Tengo una colección de monedas que herede de mi abuelo hace años y hoy me ha dado por mirarlas pero no sé si tienen algún valor. Entre los cientos de monedas hay un montón de 5 pesetas de finales de siglo XIX.
Agradezco un repost por si llegase a alguien que pueda ayudarme o decirme dónde pueden ayudarme.

Navádění do průhů vloni byla taky tragédie. Mám ale pocit, že už je to teď lepší. Každopádně Mapy.cz mají to navádění do průhů přehlednější a dřívější.

Danish citizens have launched an online petition, signed by 200,000 people, to purchase California. The petition notes that purchasing the Golden State would provide Danes with more sunshine, dominance in the tech industry, limitless avocado toast, and easy access to Disneyland. In return, California would get the rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.
Can they buy Wisconsin, please? I'd take that offer! 😆

American trans humans are under threat and like in 1930s Germany, they now have to GTFO of their home country.
We have decided we need to collect some information on the possible ways out.
So we made a wiki.
We are collecting information on possible exit routes into various countries. We focus on work, study and self employment visas as they are available at the moment.

Last night I finished a book I read for a reason that did not give me particularly high expectations: the author is a friend of my wife. I knew knew that she (the author) liked Babylon 5, so at least she had good taste.
To my surprise, I found myself really enjoying it. There are a couple of places where the writing is clunky but the characters were interesting and the story was engaging. I’m very much looking forward to the sequel (due this year).
If you enjoy low-stakes science fiction mysteries, I can thoroughly recommend Artificial Selection by Marianne Pickles. I will try to avoid spoilers, but if you hate people putting machine learning in totally inappropriate places, there is a two-page rant about 3/4 of the way through that you’ll enjoy (I did!).

So I finally turned a recent popular post here into a proper story.
Teen on Musk’s DOGE Team Graduated from ‘The Com’
Wired reported this week that a 19-year-old working for Elon Musk‘s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was given access to sensitive US government systems even though his past association with cybercrime communities should have precluded him from gaining the necessary security clearances to do so. As today’s story explores, the DOGE teen is a former denizen of ‘The Com,’ an archipelago of Discord and Telegram chat channels that function as a kind of distributed cybercriminal social network for facilitating instant collaboration.
