temporalesco bombardamento con risveglio amaro di guerra! (temporale notturno terrificante)


Stanotte, così, di colpo, mentre che stavo lì nel mio lettino dormendo tranquillamente per conto mio, ho sognato che erano arrivate le IDF a bombardare il mio comune. Ok, no, sto scherzando, non l’ho sognato… bensì l’ho immaginato da sveglia, addirittura. Infatti, verso la mattina molto presto (che per me è piena notte, ormai), mi sono svegliata malamente sentendo dei rumori allucinanti che, vi giuro, sembravano delle fottute bombe, sganciate di continuo con pause di poche decine di secondi tra l’una e l’altra. Tutto mentre io volevo solamente dormire, che con ‘sto caldo maledetto già è difficile… la cosa non è finita per niente bene. 😩

Quello che a quanto pare è davvero successo è semplicemente che è arrivato un temporale di come credo di non averne mai sentiti in tutta la mia vita, perché io in genere non mi sveglio mai anche quando fa bruttissimo tempo… eppure, stavolta è successo. Ciò che udivo fortissimo, nonostante tutte le finestre serrate e la porta della mia stanza chiusa come al solito, quindi, erano fulmini… o almeno, questo è quello che dicono i poteri forti, ma io un po’ fatico a crederci. Magari mi ricordo male eh, perché già ero a metà tra il sonno e la veglia, e ovviamente tutto il disturbo non ha potuto fare altro che peggiorarmi l’umore, ma giuro di aver sentito ogni volta addirittura l’onda d’urto addosso, cioè la vibrazione. Praticamente se questi fossero davvero fulmini, e non ordigni, allora probabilmente erano larghi quanto un grattacielo e sono caduti a svariate decine di kilometri di distanza… ben fuori dal mio comune… Quindi… si può per caso dire che gli israeliani non hanno bombardato il mio comune, ma la mia provincia si??? (È persino saltata la corrente per dei minuti!) 😭

Credo di aver perso circa 10 minuti di sonno così ma, sicuramente, la mia concezione del tempo in quello stato è da diffidare… e, stranamente, la mia Mi Band stanotte non ha registrato un singolo minuto di zzz (se non l’ultimissimo quarto d’ora, che ha per qualche motivo contato come sonnellino). E passino i fulmini che mi sono sembrati chiaramente bombe nonostante io nel frattempo riuscissi a sentire fortissime le gocce di pioggia (perché alla fine che cazzo ne so da richiusa nel mio letto, magari davvero stavano radendo la città al tappeto e le gocce che sentivo o erano sostanze chimiche che venivano fatte piovere per causare ulteriori danni, o erano le nuvole che rilasciavano l’acqua per sbalzi di temperatura dovuti alle esplosioni), ma il fatto che proprio stanotte la Mi Band abbia malfunzionato mi fa specialmente paura… così come mi fa paura che ormai, nonostante siamo nell’anno del Signore 2025, la guerra è così tanto un fatto attuale che — pur senza viverla, ma solo sentendone parlare a ripetizione da qualche anno — entra nel subconscio a tal punto da farci scambiare fenomeni naturali per un attacco umano, quando il cervello non ha abbastanza informazioni per disambiguare. ☠️
Ik tornadoes aredangerous but I just wantto fly in one someday 😍Pensandoci, forse è un po’ un peccato che non solo quei rumori non fossero esplosioni, ma che non ci fosse nemmeno vento (almeno, così mi ha detto mio padre)… neanche un piccolo tornado, niente di niente. Quello sarebbe stato divertente, così whooosh, e volavo via, e quindi ihihih, basta vivere in questo carcere spirituale!!! 🌪️

Anyways, what a tradgedy.

Not forgetting there are certain disabilities where it is just impossible to work under capitalism and that’s okay. Not everyone has to work to be valuable.



The Magic Earth application now comes with a charge


Recently, Magic Lane (the company that makes the Magic Earth application) completely renewed their interface and general operation.

To use the application, you now have to pay €0.99/year.
Personally, I find this price more than reasonable for supporting a European alternative to Google Maps.

in reply to Dequei

For me, the CoMaps (or OrganicMaps) application is pretty good for the map side of things. On the other hand, when it comes to navigation, I find Magic Earth much more complete (speed camera display, better traffic management, optimized interface for landscape navigation, reporting of road events, better precision of lanes to follow, and I'm forgetting many others).
in reply to Gueoris

I agree. For example, in Toronto CoMaps only shows subway navigation to a certain destination, whereas Magic Earth displays a more precise mix of transit options (subway+tram/bus)



Capitalism in a Nutshell

“Sustainable Capitalism” , good Orwellian oxymoron!

