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.]

Hmm, I guess the next enhancement on this is to tag the nearest reported recent wildfire name... Now, to remember the GIS query for that. 🤔

I found this band in an open-source music store on a Linux distro in the 2000s and scooped up all the releases I could find. In a lot of ways, they remind me of Level 42, another band I love.
(Edited to include the entire album. So good.)

"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.

need to run a bunch of calculations
lat/lng of camera
do math for every known fire lat/lng
(formula for determining distance between any two points on the earth using lat/lng)
sort by distance away, show the closest (or a couple of the closest... the cameras are often miles away from the fires.)
