Thihihi 🤭 … I feel oldschool and somewhat avant garde at the same time.

I have burned my first 25GB Blu-Ray M-Disc on my Mac.

I'm currently running a test with a 100GB Blu-Ray M-Disc which some people said might fail with macOS included tools.

I'll know in about 60 Minutes 😬🤞

@hukl sounds reasonable. The m disc compatible burner in my Debian PC will also be my long term offline backup solution.

Apple says "it's totally not a recording", but if it is being transferred and processed by text to speech, it certainly behaves like a recording.

The implementation details of how and where this "not recording" is being stored and transferred sound somewhat reasonable if you consented to being recorded all the time, but I absolutely do not.

Il est vraisemblable que dans un premier temps, Trump soit mis sous tutelle invisible par son entourage (filtrage de toute sa communication etc). Si ça ne suffit pas, ce qui est probable, le camp républicain dans son ensemble se résoudra à le destituer pour sauver non pas les mid-terms (c'est déjà fichu), mais la présidentielle de 2028. Avec une guerre fratricide Vance/Rubio/X à l'issue incertaine.

Deutschland rüstet massiv auf, stattet Geheimdienste mit invasiven Überwachungsmethoden sowie Polizeibefugnissen aus und die Behörden machen längst vor, wie man Gesetze und Gerichte ignoriert — während eine rechtsextreme Partei sich anschickt, die Macht zu übernehmen.

What could possibly go wrong?

Die #Bahn hat leider die Brücke vom Schwertransporter runterfallen lassen.

Did you hear about the UK government report on ecosystem collapse? It was created not only by the environment department but also intelligence agencies like MI5 and MI6. Reporters were invited to see the unveiling of this report in October 2025 - but at the last minute the Prime Minister blocked it!

Luckily the Greens forced the release of a 14-page redacted version.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗽𝘀𝗲 - 𝗶𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗿.

Here's the redacted version: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/696e0eae719d837d69afc7de/National_security_assessment_-_global_biodiversity_loss__ecosystem_collapse_and_national_security.pdf

(1/2)

Critical ecosystems are at risk of collapsing (1)
If current rates of biodiversity loss continue, every critical ecosystem is on
a pathway to collapse.
An ecosystem collapses when it passes beyond a critical threshold or tipping point, after
which it can no longer maintain essential functions or structure, leading to extensive shifts to
its size and composition. The ecosystem transitions irreversibly from one stable state to another.
For instance, the Amazon basin collapse would see it shifting to a drier savannah state.
Collapse impairs an ecosystem’s ability to provide vital services including clean water, food
production, and climate regulation. This could accelerate climate change and biodiversity loss
and have catastrophic implications, including the collapse of major food sources and fundamental
changes to global weather patterns and the water cycle.
As biodiversity loss and degradation continue, impacts become more severe and the
likelihood of ecosystems collapsing increases. It is likely that ecosystem collapses would
happen concurrently given their shared drivers and feedback loops.
There is a high degree of uncertainty around the timing and pathways of ecosystem collapse.
The drivers of ecosystem degradation are approaching the known thresholds for collapse -
for example, the Amazon is likely to collapse at 20-25% deforestation when combined with
temperature rises and forest fires; it is currently at 17%. 9-13 But the thresholds for collapse could be
higher or lower than the science has been able to identify: we could be closer to, or further away
from, the thresholds than we think; and there could be additional thresholds that we do not know
about yet. There is a realistic possibility that trends to date mean we have unknowingly crossed
thresholds already and irreversible collapse of some ecosystems is inevitable (for example coral
reefs), though we may not see the impacts for several years.
There is a realistic possibility some ecosystems start to collapse by 2030 or sooner, as a
result of biodiversity loss from land use change, pollution, climate change and other drivers.
There is a realistic possibility that coral reefs in SE Asia and boreal forests will start to collapse from
2030, and rainforests and mangroves from 2050.
Preventing ecological collapse would require the reduction of human impacts, alongside
restoration of ecosystems. Restoration of some ecosystems (tropical forests) is more feasible than
others (coral reefs, Himalayas).
In Malawi, over 20 million trees have been planted
and 42,000 hectares of degraded land rehabilitated.
This has supported over 500,000 local residents with
improved access to water, diversified food production
and income sources. The number of participants
depending on humanitarian aid has declined by 60%.

climate shocks in Malawi, World Food Programme, 2023
Case study: protecting and
restoring ecosystems improves
food system and societal
resilience to shocks.
Planetary boundaries are the safe limits
identified by scientists for human pressure on nine
Earth system processes crucial for maintaining a stable
planet. As of 2023, six boundaries have been crossed:
(1) biosphere integrity (including biodiversity loss);
(2) climate change;
(3) land use change;
(4) freshwater change;
(5) nutrient flows (nitrogen and phosphorus); and
(6) novel entities (chemical and plastic pollution).
The three remaining boundaries are:
(7) stratospheric ozone depletion;
(8) atmospheric aerosol loading; and
(9) ocean acidification.

@las_lallero i problemi son due: il primo è la nicotina. Domenica son 3 mesi che non fumo sigarette e non appena mi fumo una cannetta inevitabilmente la introduco e mi mette un po' in difficoltà. Il secondo problema è strettamente collegato.. Quando ho da fumare spesso per soddisfare la voglia di nicotina mi ritrovo a fumare le canne al momento sbagliato, come al mattino o in situazioni non proprio adeguate

"Prominent Israelis have welcomed new UK sanctions as a necessary response to settlement expansion and spiralling violence in the occupied West Bank. (...) “Sanctions [are being imposed] against Jewish terrorists, and not against the legitimacy of the state of Israel,” they wrote in a joint statement. “There is no basis to the [Israeli] government’s response that the decision to impose sanctions against Jewish terrorists is an expression of antisemitism.”
