Das Bild zeigt eine Kombination aus einem klassischen Gemälde und moderner Werbung. Auf der linken Seite ist ein Porträt einer Frau in historischer Kleidung zu sehen, die eine elektronische Zigarette (Vape) in der Hand hält und Rauch ausatmet. Der Hintergrund ist in einem leuchtenden Rosa- und Lila-Ton gehalten. Auf der rechten Seite befindet sich ein Text in deutscher Sprache, der über Vaping als alternative zu Zigarettenrauchen spricht. Der Text betont, dass Vaping nicht gesünder ist als Rauchen und dass die kleinen Geräte Geborgenheit spenden. Es wird eine verständnisvolle Stilkritik vorgestellt. Der Text ist von Bernhard Heckler verfasst und erschien in SZ Plus.

Awoo! 🐺

Put the tripod (which I've had since about 1995!) in the car today, in the night I've got the yard to myself (other than some cats), and set up the #Lumix so I can use my mobile phone as a cable release and even a remote viewfinder!

Cropped from larger image shot with 40-150mm zoom (as much as I can afford at the moment), most of my #photography is fairly close range stuff anyway (with a lot of indoor and macro shots)

#diariodecosasbonitas Hace 2 años comencé un "muro verde" de bambú en la terraza. En esta foto sacada ahora mismo se ve escalonado. Eso ocurre porque aunque ya algunas zonas han crecido suficiente y son frondosas otras aún no porque son más actuales.

Tengo una zona ya donde puse un huevo. Es donde ando ahora sentado y donde mi idea es leer.

He puesto hoy por fin pequeñas placas solares con sensores y luces. Luz no directa a los ojos.

in reply to fanta 🐌

Me encanta, y tengo un sinfín de preguntas: variedad, orientación, régimen de heladas, riegos, volumen de las macetas, altura máxima que alcanza, podas. (Bueno, siete preguntas)
in reply to Elfo(restal)

pues es una variedad de bambú que no crece mucho (bambú negro enano creo recordar). Macetones grandes de terracota con agujeros abajo y sobre placas también de terracota para que el agua no se estanque.

Tiene riego automático varias veces al día.

La poda una vez al año la hago de puntas y tal. Las hojas se caen en otoño.

El bambú puede ser peligroso e irse fuera de control. En mi caso anda en un entorno bastante controlado y es una especie que venden en verdecora, fronda, etc ...

in reply to fanta 🐌

@clifor si mal no recuerdo esta variedad unos 2 metros y medio. Para mi es más que suficiente y he tenido que podarlo ya este año para mantener la altura que quiero.

Lo bueno es que es muy flexible y resistente. Para heladas y vientos creo que no pasaría mucho. No se si lo tenía ya cuando la Filomena o aún no pero da igual porque hace 2 años lo dejé sin regar 3 semanas en verano (falló la batería del sistema de riego) y resucitó sin problemas.

Agua y un poco de wano, hierro, ... y fuera.

in reply to fanta 🐌

Muchas gracias. Estamos buscando algo para la terraza de casa que nos tape un poco la vista de los vecinos y ese bambú parece perfecto, aunque si en otoño pierde las hojas se tiene que quedar bien feo... A ver si me acuerdo de pedirte una foto cuando se le caigan, para ver qué aspecto tiene.
in reply to fanta 🐌

Me estoy planteando muy seriamente poner algo parecido en mi terraza y así quitar la ocultación plasticosa que dejó puesta el anterior dueño.

Das Bild zeigt einen Mann mit langen, dunklen Haaren und einem dichten Bart. Er trägt ein dunkles Jackett über einem dunkelblauen Hemd. In seiner linken Hand hält er ein großes, mittelalterliches Äxte mit einem Kreuz am Schaft. Der Hintergrund ist unscharf, aber man kann ein blaues Banner mit weißen Buchstaben erkennen. Der Mann hat einen ernsten Gesichtsausdruck und blickt nach rechts.

You don't see Abit boards much anymore though, so there must be something to the meme.

Maybe someone who knows a bit more about #ComputerHardware can tell me this, because I've been wondering lately...

Why has no one made a #GPU with upgradable #RAM slots? Like, that seems to be the number one issue with older GPUs, nothing else. I understand why Nvidia doesn't do it, because they are purposefully holding back #VRAM to force obsolescence, but why has no one else tried this?

It seems to me like you could just put a DDR5 SODIMM slot, or two on a higher end card, and let people upgrade later...

10 Haunting Sculptures by Philip Jackson


From cloaked figures with hidden faces to elongated women draped in textured gowns, the sculptures of Philip Henry Christopher Jackson transform landscapes into theatrical stages. Seen in ruins, gardens, and historic courtyards, his creations carry masks

From cloaked figures with hidden faces to elongated women draped in textured gowns, the sculptures of Philip Henry Christopher Jackson transform landscapes into theatrical stages. Seen in ruins, gardens, and historic courtyards, his creations carry masks of gold and robes of shadow, leaving viewers caught between awe and unease.


This collection brings together some of his most striking works, including installations in the UK’s historic sites and lush outdoor settings.

🔗 Follow Philip Jackson on Instagram


Three faceless figures in heavy cloaks stand together, one hand cast in shining gold. Placed against ancient stone ruins, the work evokes mystery and ritual.

A tall figure sits in quiet thought, her massive curved headdress edged in gold. The textured surface of her gown contrasts with the smooth mask, blending elegance with abstraction.

Three towering figures with sharp, angular headdresses rise from the grass, their hands and masks gleaming gold. The open field setting heightens their monumental presence.

A solitary figure with folded arms and a golden mask leans against the backdrop of a stone church wall. The elongated robe roots the sculpture to the ground, giving it a commanding stance.

A seated figure with a wide circular headdress gazes outward from a black bench. The golden mask reflects sunlight, adding drama to the garden landscape.

Several cloaked figures in dark robes and gold masks gather outside a cathedral, paired with a seated counterpart nearby. Together, they evoke a scene of silent ritual.

This silver-toned figure stands tall in a gown detailed with a line of golden buttons. The sculpture combines grace with strength through its rigid stance and geometric headdress.

A figure sits among trees, her angular headdress casting shadow over her face. The surface texture of her gown adds depth, blending sculpture with the woodland environment.

Two seated figures in theatrical robes share a bench, their golden masks peering out from beneath angular headdresses. The backdrop of historic stone walls amplifies their dramatic presence.

The Glass Slipper — A silver figure in a flowing dress steps forward with one leg extended, placed at the edge of a pond beneath an arched trellis. The wide headdress frames the figure dramatically against the greenery.

Just released Drum Machine v1.5.0 and I'm excited.

You can finally export your beats as audio files! WAV, FLAC, OGG, MP3. Plus, you can add metadata like artist name, song title, and cover art. You can also set how many times your pattern repeats. So if you make a short 4-bar loop, you can export it as a 3 minute track!

I would love to hear what you create with it, so please tag me if you share your beats anywhere ❤

Today’s cassette tape is Lovin’ Every Minute of It (1985) by Loverboy.

This one is mostly remembered for the hit single This Could Be the Night, which climbed all the way to #10 on Billboard. But the whole album is packed with high-energy hard rock that occasionally drifts into full-on hair metal territory.

I’ve always had a soft spot for Loverboy. They were never the coolest band, but they had a playful streak that made them fun. Plus, they’re a hometown act—straight out of Vancouver, Canada.

This particular cassette shows its age. The case is scuffed, the plastic scratched, and the tape itself has a couple of quick dropouts. Still, it’s a blast to throw on while out walking, imperfections and all.
