@razem Lewica słabiej, Razem silniej. Brawo ✊
P.S. Już wam nie odpuścimy fedi. Macie teraz troszkę czasu, własną instancję, chcę Was posłanki i senatorki tutaj, a nie tylko w korpo socialach. Tutaj się dociera do żywych ludzi! Musicie, bo w końcu mamy socialmedia od ludzi dla ludzi, a nie od venture capital dla jeszcze większego zysku.
I'm old enough to remember when peaceful protest was legal in the UK.
"Why scientists are reanimating spider corpses for research" Short Wave [NPR]'s Halloween-flavored look/listen at these Ig Nobel Prize winners https://www.npr.org/2023/10/18/1198908301/necrobotics-reanimating-spiders-ig-nobel-prize
There is a basic principle at play here. People like to live in rural locations - do you demand that own a car, or do you provide a decent public transport service?

TIL that the Swedish word for ‘arm chair’ is ‘fåtölj’. This is not transparent for Danish speakers, as we say ‘lænestol’ (‘leaning chair’). The Swedes borrowed the word from French ‘fauteuil’, who borrowed it from Frankish ‘*faldistōl’ (‘folding chair’).

@futurebird I had a buddy who was a Marine and on one deployment, a three-legged dog adopted his unit. When time came to head back to the US, they built a well-ventilated crate for him and put on it the barcode for a tripod. The aircrew doing the cargo load scanned the crate, agreed that it contained a tripod, and loaded him on the plane. He was thus completely within the regulations to be shipped back. His barcode matched his description.
"I pulled George out of the bay at Noumea. The Ship's photographer made up a liberty card for him. George lived with me in the Lighting Shop for over a year and went over the hill when we reached Seattle."
In 1944 some Navy men rescued a kitten and filled out all the forms for him like this.

New post on my #blog
I wanted to have Wi-Fi on my off-grid allotment, so I made my LTE modem run on battery power. In the post I describe the build process and the list of needed parts. It's a fun and simple project for everyone with a similar need :)
OK, I lolled a bit. One of my blog posts (the one about the powerbank) was shared by someone on an US discussion board for farmers. There were a few post discussing it in the thread. I registered there and in that thread said thank you for the feedback and the input, I am the creator of that blog, and if anyone is interested, I wrote a followup to that post. Nothing more.
Yesterday I got an email that my account was blocked for spamming xD
OK all you ex-Twitter users. I know you are the kind of people who most definitely downloaded your Twitter archive before leaving (if not, you can do that here: https://twitter.com/settings/download_your_data).
Grab that ZIP file, then use our tool to slurp all of the t.co shortened links from the tweets in your archive. It will send them to us so we can find more throttled domains.
This does NOT send us your archive, just the public t.co links. Everything runs locally in your browser.
