Both the plaintiffs and the defendants know that there is unlikely to be be sufficient t time for the merits to be adjudicated prior to the election beginning (in at least one state, ballots are scheduled to be mailed to voters starting next week), so the fighting over these temporary injunctions is intense. 3/
@heidilifeldman good thread but minor correction; the earliest post primary 2026 midterm ballots are scheduled to start mailing from North Carolina this week, tomorrow Sept 4th, not next. Haven't heard if anyone's ballot envelope design has been approved by Trump's USPS yet, but NC allegedly submitted it early. So I guess we'll start finding out tomorrow how much of a 💩 show Trump's USPS illegal election interference causes.

I have started reading this. It is *glorious*.
Our cat Karened so hard at the vet today that they cleaned his teen in an earlier timeslot than planned just to get him stoned and quiet. That's my boy!
Honey graham crackers. They're what's for dinner. I will not be taking questions at this time. 🙃

But the Trump regime is using appeals to
a) get to the Roberts Six as fast as possible, because the Six are so sympathetic to letting Trump dismantle elections in this county
b) create disruption, confusion, and chaos for state election officials and the voting public. 8/
Still waiting for a ruling from Judge Talwani on today’s proceedings in her court. Meanwhile, I. the Trump DoJ’s appeal of her previous injunctive relief to the Supreme Court, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who hears emergency appeals arising from the 1st Circuit, has given the pro-democracy plaintiffs until September 8 to respond to DoJ’s request for emergency action by the Supreme Court. 9/
Seit einigen Wochen über Datacenter (losgelöst von KI) nachgedacht und einiges dazu gelesen und gelernt.
Ich empfinde die Vorstellung, als Europäerin stünde es mir zu, meine Daten in den Händen eines europäischen Milliardärs zu wissen, wenig ermutigend, und auch nicht recht zielführend (kommt natürlich auf das Ziel an).
Ich wünsche mir daher: Datacenter denen, die ihre Daten dort haben! ✊🏾

@lowqualityfacts this fact is too high quality
Making roasted yellow tomato pasta sauce to put on campanelle pasta for dinner. Very very excited 😋
There’s apparently a joke going around in the military that Hegseth has taken out more US generals than Iranian ones

@AwetTesfaiesus Bei uns bauen die Stadtwerke (mehr oder weniger, es gibt komplizierte Beteiligungsverhältnisse) gerade ein RZ. Es gibt daran einiges zu kritisieren, aber darum geht es mir jetzt nicht. Sondern: was würden wir als mündige, digital aktive und engagierte Bürger:innen idealerweise damit anfangen wollen?
Im Moment ist es als Colocation Center geplant, d.h. die Gebäudehülle und die Strom- und Kühl-Infrastruktur gehört (mehr oder weniger) der Kommune, und es wird die Möglichkeit vermietet, da Kisten reinzustellen. Der Mieter kann dann seinerseits die Benutzung seiner dortigen Kisten weitervermieten...
Sollten wir "unsere" eigenen Kisten da drin haben? Als städtischer Betrieb (identisch mit dem Betreiber des Gebäudes oder eine andere städtische Gesellschaft wie z.B. in unserem Fall die KDZ), oder eben als private Genossenschaft? Und sollte daneben noch ein Colocation-Angebot am Markt erfolgen? Mit welchen Auflagen (z.B. Abnahmezwang des städtischen Ökostroms, aber was noch)?
@TheBreadmonkey Aw, Ben, you absolute peach! Far too kind, thank you. The F-verse would be poorer without you.
And I'm sorry to hear the Fun Police locked you up again for Funcrimes :(
Thank you for your service, Liffon. I don't think it's overstating things to say I love you, I want you to be president of the universe and also you may have one or several of my organs if you need. Life is boring and shit and also rubbish. You make it less so and I am inordinately grateful to you for that. Long may you reign, you lovely thing. X
This little case mod held up well in last night's tempest (currently running #Meshcore as a trial, usually #Meshtastic), lashing 120-130kph winds, driving rain. It got knocked around but was fine. Stayed on the mesh all night.
A situational test I've been looking fwd to do. Artificial tests with garden hose and tumbling it about only tell you so much.
Would take it anywhere.
