Interview: "Deadly US Strike on Venezuelan Boat Raises Fears of Wider War"
"Trump claimed, without evidence, that the boat was carrying narcotics from Venezuela to the US."
“It was pure murder", says Greg Grandin.
"It’s bringing the logic of Gaza into the Caribbean" in terms of unaccountability, impunity & a defense notion to justify what is, in effect, just extrajudicial killing.”

Francia se prepara para una huelga destituyente que amenaza con barrer a Bayrou y dejar más tocado a Macron
Un nuevo movimiento nacido online llama a “bloquear todo” a partir del 10 de septiembre, lo que tras la caída del Primer Ministro y reforzado por la huelga intersindical pone en jaque los débiles equilibrios del poder actual.Régis Arriet (El Salto Diario)
New employment numbers out from StatCan, and they're not good. The student numbers are particularly grim. This summer had the third-highest rate of unemployment for students since 1976, with only 1997 and 2020 (due to the pandemic) higher.

Employment declined by 66,000 (-0.3%) in August, largely the result of a decline in part-time work, and the employment rate fell 0.2 percentage points to 60.5%. The unemployment rate rose 0.2 percentage points to 7.1%.www150.statcan.gc.ca

Si è un po' piegato l'arco in un punto in cui c'è del vuoto.
Lunedì telefonerò per sapere se posso andare avanti così fino a ottobre o se devo andare a farlo sistemare.
Stamani mi sono svegliata con una forte emicrania che non passa nonostante la tachipirina.
Non so se dipenda dal problema all'apparecchio.
Comunque non passa.

@rag. Gustavino Bevilacqua @0ciX funziona anche come antidolorifico per alcuni tipi di dolore, e mi risulta anche contro alcune emicranie ma non tutte (e così a memoria come medicinale da banco era quello consigliato, quelli più efficaci contro l'emicrania sono poi con prescrizione, ma non son sicura al 100% di ricordare correttamente)
quindi insomma, serve qualcuno con competenza medica per rispondere

per i (fortunatamente) rarissimi attacchi di emicrania a me l'ibuprofene fa più effetto. di solito prendo 1 ibuprofene da 600 alla comparsa dell'aura, e cui aggiungo un paracetamolo da 1000 qualche ora dopo (e nel frattempo mi stendo al buio e in silenzio).

Höhere Sozialabgaben für Gutverdiener ab Januar geplant
Gutverdienende sollen ab Januar mehr Geld in die Sozialkassen einzahlen. Arbeitsministerin Bas hat eine entsprechende Verordnung auf den Weg gebracht, die noch von der Regierung beschlossen werden muss. Von Jim-Bob Nikschas.
Na, liebe @tagesschau ... wieder für die CxU ... oder gar die AFDumme arbeiten?
Das ist die ganz normale Anpassung ... REGELMÄSSIG ... ALLE JAHR WIEDER ... an ein steigendes Lohn-Niveau.
"Niveau" ... das ist das weiß bei euch sinkt ...
Schön, dass es einen Automatismus gibt, um die Abgabenlast für die (gehobene) Mittelschicht zu erhöhen.
Ich würde mir in dem Zusammenhang auch die Wiedereinführung der Vermögenssteuer wünschen.
Aber vermutlich kommt das nie, da die Entscheidenden selbst oder deren Wahlkampfspender betroffen wären.
Aber lasst uns lieber durch die Diskussion über Bürgergeldempfänger davon ablenken, dass Milliardäre in Deutschland so gut wie keine Steuern zahlen.

So wird’s nix. Die offizielle #Pixelfed App für die private, coprfreie und adfreie Alternative gibt’s nicht direkt im F-Droid-Store und verlinkt direkt auf den Play- und Appstore?
Augenscheinlich gibts wohl en Repository zum Einbinden. Nach 20 Minuten erfolglos aufgegeben.
Was ist so schwer daran, einfach eine Version auf der Website zur Verfügung zu stellen?
Not sure what Neo Store is, but we're working on an official F-Droid repo build, though it's a bit complicated due to some 3rd party libraries we use.
Stay tuned!

I have updated 4.gg/qr.cgi
Should not barf on large QR codes now, and now the images should be saveable (I had to make a img tag with data URL and base64 code SVG rather than just using SVG inline in the HTML!)
And has the QR code abuse examples too now.
reshared this
@kasperd @tripplehelix Indeed, I have seen some "extend the pattern of dots" attempts before, and yes, you can get away with one pixel whitespace usually. You may be able to get away with whitespace only around the targets even.
I have also played with making the padding bytes such that there is a (valid and ECC valid) pattern in the QR image itself.
It’s a Motorola phone, and I downloaded the Barcode Scanner app from Play store.
The way you constructed that QR code is slightly different from the method I imagined, but the result is the same.
If you find it interesting to play with the look of QR codes I have another idea you can try if you think it will be fun. The background for this idea is that at some point I saw somebody had made a heart-shaped QR code, which however was so broken that it was utterly unreadable.
I thought it surely must be possible to do better. And my idea was to do the following:
- First create a completely standard QR code.
- Next draw two semicircles next to the QR code - one to the right and one beneath it.
- Fill each semicircle with random black and white squares to give a visual appearance of a continuation of the grid within the QR code.
- Rotate the image 135⁰ counter-clockwise.
The result will look mostly like a heart shape and contain a fully readable QR code. The visual appearance can be improved by letting the semicircles overlap the white quite-zone of the QR code. Then it will no longer be standards compliant and might become less readable for a phone.
Another way the visual appearance could be improved would be to draw an outline around the whole thing. That outline would need to lie outside the quiet-zone on the two sides of the QR code and the same distance away from the semicircles along the rest of the perimiter.

England is in first place with 10 points, followed by Australia with 8 points, USA with 3 points, and Samoa with 0 points. The USA is highlighted in red, indicating a special status. The interface shows the schedule for Pool A matches, with dates and times for upcoming games, including a match between Australia and the USA scheduled for September 6th at 13:30 and another between England and Australia at 17:00. The "Extended" option is toggled off, and there is a "Qualified" indicator next to England.

Ao fundo, montanhas cobertas de neve se erguem contra um céu azul com algumas nuvens. A vegetação é composta por pequenas plantas de aparência áspera, típicas de regiões áridas. O solo é escuro e irregular, com algumas áreas cobertas de uma fina camada de neve ou sal. O homem está vestido com roupas de frio, incluindo um casaco e um chapéu, e parece estar desfrutando da paisagem.

Das Bild zeigt eine Pflanze in einem terrakottafarbenen Topf, der auf einem weißen Marmorboden steht. Die Pflanze hat grüne, längliche Blätter mit leichten Streifen und ist mit zwei Stäben aus Holz gestützt, um ihr Wachstum zu unterstützen. Der Topf enthält dunkle, feuchte Erde, und die Pflanze scheint gesund und gut gepflegt zu sein. Im Hintergrund ist ein Fenster mit einem Gitter zu sehen, durch das Sonnenlicht hereinfällt. Die Pflanze ist wahrscheinlich ein Vanillepflanze, da sie an die natürlichen Bedürfnisse dieser Pflanze angepasst ist.

It would all depend on the human instructions handed to the AI.
Given that Trump & Hegseth, together with their billionnaire owners (Musk, Thiel, Murdoch, et al), are fascists & likely narcissistic psychopaths, the instructions would run along the lines of:
