Were you better off four years ago? NO. Trump failed at covid testing, and the Wall Street Execs who were able to attend his shoddily arranged conference call all knew it. #FourYearsAgo#Fail
"Mit den fortschreitenden Risiken von Cyberangriffen gegen kritische Infrastrukturen und die öffentliche Ordnung stößt die Versicherungsbranche an ihre Grenzen. Die Munich Re fordert daher einen staatlichen Haftungsschirm."
Seit Wochen gehen Menschen gegen Rechts auf die Straße und der #Presseclub lädt eine "Journalistin" des rechten Desinformationsverlags #Springer ein? Was soll das? Mit Leuten von Bild sitzt man als anständige:r Journalist:in nicht an einem Tisch. Nichts verstanden bei der #ARD? Ich fasse es nicht und schalte ab. #wdr#fail#journalismusinderkrise
@Miro_Collas ...hokay: they FINALLY get to the meat of the matter at the 19 min 20-some second mark, so I'm going to bullet-point the items as they come across...
The IDF aimed at the WCK vehicles because there's no command/control chain-of-command anything and they just do what they want (presenter calls that plausible and cites a Haaretz article in which there are leaked IDF comms to back that up).
*speculation was that WCK was a Trojan Horse replacement for UNWRA so WCK issued a statement to the contrary, stating further that WCK works with other relief orgs including UNWRA. The 2 days later the IDF shoots at them.
I'm not going to bullet-point the "third possibility" because it's just bonkers--there's a bright side to the killing and that it bolsters the publicity of WCK, and this video was attempting to make that case since the first minute--that WCK wasn't interested as much in actual relief as it was in the publicity, and on that point the video is a massive #FAIL as of this "third possibility" which it really isn't.
At the 22 minute mark, Nora Friedman made the point that Mary just made: the incident might have produced more donations to WCK but it's not the case that WCK is resuming operations there. It's been off-putting for all the other aid organizations operating there as well.
Well that was a messy attempt to dist-upgrade Ubuntu from focal to noble. Many packages held back thanks to breakages in snapd and suchlike gratuitous unnecessary shite, so it refused to install consistent versions of just about anything starting with ImageMagick and working up. Networking/systemd/dhcpcd fargled due to lxc/apparmor too.
So after an evenings's hassle, my work VM is now running debian/testing and my build environment for work works too.
Asked #Copilot (formerly #BingChat) a familiar riddle but with numbers changed to make it impossible. It generated the same solution but substituting the numbers so that it ends up with the nonsense claim:
Our hero, the doctor, comes out of the woods following the search for a missing woman, where two searchers are caught in man-traps. He goes to his car and unlocks it, gets in, and closes the door through the open window.
Why is it impossible for film-makers to get this simple thing right? Who the feck locks their car leaving the driver's window open?
The Philadelphia “City Connect” jerseys, which I don’t understand the purpose of AT ALL, are so bad that I may have to boycott all Friday home games in protest. They’re to premier on April 12, and then be worn for every Friday home game.
What the fuck is going on with MLB and Nike? It’s criminal. Greedy fucks.
🦴 Version control is great, but sometimes it can trip you up! In this post I recount my rather stupid mistake of using when I shouldn't have, and how I got out of it. ---
Ich habe dieses Plakat #OmaCourage schon ein paar mal gesehen und dachte, es wäre eine Fotomontage GEGEN die #FDP und ihre Spitzenkandidatin #StrackZimmermann.
Aber holy shit! Das ist tatsächlich ein ernstgemeintes Design der FDP HÖCHSTSELBST im Rennen um die #Europawahl2024!
Wer's nicht checkt: M.A.S.Z. soll hier als Frau mit Erfahrung und Mütterlichkeit (Oma) dargestellt werden, die den Mut hat, unangenehme Wahrheiten auszusprechen (Courage).
Der Bezug zum Brecht-Stück "Mutter Courage" ist offensichtlich gewollt, allerdings ist diese Mutter eine der unsympathischsten Figuren der Literatur: Sie versucht, aus dem Krieg Kapital zu schlagen und verliert dabei all ihre Kinder.
Brecht schrieb das Stück als Warnung vor dem Kapitalismus und der Kriegstreiberei. (Kritiker:innen behaupten ja, diese sprachliche Brücke zur Verteidigungsspezialistin der FDP wäre on point...)
Jedes verlängerte Wochenende mit halbwegs gutem Wetter fällt der #Garmin Server aus. Kann ja keiner ahnen, dass da Leute draußen Sport machen würden. #fail
Alors… un pantalon de pluie qui puisse faire du 2xl, je trouve ça où ? Parce que D4 c’était en rupture de stock vendredi…. Les grandes tailles à vélo, c’est pas encore ça hein. #fail#velo
