A Palestinian was shot dead Saturday and five others injured by the Israeli army in the occupied West Bank.
“The General Authority for Civil Affairs (liaison body with Israel) informed us of the martyrdom of Nael Samara (36), who was shot by Israeli forces in the town of Bruqin this afternoon,” said the Palestinian Health Ministry.
The ICJ declared Israel's decades-long occupation of Palestinian land illegal last July.

What does your Spotify account say about your music taste?
I was curious – so I built a little app to find out. Using Python, Streamlit and Plotly, I visualised my top tracks, favourite genres and the release years of the songs I listen to most.
What you need:
Access to the Spotify Web API
A bit of Pandas for analysis
A few lines of code with Plotly
Streamlit to build and run the app
→ The result? A personal, interactive music year in review 🎶
I put together a step-by-step guide (beginner-friendly) including code, screenshots, and how to deploy the app on Streamlit Cloud.

nice! I did something like this a while ago with Platypush+Tidal+Last.FM (no Spotify involved) blog.platypush.tech/article/Au…
I didn’t build some fancy visualizations on it, but my priority was to have all the music I listen to from any device, regardless of the client, scrobbled to Last.FM and then pulled from there on my db where I can do all the offline analysis I want.

Will the combination of a reforming Prisons Minister (James Timpson) & a previous (Tory, but liberal) justice secretary (David Gauke) lead to a transformation of sentencing & prison management?
Well, while polls suggest the public may be more supportive of liberal reforms than many Govts have assumed, as Keir Starmer won't move without considering what the right wing press have to say, the attitudes of certain newspapers to proposals will be make or break!

1 enemy UAV is in the air, combat operations are ongoing
Kyiv, Dnipro and Donetsk regions were affected by the enemy attack.

Maybe you or somebody you know has a #Windows10 computer, which works perfectly fine, but will lose support on October 14 because it cannot be updated to Windows 11 for hardware support reasons.
Please, do not turn the computer into unnecessary e-waste but keep using it and give it a new life by installing #Linux on it. There are plenty of advantages in doing so, the biggest one being it's waaaayyy cheaper.

Evidence is mounting that a secret lies beneath the dusty red plains of #Mars, one that could redefine our view of the Red Planet: a vast reservoir of liquid #water, locked deep in the crust.
Mars is covered in traces of ancient bodies of water.
But the puzzle of exactly where it all went when the #planet turned cold and dry has long intrigued scientists.
Seismic data from InSight mission has uncovered evidence that the seismic waves slow down in a layer between 5.4 and 8 kilometres below the surface, which could be because of the presence of liquid water at these depths.

A chi condivide battaglie e risate.
Brindo a voi, per voi, con voi.

#StainedGlass #window in St Ethelbert's Church, Herringswell, #Suffolk U.K. It's a depiction of St. Hubert, patron saint of hunters, archers, and #dogs . St. Hubert (aka Hubertos) is considered to be the originator of ethical hunting behavior for Catholics. His Feast Day is November 3rd.
St. Hubert's story holds that after the death of his wife, the nobleman went to live in the woods. There, he saw a stag with a cross glowing between its horns, and took it as a sign from God.
[Window in memory of Llewellyn Sidney Davies, designed by H.W.Luxford.]