Whats next, “Gentle Fascism”?

in reply to TranscendentalEmpire

I hate that “Libertarianism” in US-english means those “free” market dumbasses.

It actually meant anarchist (anti-capitalist) originally and was a euphemism for anarchist when it was banned to be one. It still means that in French generally.

I mean, it's not atypical for Americans to completely redefine a political definition so badly it loses all meaning. Just look at how most of us define our "leftist" leadership.....
in reply to FundMECFS

Yeah.... Our education system isn't big on political history, or really history in general.
in reply to TranscendentalEmpire

yall seem to learn plenty about the glorious colonialists who brought civilisation (/s)
in reply to FundMECFS

Because other systems are much more sustainable. Just ask folks in Norilsk. Or Lake Karachay. Or pripyat. Or the Aral sea. Or...
in reply to Tja

Ah yes, the only possible systems are Capitalism and the Soviet Union, which in practice was basically state Capitalism.
in reply to FundMECFS

We have China, want to talk about that? Cuba? Oh, oh... North Korea??
in reply to Tja

…. Yeah, state capitalism.

You’re not gonna tell me countries with billionaires, capital accumulation, market logic, are communist?

The main exception is north korea but that’s just a totalitarian planned economy.

in reply to FundMECFS

Cuba is capitalist? The things I learn on lemmy... Someone should let the Americans know!
in reply to Tja

Cuba has corporations, billionaires, and “free” (neoliberal) trade.

Just because they fly a red flag and call themselves communist doesn’t make them such.

Feds brag about hefty Oracle discount – licensing experts smell a lock-in


The US General Services Administration (GSA) has announced an agreement with Oracle it claims offers a 75 percent discount on the vendor's license-based technology.

However, experts have pointed out that heavy discounts are commonly offered to Oracle customers, and a 75 percent discount might not be as good as it sounds. Big Red can lock customers into deals stipulating that any attempt to reduce Oracle usage can see discounts disappear and prices rise.

As part of the arrangement, the GSA has agreed to other base discounts for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services including the vendor's latest database, Oracle Database 23ai. The agreement eliminates data egress fees and provides pricing parity with commercial offerings, a statement said. The Register has asked the GSA how this was benchmarked.

In 2023, analysis by IT procurement consultant Michael Garland found that Oracle and Microsoft get at least 25 percent and 30 percent of their respective government revenue through purchase processes that are not competitive, collectively benefiting by $10-15 billion annually.

Proposal to Sell Gaza Land Via Crypto Tokens Met With Backlash


The Tony Blair Institute helped form a plan that proposed selling land in Gaza via blockchain tokens, the Financial Times reported Monday, after paying Palestinians to leave their land. The tokenization project would have also seen the region rebuilt with Dubai-style artificial islands and “blockchain-trade initiatives,” complete with Elon Musk and Donald Trump-themed areas.

A slide deck titled the “Great Trust” was developed by the Boston Consulting Group, or BCG, the FT reported on Sunday, with participation from two staff members from the Tony Blair Institute—an organization founded by the former UK prime minister. It was shared with the Trump administration, according to the FT, which echoed similar sentiments in February.

The deck suggested paying half a million Palestinians to leave Gaza to attract private investors to redevelop the area, following Israel’s bombings. It proposed that the public land in Gaza be put into a trust and sold via “digital tokens traded on a blockchain.” Gazans could add their private land into the trust in return for a token that would give them the right to a housing unit.

amerika is such a disgusting nation, with a history of doing this in many different ways since it was founded. kill and drive out all locals and claim the land as their own. bringing “democracy” to war torn areas. you know why it’s war torn? CAUSE THE US MADE IT WAR TORN

Tony Blair really should have been tried and executed a long time ago.



Transforming Air Travel Comfort – A Deep Dive into the Cabin Interior Composites Market


The aviation industry is constantly evolving to enhance passenger experience, operational efficiency, and sustainability. A vital component of this transformation is the Cabin Interior Composites Market, which is gaining remarkable traction worldwide. A new industry report highlights the rapid growth, key innovations, and strategic developments in this space, underscoring its critical role in modern aircraft design.

