It is possible that the rumors relating to a new batch of European-made Stormshadow / SCALP EG missiles to Ukraine might be true.

Another factory in Russia has been struck this afternoon, this time in Yelets, Lipetsk region. Several impacts have been reported. The area has been cordoned off and ambulances are rushing in.

This comes only 2 days after a factory belonging to Russia's military industrial complex in Oryol was targeted and shot ablaze.

Estes polícias de choque vestidos de preto com máscaras quem é que são? Fazem parte da polícia normal, ou estão sob controle direto do governo ou das forças armadas?

Most people use hashtags as #fashionista self-expression - a missed opportunity, feeding #stupidindividualism and #mainstreaming.

Hashtags are DIY tools for community organization: finding each other, connecting ideas, building shared projects and growing collective power. Less personal branding, more grassroots organizing. #OpenWeb #4opens #OMN

The way computer security works in 2026:

1. queers go to congress and demonstrate multiple serious exploits against actual security software. the maintainers deny there’s a problem. nobody pays attention except other queers at congress

2. OpenAI finds a bug which could, hypothetically, in a very difficult-to-orchestrate attack and in the absence of already-existing mitigations, have a security implication. the entire industry has an overnight meltdown. coverage on national news stations worldwide. meanwhile, nobody is provably able to actually make it work as an exploit

This is how programmers fight climate change: support older equipment when it's viable. Not cause mountains of Windows 10 computers to be thrown out.

@pluralistic At the tech conference I was at last week, which was of course 2/3 AI, it was often taken as self-evident that AI had given us huge gains. I should look up some of those people and send them this ...

Been thinking about that space simulator I want to write for Tiny BASIC.

Perhaps it can be like a fetch quest? You must travel from location to location dropping off cargo.

While playing Stellaris, I thought about the "prime directive"--in Stellaris you are not necessarily prohibited from interacting with pre-FTL civilisations.

What if this can have some bearing on the game I want to make?

Maybe there can be systems that are already claimed by big space powers.

@futurebird My best "receipt" for being bad at remembering faces:

In one of the Marvel movies, there's a masked character. Halfway through the movie, he takes it off and the audience audibly gasps. I'm thinking, "Am I supposed to recognize this person?"

@JonChevreau I'm alternating between fits of silent screaming rage/anxious fears/depressive feels & an increased need to find some useful distractions today/for the coming days.

@ruari ooh, I've read about those! Natural hexagonal rock sections, right?

@renatoram @Gina yes indeed. for Italy I recommended Bologna, which is a vibrant city, foodie heaven and a close drive to the sea...
