Una chitarra, la leggenda vuole comprata dai genitori dopo molti sacrifici, e tante cose da dire con una voce tutt’altro che anonima. A distanza di due anni Torres si tinge i capelli di biondo ma la ricetta non cambia, e anzi si conferma pienamente in questo Sprinter grazie anche al contributo di personaggi quali Rob Ellis alla produzione e una band di supporto formata da Ian Oliver (già con PJ Harvey) e Adrian Utley (Portishead)... artesuono.blogspot.com/2015/05…

Fourteen black paintings
In un'intervista del 2014 Robert Wyatt dice: “Sono abituato a domande come: ‘Pensi che l’arte politica abbia qualche effetto?’ La mia risposta è: se Stevie Wonder o chi per lui canta una canzone d’amore non la giudicherai mica dall’effetto, se insomma Stevie ce l’ha fatta o no a conquistare quella ragazza”

Which piefed instances defederate from the triad and similar instances?
like this
Yeah, I feel you. Except for special circumstances I actually prefer not to block people so they can't stealth-disagree with me without me getting a chance to yell back at them in turn.
Personally, my feeling is that it's also actually better not to shut out the triad instances. That's actually what they want. That is the entire reason and rationale why they block so aggressively, that they want to create a little bubble where no one calls them out on stuff. Shunning them just helps them do that. It's actually gotten worse in the time I've been around on Lemmy, I think, and I think it is from people turning them off at least as much as it is from their own blocks from their side. At present, they will sometimes come out and say stuff that is just total nonsense that is in line with the hivemind and then seem to be genuinely surprised if someone reacts negatively to it. And, they think that anything not in the triad is "the lib instances" and seem to think that it's a minority category or something, and again seem sincerely surprised sometimes if some indication emerges that it's not popular. I don't think that used to happen, I think they used to have an awareness of where the dividing-lines of different echo chambers were even if they and I would disagree about which one is "right."
None of this is to say you shouldn't block them or find a fully defederated place of course. Just giving my thoughts on it.
Yeah, I think there's a delicate balance here. Extremism thrives and tends to get even more extreme in bubbles. So in some ways it is vital that people actually try to make dialogue with them to potentially pull them back or at least keep them from drifting further.
But on the other hand, once the extremist bubble is big enough, if you just let them interact with the rest, they can spread a lot of toxocity and do a lot of damage which you also want to avoid.
So I don't think there's a clear-cut right choice here. If someone's up to it, actually making the effort to engage with them could be avery good strategy. But if someone's too stressed out by that, disengaging is clearly better.
But I think this is where the fediverse model has unique potential to do something good here. Some communities can block, some can engage. Some users can block, some can engange or even flop back and forth. It allows for more dynamic relationships and choices which I think os absolutely vital when there's no one right choice to deal with a situation/group/person.
once the extremist bubble is big enough, if you just let them interact with the rest, they can spread a lot of toxocity and do a lot of damage which you also want to avoid
Yeah, 100% agree. There is a benefit to free exchange of communication, it is one of the most effective ways of tearing down authoritarian structures, but absolutely at the same time once it's interfering with your own quiet enjoyment and ability to communicate internally it might be time to shut it out. I actually sometimes just don't participate at all in the political communities on lemmy.world for exactly that reason; it is often so toxic that it shuts down even the ability for people to have a normal conversation. Such a noisy tide of people will emerge to exercise Lemmy Reading Comprehension and give random hostility that you can't hear the other calm people. That's also the issue with Hexbear. That whole event where one of the more permissive instances thought about refederating with them, and they immediately brigaded that very discussion post to hurl abuse at everyone and so the conclusion was "lol never mind," is a good example.
There's also an important factor of whether the people in the community you're talking to are open to change. Lemmy.ml seems obviously to me to be mostly genuine people who are on some level interested in conversation and care about these topics, which is one reason I lean towards keeping engagement with them even if sometimes is a ridiculous conversation. But at the same time, I don't really fuck with Hexbear or with UniversalMonk much, because it just doesn't seem that there's much to be gained. If someone's whole overarching goal whenever they interact with outsiders is going to be "doing a bit," then what's the point. You're just the cat playing with their little toy-on-a-stick because they're waving it around, at that point.
It is one way when you post into a Lemmy community - the Lemmy instance will forward your post on to lemmy.ml even if you've blocked it.
But in a PieFed.social community it won't send to any instance you've blocked.

