Elisa Rovesta, Fashion outsider — Illustrazioni di Roberta Cassisa. Pagine 108, 15 euro — OLIGO, dal 10 ottobre in libreria

[strong]La Moda come Rivoluzione: “Fashion Outsider”[/strong]
“Fashion Outsider” non è un semplice libro, ma un viaggio affascinante nelle vite di chi ha fatto della moda una vera e propria rivoluzione. Il volume esplora come icone culturali del calibro di Frida Kahlo, Salvador Dalì, Coco Chanel e Madonna abbiano trasformato il loro stile personale in una dichiarazione di intenti, riscrivendo le regole del fashion system e lasciando un segno indelebile.

L’autrice, forte della sua esperienza nel mondo del branding e delle tendenze, ci guida attraverso storie di ribellione, innovazione e audacia estetica. Scopriamo come queste figure, con i loro abiti, accessori e persino il loro portamento, abbiano sfidato le convenzioni sociali e artistiche, diventando fonte di ispirazione globale. La moda non è più vista come una semplice scelta di stile, ma come un potente strumento di emancipazione personale e culturale.

Hai detto profumo? Come lo vuoi? Molecolare, senza alcool, con olii naturali e ciliegie ghiacciate dell ’Himalaya… dove si trovano queste ciliegie poi? Profumi di nicchia, commerciali, con mille materie prime. Ma un profumo non è solo ciò che percepiamo con l ’olfatto. A volte è ciò che si sente nel cuore, che ci racconta storie, ci evoca epoche, amicizie, luoghi lontani. Ad esempio, un profumo può raccontarci una delle storie più affascinanti del XX secolo: l’amicizia tra Misia Sert e Coco Chanel. Due donne di mondi diversi, unite nella Parigi dorata dell’inizio del secolo, dove arte emoda intrecciavano le vite di personaggi straordinari. La loro amicizia divenne il fondamento di un’intesa unica, e di un supporto reciproco forse raro, ma prezioso.

It is the latest in a series of Trump administration efforts to dispute, silence or downplay climate change.

The Energy Department has added “climate change,” “green” and “decarbonization” to its growing “list of words to avoid” at its Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, according to an email issued Friday and obtained by POLITICO.

The words on the DOE list are at the heart of EERE’s mission: It is the government’s largest investor in technologies that help reduce heat-trapping emissions that cause climate change as well as the hazardous pollution from fossil fuels. It is the latest in a series of Trump administration efforts to dispute, silence or downplay the realities of climate change.

“Please ensure that every member of your team is aware that this is the latest list of words to avoid — and continue to be conscientious about avoiding any terminology that you know to be misaligned with the Administration’s perspectives and priorities,” the directive from acting director of external affairs Rachel Overbey said.

An Israeli parliamentary committee has advanced a bill to allow the execution of Palestinian prisoners.

Under the bill, judges would be able to impose the death penalty on Palestinians who kill Israelis based on so-called “nationalistic” motives. The law would not apply to Israelis who kill Palestinians under similar circumstances.

The bill - introduced by Limor Son Har-Melech, a lawmaker from Itamar Ben Gvir’s Otzma Yehudit party - was approved on Sunday by the Knesset’s National Security Committee, with four lawmakers voting in favour and one against.

For the past 15 years, F-Droid has provided a safe and secure haven for Android users around the world to find and install free and open source apps. When contrasted with the commercial app stores — of which the Google Play store is the most prominent — the differences are stark: they are hotbeds of spyware and scams, blatantly promoting apps that prey on their users through attempts to monetize their attention and mine their intimate information through any means necessary, including trickery and dark patterns.

Now that players have settled with the changes in The Third Edict, it's time for some more Path of Exile 2 racing action starting from the 5th of October PDT! While the races are open to everyone, the purpose of them is to crown players that are willing to prove themselves against others. With an overhaul to Skill and Support gems as well as a whole new Act filled with tons of new bosses, the next race is sure to be a thrilling watch!

In this season's set of events, players will compete to be the first to kill Tavakai in Act 4 in a Solo Self-Found Rise of the Abyssal fixed layout environment. While this is not a Hardcore Event, players will incur a penalty upon death where they will not be able to move until a two and a half minute period has lapsed. It will also be the first race to include the new Abyssal league content!

We'll be posting the ladder links below (when they're ready) so you'll be able to check who's leading in real-time during each race, or check the best times after the race to see how you fare against the top players.

In order to join, click the "Join" button for the race in the Character Select screen. You'll then be prompted to create a character. Once you've spawned in, you won't be able to move your character until the race starts.

