The image features a religious icon, likely of the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child, set within a dark wooden frame. The icon is adorned with intricate silver detailing and a richly patterned background. The central figures are depicted in a traditional style, with the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child close to her chest. The icon's surface is highly reflective, suggesting a metallic finish. The text at the top of the image reads, "Once you see Cookie Monster, you can't unsee it." This text is juxtaposed with the icon, creating a humorous contrast between the sacred imagery and the reference to the popular children's character.

The icon is adorned with intricate silver detailing and a blue headpiece, with the child nestled against the mother's shoulder. The background is a rich, ornate pattern, possibly a wall or paneling, with a dark blue banner at the top containing white text that reads, "Once you see Cookie Monster, you can't unsee it." The text is a humorous juxtaposition, suggesting that the iconic image of the Cookie Monster is so memorable that it becomes impossible to unsee.

The image shows three children standing on a paved path in a park-like setting with green grass and trees in the background. The child on the left is wearing a blue cap, a blue shirt, and red shorts with anchor patterns, holding a fish in front of their face. The middle child is wearing a Spider-Man themed cap, a long-sleeved shirt with a shark graphic and the text "BEWARE OF SHARKS," and blue shorts with a palm tree pattern, also holding a fish in front of their face. The child on the right is wearing a black cap, a black shirt with a green design, and multicolored shorts, holding a fish in their mouth. Above the children, the text reads "Every family has one."

Do you know how many times I've written a script that was really only run once? Never. It has never happened across my entire career. Every single thing I've ever written has been fucking welded into the soul of every organisation I've ever worked at. They'll never get rid of any of it. My sins will echo for eternity, and I will be damned if I let anyone else get away with what I have. I will send you straight to hell and meet you there.

Spreadsheets have one good location in a process: at the top.

They can be directly used as database clients, to good effect.

The Macro-laden sheets I passed around mainly had a "refresh" button, so they didn't have to know to right-click on the pivot table report and pick "refresh" from the database.

On rare occasions, they could also be used to put something into a database, as long as it was manually confirmed for every record.

They can have huge roles in NON-automated updates.

O Arch vai ter que esperar.

Minha condição já me fez esquecer de dar atenção para as pessoas e seres à minha volta.

As pessoas acham que hiperfoco trata-se de estar concentrado em algo. Não, é algo que beira à obsessão e se não for gerenciado vai embora tua vida social, descanso e tudo o mais.

A imagem mostra um cão de pelagem clara, possivelmente um Pinscher, sentado em uma cama coberta por uma manta vermelha e uma manta com estampa floral. O cão tem olhos grandes e expressivos, com as orelhas eretas e atentas. Ele está olhando para a câmera com uma expressão curiosa. A parede ao fundo é de cor clara, com um interruptor de luz e uma tomada elétrica visíveis. A composição da imagem destaca o cão, que parece estar em um ambiente doméstico, possivelmente em um quarto.

This is what the NY Times chose to highlight from the Netanyahu/Trump meeting, compared to Al Jazeera.

You decide which is the important news.






Any Democratic Presidential primary candidate that wants my vote has to say they are going to use all these unilateral Presidential powers bestowed by SCOTUS for Trump/DOGE to fully dismantle ICE, radically restructure DHS, mass house cleaning of people placed in Executive Branch orgs under Trump and start going after private right wing organizations with the same vengeance Trump has gone after universities, private companies, etc. I want nothing less. No mealy mouth “reaching across the aisle” and/or “return to normalcy”. They killed any possibility of going back. It’s only powering forward using the same tools to shape the future they have been using. If we don’t the only form of the future we will get is this White Christian Nationalist vision Trump/MAGA are moving forward with. #uspoli #rant reuters.com/legal/litigation/u…

Because otherwise you’re perfectly fine to maintain the status quo? Or will you be voting for team Elon?

@Brad Koehn ☑️ I was referring to during the primaries. In the general it's going to be blue no matter who. I'm going to fight tooth and nail to make sure we don't have some empty suit jack off though. That's for damn sure. And remember, wherever we are in 2028 is going to be "status quo". So if there is a Democrat saying they want to maintain the "status quo" then god help us if they win the nomination.

Internal Slack message: OpenAI has hired four high-profile engineers from Tesla, xAI, and Meta, including David Lau, former VP of software engineering at Tesla (Wired)

Politische Pornografie

Nach der Speichelleckerei auf dem NATO-Gipfel dachten ja viele, dass Obszönitäten in Sachen Trump kaum noch zu überbieten seien. Benjamin Netanjahu hat den Gegenbeweis angetreten. Er hat den vorläufigen Jahrhundertrekord der politischen Pornografie aufgestellt – den “Deep Throat” völkerrechtswidriger Vertreibung von Menschen.

Man muss sich die Tatsachen einmal vergegenwärtigen: Ein mit internationalem Haftbefehl vom internationalen Gerichtshof in Den Haag verfolgter Kriegsverbrecher schlägt einen Verfassungsbrecher, Wiederholungstäter sexueller Übergriffe auf Frauen, Begnadiger von Terroristen gegen die US-Verfassung und rechtswidrigen Deportierer von Migranten ohne Gerichtsurteil und unter Bruch des Verfassungsrechts für den Friedensnobelpreis vor.

Eine Dreistigkeit besonderer Güte

Einem Land wie Norwegen und einem Nobelpreiskommittee, die sich noch ganz anders als Deutschland auf die Einhaltung internationalen Rechts und des internationalen Gerichtshofs stützt. Welche Chuzpe! Um dann im Anschluss daran einem gebauchpinselten Trump unter den Augen der Öffentichkeit und ohne dessen Widerspruch unterzujubeln, dass Israel keine Selbstverwaltung der Palästinensern in einem eigenen Staat mehr dulden möchte. Zwei-Staaten-Lösung adé also – mal so nebenbei und Trump ist eh zu sehr von Eitelkeit geblendet, um direkt zu kontern, selbst wenn er es gewollt oder auch nur bemerkt hätte.

Wo bleibt die Reaktion Europas?

Bei allen “Dönekes” und Geschichten um die rechtsextremistischen Präsidenten der USA und Israels: Was ist eigentlich die Reaktion der EU-Ratspräsidentin auf diese skandalösen und verabscheuungswürdigen Selbstinszenierungen dieser beiden gewaltaffinen Böcke? Wäre nicht eine EU-Ratspräsidentin von der Leyen, wenn sie den Mumm hätte, prädestiniert, den beiden Rechtsbeugern zu widersprechen und moralisch heimzuleuchten und damit die EU auch international merkbar zu positionieren? Geht das wirklich nur in Sachen Ukraine-Krieg und Waffenlieferungen? Wer kann schweigen, wenn die Geiseln der Hamas immer noch nicht frei sind und stattdessen Frauen und Kinder im Gazastreifen täglich Opfer des Krieges zwischen Israel und der Hamas werden? Tun Sie was, Frau EU!

Stability improvements? On my Thinkpad with Debian (Mint), Filen-Desktop regularly dies after a number of suspend-resume cycles. And it dies quietly and secretly: you only ever notice it because important files that you have stored in the directory to be synchronised are then missing when you are on the move. This notorious unreliability is the reason why filing has so far only been used as a "backup of the backup".
