The image shows a small turtle being held between a person's thumb and index finger. The turtle has a dark shell with orange and yellow markings, and its head is raised with its mouth open, giving it a surprised or startled expression. The turtle's limbs are extended outward, and its eyes are wide open. The background is blurred, suggesting an outdoor setting with natural light. Overlaid on the image is text in bold, white capital letters with a black outline. The text reads "WOAH WOAH WOAH" at the top and "CALM YOUR TITS" at the bottom. The text is humorous and contrasts with the turtle's expression.

The image is a three-panel comic strip titled "TWONKS." In the first panel, a man in a blue shirt and black pants stands next to a man in a white shirt and red tie, who is sitting on a stool. The man in the blue shirt asks, "CAN I TAKE A PICTURE?" The man in the white shirt responds, "SURE." In the second panel, the man in the blue shirt is holding a phone, while the man in the white shirt is still sitting on the stool. The third panel shows the man in the blue shirt carrying the framed picture away, leaving the man in the white shirt looking at the empty wall where the picture used to be. The comic strip humorously depicts the common scenario of someone taking a picture of a painting and then removing it, leaving the owner confused.

"Automated license plate readers, also known as ALPRs, are usually installed at intersections and capture images of every license plate passing through. The data is stored with law enforcement agencies and can be used to find a vehicle owner’s information.
State law limits who can access the information, who it can be shared with, and how long the data can be kept. However, police agencies in California — including the L.A. Police Department — have illegally shared ALPR data with federal immigration agents, CalMatters reported.

Wer sich über den angeblichen „Deckelungsvorschlag für Kinder mit Migrationshintergrund“ der Bildungsministerin aufgeregt hat (ich gehörte dazu), dem kann ich dieses wieder einmal exzellente „Altpapier“ sehr ans Herz legen (allen anderen auch). Spoiler: Es war alles ganz anders!
„Prien argumentiert aber im Kontext des Gesprächs nicht für eine solche Deckelung. Sie argumentiert für Sprachtests und Frühförderung. Für elterliche Verantwortung, unabhängig von der Herkunft. Und für einen Blick nach Kanada. Die Deckelung nennt sie zwar "denkbar", um dann aber nur Argumente gegen sie vorzubringen (nicht nachweislich erfolgversprechend, Sprachtests wichtiger, andere Modelle interessanter, PISA-Problem vielschichtiger).“

Are Lemmy-style ":::" tags for spoilers in the community sidebar text for the Piedfed WebUI.
In Lemmy, you hide text blocks behind a spolier ":::" tag:
Go to: lemmy.world/c/hardware, and you'll get the following via the (default?) Lemmy webUI:
If you go to piefed.social/c/hardware@lemmy… (!hardware@lemmy.world) via the Piefed webUI you get the following view in the same siderbar:
If possible, it would be helpful to have the spoiler tag work in Piefed webUI as well.
Tbh its still weird to me after coming to Lemmy from reddit that they reinvented the wheel for comment formatting syntax.
From "> ! ! <" to :::
The lemmy-style spoiler syntax is a huge pain tbh, and very limiting in that for something to be a spoiler, it needs to be a separate paragraph. Adding || in-line spoilers || was one of my first contributions to piefed because I found it so annoying (that won't render as an in-line spoiler on lemmy).
The markdown-parsing library used by piefed supported using the same syntax as telegram/discord, with || spoiler here ||
, so that is what I used for the feature even though I prefer the reddit/stack overflow style spoiler syntax better.
We've hard support for those spoiler things for a long time but there was a bug with it because /c/hardware uses the ::: tag in unexpected ways.
It's fixed now. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
The image features a meme with a humorous caption. At the top, the text reads, "When you leave the store without buying anything." Below this, there is a picture of Kermit the Frog, a green puppet character, standing in a grocery store aisle. The shelves on either side are stocked with various products, and Kermit is positioned in the center, facing the camera with a wide-eyed expression. At the bottom of the image, there is a caption that says, "Act natural, you've done nothing wrong." The overall tone of the meme is light-hearted and relatable, capturing the common experience of leaving a store without making a purchase.

Thinking of this song
Bob Dylan
Shelter from the Storm
I wanted to post this last night when there was a cold wind for a minute, but, appropriately, I had lost my phone 😆
I was thinking I might do a cw: long form Dylan, but people would know not to click, I guess. I really like his long ones where you kind of forget it's on for a while, but not everyone does, I don't, always.
