Lo so benissimo che della #Georgia non fotte un cazzo a nessuno. Questi post servono a me per evitare di essere seguito (e commentato) dai #PPP. La putinizzazione del regime di #Tbilisi richiede una forte risposta europea (e italiana) - Linkiesta.it linkiesta.it/2025/12/georgia-p…
Secondo la Lega, solo chi è di sinistra potrebbe pensare che chi preferisce presentarsi con una mazzetta di contanti al posto di effettuare un bonifico tracciabile potrebbe ambire ad evadere le tasse.

Footage circulating online appears to show russian troops entering the outskirts of Pokrovsk on horseback, as heavy fighting continues around the city, according to the OSINT community Supernova+, which posted the video on December 16.

Ogni giorno, dalla Palestina occupata arrivano numeri che scorrono rapidi, lisci, senza attrito. “Dozzine di morti”. Una formula mobile, impersonale, che non trattiene nulla.
Poi accade un fatto altrove. A Bondi Beach. Australia. Quindici morti. Il numero viene inciso, pronunciato con lentezza, ripetuto. Quindici volti, quindici storie. Quindici è un numero che si può contare con le dita. Dozzine no. Dozzine è già oblio. Normalità.
Non è una sfumatura linguistica. È una bilancia truccata che pesa il dolore a seconda del passaporto, del colore della pelle, della latitudine. Quando i morti palestinesi diventano “dozzine”, smettono di essere persone. Non interrompono i palinsesti. Non pretendono lutto.
Il linguaggio non descrive soltanto la realtà: la disciplina. Decide chi merita un nome e chi può restare cifra indistinta. Decide quali vite sono raccontabili e quali sono scarti statistici. Non serve mentire. Basta arrotondare. Basta spingere i corpi dentro parole molli.
Quindici morti a Bondi Beach sono una ferita. Dozzine di morti a Gaza sono una routine. E la routine, si sa, non indigna. Si registra. Si archivia. Si passa oltre.
Questo doppio livello del racconto è il cuore della complicità. È la forma lucida della disumanizzazione. Nessuno dice che quei morti valgono meno. Lo si fa capire. Lo si insegna ogni giorno, titolo dopo titolo, lancio dopo lancio.
Chi controlla le parole controlla il perimetro dell’empatia. E quando l’empatia viene dosata, il massacro diventa sostenibile.
Finché accetteremo che “dozzine” basti a raccontare una strage, continueremo a vivere dentro una grammatica coloniale del dolore. E quella grammatica uccide due volte: la prima con le armi, la seconda con il silenzio ordinato delle redazioni.
Una fotografía tomada desde un ángulo bajo mirando hacia arriba a través de un dosel de árboles hacia un cielo claro y soleado. En primer plano, hay una valla de metal amarilla y verde y algunas mesas y sillas. Varios árboles altos y frondosos se extienden hacia arriba, creando una red de hojas y ramas contra el cielo azul. El sol brilla a través de los árboles, creando un intenso rayo de luz en el centro de la imagen. Un árbol alto y delgado se alza a la derecha, y se puede ver una estructura similar a un puente o torre en la distancia, parcialmente oscurecida por los árboles.

Regarding the last boost, I am not informed enough to know whether the increases in RAM prices are affecting other components, but I can attest to a recent explosion in hard drive prices. I've seen folks blame the AI industry, which I'm sure deserves it, but there are probably several factors at play.
Years ago, I want to say circa 2017, I started buying 4 Tbyte external USB hard drives because I had access to several low-power NUCs and this was an easy, low-cost way for me to make a resilient, high-capacity storage cluster, one I still use today and am quite happy with. 4 Tbyte was the "elbow" at the time, meaning the lowest dollar-per-terabyte. However, they were also the least expensive: I picked up many of these for $20-$40.
Today, the same drives are going for $140 at retailers like NewEgg. You can find some for slightly cheaper if you hunt around, and if you're willing to risk refurbished drives you can find them for a bit cheaper still. But from what I can tell you're still looking at $100-ish per drive. That's an increase of 2.5x-7x over the price eight years ago for a component that by conventional logic would have come down in price significantly in that period.
I guess if I were a filthy capitalist I'd consider selling off my hard drives for a 2.5-7x ROI, but I'm more into use value than exchange value.
(by the way, this post is not an invitation to critique my hardware choices, suggest alternatives, or compare notes about "home labs").

