I don’t find this effective at all. He can’t even pretend to be tough.

19-year-old Jorge Ruiz, a Mexican immigrant in Alabama on an H-2B visa, was convicted of murder after a fatal car crash.
He was initially sentenced to the maximum possible punishment, longer than what prosecutors had requested: 99 years.

@luca Le candidature vanno presentate (e ovviamente non dai candidati stessi) entro il 31 gennaio. A meno che qualcuno non lo abbia candidato già allora, quel che fa ora lo fa per il premio del 2026.
@MauroV1968 sicuri che non abbia trovato un cane che lo abbia candidato a gennaio ? c'e' un elenco dei candidati ?

As individuals, it's usually easy to avoid funding publicly terrible people. If we do make that mistake, it's usually easy to say "my bad" and stop doing it.
For example:
A few months ago I bought a Framework 16. That's my bad.
/me stops buying from Framework
See?
Every purchase is a vote.
@hruske thank you, this is super useful!

If anyone wants to go deeper into this, the percentage of nominal power actually produced is known as the capacity factor.

Ich bezahle von meinen Steuern lieber fünf Betrüger*innen als dass auch nur eine Person alles verliert, weil sie zum Beispiel krank ist.
SPD ist halt auch keine Partei für soziale Politik.
If you stop and think about it, the idea of being able to sift in a fraction of a second through almost the entire breadth of human knowledge is an extraordinary ability. It was a truly amazing tool, a significant step forward in human development. How was it possible that a handful of misguided C-suite executives managed to effectively destroy one of the most powerful tools that we had to deal with knowledge? It's insane if you stop and think about it for a second.
@gabrielesvelto I suggest kagi.com - pay a smallish fee to get search results ad free and (in my experience) really pretty good on relevance and cover

My Dad's on the lookout for a reasonable e-book reader. No Android, no color, no LCD screen - eInk only.
It's been over a decade I last bought an ebook reader, and the Kindle Paperwhite we bought back then still functions great (it never connected to the internet), so I'm a bit out of my depth.
I was looking at a Kobo Clara BW, and I seem to recall reading favourable reviews of Kobo devices.
Is this a good one? Or is there any better one in a similar price range?
For various reasons, not interested in second hand devices, nor DIY or hacked customs. Dad needs something that can be bought off the shelf of a random local shop (or ordered online, shipping to Hungary without horrible tarrifs).
I'm pretty excited to be attending and a part of the 1st Canadian Conference on Open Science & Open Scholarship, starting this morning. There is a free live stream for anybody that is interested and could not come in person (or didn't hear of it previously). The website with the program and other info is here: https://oscanada.github.io and if you'd like to access the Zoom links (different for day 1 and 2), they are here: https://oscanada.github.io/en/program

Camarades qui vivez à Nantes et alentours, un ami vend son vélo électrique Tern GSD S10 LR (un cargo longtail électrique). C’est de la bonne qualité, en bon état, par un vendeur absolument honnête et sympa (je lui ai acheté un vélo il y a quelques années).