Cabin Interior Composites Market Size was estimated at 3.17 (USD Billion) in 2022. The Cabin Interior Composites Market is expected to grow from 3.34 (USD Billion) in 2023 to 5.4 (USD Billion) by 2032. The Cabin Interior Composites Market CAGR (growth rate) is expected to be around 5.48% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

As airlines seek lightweight, durable, and aesthetically pleasing cabin materials, composites have become the go-to solution. From seats and panels to flooring and overhead bins, composite materials are revolutionizing how aircraft interiors are built and experienced.

Cabin interior composites refer to advanced materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties. These materials—typically including carbon fiber, fiberglass, and aramid—offer superior strength-to-weight ratios, fire resistance, and design flexibility. In aviation, these composites are used in a variety of applications including seat frames, wall panels, luggage compartments, lavatories, and galleys.

The Cabin Interior Composites Market is a crucial enabler of the next generation of air travel—where safety, comfort, sustainability, and efficiency converge. As highlighted in the latest report, continuous innovations, rising passenger expectations, and global regulatory pressures are accelerating the shift toward composite-based interiors. Industry stakeholders who invest in material innovation, digital manufacturing, and sustainable practices will be best positioned to capitalize on this growth trajectory.

Trasferimento comunità Milano su Citiverse


ciao!
Come accennato anche qui: feddit.it/post/19417985/145213… questa comunità è stata precorritrice dei tempi ed è l'unica che ora si ritrova con un vero e proprio "clone" su Citiverse: citiverse.it/category/14/milan…

Visto e onsiderato che Citiverse nasce proprio per le realtà locali penso sia il caso di chiudere questa comunità chiedendo di usare solo l'altra. Su Citiverse è inoltre prevista la possibilità di creare anche delle sottocategorie delle città per i vari quartieri quindi sarà possibile in futuro e su richiesta aprire comunità di Lambrate, San Siro etc cosa invece più complessa e meno gestibile qui su Feddit.

@mapto@feddit.it attualmente sei moderatore di questa comunità, se hai piacere posso farti mod anche di quella su Citiverse.

ok perfetto, compare in stile forum qui: citiverse.it/category/113/lamb… ed è sotto la categoria Milano e può essere trovata sul fediverso da chiunque con @lambrate@citiverse.it

I don't see how even Amazon can try to kill the competition in a market that huge, regardless of price or convenience.


So I assume you wrote this after picking up groceries from your locally owned grocery store? Because you still have one - it didn't collapse due to a Walmart coming to town?

Most of us have a solid example of what driving a grocery store out of business looks like, though.

As often reminded, that's probably a zoning issue.

Here on a different continent I live in an area BESIEGED by supermarkets, but I buy most of my groceries at the baker (breadmaker) and fruit-and-vegetables shop down the street. They're more expensive but more convenient and higher quality.

With the advantage of there not being a butcher as close-by, meaning I've been eating way more veggies since moving (and eggs, given those are sold in both stores).

Now the issue is they're opening a new pedestrian path that leads straight from my home to the pastry shop on the neighboring block!

Elon Musk hired a dozen Texas lobbyists this year. State law keeps the extent of their influence under wraps.


Musk, the billionaire businessman behind Tesla and SpaceX, influenced several new Texas laws this year. How his lobbyists came about these wins, however, is more of a mystery.

His lobbyists, who represented Tesla, SpaceX and the social media giant X Corp., spent tens of thousands of dollars on things like gifts and meals for Texas elected officials and others during the session, according to an analysis of state ethics data. In most cases, Texas transparency laws do not require lobbyists to disclose which politicians they wined and dined or on behalf of which clients.

A slate of ethics bills, including several to require transparency into who funds mass text messages for political campaigns, failed to become law this year, according to The Texas Tribune. Meanwhile, legislators approved a new law that will reduce the fine for former lawmakers who engage in illegal lobbying activity.




Flooded Texas County opposed siren alert system that could have warned residents because of the cost


A recent effort to bolster emergency communication infrastructure failed in the Texas Senate earlier this year

As the death toll from flash floods in Central Texas climbs past 80, scrutiny is mounting over Kerr County's past decisions to reject an outdoor siren alert system due to cost concerns.

Kerr County, located in a flood-prone region of the Texas Hill Country, has previously dismissed proposals for siren-based warning systems, citing financial burden on local taxpayers.

A recent effort at the state level to bolster emergency communication infrastructure, House Bill 13, failed in the Texas Senate earlier this year. The bill would have funded improved disaster alert systems and provided grants for counties to build infrastructure like sirens and radio towers, according to the Texas Tribune.

Some lawmakers, including state Rep. Wes Virdell, voted against it due to its projected $500 million cost, though several now admit they're reconsidering in the wake of recent events.
