mattonando gli acquisti ma non con troppi soldini
Qualche attimo fa, pur di non andare a dormire ad un orario giusto, stavo cercando mattoni economici online… per costruzioni, non lo so, per commettere Minecraft nella vita reale… e sono stata alquanto delusa.

mattonando gli acquisti ma non con troppi soldini
Qualche attimo fa, pur di non andare a dormire ad un orario giusto, stavo cercando mattoni economici online… per costruzioni, non lo so, per commettere Minecraft nella vita reale… e sono stata alquanto delusa. Ok, no, sto scherzando… ma su Amazon ho trovato letteralmente 1 solo prodotto che rispecchiasse il mio desiderio pienamente, ed è estremamente costoso (come tra l’altro suggerisce l’unica recensione con acquisto verificato, che però comunque li valuta a 4 stelle per la qualità); cioè, regà, 33 euro per 10 mattoni non è cosa, nonostante la spedizione gratuita. Quindi, via subito sull’altro sito. 🇨🇳🐉
Allora, su AliExpress, invece, di mattoni non ne trovo affatto (magari sarà eccessivamente costoso spedirli dalla Cina?). Grande amarezza, ma in compenso ho trovato qualcosa di meglio: taccuini a forma di mattone… taccuini da 640 pagine!!! Sono subito saltata, perché è assurdo che qualcuno abbia anche solo mai potuto immaginare un prodotto del genere; figurarsi averlo messo sul mercato, e per giunta con un’estetica così carina e invitante! Sapete perfettamente cosa sto per dire a questo punto… è a tutti gli effetti un fottutissimo tomo (o, “sembra un piccolo libro”, direbbe la gente posh nelle recensioni). No però, oh, sul serio, è incredibile… sospetto un po’ scomodo da usare, perché è un A6, quindi con ben 320 fogli si terrà un botto alto dalla superficie di scrittura, e la mano finirà quindi schiacciata nello spigolo… ma chi lo ha comprato è molto contento; ha una media di 4,9 stelle questo affare. E navigando se ne trovano anche altri, persino A4, sempre con questo magico numero di 320 fogli (…non di più, per qualche motivo), anche se meno bellini e con carta in genere più sottile! 😤🤯
Come mattoncino, comunque, questo quadernino andrebbe più che bene… è vero che è fatto di alberi anziché di laterizio, ma tanto comunque io fin dal principio non sono in condizione di rispettare il codice edilizio, e quindi, che uso i mattoni, o che uso i quaderni spessi, non cambia alla fine della fiera assolutamente nulla; in entrambi i casi, o quello che andrò a realizzare crollerà da solo in poco tempo, o comunque arriveranno le forze dell’ordine a mettere i sigilli… ma quello che importa è avere la mentalità giusta, e ricordare che il gioco è bello proprio finché dura poco. (Specialmente per quanto riguarda le costruzioni; questo è stato inculcato a forza nella mente di ogni bambino fin dalla prima infanzia, andando a generare non pochi microtraumi…) 🥰…Il motivo per cui non ho riempito il carrello con più unità di questo affare di quante un intero camion ne possa trasportare, allora, è che… a 12 fottuti euro per quaderno (visto che con lo sconto di benvenuto ne potrei prendere solo uno a 86 centesimi, ma il resto si paga intero), è ancora peggio dei mattoni veri. E, a questo punto, visto che sono pur sempre molto tirchia, vado a scavare un po’ di pietra in miniera, così già che ci sono risolvo anche l’altro mio problema (detto “mine-yearning“)… e, forse, mi restano soldi per corrompere eventuali autorità che verranno a distruggere i miei sogni. 😳🙏

Anticipating the public's reaction, Google has earlier this year closed the open development of AOSP, now only posting it when its done. And they just have removed all pixel drivers that they once released without issue alongside AOSP.
They are at best a hostile partner to AOSP. And I'm sure they are working on other ways to sabotage AOSP. So be prepared for more drama.
Chapagetti Jjajang noodles for dinner

Our dog *HATES* having her claws trimmed, to the point that we almost never do it because she fights it so hard she could easily hurt us or herself by accident. So one bucket lid, some industrial strength Velcro, and a pack of Velcro backed drywall sandpaper pads later: puppy nail file!
I need to get some rubber feet for it, or something, so that it won’t move around as she scratches it, but even if we need to hold it in place for her (which might actually be easier as we train her to use it), it will be a huge improvement over trying to use the clippers.
The image shows a blue plastic lid and a circular sanding pad placed on a wooden surface. The blue lid has a circular shape with a central raised area and four black rectangular pads attached to its underside, likely for grip or protection. The sanding pad is round, dark gray, and appears to have a coarse texture suitable for sanding. The wooden surface has visible grain patterns and some minor scratches, indicating it is a workbench or similar surface.

The image depicts a serene park scene with a body of water in the foreground. The water is calm, reflecting the surrounding greenery. On the grassy bank, a bird, possibly a heron, stands near the water's edge, facing away from the camera. The grass is lush and green, with a few patches of brown, indicating a well-maintained area. In the background, there is a parking lot with several cars, including a white van and a black SUV, parked along the side. Trees with dense foliage provide shade, and their branches extend into the frame, adding depth to the scene. The overall atmosphere is peaceful, with the natural elements contrasting against the urban setting.

Israel launches massive airstrikes on Yemen
TEHRAN, Jul. 07 (MNA) – Yemen’s strategic Al-Hudaydah port came under heavy bombardment by the Israeli regime early on Monday, in an attack that could further inflame regional tensions.Mehr News Agency
Ring camera footage captured the moment a massive shootout erupted during a late nite cookout party in Philly. Multiple shooters fired over 1K rounds into a crowd of roughly 40 attendees. Chaos unfolded as people fled in every direction. One individual was taken into custody with a weapon, though their role remains under investigation. Police are working to determine a motive and identify all involved suspects.

Major ambush in Gaza kills 6 Israeli troops, injures 16
Palestinian Resistance fighters carried out a deadly ambush targeting Israeli occupation forces in northern Gaza, late on Monday, reportedly killing at least six Israeli soldiers and wounding 16 others—several of them critically—according to Israeli media outlets.
Some of the killed soldiers were burned to death during the assault. The operation bore a striking resemblance to a previous ambush on June 24, in which seven Israeli troops were killed when Palestinian Resistance fighters targeted an armored combat engineering unit.
