luz, en el último día del año 2025 esta aplicación que seguro va a llenarnos de satisfacción a muchas personas ciegas, y algunas con otros problemas para la lectura.

"Woman falls from 3rd-floor balcony after being pushed: Montreal police"
Wow that's.. I mean I guess the headline technically isn't the passive voice since there's someone taking an action but I think they might have written it with the wrong actor verbing.

A woman is in critical condition after being allegedly pushed from a balcony and falling three storeys in Montreal’s Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough.Daniel J. Rowe (CTVNews)
still. she didn't push herself. "Man allegedly pushes woman to her fall from 3rd story balcony" doesn't really ring the same bullshit...
This is journalist malpractice IMHO.
There have been thousands of potholes, PRE-freezing rain this week... what about THOSE POTHOLES?!?

... does the cost of adding it reduce the number of buyers and therefore their profit?
Of course!
"Lanier [Black & Decker's national coordinating counsel] expressed concern that if any manufacture licensed the safety feature, all others would be forced to do likewise, or risk litigation following injuries with their products."
Gah!
When all your competitors are forced to pay the same costs (such as a raise in the minimum wage) then your customers will always be the ones paying for the change.
It seems like business owners do not understand competitive markets.
In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

Democrat Positions in 2024 vs What MAGA Pretended They Were:
ON ABORTION: Let's weigh the possible rights of the unborn fetus against the actual rights of the adult woman whose body it's in and allow the mother the right to make the medical choice whenever possible.
WHAT THEY PRETENDED: Let's kill babies after they're born.
ON IMMIGRANTS: Let's give immigrants a safe and legal path to full American citizenship in this country, and while that's happening, remember that they are still human beings and are granted rights under our Constitution.
WHAT THEY PRETENDED: Let's allow all the fentanyl dealers unfettered access across our border so they can rape people, because we hate America.
ON TRANS PEOPLE: Let's let trans people exist, and provide access to safe and legal means of providing them life saving medical care.
WHAT THEY PRETENDED: Let's kidnap eight year olds in the middle of the school day and perform forced gender transition surgeries on them for fun.
We're finally addressing a behavior that has been driving some of us crazy with how floating windows transition from/to the overview on GNOME Shell

Mój feed na ćwierkaczu od dwóch dni zawalają statystyki na temat pitbullów.
Dlaczego?
Bo jedną osobę (chyba kobietę, ale nie jestem pewny) zajmującą się statystyką pogryzł pitbull i teraz i ona (on?) i wszyscy inni wrzucają obrazki takie, jak ten..
.. i nawołując do sterylizacji, zakazu posiadania oraz hodowli itd.
Re: #lastBoost. I was in San Diego at the beginning of december, and one of my Uber drivers (if you can still call them that) had a Tesla.
He looked in the stats, and since the last firmware update, ~90% of the miles driven were full FSD.
During our trip, he only took control once, when he didn't like the route the FSD was taking. However, it turned out that the route he wanted was actually blocked, so the FSD was right all along.

Два різних путіна звертались до росіян в цю новорічну ніч — InformNapalm звертає увагу на відмінності між версіями плешивих диктаторів, яких «крутили» по рашаТБ.
У першій версії російський президент був одягнений у чорну краватку. Однак уже за лічені хвилини це відео зникло з ресурсу, замість нього з'явився інший запис – цього разу з путіним у червоній краватці.
Через подібні факапи в минулих роках, аналітики припускають, що звернення «путіна» штампують за допомогою ШІ.

Bought Qi chargers 3 months ago. Clearly stored them somewhere "safe" and "memorable".
On second thought, they probably fled the apartment, in a coordinated operation with all my spare HDMI cables 🤔

@bagder Random question, based on your recent boost (TIL! TY!).
Why does:
curl -w "%{json}" example.com
print all the JSON-ified variables on one line, but:
curl -w "%{header_json}" example.com
print the JSON-ified response headers on separate lines?
With one line, it's a lot easier to parse via jq.
Thanks!!

Little Johnny had just failed his law exam, but instead of sulking, he marched straight to his professor’s office with a plan.
Johnny: “Sir, is it true you know everything about law?”
Professor: “Naturally. I’ve been teaching it for over 30 years.”
Johnny: “Perfect. Let’s make a deal. If you can answer my question, I’ll accept my failing grade. But if you can’t… you give me an ‘A.’”
The professor, amused and slightly arrogant, agreed.
Professor: “Go ahead. Ask.”
Johnny leaned forward with a grin.
Johnny: “What is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither legal nor logical?”
The professor froze. He thought. He scribbled notes. He paced the room. Hours ticked by, but he couldn’t crack it. Finally, red-faced and defeated, he gave Johnny an “A.”
The next day, still fuming and desperate for answers, the professor posed the riddle to his class.
Professor: “Who can tell me—what is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither legal nor logical?”
To his surprise, nearly every hand shot up.
He called on one student.
Student: “Sir, you’re 65 years old and married to a 28-year-old woman. That’s legal but not logical. Your wife is having an affair with a 23-year-old man. That’s logical but not legal. And finally… you just gave your wife’s boyfriend an ‘A’ after he failed his exam. That’s neither legal nor logical!”
The professor didn’t say a word.
He just fainted.

I haven't ever done a trip involving SNCF, but this should be bookable directly on bahn.com. I've had no problems with that, even with a Canadian credit card.