These races will be open to PC and Console with a shared prize pool.

Event Times and Dates

• Race 1: October 5th 12PM PDT
• Race 2: October 12th 12PM PDT
• Race 3: October 19th 12PM PDT

We suggest that you join the races early, as each race will start at the same time for all players.

Prizes

The Demigod's Virtue Unique item will be up for grabs for the top placement of each class:

• Ranger
• Sorceress
• Witch
• Monk
• Warrior
• Mercenary
• Huntress

This means in each race, seven Demigod's Virtues will be awarded. Future events will include other classes when they're added to Early Access.

As we do more race events in the future, we'll cycle through all the Demigod's items. They'll eventually represent an entire armour set including weaponry, so you might be able to collect the entire set if you're good enough!

Upon the conclusion of each race, a Remove-Only stash tab will be added in your core leagues where you can choose to remove the item from the tab to equip it, show it off, link it to others or keep it there as a trophy for the ages. Or you can trade it away if you don't care, your call!

If you want to use it as a cosmetic, you'll be able to convert it into a microtransaction using the /convertracereward chat command.

All future leagues will have this Remove-Only stash tab too, but they will only become available one month into the league.

We're also awarding more prizes in this set of races! The fastest times for each class across all three races will receive their choice of one of the new Official Path of Exile 2 Displates:

Check out the full selection of Displates here.

Finally, a Divination Card design will be awarded to the fastest player out of all three races.

Rules

These races are free to participate in and anyone is welcome to join. Streaming your POV will not be mandatory for this event. There are no limitations to how many races you can join, which means you will be able to win multiple Demigod's Virtues if you're skilled enough!

Please note that the use of inappropriate character names (i.e. those that breach our Terms of Use) during your run will result in you being disqualified from participating in that event or future race events in the series. If you plan to stream your run, these rules will also apply to throw-away stream names for those that are streaming on alternate channels. Please also note that any character names that appear to be attempting to subtly skirt the rules or get around them while still being generally appropriate will count as a breach in this instance. If you want to play it safe, just use your regular stream/race names that people regularly know you by. If you're using an alt to obscure your strategy, that's okay but please keep the above rules in mind.

Grinding Gear Games staff will be excluded from winning prizes in these events.

Where to Watch

Each of these races will be hosted live on twitch.tv/pathofexile with shoutcasting by ZiggyD and RaizQT. Co-streaming is welcome!

Good luck to everyone who is planning to participate! We can't wait to see how old strategies fair with the new Act, or if new strategies will come out on top!

Labour Party delegates will decide on Monday whether to adopt an emergency motion declaring that 'Israel' is committing genocide in Gaza and calling for a full arms embargo. The vote will take place during the party’s annual conference in Liverpool.

Middle East Minister Hamish Falconer opposed the motion on Sunday, warning that it could undermine aspects of the Middle East peace process. The motion, titled “Peace in the Middle East 2”, will be considered alongside another proposal broadly supporting existing Labour policy on 'Israel'.

If passed, the motion would signal Labour’s official acceptance of a UN Commission of Inquiry report that found 'Israel' guilty of committing genocide in Gaza. It would also back comprehensive sanctions on 'Israel' and a full arms embargo. Delegates from constituencies and affiliated organisations will vote on multiple motions over the next few days.

The vast majority of places where you can find the kinds of sedimentary rocks that allow carbon dioxide to be stored underground sit in higher risk zones or in areas like the Arctic that are potentially off-limits for practical or political reasons, the study found.

That has big implications for the energy transition, since once carbon dioxide is put into storage, it’s supposed to stay there for as long as possible. Any storage sites we use today can’t be expected to be available for future generations — not just the children and grandchildren of people alive today but “more than ten generations into the future,” the study notes.

The study concludes that nearly 90 percent of that storage capacity is in less-than-desirable locations.

I am currently using a Pixel 6a, with GrapheneOS.

However, since Google's update to the battery, my phone is discharging very fast (talking about one percent per minute).

I have looked at changing the battery myself, however it seems to be a bit over my skill level.
So, I am in the market for a new phone. (And quite pissed off at Google, especially since they announced the changes to signing, apks, the issues with graphene,...

This time, I would like :
- maybe try Linux?
- a headphone Jack

I have been looking at postmarket OS, however every supported device is quite old, and I'm not sure if/ how much they are usable today.

I looked at fairphone, but FP5&6 don't support postmarket OS and don't have a headphone Jack.

Currently, I am looking at the Jolla Phone (running SailfishOS), as it has a Jack, and runs Linux.

Do you know of other options, what would you recommend?
