The detentions were announced last week on Belarusian state TV, which claimed the men were part of a network of more than 50 people participating in the amateur radio hobby and have been accused of both “espionage” and “treason.” 404media.co/ham-radio-operator…

Episode 33 is out! 🫡 We are diving into the story of Lakshmi Sahgal and the Rani of the Jhansi Regiment, the first all-female combat unit in modern Indian history, formed in Singapore during World War II.

My aunt is an ancestry nut and did some difficult tracing due to name misspellings etc and now I know my oldest American roots on the paternal side was a farmer from Germany who joined the north in the civil war for Wisconsin and my maternal side was a farmer from Germany who was regarded as a pioneer and founded a city in Iowa

Dnešní #Downmall v Pankráckých Arkádách. Tady záběry ze slopu (freestyle), ale jely se i závody na čas. V úzkých uličkách mezi lidma, skoky a překážky po cestě, schody eskalátoru atd. Mazec. #bike

No longer getting any attention from his Greenland invasion fantasies, Trump now threatens 100 percent tariffs on all Canadian goods, because Mark Carney is negotiating a trade deal with China, like every other country on the planet does regularly, including the US.

I hope we will reach a point where the free world agrees, that a Trump tariff attack on one nation is a Trump tariff attack on all. Let him feel the consequences of his isolationist, America first agenda.

Love this track, just found it today. Have known Charley's music for a while, love her song Timebomb as well. youtu.be/XeJwH3iuN0U?si=45dBpv…

So apparently, there's an Internet outage, as a result of a power outage, in Greenland's capital, according to the @Netblocks people. First time I've seen Greenland have such a serious connectivity loss as to cause a report. Wonder just how that may have happened... or whose responsible. Some how, I doubt speculation need go far to imagine a potential cause and actor.

Okay, I'm having too much fun with this. Here's a stupid voice of my own creation (no idea why the pitch isn't right) reading a stupid story I wrote about a hyper-intelligent hedge trimmer. I'm sure @BorrisInABox and @cordova5029 will get a chuckle out of this.

Because much commentary is now being posted about the killing of a man in Minneapolis today by armed and masked federal agents, and because my previous thread about this today has grown long, I'm starting a separate thread about this now.

"There is some dispute now whether that was ICE or Customs and Border Patrol, wrestling an individual to the ground. He appeared to be motionless."

"Another day, another dead Minnesotan. Shot in the street while getting pinned down by masked federal thugs. And Donald Trump and Kristi Noem and Greg Bovino wasted no time putting out narratives that don’t at all square with the videos we’re seeing. But who you gonna believe? Them, or your lyin’ eyes?"

"RIP, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an intensive-care nurse by trade. Intensive-care nurses, not typically being he most war-like people. And who the goon squad is already slandering as a 'domestic terrorist.' Yeah, I’m for stopping domestic terrorism, too. Which is why someone should arrest Stephen Miller, who takes demented pleasure in waging war on his own people. While prompting his corrupt boss to do the same."

This is the second time that I have had OmniDescriber just totally lose my configuration. This time, I did literally nothing as far as I can tell. Windows Defender says my computer isn't infected with anything, but I'm still managing to encounter this issue. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, but I'm not sure I can rely on this program anymore. If anyone has any thoughts on this feel free to let me know. Thanks.

The fact it's no longer a local tool I can put my API keys in, it's a cloud solution where I have no idea what models they use internally and don't pay for my API usage, rather I pay for the pricing they decide to put up. I'm happy for the developer he got this, chance, and yes accessibility wise the web version is ok and does what it's supposed to, but well. I preferred the local native app, I had control, it couldn't go down, etc etc.
