Yet, we need to continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with the women and people demanding the basic rights we take for granted and enjoy every single day.
We must try and save the lives of those sentenced to death by raising the political cost of their executions and making sure that those languishing in prisons are released.
I’m calling on the international community and media to keep shining a spotlight on my country to demand that the regime stops using torture immediately.
Let’s hope MLS solves some of this, but there is a certain amount of necessary complexity with syncing encryption keys for groups as people come and go.
I’m very annoyed by issues decrypting messages in private conversations. Nothing is changing, so it should just work after the first message, but no. Random messages can’t be decrypted unless I refresh. Very frustrating.
When you realize that you should not have smoked before the presentation /s
It is honestly tragic and infuriating to watch elected leaders rot while refusing to stop governing.
On Tuesday afternoon, researchers’ fears were confirmed. The pod of almost 100 long-finned pilot whales rushed to the shore, stranding themselves on Cheynes Beach near Albany, in southern Western Australia.
By Wednesday, 52 of the whales had died, the authorities said. A team of local volunteer and conservation officials managed to move the remaining 45 back into the water and attempted to herd them back out to sea, using boats and kayaks to guide them. However, that afternoon, the whales re-stranded themselves further along the beach, the authorities said. The Australia Broadcasting Corporation reported that the whales had again formed a huddle before drifting back to shore.
Lord of War is a fantastic Nicolas Cage movie!
Won’t work. In Texas their God is white.
Wildfires driven by an extreme heatwave have encircled Palermo after temperatures in the Sicilian city climbed to 47C (117F) on Monday.
But while the heat stifles the south, northern regions continued to bear the brunt of bad weather caused by the arrival of cooler air from northern Europe, with more torrential rain and gales forecast in Lombardy, Trentino Alto Adige, Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia.
Giuseppe Sala, the mayor of Milan, said residents endured a sleepless night as winds exceeded 63 mph (100 km/h).
Sala said: “What we are seeing is not normal. We can no longer deny that climate change is changing our lives. We can no longer turn a blind eye, and above all, we can’t not do anything.”
The civil protection minister, Nello Musumeci, said: “Climate change is not just a contingency and Italy must realise that it now has a tropical climate. On one hand, we are paying the price of climate change, for which we should have paid more attention several years ago, and, on the other, of infrastructure that does not seem to be totally adequate for the new context.
The COP28 will certainly be interesting.
Myst, Superhot VR, Beatsabre
I tend to do everything locally on bare metal. I never liked putting stuff in containers or running a vm.
VS Code is a great editor, though. It actually feels a bit like Emacs.
This rhymes with Lusitania
Next year is going to be fun…
This seems like a major blunder. The US needs Turkiye on its side to expand NATO, besides the whole risk of “in for a penny, in for a pound.” Obama lost a lot of face with his red line, but at least he avoided getting the US entrenched in another Middle East conflict, which they’ll just make worse by their mere presence.
Perhaps you didn’t understand my comment or the article. The 60C number is, in fact, a meaningless, joke of a number, because they’re talking about how hot the ground is. Duh, the ground gets really hot. Be careful walking your dogs, though. Their paws can get severely burned quite quickly.
The heatwave has not hit its peak yet in Spain. That’ll be Monday through Wednesday next week. Highs will be around 43C (109F). 40C isn’t a big deal to me, but anything higher gets savage fast. The forecasts for Sardinia and Sicily actually aren’t as bad as the article predicts (not even hitting 38C/100F), but wunderground could just be inaccurate.
The bottom line for reasonable people is: if you’re forecast to get temps above 40C, take it seriously.
Or, like, don’t. I don’t know you, and I won’t be affected by your death, so get fucked or don’t. That’s on you. You’re just some human. You’re the lowest form of life on this planet in my eyes, and there are far too many humans already.
The temperature of the ground in some areas of Spain has hit more than 60C [140F] during the deadly heatwave sweeping Europe, satellite recordings have shown.
Temperature records have been broken on most of the continent, including France, Switzerland, Germany and Italy, where highs of 40C [104F] were recorded again on Wednesday.
Sicily and Sardinia were forecast to be as high as 48C [118.4F].
These temperatures are no joke. For reference, it was about 48C (119F) in west Texas where the 2 Floridians died a couple weeks back.
Anyone experiencing this kind of heat needs to make it their #1 priority. Stay cool. Stay hydrated. Pay attention to yourself and your loved ones for signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke.
I’ve been using Debian for years without crashes, so I don’t think it’s a software issue. It sounds like a hardware issue to me; it could be your motherboard or power supply.
I mainly use ergonomics. I got a chair that works for me, I switched to a Kinesis Freestyle Pro, I switched to a trackball mouse, I raised my monitors up, and if I’m going to be doing a bunch of typing, I throw on wrist braces with aluminum stays.
The split keyboard and better posture were the biggest wins for me. The whole mechanical keyboard fad has been terrible for people’s wrists.
Other things I’ve heard worked for some people that are worth trying: warm gloves or compression gloves. Apparently some people get pain in their wrists from typing in cold environments (like an office). Taking breaks, doing wrist stretches, and having hobbies that use your hands differently can certainly help.
Thank you! Here’s the actual PDF doc of their clarifications and here’s the original DSA
The specific language for number of users is:
average monthly active recipients of their service in the Union, calculated as an average over the period of the past six months
And the definition of active recipient:
(p) ‘active recipient of an online platform’ means a recipient of the service that has engaged with an online platform by either requesting the online platform to host information or being exposed to information hosted by the online platform and disseminated through its online interface;
So you just need 45 million EU citizens looking at a platform to qualify as a VLOP. Amazon probably qualifies, but it would be easy for them to prove they were unfairly discriminated against as well.
Did the EU even define the term “Very Large Online Platforms”? I think this is the bill, but it doesn’t ever define the term. Amazon may be right, purely because the legislators are incompetent idiots.
Yeah, this is one of those constant annoyances that you kinda just live with. It doesn’t matter that much, because compound words were at some point not one word, and there may be separate words that you use today that will join together during your career. Electronic mail became e-mail became email. As long as the casing doesn’t hide the meaning, you’re doing it right. Also be consistent. Don’t recreate such monstrosities as XMLHttpRequest.
