Aggiornamento Ben Askren: è vigile. “Sono morto quattro volte, ma ce l’ho fatta”
Ben Askren ha condiviso un aggiornamento toccante sulle sue condizioni di salute dopo mesi di silenzio, raccontando la drammatica esperienza vissuta tra maggio e luglio. In un video pubblicato sui suoi canali social (al momento della pubblicazione FB è ancora fermo al post di marzo e IG è non raggiungibile – instagram.com/benaskren/ ) , l’ex lottatore UFC ha spiegato di aver subito un doppio trapianto di polmoni e il coma durato un mese.
“Non vi aggiorno da un po’ e penso che ve lo meritiate,” ha detto Askren nel video. “Ho appena letto il diario di mia moglie perché non ricordo nulla dal 28 maggio al 2 luglio. Nessun ricordo. Nessuna idea di cosa sia successo. È come un film, una cosa assurda.”
Askren ha poi rivelato un dettaglio scioccante: “Sono morto quattro volte, il mio cuore si è fermato per circa 20 secondi. Non è l’ideale, lo sapete bene. Ma ho ricevuto un doppio trapianto di polmoni e sono riuscito a superarlo. Sto recuperando forza, sto imparando di nuovo a usare tutto. Ieri mi sono pesato: 147 libbre (66,6 kg). Non ero così leggero da quando avevo 15 anni. Ho perso 50 libbre (oltre 22 kg) in 45 giorni. È stata una battaglia. Ovviamente non ricordo quasi nulla.”
Dal video si vede che è messo ancora molto male
Ricordo che L’assicurazione non ha coperto l’operazione e che i soldi e che ha avuto i due milioni necessari grazie alle donazioni. Jake Paul (che con Askren ci ha combattuto sul ring) non più tardi di una settimana fa ha detto che era disgustoso che Dana White non avessa dato una mano e ha promesso di farlo lui…
Durante l’aggiornamento, Askren si è commosso parlando del supporto ricevuto: “La cosa che mi ha colpito di più è stato tutto l’amore che ho sentito. È stato come se avessi potuto assistere al mio stesso funerale. Ricordo ancora, 30 anni fa, quando Dave Schultz morì: tutti raccontavano quanto lo avevano amato. Ma lui non ha mai potuto ascoltarlo. Io sì.”
“L’affetto della comunità della lotta è stato incredibile. È stato meraviglioso. Ora sono più motivato che mai a restituire qualcosa, a fare la mia parte. Vi voglio bene, vi ringrazio. È stato difficile, non solo per me, ma per tutta la mia famiglia e la mia comunità. Spero che apprezziate questo aggiornamento. Magari, un giorno, io e Amy potremo raccontare tutto nei dettagli.”
Ben Askren, ex campione Bellator e ONE Championship, ha chiuso la sua carriera da professionista con un record di 19 vittorie, 2 sconfitte e un No Contest. Il suo ultimo incontro in MMA risale all’ottobre del 2019.
Ho alcuni print screen del video, ma sono davvero strazianti, ho preferito quindi prendere il video della sua biografia degli anni del Wrestling:

O tweet, escrito em português, afirma que qualquer medida de elevação de tarifas de forma unilateral será respondida à luz da Lei brasileira de Reciprocidade Econômica. Ele destaca a soberania, o respeito e a defesa intransigente dos interesses do povo brasileiro como valores que orientam a relação do Brasil com o mundo.

O tweet afirma que a informação sobre um suposto déficit comercial entre o Brasil e os Estados Unidos é falsa.

O tweet aborda a rejeição da sociedade brasileira a conteúdos de ódio, racismo, pornografia infantil, golpes, fraudes, discursos contra os direitos humanos e a liberdade democrática nas plataformas digitais. Ele enfatiza que, no Brasil, a liberdade de expressão não se confunde com agressão ou práticas violentas, e que todas as empresas, nacionais e estrangeiras, estão submetidas à legislação brasileira.

