Believe it or not, Microsoft just announced a Linux distribution service - here's why
Microsoft is open-sourcing its Linux Integration Services Automation image-testing service for everyone.Steven Vaughan-Nichols (ZDNET)
The image features a close-up view of a vibrant purple flower with long, slender petals radiating outward from a central cluster of darker purple and pinkish stamens. The petals are delicate and have a feathery appearance, with a gradient of color from a lighter shade at the tips to a deeper purple near the base. The flower is surrounded by lush green leaves with visible veins, providing a contrasting backdrop that highlights the flower's vivid color. The leaves are broad and ovate, with some showing minor imperfections such as small holes and spots, indicating natural wear. The overall composition is centered, with the flower occupying the majority of the frame, drawing the viewer's attention to its intricate details and the interplay of colors.

Spese militari dal 2 al 5% del Pil, Tajani scopre le carte e conferma la corsa dell'Italia al riarmo. Ma gli cambia nome in "sicurezza" | LA NOTIZIA

> Il governo spinge verso il 5% del Pil in spese militari, triplicando i fondi per le armi mentre taglia il welfare e aggira il Parlamento
L'immagine presenta un uomo in giacca e cravatta, con un'espressione seria, in primo piano. Sul suo petto è visibile un grande simbolo percentuale (%). Sullo sfondo, si trova la mappa dell'Italia in nero, con un grande setaccio rosso che punta verso l'alto, simboleggiando un aumento. Attorno alla mappa sono presenti vari simboli militari: un missile, un aereo da combattimento, un carro armato e una bomba. Questi elementi suggeriscono un aumento delle spese militari o un aumento del budget militare in Italia. L'immagine utilizza un stile grafico con colori limitati, principalmente beige, nero e rosso, che conferisce un aspetto vintage.

Israel’s bombardment of Gaza has unleashed an invisible yet deadly threat: asbestos.
Millions of tons of rubble, now contaminated by this carcinogenic mineral, expose over two million people, especially children, to lethal health risks.
This goes beyond collateral damage, it's environmental warfare, silently devastating Gaza's present and systematically poisoning its future.

The US helped overthrow Syria's independent government. Now its unelected "president" is the former leader of Al-Qaeda.
Trump had a friendly meeting with this Al-Qaeda extremist, Ahmed al-Sharaa aka Abu Mohammad al-Julani, and praised him as “great”.
Trump said he's a "young, attractive guy. Tough guy. Strong past. Very strong past. Fighter".
Trump vowed to remove the suffocating US sanctions that collapsed the previous Syrian state. The rebranded Al-Qaeda leader promised that Syria will normalize relations with the colonial Israeli regime while it is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. He also pledged to give US corporations control over Syria's natural resources.

Und irgendwann bekommt der Halberstädter seine Griffstangen wieder angebaut 
Das Bild zeigt ein Modellzug der Nord-Ostsee-Bahn, das auf einem Kartonboden mit Klebeband platziert ist. Der Zug ist in Blau, Weiß und Grün lackiert und trägt die Aufschrift "Nord-Ostsee-Bahn" auf der Seite. Er besteht aus mehreren Wagen und ist in einer realistischen Darstellung gestaltet. Im Hintergrund ist ein weißer Wandabschnitt und ein Teil eines Regals mit Büchern zu sehen. Der Zug ist auf einem flachen, kartonierten Untergrund platziert, der mit Klebeband fixiert ist. Die Umgebung wirkt wie ein Raum mit einem schrägen Dach, möglicherweise ein Dachgeschoss.

The number of people who think that running, say, one-tenth of a mile in 30 seconds is equivalent to - or anything close to - running one whole mile in 300 seconds (or 5 minutes)
Is disturbing
Yes, the number of people who can run miles in under 5 minutes is in the tenths (if not hundredths) of a percent
But the number of people who can run 176 meters (a tenth of a mile) in under 30 seconds is probably about half

Watching people use the term "enshittification" with growing frequency. Another term for that is "blight."
Here's an article I wrote about how to make things work for people in the era of social media blight.
Corey Doctorow (@pluralistic) popularized the term "enshittification" referring to the deliberate lifecycle of online platforms: "first, the platform allocates surpluses to end-users; then, once users are locked in, those surpluses are taken away and given to business-customers. Once the advertisers, publishers, sellers, creators and performers are locked in, the surplus is clawed away from them and taken by the platform."

L'immagine mostra un uomo in un contesto formale, probabilmente durante un evento pubblico. Indossa un abito blu scuro, una camicia bianca e una cravatta grigia, con un'espressione leggermente sorridente. Le luci di sfondo, con un effetto bokeh, suggeriscono un palco o una scena, con luci blu e gialle che creano un'atmosfera solenne. L'uomo ha i capelli corti e grigi, e indossa occhiali con montatura scura. La sua postura è eretta, e sembra essere in un momento di pausa o di ascolto.
