Thanks to @groue, I discovered that I didn't really understand how `@preconcurrency` works. I'm trying to fix that now, and I've just added a new section here on using libraries that have not adopted concurrency. Covers just a few things, but I've learned a lot already!

6/ The Twitter account is only two days old, so this seems like a new tactic. But it's amazing that this is what is considered necessary prior to another displacement and inevitable massacre in Rafah - trying to prepare Gazans for a post Hamas future.

@israel @palestine 5/ This one telling Gazans that 'the future is in your hands' is particularly insulting. This editions advertises an empty telegram channel NewGaza24 (creepy name) with an Israeli numbers.

4/ They've even got crappy cartoons, the one on the right shows Ismail Haniyeh pulling the aid with Hamas fighters preventing Gazans from getting it. (And Israeli propagandists share these constantly)

Show thread

@palestine @israel 3/The second page is essentially saying that Hamas are blocking the aid and that's the reason it's not getting to Palestinians. Of course, they blame everything on Hamas.

@palestine @israel 2/ Firstly, it's called 'Reality', and says in red 'In this paper you will read only the truth, nothing else'. 😭😂

It includes a shot at Hamas leadership in Qatar - accusing them of watching the AFC and buying jewelry while Palestinians suffer (ongoing trope used by IDF)

Marc Owen Jones: 🧵This is nuts. The IDF have started dropping propaganda 'newspapers' over #Gaza. You can see some of the screenshots here. They even have a link to their shitty Twitter @alwakagaza. Read for some 'highlights'...

Watched The Marvels, it’s not a bad film. It certainly didn’t deserve the hate it got. It was absolutely carried by Iman Vellani though, a very believable and charming performance. It’s very obvious though that Marvel didn’t stick as much money in this one, some of the CGI was downright ropey (although given how poorly they pay CGI artists they can’t have saved that much) #Film

Turns out if you start KDE Plasma in Arabic, the entire user interface flips horizontally (presumably to work better with right-to-left text).

This is blowing my mind. 🤯

Taylor Swift responds to private plane pollution allegations by launching herself from Tokyo to Las Vegas by trebuchet for the super bowl.

Donny Frump has said he would "encourage" Russia to attack any Nato member that fails to pay its bills as part of the Western military alliance.

#RedBelliedWoodpecker

One of the many woodpeckers that call the woods home. From the tiny Downy to the large Pileated, we see these forms year round. This is a Red-bellied Woodpecker that gave an nice pose but a challenge with the backlighting. Exposed at +3EV to correct for the backlight.

Sunflower Safecracker

In this photograph there is a Carolina chickadee in the process of getting into a sunflower seed. I you look between the little bird's feet you can see that it is holding a sunflower seed and has pecked a whole into the seed. I suppose that the bird can't just crack it in half like a finch or a carinal would do.

You know, the photographs that I post here are not quite a vivid as the same photographs that I post at my pixel's gallery, because here, I reduce the size of the photos and usually make a slight reduction in the quality of the photos to make them easier to load.
