Η φρίκη δεν έχει τέλος στη Λέσβο:

Τις πρωινές ώρες σήμερα, σκάφος των λιμενόμπατσων εντόπισε μια σορό άρρενος σε προχωρημένη σήψη, στη θαλάσσια περιοχή «ΤΣΟΝΙΑ» της Λέσβου.

Η σορός, ύψους 1,20 μ., πιθανότατα ανήκει σε παιδί, με εκτιμώμενη ηλικία μεταξύ 6 και 10 ετών, βάσει του μικρού αναστήματος. Εντοπίστηκε χωρίς κεφάλι και αριστερό άνω άκρο, ενώ έφερε μπλε τζιν παντελόνι, πράσινη μπλούζα και κάλτσες. Η κατάσταση της σορού και τα ρούχα υποδηλώνουν ότι βρισκόταν στο νερό για αρκετό διάστημα, δυσχεραίνοντας την ταυτοποίηση.

"Telling the truth is unhelpful"

US votes against #UN resolution over language on Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine. Another new low for the US regime.

Jonathan Shrier, acting US representative to the UN Economic and Social Council, said Washington opposed it because of repeated statements about the war in Ukraine that the U.S. considers “unhelpful in advancing the cause of peace.”

My position on socialist imagery

in reply to Jackie 🍉

A symbol's meaning depends on who uses it. Unfortunately, this introduces complications when the point of a symbol is to signal who is using it. I am all for reclaiming symbols but the hammer and sickle especially is in a position of needing to be reclaimed and to be used responsibly one should signal their commitment to non-authoritarian communism simultaneously using other means.
in reply to Alephwyr: Dragon of Regret and Trying ΘΔ

I've done my best to signal to my followers (and to an extent the irl people in my life) to show that I don't believe in gulags, ethnic cleansing, or one party rule.
in reply to Jackie 🍉

I instead believe in police abolition, a multiethnic society, and the abolition of political parties in favor of non-partisan elections.
in reply to Jackie 🍉

That's good. And I see your sickle is pride coded, which does a good job of signaling to libleft people (your presumed audience) that you have humanitarian commitments. I just think there are some flags that one shouldn't fly solo.

Excellent driving conditions north of Albuquerque. #NewMexico
in reply to Josh

The image depicts a highway scene shrouded in a thick layer of dust or fog, creating a hazy atmosphere. The road is a two-lane highway with a yellow dividing line in the center and white lines marking the edges. Several vehicles are visible, including a black sedan in the left lane and a silver SUV in the right lane, both moving towards the camera. In the distance, more vehicles can be seen, indicating traffic flow. The surrounding landscape is dry and barren, with sparse vegetation and a fence running parallel to the road on the left side. The sky is overcast, contributing to the poor visibility. The overall color palette is muted, dominated by shades of gray and brown, reflecting the dusty conditions.

@chad I too love my solar oven, I have one just like this one, but I don't use it nearly as often as I should/could. I also invested in the bigger one sometime back, but it's never been out of the bag. It's kind of reserved for cooking for more people, or if the small one breaks.

"[N]ot only do the structurally empowered eighty-to-ninety-percent-men of technical organizations...get to choose emotions over efficacy, they get to do so while also maintaining the notion that they never have emotions in the first place."

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why the phrase "vibe coding" is so effective at shaming people who let LLMs write their code.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, that "doing things by feelings" is shameful in my field.

"In some systems otherness causes smartness to dissolve because otherness is more useful to the system than the smartness."

Replace "smartness" with "humanity" and you get the recipe for making big money in big tech. This is the reason FAANG treats you as a user, not a person.

Again, Dr. Hicks knows all this, I'm just live tooting.

Hier noch mal ein kleiner Eindruck in Bildern, wie sich das #ReisenMitDerDeutschenBahn rund um Köln gerade so anfühlt.
Und jetzt bin ich auch durch mit meinem Gemecker. Sorry an alle, die mich noch nicht gemutet haben.
in reply to Fuchsmädchen

Das Bild zeigt eine mobile Anwendung, die Reiseverbindungen in Deutschland anzeigt. Die Uhrzeit auf dem Bildschirm ist 23:47 Uhr, und die Netzwerkverbindung ist 5G mit 80% Akkulaufzeit. Die Anwendung zeigt Verbindungen von Köln Hbf nach Niederdollendorf Bahnhof, Königswinter.

Oben auf dem Bildschirm steht "Startseite" und "Verbindungen". Die erste Verbindung ist für 22:11 Uhr und dauert 52 Minuten mit einer Umsteigerstelle. Sie wird mit der S-Bahn Linie S 19 und der Regionalbahn Linie RB 27 dargestellt. Die zweite Verbindung ist für 23:03 Uhr und dauert 37 Minuten, ebenfalls mit der RE 8. Ein Warnhinweis in roter Farbe informiert, dass die RE 10839 abweichend von Köln Hbf ab Gleis 3 fährt.

Unten auf dem Bildschirm sind die Optionen "Buchen", "Reisen" und "Profil" zu sehen. Die aktuelle Verbindung, die abweicht, ist hervorgehoben.

Entschuldigung, ich konnte dieses Bild nicht verarbeiten.