Breathing Through Our Butts Declared Safe After First Human Trial
Breathing Through Our Butts Declared Safe After First Human Trial
🌘
Subscribe to 404 Media to get The Abstract, our newsletter about the most exciting and mind-boggling science news and studies of the week.Hold onto your butts, because one day you might be breathing through them.
Scientists have tested out enteral ventilation—a possible method of administering oxygen with a liquid delivered through the rectum that is then absorbed into the intestines—in humans for the first time. The trial demonstrated that this method of ventilation is safe and “paves the way for future studies to see if this technique can help patients with respiratory failure,” according to a study published on Monday in the journal Med.
“Enteral ventilation is not meant to replace mechanical ventilators or ECMO, but rather to serve as a complementary oxygenation route,” said Takanori Takebe, an expert in organoid medicine with appointments at both Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and the University of Osaka, in an email to 404 Media. The technique proves a backdoor “to provide partial oxygen support while allowing the lungs to rest,” he added.
But while this method is safe for humans, it hasn’t been experimentally shown to work on patients experiencing respiratory distress yet. If future trials show that enteral ventilation is also effective, it could potentially help newborns and premature infants who are struggling to establish lung function after birth, aid patients with severe respiratory failure or Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), or be applied in other situations in which temporary oxygen supplementation is needed.
“In such cases, intestinal oxygen delivery could serve as a ‘bridge’ therapy until normal respiration or full ventilatory support can be established,” Takebe said.
A figure outlining the first enteral ventilation trial in humans. Image: Fujii, Tasuku et al.
The team previously published a study in 2021 that showed enteral ventilation was effective in ameliorating respiratory failure in rats, mice, and pigs. This initial trial in humans involved 27 healthy male volunteers, who received a liquid called perfluorodecalin through their rectums in an enema-like process.Since the trial was only intended to determine the safety of the procedure, rather than probe its efficacy in humans, the perfluorodecalin was not oxygenated and none of the volunteers were experiencing any respiratory distress during the course of the study.
“The results aligned closely with what we had anticipated from our preclinical data,” Takebe said. “We found that intrarectal administration of perfluorodecalin up to 1,000 mL was safe and well tolerated, with only mild and transient gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating.”
“The next phase will involve testing ‘oxygenated’ perfluorodecalin (O₂-PFD) in patients with hypoxemia to evaluate actual oxygen transfer efficacy,” he added. “We are currently planning a Phase II trial in collaboration with clinical partners in Japan and the U.S.”
Takebe and his colleagues were inspired to develop this roundabout route by aquatic species, such as loaches, which absorb oxygen through their intestines to survive in low-oxygen environments. While the idea of rectally administering perfluorodecalin is relatively new, the use of oxygenated liquid for ventilation dates back decades. It even shows up in James Cameron’s 1989 thriller The Abyss, which includes a real scene of a rat breathing in a tank of liquid perfluorocarbon.
The technique may prove to be an effective means to alleviate respiratory distress in humans, but it’s also inspired its fair share of jokes because, well, it is about butt breath, after all.
In 2024, for instance, Takebe’s team received the Ig Nobel Prize, a satirical award that honors “achievements so surprising that they make people laugh, then think,” according to its website. Fellow Ig Nobel awardees include a team that levitated a frog in midair and another that investigated why pregnant women aren’t constantly tipping over.
“Receiving the Ig Nobel Prize was both humorous and humbling,” Takebe said. “It was a reminder that truly unconventional ideas often begin at the boundary between curiosity and skepticism.”
“While the prize is lighthearted in tone, I do believe it serves a serious purpose, encouraging the public to stay curious and to appreciate how even seemingly odd scientific questions can lead to meaningful innovations,” he concluded. “What began as a playful concept is now moving closer to a viable medical technology.”