A digitally created image depicts a fishbowl with a fish swimming inside, all rendered in shades of orange and black with white outlining. The fishbowl is oval-shaped, filled with a dark orange, speckled pattern that resembles a galaxy or nebula, and has a white outline defining its edge. Inside the bowl, a single fish with a detailed scale pattern and visible fins swims towards the right. The bowl appears to be dripping a thick, viscous liquid from its base, outlined in white. The background is a solid orange, slightly lighter in tone than the fishbowl, creating a vibrant, stylized composition.

Members of solidarity with Cuba in El Salvador today delivered the first 100 intraocular lenses for cataract operations to the Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology Ramón Pando Ferrer in Havana.
The donation includes not only intraocular lenses, but also includes expendable materials necessary for this type of surgical intervention, according to a statement sent to this office by the Cuban representation here presided over by Ambassador Tomás Lorenzo.
The image is a black background with a cartoon illustration and bold green and white text. On the left side of the image is a cartoon character with a white face, large black eyes, and a mischievous expression. The character is wearing a tall, striped green and white hat and a blue bow tie. To the right and below the character is the text "I WILL DRINK COFFEE HERE OR THERE I WILL DRINK COFFEE EVERYWHERE," with "COFFEE" appearing in large, bold, orange letters. The overall design has a playful and whimsical feel.

DiscogsDienstag: Joy Division – The Peel Sessions (Dezember 1979)
Joy Division haben im Laufe ihrer kurzen Karriere zwei Peel Sessions aufgenommen, beide im Jahr 1979 und der Zufall wollte es, dass ich die letzte Session zuerst vorstelle. Sie wurde am 26.11.1979 in den Maida Vale Studios in London aufgenommen und am 10.12.1979 gesendet. Joy Division nahmen vier Lieder auf, die sie bis dahin nur live gespielt hatten und von denen noch keine Studioaufnahmen existierten. Das hatten sie bei der ersten Peel Session auch so gehandhabt. Die Songs der zweiten Session waren „Twenty-Four Hours“, „Colony“, „Sound Of Music“ und „Love Will Tear Us Apart“. Produziert wurde die Session von ihrem Manager Tony Wilson (1950 – 2007), der auch Inhaber des legendären Labels Factory Records war. Veröffentlicht wurde die Peel Session 1987 auf dem eigenen Label von John Peel, Strange Fruit Records.
„Love Will Tear Us Apart“ und „Twenty-Four Hours“ bilden die A-Seite der EP, „Colony“ und „Sound Of Music“ die B-Seite. „Love Will Tear Us Apart“ blieb ein Non-Album-Track, die Versionen der 7″- und 12″-Singles wurden am 08.01.1980 und Anfang März 1980 neu aufgenommen. „Twenty-Four Hours“ und „Colony“ kamen auf das zweite Album „Closer“, das in der zweiten März-Hälfte aufgenommen wurde, dabei sang Ian Curtis auch „Love Will Tear Us Apart“ neu ein. „The Sound Of Music“ schließlich schaffte es in der Aufnahme vom 08.01.1980 auf die Compilation „Still“, auf der alle unveröffentlichten Studioaufnahmen sowie das letzte Konzert von Joy Division vom 02.05.1980 und einige weitere Liveaufnahmen zu finden sind. „Still“ erschien am 09.10.1981, genau wie „Love Will Tear Us Apart“ (Juni 1980) und „Closer“ (18.07.1980) postum, denn Sänger Ian Curtis nahm sich am 18.05.1980 das Leben, am Vortag der geplanten Abreise für ihre erste USA-Tour. Er wurde nur 23 Jahre alt.
