Poland Holds Presidential Vote on Sunday
Poland will hold the first round of the presidential election on Sunday amid growing disagreements with the European Union's executive over migration and asylum.Sputnik International
In one of the bloodiest massacres, more than 100 Palestinians were killed and hundreds injured or reported missing following a wave of intense Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip at dawn Sunday.
The victims, primarily women and children, were distributed across the besieged enclave as follows: 44 martyrs in the south, 42 in the north, and 15 in central areas. Families seeking refuge in tents were directly struck.

I feel there's something ironic about the evolution of tech when you have to create things to undo the issues that progression has created.
Exhibit A: A shelf that you can attach to your flat screen TV to replace the surface lost after the demise of cathode-ray TVs.

Giani e il Ponte sul Serchio: "Un’opera attesa da anni"
Ieri sopralluogo sul cantiere del presidente della Regione Toscana. Nei prossimi giorni ci sarà il varo della seconda campata lunga 80 metri.
Minister-president Dick Schoof als u geen rode lijn trekt, dan doen wij het!
Het kabinet-Schoof zakt ver door een morele én juridische ondergrens. Ondanks Israëls voortdurende schendingen van het oorlogsrecht, trekt onze regering geen rode lijn en weigert deze actie te ondernemen om straffeloosheid en medeplichtigheid te stoppen. Daarmee negeert de regering ook de oproep van een grote meerderheid van Nederlanders. Dat accepteren we niet! 1)
The image is a poster with a black background and white and red text. At the top, it reads "Zondag 18 mei" (Sunday, 18 May) and "Den Haag" (The Hague). The central part of the poster features the large, bold text "RODE LIJN" (Red Line) with a red horizontal line beneath it. Below this, there is a message in white text: "Wij trekken de RODE LIJN" (We draw the Red Line) and "Wij eisen dat onze regering gaat staan voor het internationaal recht en dat ze luistert naar de meerderheid van Nederland. Kom met ons in actie en sluit je aan bij de menselijke ketting." (We demand that our government stands up for international law and listens to the majority of the Netherlands. Join us in action and join the human chain.). At the bottom left, in green text, it says "Meld je aan" (Sign up). On the bottom right, there is a QR code with the text "Kabinet-Schoof, trek die rode lijn - anders doen wij het!" (Cabinet Schoof, draw that red line - otherwise we will do it!). The overall design is simple and direct, with a strong emphasis on the red line as a symbol.

In what has been described as the most dangerous leak since the start of the war on Gaza, shocking statements by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu have emerged from a closed-door Knesset session.
Netanyahu explicitly admitted that the destruction in Gaza is being carried out deliberately with the goal of preventing Palestinians from returning to their homes—paving the way for a new demographic reality that forces mass displacement.

Post production question: Is there a simple way to remove banding/lines in my photos?
I've googled the issue and I understand _why_ it happens, but I'm sometimes forced to shoot in silent mode not to disrupt the show so I'm kinda stuck with it.
I've found a manual solution that means having to use Photoshop and pull some levers (not tried that, so I can't say how well it works), but I'm thinking in these times of AI-solutions, that there could be a simple way to remove it "with a click". I'm usually working in Adobe Lightroom, so it would be cool to know if there's a built-in solution or a filter/preset that could do the job...
ANyone else struggling with this?

Nuovo gruppo sanguigno
(via blogcomicstrip.blogspot.com )

il blog delle comic strip, una pagina di fumetti sui quotidiani italiani, fumetti, strisce, novitàblogcomicstrip.blogspot.com
L'immagine è un quadrato di tre fumetti che racconta una storia comica. In primo piano, un uomo con occhiali da sole e abbigliamento nero, probabilmente un detective o un personaggio simile, si siede su una sedia in un ufficio medico. Il medico, con i capelli grigi e una camicia bianca, gli chiede dei risultati dei suoi esami del sangue. L'uomo risponde che i risultati sono "in linea con il tuo stile di vita." Il medico, leggendo il rapporto, dice che il gruppo sanguigno è "O RH doppio malto," una risposta ironica e comica. L'uomo, sorpreso, chiede "Cioè?" e il medico spiega che il gruppo sanguigno è "O RH doppio malto." L'immagine è un esempio di umorismo italiano, con un personaggio stereotipato e una risposta inaspettata.

Useranno il voto come un’arma
L'islam punta a distruggere tutto quello che voi considerate "democrazia". Siete dei folli se volete dare il diritto di voto a chi vuole usarlo per distruggerci. Ed i primi ad essere annientati saranno proprio i sinistri idioti del piddì, delle sinistre "volemosse bene", gli "accoglioni". Che appunto essendo "accoglioni" non se ne rendono conto. Il diritto di voto è ampiamente sopravvalutato.

in reply to Frank DeTeEs • • •The image depicts a whimsical scene featuring a penguin engaged in gardening. The penguin, with its characteristic black and white coloring, is sitting on a yellowish ground, holding a pink watering can and watering a small plant with a pink flower. The plant is placed in a green pot, which is resting on the ground. The background is a simple landscape with a blue sky and yellowish hills, suggesting a desert-like environment. The artwork is done in a watercolor style with visible brush strokes, and the artist's signature "Frank 25" is visible in the bottom right corner. The overall composition is playful and imaginative, with the penguin in a human-like activity, creating a charming and humorous scene.
