The image shows a long, narrow blade with a distinctive pattern, likely made of Damascus steel, resting on a concrete surface. The blade has a slightly curved shape with a pointed tip and a flat base. It features two holes near the top, which are likely for attaching a handle. The blade's surface has a wavy, rippled texture, characteristic of Damascus steel, with variations in color from silver to darker gray. The background includes a section of a cobblestone path and a shadow cast by the blade, indicating a bright light source, possibly the sun. The concrete surface has a rough texture with visible cracks and patches.

Trump is addressing more nations with tariff letters - what's next?
The US President has been sending letters to various countries to address major trade agreements. But according to experts, they tell a confusing story about his policies.Euronews.com
L’homme marque de son empreinte le territoire qu’il habite, inscrivant dans le paysage les traces de son occupation. Éléments vernaculaires de nos paysages, témoins du temps passé, révélatrices du temps présent ou supports du temps qui s’écoule, elles sont le reflet de la situation sociale, économique et politique de ceux qui vivent là. Cette série photographique, initiée en 2011, montre cela, constituant un "portrait de lieu", personnel et subjectif. Le "portrait de lieu" de la France d’aujourd’hui. D’ici et de maintenant.
Man leaves his mark on the territory he inhabits, inscribing the traces of his occupation in the landscape. Vernacular elements of our landscapes, witnesses of the past, revealing the present, or bearing the passage of time, they reflect the social, economic, and political situation of those who live there. This photographic series, initiated in 2011, shows this, constituting a "portrait of place", personal and subjective. The "portrait of place" of today’s France. From here and now.

On 9 July 1917, in NY City, anarchists Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman, were sentenced to serve 2 years in prison, pay fines of $10,000 each, and to be subsequently deported to Russia for violating conscription law
The pair had previously formed a No-Conscription League, and agitated against the war. They defended themselves at trial, and used the opportunity to talk about their political ideas

Das Bild zeigt einen atemberaubenden Sonnenuntergang am Meer. Der Himmel ist in warmen Orangetönen erfüllt, mit dunklen Wolken, die von der untergehenden Sonne beleuchtet werden. Die Sonne selbst ist am Horizont zu sehen, nur als kleiner, glühender Kreis, der das Wasser in goldenes Licht taucht. Die Wellen des Meeres sind sanft und glitzern im Sonnenlicht, während sie an den Strand rollen. Im Vordergrund ist ein Streifen Sand mit spärlicher Vegetation zu sehen, die im Wind leicht bewegt wird. Der Horizont ist klar und weist eine sanfte Linie zwischen dem Meer und dem Himmel auf. In der Ferne ist ein kleines Vogelgeschehen zu erkennen, das dem Bild eine lebendige Note verleiht.

uh, that's terrible. Classic interaction mistake. Consider: what is the thing users want to do 90% of the time (indeed, I've never had a desire to view the posts of a particular user and hashtag).
A bit like how #Sharkey (and probably #Misskey?) wants to confirm every time I search for a hashtag, as if I was doing something very dramatic. ("Are you sure you want to open this hashtags page?").
I mean, what the hell else would I want to do upon hitting return in a search field?
@Setok I tried to search Mastodon's GitHub for any discussion or issue related to this but only found a PR that implemented it with no description of why this was done.
Maybe someone somewhere has a use case for this but to me, it's unnecessarily slowing down the use.
I discovered that clicking it with intention to open to new tab (mouse middle button, cmd+click, etc) does indeed still work so I guess I'll be doing that from now on.

Really, Best Buy?
I went to their home page, typed something in the search field, and then naively hit return thinking it would perform my search. Instead: a new line was added inside the search field.
Splendid.
Maybe I should write a little haiku in there:

Dit levert een kostenbesparing aan noodopvang op van minimaal 600 miljoen euro per jaar. Met dat bedrag kunnen jaarlijks 3.000 woningen worden toegevoegd aan de woningvoorraad.
