These bike lanes were completed 1.5 years ago. For the past week at least they’ve been closed for repair. The closure violates City policy. There’s little to no warning, no detour, and “dismount and walk” is supposed to only be a last resort.
youtu.be/lrKb9fhjIdE?feature=s…
I have the sign on a shirt but motorists think I’m joking.
I took the road but the City’s policy is to provide a proper detour. That policy is never followed. For some people, taking the road or pushing their bike 11 blocks on the sidewalk would be a significant deterrent to biking. With the drivers in this city, it’s much, much more dangerous to be in the road as opposed to in a protected bike lane

At least 54 #Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military across #Gaza since dawn today. #Israel has killed 84 Palestinians and injured 338 in the past 24 hours. Three more Palestinians have died from famine; this brings the total of famine deaths to 370, including 131 children. The #Israeli military warns that it will impose direct martial rule over the entire Gaza Strip. Israel strikes a warehouse in southern #Lebanon. Rubio met with #Mexico’s Claudia Sheinbaum and defended the recent #US missile strike on a #Venezuelan vessel. Iraqi officials claim to have busted a global Islamic State “financing network.”

The epitome of my laziness came today.
I was sitting back in my recliner watching TV, then wanted to play some games. I did not want to get up to hit the power button on the gaming PC.
So I used my phone to SSH into my server, then sent the gaming PC a wake-on-lan packet.
Switched the TV input to the PC and started playing.
Then I realized that was actually kind of sad. 😀

I'm so glad I got to see these brilliantly shambolic brothers open for Echo & the Bunnymen in the 80s. They were so cringe, but still competent songwriters and they were just as drunk and stoned as I anticipated and I had a blast. They were exactly as I expected live. They were prettyish boys without going over the top with the misogyny, and had some genuinely good tracks.
Then Echo took the stage and my soul hovered over my body.

Trump expected to order rebrand of Pentagon as ‘Department of War’
Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order on Friday authorizing the US Department of Defense to rebrand itself as the “department of war”, the White House said, as part of an attempt to formalize the name change without an act of Congress.
[the name actually better expresses what they do, create and engage in wars, rather than defend the u.s.]

Formula for distance between two points is the Haversine formula. I was good in math in school, but now my brain is fried.
rosettacode.org/wiki/Haversine…
from math import radians, sin, cos, sqrt, asin
def haversine(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2):
R = 6372.8 # Earth radius in kilometers
dLat = radians(lat2 - lat1)
dLon = radians(lon2 - lon1)
lat1 = radians(lat1)
lat2 = radians(lat2)
a = sin(dLat / 2)**2 + cos(lat1) * cos(lat2) * sin(dLon / 2)**2
c = 2 * asin(sqrt(a))
return R * c

"Non ci sono atei in trincea"
Quando si rimprovera che, chi bestemmia, ammetta l'esistenza di Dio.
@bulll mah, è una vecchia maniera di riassorbire la critica alla religiosità sottintesa nella bestemmia. Rifiutarsi di giocare a basket non è una maniera di giocare a basket. Potrei fare altri parallelismi, ma il discorso è già chiaro.
Il rapporto conflittuale con Dio non è rappresentato dalle bestemmie. Semmai si manifesta con crisi mistiche, sforzi di autoconvincimento, ricerca e frequenza di altre confessioni (cattolici che diventano luterani, calvinisti, anglicani...).
Das Bild zeigt einen Text auf einem dunkelblauen Hintergrund, der Nachrichten über US-Präsident Trump enthält. Der Text beginnt mit "+++ 23:12 Berichte: Trump will, dass Europäer kein russisches Öl mehr importieren +++" und beschreibt, dass Trump in übereinstimmenden Medienberichten Ölgeschäfte mit Russland kritisiert. Es wird erwähnt, dass Trump in einem Telefonat mit europäischen Ländern die Ölgeschäfte mit Russland beenden forderte, da diese seinen Krieg gegen die Ukraine finanzieren sollen. Zudem soll Trump Druck auf China ausüben. Die Nachrichtenquelle wird als Axios und CNN genannt, und auch die Zeitung "Bild" berichtet über diese Vorwürfe.

The image features a cat wearing sunglasses and a pink floral headscarf, sitting in a car. The cat is holding a cup with its paws. The background shows a blurred outdoor setting with a building and some vegetation. The image includes text in Spanish: "Las girls solo queremos una cosa: Reivindicar el concepto de libertad tergiversado por la economía neoliberal." The text is overlaid on the image, with the top text in a larger font and the bottom text in a smaller font. The image is a meme, with the cat's appearance and the text conveying a humorous message about reclaiming the concept of freedom distorted by neoliberal economics.

in reply to John Wilker 👨🏽💻 • • •A normal year I probably land somewhere between 50 and 60, but it can vary quite a bit, both up and down.
This has been a slow year, currently at 28.
I also read mostly Science Fiction and Fantasy.
My parents read to us as kids, library visits and always a book or two on birthdays and Christmas made sure I always had something to read. Both of them read a lot too.
I've had very slow periods in my life, but I don't think I've ever been without a book at all.

in reply to Jeff Grigg • • •It always makes me sad to think that so many of my "professional" peers have "never read another book after college." I used to say "It's because I have all the books!" And I've generally had bookshelves full of books, both (mostly science) fiction, and non-fiction (mostly related to software development).
But I auctioned off my library (and sold my house and car) when I went "on the road" full time for work.