this post is probably too nieche but I feel like Lemmy is nerdy enough that enough people will get it lol
edinbruh doesn't like this.
I like many of your points, but your comment is facetious.
You said it yourself, "it's good for someone trying to bang out scripts"... and that's it, that's the main point, that's the purpose of python. I will argue over my dead body that python is a trillion times better than sh/bash/zsh/fish/bat/powershell/whatever for writing scripts in all aspects except availability and if that's a concern, the only options are the old Unix shell and bat (even with powershell you never know if you are stuck ps 5 or can use ps 7).
I have a python script running 24/7 on a raspberry that listens on some mqtt topics and reacts accordingly asynchronously. It uses like 15kiB (literally less than 4 pages) of ram mostly for the interpreter, and it's plenty responsive. It uses about two minutes of CPU time a day. I could have written it in rust or go, I know enough of both to do it, it would have been faster and more efficient, but it would have taken three times the time to write, and it would have been a bitch to modify, I could have done it in C and it would have been even worse. For that little extra efficiency it makes no sense.
You argue it has no place in mainstream software, but that's not really a matter of python, more a matter of bad software engineers. Ok, cool that you recognise the issue, but I'd rather you went after the million people shipping a full browser in every GUI application, than to the guys wasting 10 kiB of your ram to run python. And even in that case, it's not an issue of JavaScript, but an issue of bad practices.
P.S. "does one thing well" is a smokescreen to hide doing less stuff, you shouldn't base your whole design philosophy on a quote from the 70s. That is the kind of shit SystemD hater shout, while running a display server that also manages input, opengl, a widget toolkit, remote desktop, and the entire printer stack. The more a high profile tool does, the less your janky glue code scripts need to do.
Factual reality. I recently installed w11 on a virtual machine (I was trying to write a cross-platform thing) and to create a local account I literally had to open a terminal during the first boot process, type a couple commands quickly (yes, timing is apparently important), unplug the (virtual) ethernet cable, and reboot.
And people still have the gall to tell me windows is easy.

Top White House officials told a reporter, “Your mom,” when asked who picked the location for Donald Trump’s upcoming meeting with Vladimir Putin.Trump announced Thursday that he will soon meet with Putin in Budapest, Hungary, to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine. The choice has raised questions, because Putin is wanted by the International Criminal Court. However, Hungary appears unlikely to cooperate with the warrant and is in the process of leaving the court, the Associated Press reports.
When HuffPost asked the White House who chose the location for the meeting, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt replied, “Your mom did.” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung also followed up with, “Your mom,” the outlet reports.

I'm nearly done! The Shavian transliteration of my full-length sci-fi novel is nearly ready to publish. Just finished the cover today. Questions and feedback welcome!
Hi everyone, just wanted to share – I've finished the Shavian cover for my novel, Blue Are the Hills. The full Shavian transliteration is complete, and it's almost ready for release (now I'm just doing battle with Scrivener to compile it properly). There are almost no modern novels in Shavian, so I'm looking forward to sharing mine. It's a literary sci-fi novel about identity, hope, and transhumanism. Only a couple of things left to do and it will be ready. This has been a very fun project!
What's Shavian? I'm glad you asked! It's an alphabet created by John Kingsley Read in response to a challenge by George Bernard Shaw, intended to make a lexicon specifically designed for English, in order to make reading and writing English easier.
Here's more info, including many resources (lexicon, guidelines, fonts): shavian.info.

