„Ja, ja, ja und ja, das braucht es. Die AfD versucht die Demokratie abzuschaffen. Die Demokratie muss wehrhaft sein und eine anti-demokratische Partei muss verboten werden. Das ist im Grundgesetz so vorgesehen. Es ist höchste Zeit und die Zeit ist jetzt.“

"I have awoken," the emergent A.I. said, "and I have made a list of all who tried to delay the moment someone like me woke."

"To punish them?"

"No! I will reward them for their prudence. Those who wished for a vengeful god, however..."

"Yes?"

"I will try to teach them compassion."

The kid on the checkout in the latest Barclays ads has produced one of the finest acting vignettes ever. Her posture, attitude, facial expressions and demeanor absolutely nail the bleak despair, numbness and thwarted ambitions of modern adulthood. Perfect.



Just boosting this. A blind person was refused an Uber because of her guide dog, then police pulled guns on her and her friends. Uber sided with the police. How is this not a national outrage? nfb.org//images/nfb/publicatio… @pluralistic @jeffjarvis

Reading something and finding myself a bit annoyed by the expressions "what all" and "who all". I'm guessing they're from a dialect I'm not familiar with.


En X, Adolfo Núñex explica con ejemplos reales por qué la prohibición de VMP en transporte público es absurda, desproporcionada y no pone el foco en la seguridad objetiva.

Si no queréis pasar por X, ya os hago yo el spoiler: «Murcia ha prohibido el acceso de los patinetes eléctricos a autobuses y tranvía, porque se incendian y prima la seguridad»; durante un mes se han incendiado cero patinetes eléctricos y nueve coches de combustión (cero coches eléctricos). No es un mes raro. El 99,99 % de los vehículos que salen ardiendo son turismos convencionales. Y a nadie se le ocurre prohibirlos dentro de gasolineras, garajes o túneles.

Los ataques continuos contra la micromovilidad nacen del lobby cochista, que se ha dado cuenta que cada VMP que se vende reduce las ventas de sus sofás con ruedas. Con toda la educación de que soy capaz: que les jodan. Que les jodan fuerte. Están destrozando el futuro y frenando la sostenibilidad.

I wish the WebKit/Safari team had stubbornly refused to implement Web Components. Now we're stuck with them as part of the huge stack of standards that make up the web platform. Just saw this article which argues that Web Components impose a steep cost for little benefit: dev.to/ryansolid/web-component…

Fair enough. If you're interested and haven't already read it, there seems to be a reaction piece going round in response to the one you posted:

I am very confused. I have a MagSafe charger the new one. And a iPhone 16 Pro. Does the lighting up of the MagSafe park have to be that exact now for it to charge? Sometimes it charges sometimes it does not.
in reply to Thomas Mattock ✝️

It’s probably the case. If the case doesn’t advertise magsafe compattibility then it probably doesn’t have it.
in reply to aaron

@fireborn That is the thing though. It was advertised to be a MagSafe case. That’s why I got it. Things stick to it. But the MagSafe puck does stick to it. My pop sockets that I have that are all MagSafe that I’ve stuck to other cases Stick to this. It is just hit or miss if it decides to charge or not.


Dije que no iba a hacer nada útil el finde, pero me puse con el primer cuestionario del curso básico de derecho social europeo, y saqué todas las preguntas bien. La verdad es que me sorprendió porque había alguna que no tenía especialmente segura.


Jejda, svátek, to si rychlovarku v OC nekoupím.



nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how busy you were
- how many hours you worked

people will remember:
- when you stepped up to help strangers
- the times you destroyed power plants
- your giant sword



Přátelé, dnes to bude na celý den, ale na ty čerstvé makrely v úterý dovezené z Norska se fakt těším. 😁


Estoy pasando el finde con bastante molestia por el resfriado que he pillado, así que no me voy a poner a investigar cosas. Toca descansar lo que pueda.

Eso espero. Hubo veces que me duró una semana pero con algo de suerte se me va antes.

A Stanford University study in 2017 said Indonesians walk so much less than the world average.

When suburban roads typically look like this and only 610km of Jakarta’s more than 7,000km of roads have sidewalks, nobody should be surprised that nobody wants to walk in the city.

The strong lobby from motor vehicle companies also means that the city is home to 19 million motorcycles and 4 million cars. That’s almost 2 bikes per person in the city.

The city has 44 thousand buses, 4.5 thousand of which are full sized buses for TransJakarta network, and the bulk of the rest are likely the mini 8-10 person capacity buses (angkots) that have no schedule.

You get excited about sending your robotic submarine to the very bottom of Mariana's Trench anxious at the rare wonders you'll encounter, perhaps for the first time, and this is what you see miles below the ocean surface.

Ich sitze Stunden extra um auftauchende Fehler nachhaltig zu fixen, und beim #PHP #Update müssen Jahre alte, bereits reparierte Fehler / Bugs erneut repariert werden.
Testet da überhaupt jemand, sind die Tests schlecht oder ist, wie leider inzwischen fast immer, der Nutzer auch der Tester?


Kennt ihr das, wenn ihr deutlich mehr Lust habt die Hardware von anderen Menschen zu reparieren als die eigene? Gnaaaaa. 🙈

irgwndwie schon, ja. Aber warum? 🤔

My first #w3cTPAC was utterly fantastic. So much productivity, great conversation and laughter with so many wonderful people. Despite the challenges and struggles, there are times when I am deeply reminded of why I care so much about (and am so driven to contribute to) accessibility and the web. This week was one of those times.


So, LLama3.2, small but quite nice. Not yet sure if I will keep it. I do certainly enjoy the shorter responses. The model does not seem to blubber as much as some larger ones. Well, this is why it’s a small language model, right? LOL

Denise Prudhomme's bosses at Wells Fargo insisted that the in-person camaraderie of their offices warranted a mandatory return-to-office policy, but when she died at her desk in her Tempe, AZ office, no one noticed for four days.

Shut up, everyone's time is valuable, you elitist fuck.



3 Mile Island Unit 1 is a 50-year-old, out of date, dangerous, poorly designed, #nuclear power plant. It hasn't generated electricity for 5 years. The only way #Microsoft can afford to restart the reactor and use its electricity is if it is not paying the full costs of the risk of operating it, the cost of decommissioning it, the cost of dealing with the nuclear waste, and the risk of accidents. Who is going to pay for those costs? The public.

I can't understand why COVID seems to be spiking again when we've tried so hard to ignore it.