A imagem mostra um tweet do perfil oficial de Lula ([@]LulaOficial) com um fundo dividido em quatro cores: verde, amarelo, azul e vermelho, que representam as cores da bandeira do Brasil. O tweet é uma resposta à manifestação pública do presidente norte-americano Donald Trump, publicada em uma rede social na tarde da quarta-feira (9). O texto destaca que o Brasil é um país soberano com instituições independentes que não aceitarão ser tutelados por ninguém. Além disso, o tweet afirma que o processo judicial contra aqueles que planejaram o golpe de estado é de competência apenas da Justiça Brasileira e, portanto, não está sujeito a qualquer tipo de interferência ou ameaça que fira a independência das instituições nacionais.

While looking for something else, I just found a blog post about Diaspora I wrote in 2012;
But what I was really pleased to stumble upon is the post I wrote in 2019 about replacing FarceBook;
This one is definitely going to get an update-and-repost on the new Disintermedia blog.
EDIT: replaced links, hopefully this won't slashdot archive.today sites ...
> Really glad you got it sorted
For those 2. My long term plan is to move the Disintermedia blog to a community-hosted service (Ghost is a favourite but I'm still evaluating options).
When it comes time, I'll try to write a bash script that goes through the most complete archive of the CoActivate version, copies each post into the new one. Bonus extra; change each timestamp so it's correct according to the original publication date. Double bonus: do the same for the SubStack version.
Wie Fediverse-Reactions und Avatare in WordPress zusammenhängen
Einen Punkt habe ich in meinem vorigen Beitrag über Folgefragen nach dem Verbinden eines WordPress-Blogs mit dem Fediverse noch nicht behandelt: Die Abhängigkeit der Anzeige der Fediverse-Reactions von den generellen Avatar-Einstellungen in WordPress. Das ist auch ein bisschen komplexer und damit einen eigenen Beitrag wert:
Gravatar und Datenschutz
WordPress holt sich standardmäßig die Avatare zu normalen Kommentaren von gravatar.com. Hat dort jemand keinen Avatar eingerichtet, erscheint stattdessen in WordPress-Kommentaren der Platzhalter, den man unter Einstellungen > Diskussion definiert hat.
Da das mit gravatar.com nicht datenschutzfreundlich ist, wird dazu geraten, ein Plugin wie Avatar Privacy zu verwenden. Oder Avatare an oben genannter Stelle einfach ganz zu deaktivieren.
Überall zulassen oder gar keine?
Wer Avatare komplett abschaltet, ist dann zwar das Datenschutzproblem in WordPress los, bekommt aber Folgeprobleme:
- Der zum Beitrag gehörige Autorenavatar wird auch nicht mehr angezeigt
- Fediverse-Reactions werden nicht angezeigt
Das Problem mit dem Autorenavatar lässt sich beheben, indem ich ein Plugin wie One User Avatar benutze. Damit kann ich für jedes Benutzerprofil einen lokalen Avatar hochladen.
Das Problem mit den Fediverse-Reactions behebt das aber nicht.
Alles gut, dank Blockthemes
Um die Fediverse-Reactions anzeigen zu können, müssen Avatare also erlaubt sein. Da man mit den o.g. Plugins dafür nicht weiterkommt, bleibt nur eins und das geht dank Blockthemes kinderleicht: den Platzhalter für Avatare aus dem Kommentartemplate komplett entfernen! Hier also nochmal die Konstellation, wie ich sie hier verwende:
- Avatare in WordPress-Einstellungen unter Diskussion zulassen, damit Fediverse-Reaktionen und Autorenavatare dargestellt werden können
- One User Avatar installieren, um Autorenavatare darstellen zu können, ohne das zu Gravatar gefunkt wird
- Platzhalter für Kommentar-Avatare löschen (oder Avatar Privacy installieren), um zu verhindern, dass für Kommentar-Avatare zu Gravatar gefunkt wird.
Wie handhabst Du das in Deinem Blog?
Gravatar mit Datenschutz
Das Plugin »Avatar Privacy« ermöglicht es, Gravatare in WordPress einzusetzen, ohne den in der DSGVO geforderten Datenschutz zu verletzen. Perfekt.Peter Müller (Einstieg in WordPress)
Trump begründet Zölle für Brasilien mit "Hexenjagd" gegen Bolsonaro
Auch Brasilien hat nun Post von US-Präsident Trump mit den neuen Zollbestimmungen bekommen. Das Land soll auf die Einfuhr von Produkten in die USA den bislang höchsten Wert von 50 Prozent zahlen - und zwar aus innenpolitischen Gründen.
Trump wird doch nicht seinen Nachahmer in Stich lassen. Erinnert sei an "Sturm auf das Kapitol in Washington 2021 vs. Sturm auf Kongress in Brasilia 2023"

