[15:00] Henk (77) uit Gees organiseert een wandeltocht voor het goede doel. ‘Meer stamceldonoren zijn broodnodig’
Henk Epping kampt sinds 2016 met de gevolgen van bloedkanker, maar de 77-jarige optimist uit Gees gaat niet bij de pakken neerzitten. Hij organiseert op zaterdag 24 mei een voorjaarswandeltocht vanuit Gees. De opbrengst gaat volledig naar het centrum voor stamceldonoren Matchis; de teller staat volgens Epping op ruim 700 euro.

I just need to know. What possible advantage is it to medical practices to have their "hold" music play at 10-20 decibels higher than any of their actual messages, menus, notifications, or people?
Every time I call a doctor's office, I end up with impaired hearing in at least one ear!

Het #CDA is en blijft een lul. De omwonenden van Tata-Steel kunnen de pest krijgen. En nog wel andere ziektes ook, wat #HenriBontenbal betreft.
"Ook CDA-fractievoorzitter Henri Bontenbal waarschuwde voor het "slopen" van grote uitstoters als Tata Steel. Nederland moet niet harder willen verduurzamen dan de rest van de EU, zei Bontenbal, die zelfs open leek te staan voor een aanpassing van de Klimaatwet."

ABC 13: Man accidentally shot self in foot while attempting to kill cockroach
3/9/25
"DETROIT (WKRC) - A man accidentally shot himself in the foot while trying to kill a cockroach in an unlucky and unfortunate series of events.
Police said that the victim, a 50-year-old man who uses a wheelchair, was attempting to kill a cockroach with his shoe.
He took off his shoe and threw it at the bug to kill it, but a revolver he had hidden in the shoe fell to the ground. Upon making contact with the floor, the gun discharged and the bullet hit the victim in the foot."
@mattblaze @swart @Lazarou @feonixrift
i guess cockroaches are tired of the whole "i hear cockroaches can live through being microwaved" and started packing heat? 😀
Guy was in a wheelchair, so I guess he was not actually walking with a revolver hidden in his shoe. And he was not actually trying to shot the cockroach. But then, I wonder why he would carry a gun that way. Just imagine the scenario: "Wait a minute, mister highway robber, I need to retrieve the gun in my shoe and scare you off?"

An interest in security is why I got into doing tech professionally, and "I care about the things that currently work continuing to work" is why I'm still here. It was talks by folks like Ollam, Hadnagy, et al. at DEFCON conferences that I snuck into my viewing rota while working split-shift clopens at a dead-end restaurant job that got me thinking about this shit.
And it was never because I cared about your buttcoin wallet getting leaked. It was the important shit. Telecom. Power. Sanitation systems.
He's an asshole for other reasons, but when Thunderf00t said that cholera was going to kill more people than rads after WW3, he wasn't wrong in principle. He was only wrong because it's not going to take WW3. It's going to take some skid from Belgovodkagrad with nothing better to use his state-of-the-art 14.4kbits dial-up connection throwing a bunch of "A"s at the right switch somewhere.
And nobody seems to give a shit.
