Co roku podczas finału #WOSP przypomina nam się, że dobrze by było gdyby puszka miała szelki. Momentami dzieciakom rąk brakuje do obsługi puszki serduszek i czego tam jeszcze. No i dno trzeba zakleić i wzmocnić, żeby się nie rozleciało.
Tym razem przypomniało się wystarczająco wcześnie i dzięki temu przedstawiam: „WOŚP puszka holder”. xD

The level of water on our #wetlands is still a bit low, but it's getting better. Unfortunately Vuko, the wetlands protector, is just a small dog and won't be able to do much when draining of those meadows starts in the spring. He's has great teeth, but they don't work on treads of heavy machines.
Zosia seems to like #wetlands. This miht not be apparent from this picture, but all the other were blurred.
Zosia update: Most of our dogs are OK with Zosia, except for one. Who hates her. We're working on this with patience and kindness, but they both needed some stitches.
Changes in infant mortality:
Honing in on probability of death in the first year of life, we see that for babies born in the year 1900, 15% of babies died in the first year of life.
It first fell below 10% in 1914.
First fell below 5% in 1942.
First fell below 1% in 1991.
And was at 0.7% in 2007.
A thread on life expectancy trends around the world. Because what else is an actuary going to do on vacation? 😉
Of course the data is imperfect. But still interesting.
I looked at:
1. Italy, Cda, France, US
2. Stable mid-east
3. Volatile mid-east
4. Southern Africa
5. Southeast Asia
6. South America (west)
7. Central America
8. Russia/Ukraine/Poland
9. HK/JP/Korea

Trochę mi się chaotycznie po domu baterie walają. Wydrukowałem sobie 2 skrzynki na baterie AA i AAA ;-)
W końcu łatwo widać gdzie są baterie.
Projekt dość udany, choć wymagający klejenia. Trochę inspiracja do zaprojektowania własnego w przyszłości.

Our last car went down. 1.5 km from the house. Oh, well, mud and water. You love them and you hate them when living in a bog.

By denying the right to repair, they're protecting their intellectual property and their constitutional rights to be greedy.
"Earlier this month, Polish hackers known as Dragon Sector accused one of Poland’s largest train makers, Newag, of intentionally bricking its own trains when they’re repaired by third parties. Newag threatened to sue Dragon Sector, but the story exploded as an example of why we deserve the right-to-repair and the company is facing an investigation from the Polish Office of Competition and Consumer Protection"

Fucked up #AI bullshit is now appearing *in Google image search results*. Unpicking this mess is going to take years.

So, in the timeline this mall is on, both vapes & videotapes exist concurrently?
You may have seen the viral video of the Israeli soldier bragging openly about killing Palestinian children and babies in #Gaza, to the merry amusement of the people he was speaking to.
Neither the attitude nor the action is new or rare and it's certainly not a post-traumatic response to Oct 7.
More than twenty years ago, I spent some time on a teaching English certification course together with an American evangelical couple. I was probably the only Palestinian they'd ever met. After a couple of weeks they worked up the courage to ask me about something that had been bothering them. They told me how an American-Israeli acquaintance of theirs back home had told them casually about having killed a young child when he was in the IDF “but so what, he was only an Arab".
This couple were decent people who clearly suffered from the cognitive dissonance that encounter had triggered. I guess they were hoping to hear something from me that would help them make sense of it. But I'm not sure it helped when they saw that I was not even the slightest bit shocked or surprised to hear about their friend’s admission, because of course he did.
