Every environment is environmental storytelling just most of the stories are very ordinary

Alguém por acaso me sabe explicar a razão porque em Portugal nos últimos dez a 15 anos os prédios novos de apartamentos em urbanizações de luxo têm quase todos varandas com parapeitos de vidro?

Será pelo facto do vidro ser mais barato?

Não existe o perigo daquilo começar a rebentar/partir por tudo quanto é lado quando faz muito calor ou muito vento?

Até que ponto é que uma varanda com um parapeito de vidro é segura tanto para as pessoas nas suas casas como para as pessoas que vão a andar na rua?

Porquê o vidro e não o cimento?

Pessoalmente, não me parece fazer qualquer sentido - mais parecendo uma abominação urbanística do que outra coisa. A única explicação plausível é se o vidro é capaz de reter alguma energia solar...











Lisa (Ontario, Canada) is of the opinion that if the humans really wanted the laptop, they would move her. They never do, therefore, it is fine for her to keep sleeping there.

I was eager to try the new batch of tempeh (desi chickpea and organic sprouted rye), and so I made a stew with what I had on hand, and it turned out well. Post includes a compare-and-contrast between mirin and what is sold as mirin.

The image features a gradient background transitioning from purple at the top to pink at the bottom. The text is predominantly white, with some words in a cursive script. The main message reads: "IT'S OK TO BE WRONG ABOUT THINGS. You can have a change of opinion or beliefs after hearing more information and facts. That's not a personal failure. It's personal growth." The text is arranged in a vertical layout, with the largest text at the top and bottom, and smaller text in the middle. The message is clear and motivational, encouraging the idea that changing one's mind is a sign of personal growth rather than failure.

Russia now fully bans “foreign agents” from all educational work — not just with children, but with adult students too. Anybody with this designation now will lose their teaching license tomorrow. "Foreign agents" are also barred from positions on state corporations. rbc.ru/politics/01/09/2025/68b…



How many of ya'll are in the same city as me?

I'd hope it'd be higher than average, but my guess would be like 6 percent? But I have no idea.

  • I live in NYC (4%, 18 votes)
  • I do not live in NYC (79%, 308 votes)
  • "greater NYC region" or used to live there (6%, 25 votes)
  • Secret Fourth Option (9%, 38 votes)

I would never expect anyone to be from the same city as me. NEW Yorkers are the worst kind of people when it comes to expecting folks who have never been there to know anything about it

The image shows a smartphone screen displaying an animated character, a gray cat with large green eyes, standing in front of a brick wall with two trash bins. The character has a surprised expression, with its arms crossed. Above the character, there is a text overlay that reads "This is the deleted talking Bitch app." Below the image, there is a social media post from "Talking Tom" with a verified checkmark, featuring a comment that says "u call me a what?" with a question mark. The post has garnered 5,100 comments, and there is a button indicating that the creator likes the post. The date of the post is 07-03.

@catsalad I'm not saying I'm on board with our recent ... AI persuasion ... but if software can kill an SSD I'm inclined to blame the SSD.
in reply to Billy O'Neal

from the headline I originally interpreted this as something in the "excessive wear" category (say, a bug that doesn't clear a "dirty" flag in the disk write cache, and keeps writing and writing stuff to disk at full link speed), prematurely exhausting disk write cycles.

That's entirely up to the SSD (NVMe protocol doesn't put wear leveling in the OS)
in reply to Billy O'Neal

yeah, but let's say I have a 1 TB Phison E31T ES, if the OS is gratuitously writing stuff at 8 GB/s, it's going to exceed its 600 TB endurance rating within 21 hours of continuous usage. I'm not saying that this is what is happening here, but that's the kind of stuff that wears out hardware even if it has no firmware bugs.

Once you get out of the SLC cache these don't get anything like 8GB/s. I'd expect somewhere between 0.5GB-2GB/s then but haven't tested that particular model. And you'd need a huge heatsink on the drive to stop it going into thermal derate or shutdown first.

Even at 8GB/s a "I installed this Windows Update and then SSD dead" would be a strange report unless the user let it spin for 20 hours 😛



All my life, I have felt a strong affinity with Jewish people, but now that my employer, Columbia University, has adopted the IHRA definition of antisemitism, I suddenly find myself labeled an "antisemite" because I oppose Palestinian oppression.
