domanda:
perché il 5 marzo scorso, il ministro #GuidoCrosetto dichiarò che per ora "non sono pervenute richieste da parte degli Stati Uniti sull’uso delle #basi" per #GuerraIRAN,quando invece fonti aperte rivelano voli cargo da #Sigonella e #Aviano prima del 5 marzo?
@Floppy if you're not planning to take pictures, I wouldn't bother. With a star party people won't be looking for that long usually. Plenty of time between people to adjust as needed.
@emily_s yeah, that's what I was thinking. Good, less to carry (and tbh I can't remember how it fits on anyway)
@naderman Man, that rings true. Packagist always gets left off the IT shutdown list, and there's others. I was on packages I shouldn't have been for a LONG time. I am still the resource admin on a different platform for Vanilla, which I left more than 6 years ago. Just had a reach out AND an admin notification *this week* about 2 separate accounts for a job I left a year ago.
@naderman The bar is *on the ground* for responsible technical management in SaaS companies. It's 100% driven by what folks think they can get away with ignoring. I've *never* joined leadership of a company and not found a deep rabbit hole of serious problems.
premesso: seguo il caso della bomba a #SigfridoRanucci come tutti i lettori che NON hanno accesso privilegiato a informazioni riservate sull'inchiesta,ma conosco bene la guerra sporca contro i giornalisti che danno fastidio,e NON credo all'auto-attentato con bomba farlocca
@emily_s reckon it's worth me putting in my equatorial drive motor? I'll have to find some massive batteries, but if it's not worth it I won't bother.
@Floppy if you're not planning to take pictures, I wouldn't bother. With a star party people won't be looking for that long usually. Plenty of time between people to adjust as needed.
💸 Musk’s Starlink Socks Customers With $1500 ‘High Demand’ Surcharge
“I have been charged 1500 dollars demand surcharge for simply verifying my address that I have subscribe to 3 years ago. I have contacted starlink customer support but it’s pretty worthless. I have been getting tossed from one agent to another agent for the past 5 days.”

@aspragg @slightlyoff @pluralistic a surprising number of web pages also will yell at you if you disable your browser's built-in DRMs, too, and it seems like most people do not realize that.
Everything is terrible, but my goats are very happy. Please enjoy my happy chaos goats.
@sundogplanets IDK; how do goats look when they are unhappy? If captioned as 'Behold, my miserable, downtrodden goats', I would be equally convinced.
La #Germania vuole una stretta sull'accesso alle informazioni del governo.
La trasmissione #Cosmo dell'emittente pubblica #WDR mi ha chiesto la mia esperienza con l'accesso ai documenti come giornalista d'inchiesta.
Grazie #Cosmo e grazie #CristinaGiordano!

#Bookreview #trees
The book doesn’t try to advocate for trees or talk about their functionality and importance to human life...The tactics tree lovers normally use to try to get the unaffected to care about trees are all thrown out the window. Here, trees deserve to exist because they are living beings. ... in boldly claiming space for trees, the book veers away from anthropocentrism, the belief that human beings are the central and most important beings in the universe.
The two-yearly EMF FOMO is strong this time round.
@neil Yep. Annoyingly my UK/Europe trip was planned before the dates were announced and so I'm back home.
Strongly considering coming over next time and doing full build-up/teardown volunteering if poss.
Girl in line behind us for the haunted mansion is trying to radicalize her friends against the concept of billionaires
@halcy Tell her I'm proud of her.
So I'm trying to contact a bunch of enterprises with SDKs on packagist to help with sponsorships. But what I'm finding instead is that their SDKs are mostly owned by ex-employee accounts with private email addresses or bouncing corporate emails. 😵💫

@whitequark Any recommendations for an alternative? I want something that can draw boxes that contain other boxes and have lines between them. It looks like asciidoctor-diagram supports lots and lots of options.
My kids lives are both directly & indirectly impacted by #ClimateCollapse : in addition to “everyday” heatwave effects, now the favorite outdoor bouldering / free-climbing place is burning in forest fires 😞
@becha Lets go back to basics. Let's start planting trees in every nook and corner including inside our homes . 😍
A lovely cycle back to Paddington through the parks. Warmer, but still not stifling.
Apparently, my train is on platform 14 at Paddington.
I didn't realise that Paddington *had* a platform 14.
It seems to be about half way between Paddington and Reading.
Without a single word, this clip explains why Trump's idea of making everything in the US is failing.
The global market has lead to some highly efficient, highly specialized factories.
This clip shows a Japanese factory producing feather shuttlecocks for badminton — complete with computer scanners ensuring the quality of the feathers plus perhaps 100 other steps.
Sure you could replicate this in the US, but then there would still be millions of other product lines.
@randahl Love the part where the finished product gets shot across the room to the woman with the racket.
Not sure how this relates to your point. But it was excellent.
Bah, There's been a big fire at my favourite local snackbar. Looks like it's been completely gutted by the fire. There were 4 fire engines and other emergency services there. I hope noone was hurt.