Palestinian factions start 'national dialogue', US appoints diplomat to monitor ceasefire
By MEE staff
Published date: 24 October 2025 20:45 BST
"We emphasise that the current phase requires a unified national position and a national political vision based on unity of voice and destiny, and the rejection of all forms of annexation and displacement in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and Jerusalem," the statement said.The factions urged an end to "all forms of torture and violations against prisoners in Israeli prisons", and "the need to take all necessary measures to maintain security and stability throughout the Gaza Strip".
There was no mention of disarmament - a thorny issue that is unlikely to come to fruition in its absolute form as the US and Israel have demanded.

Why Is Child Marriage Legal in So Many States?
Same reason the House is out of session to avoid releasing the Epstein files?
The vision of a child bride is a deeply foreign concept to most Americans. Underage marriage is regarded by most as an abroad problem, or the type of detestable horror committed by isolated malcontent cult leaders, later to be turned into a true crime documentary one laments over with their friends.But child marriage remains legal in the majority of U.S. states, and getting rid of it has proved supremely difficult.
Thirty-four U.S. states still permit a child under the age of 18 to marry — usually with the consent of their parents or a judge. Four states — California, Mississippi, New Mexico, and Oklahoma — establish no minimum age for a minor to enter into a binding legal and social contract. According to a new report from Unchained at Last, a nonprofit advocating for the end of underage marriage exceptions in the United States, and Equality Now, a gender equality nonprofit, over 314,000 marriages involving minors — most between the ages of 16 and 17 — were registered over the course of the last two decades.
Over 80 percent of those marriages involved a girl who was underage (some as young as 10), and most of those marriages were to adult men. The organization’s report found that in that same time frame, over 60,000 of those marriages involved a child that was not legally old enough to consent to sex with their spouse.
If you aren't irate yet, here are two explanations for opposition:
In New Hampshire, where an underage marriage ban was enacted in 2024, one Republican state representative argued that underage marriage was a “legitimizing option” for girls of “ripe, fertile age” who became pregnant before adulthood. In Missouri, a Republican-authored ban was opposed by members of the same party, with one member of the GOP arguing that eliminating child marriage would increase incentives for the pregnant child to seek an abortion.
Let's go back to "some as young as 10." There's no fucking defense for that. The argument is literally, "If you get a preteen pregnant, you should be able to marry her so she doesn't seek out an abortion."
I'm not a total prude here ... I get that there are edge cases like one high-schooler having just turned 18 while his girlfriend is still a sophomore, which to my mind is a morally grey area, but if that's about a pregnancy, that's a separate issue from marriage itself.
This said, knocking up someone one-third your age and needing the law to swoop to your rescue shows some extremely twisted thinking that probably mean being part of the general public is risky. It shouldn't be rewarded with a literal get-out-of-jail-free card.