Yes, I know, but they needn't worry -- I will die and their eugenicist framework may hasten that. And as that existential philosopher Joni Ernst said, "well all die."

There's still a lot of work to be done, both in the public API and internally, but progress continues.

Jump Drive on Boardgamearena.com is so addictive! It's a very streamlined version of Race for the Galaxy, one of my all-time favorite #boardgames. The solo mode has you running a "campaign", where you try to beat certain scores in certain ways. You can easily run a campaign in about 30 minutes. I fell 1 point short of winning the easiest campaign. Love it!
The image shows a screenshot from a digital board game interface. The top section displays player information and game progress. The player "jdarnold" has a score of -1, with 5 cubes, 8 points, 7 cards, and +8 dollars. The "Outreach" section lists victory conditions: "Great Victory" (60 VPs), "Military Victory" (50 VPs and +8), "Peaceful Victory" (50 VPs; may not use +? to place worlds), and "Discovery Victory" (45 VPs and must Explore at least once). The game has ended in a defeat, as indicated by the message "End of game: End of game (defeat)".
The middle section shows the player's hand, with cards like "Rosetta Stone World," "Avian Uplift Race," "Rebel Miners," "Adaptable Uplift Race," "Convict Miners," "Investment Credits," and "Space Marines." The bottom section displays "jdarnold's tableau," featuring cards such as "Mining Robots," "Asteroid Belt," "Pirate Fuel Cache," "Reptilian Uplift World," "Alien Robot Sentry," and "Rebel Outpost." The interface includes options like "Return to main site," "Propose a rematch," "Play again," and "Return to table list." The bottom navigation bar offers links to "How to play," "Competition," "Strategy tips," "Options," and "Credits."

Control Panel 1.0 -
Pour célébrer la naissance de mon enfant, j'ai brodé le panneau de contrôle du premier Macintosh.
À partir d'une capture d'écran, j'ai créé le modèle à broder, en mettant son nom dans la barre de titre, sa date et son poids de naissance. J'ai mis plusieurs mois à le réaliser, et il est né quelques semaines avant que j'arrive à le terminer, ce qui tombe bien parce que je devait de toute façon attendre la naissance pour les informations de dernière minute.
Je suis impatiente de partager un jour avec lui l'origine de cette œuvre de Susan Kare.

in reply to This spaceship does not exist • • •The image depicts a futuristic landscape with a large, glowing yellow sun partially visible on the horizon, casting a warm light across the scene. The sky is a gradient of dark green to blue, dotted with stars, suggesting a night sky. The foreground features a vast, flat expanse with a grid-like pattern, possibly a cityscape or industrial area, with bright blue lines running parallel, resembling train tracks or pathways. On either side of this expanse, there are rocky formations with jagged edges, and structures that appear to be part of a futuristic city or industrial complex. The overall color palette includes dark greens, blues, and yellows, creating a contrast between the natural and artificial elements. The scene is devoid of any visible life forms or vehicles, emphasizing the vastness and isolation of the environment.