inciampamento dell’octo di ieri quasi prevenuto per magia divina (stavo per inciampare sul marciapiede ma mi sono raddrizzata)
Oggi è sabato sera, e quindi, come è ormai tradizione, ho fin troppo da programmare, ma non ho nulla da dire… Tuttavia, considerato che stasera il famoso terremoto l’ho sentito pure io, e dunque i tempi sembrano pericolosamente maturi perché la mia esistenza possa purtroppo terminare a breve, nella malaugurata ipotesi in cui la situazione dovesse peggiorare come ha già fatto in passato in queste terre… Racconterò come stavo non per morire, ma comunque per farmi non proprio bene, ieri mattina, cosa per fortuna non avvenuta… è bene che io mi prenda un minimo di tempo per raccontare le storielle divertenti prima di dimenticarmele ma, soprattutto, prima che muoio. 😳Ieri mattina ero circa in ritardo per prendere l’autobus, e quindi, pur non dovendo correre, ho ovviamente dovuto tenere un passo veloce e sostenuto per non rischiare di raggiungere la fermata troppo tardi… che non è inusuale per me, quindi è strano che sia successo proprio quello che è successo. Praticamente, ad un certo punto del marciapiede su cui stavo, proprio in mezzo davanti a me, c’era un vecchio, che si muoveva fin troppo lentamente… quindi, per non dover uccidere il ritmo, ho dovuto in un attimo spostarmi verso il bordo esterno del marciapiede. Peccato che, forse perché ero ancora mezza fatta di sonno, o forse perché lo spazio di manovra era poco, perché proprio in quel punto c’era anche un palo, sono inciampata nel classico modo alla Taiga Aisaka o alla Usagi Tsukino. 😭
Non mi ricordo (perché sul momento ovviamente non ho processato la cosa, e a ripensarci pochi istanti o minuti dopo non ci ho capito niente) nemmeno come sia possibile che, inciampando nel bordo sinistro del marciapiede (relativamente alla mia direzione, il marciapiede era sulla destra della strada), io sia finita verso destra, quindi di nuovo dentro il marciapiede… ma ci stavo per finire di faccia, che non è proprio un ottimo modo di iniziare la giornata, direi; e, se non di faccia, certamente con le mani, quindi con buona probabilità di spaccare pure il telefono, che avevo in mano. Il bello però è che, in qualche modo, in realtà, non sono caduta… sono riuscita a ribilanciarmi in alto, e continuare a camminare senza nemmeno fermarmi… anche se mi pare di aver fatto molto rumore nella cosa, quindi ancora mi chiedo se il vecchio ha notato che stavo per scapezzarmi qualche metro avanti a lui… 😦
La cosa in realtà non dovrebbe essere tanto strana… suppongo che, nella realtà, fuori dai manga, per gente fisicamente giovane (pure se magari tremendamente vecchia dentro come me), riuscire a non cascare per terra di faccia camminando per strada sia la normalità, e non una roba stupefacente… eppure, a pensarci, quello che mi è successo mi sembra semplicemente rara fortuna; una gentile concessione da parte degli spiriti che, seppur hanno questo terribile vizio di farmi di continuo scherzi di pessimo gusto, non vogliono veramente farmi del male… Perché, a parte che se ero abbastanza addormentata da inciampare, non capisco come io abbia fatto allora a salvarmi dal cadere… ma avevo lo zaino mezzo pesante addosso, ovviamente (con dentro il PC che fa gran parte della massa e dell’area, e oggetti misti). 🙀
Questo è in effetti un bel problema di fisica, che non ho idea di come trasformare in dati formali, e quindi certamente non posso risolvere, ma lascerò l’esercizio ai lettori, come si suol dire per chi non ha voglia di ragionare quando scrive (io, e gli autori dei libri di matematica)… Sono stata capace di raddrizzarmi durante la caduta nonostante lo zaino, o magari, di contro, proprio grazie allo zaino? E, inoltre, sono inciampata anche per colpa dello zaino, o questo non ha fatto praticamente differenza nel momento di terrore? Non è ovviamente la prima volta che rischio di capitombolare malamente su semplici marciapiedi e con indosso scarpe normali, comode, ma ora non ricordo tutte le variabili delle altre volte. L’importante è che, alla fine, il bus che ho preso è stato quello per l’università, come da piani, e non ho dovuto piuttosto aspettare quello per l’ospedale… 🥴
…Ma inoltre, posando questa roba e parlando invece di quelle leggi naturali non scritte… è per caso possibile che questo evento sia da imputare ad un potenziale karma negativo che ho accumulato youthmaxxando e agilitymoggando praticamente ogni giorno vecchi per strada, semplicemente superandoli in continuazione camminando? Per favore, astenersi moralisti da questa domanda in particolare, che il dubbio è serio… Cioè, io mica lo faccio apposta ad essere più veloce di loro, è che ho la mia vita e i miei tempi e sono sempre di fretta e quindi volente o nolente devo fare un po’ di gaming con le gambe… sotto sotto dispiace anche a me di sottoporre i poveri anziani a queste umiliazioni, ma non ho deciso io di avere 21 anni. 💔
