The Trump regime is now taking money directly from bank accounts after the DOGE team seized control of the American ACH system. There’s no doubt in my mind that they will steal money from political opponents. If anything were to lead to the mass secession of US states then this would be it. The US is about to collapse. #uspol #fascism #trump rollingstone.com/politics/poli…

Superman's origin story mirrors that of Moses, reflecting the Jewish heritage of his creators. The comic book industry's roots are deeply intertwined with Jewish American history and culture. An immigration historian and a lifelong comics fan explains:

Tonight's Low Quality Ad is for these Fruits and Veggies Dog Squeaky Toys. Corgis are natural farmers, and they will go insane if you don't give them an outlet to express their agricultural desires.

I should make a thing that plays a different song depending on how the cable is rotated.

Might be cool for an escape room prop, providing you can also buy the matching jack.


Lately, I've been messing around with adding modern 3D elevation relief to historic maps. This is the original GLO survey from 1859-60 of the Grand Marais, Minnesota area.

Learning how to do this has been challenging. I've been using QGIS > Photoshop > Blender > Photoshop as the workflow.

That is actually really cool! I imagine aligning the coordinate systems of the original map with modern terrain maps would be one of the (many) challenging parts. Your result is amazing, and since you mentioned blender, I imagine you could draw this out from any perspective? Very neat!
in reply to Curt Olson

@clolsonus Thanks. As best as I can figure, these were American Polyconic using a datum that isn't available in any gis program. Maybe something prior to but based on the New England Datum. This is before NAD. I've been using NAD27, but it's usually off. I just fix it in Photoshop after I get it close in QGIS.

With Blender anything seems possible. I like this view and the overhead views the best so far. Here's an example 3d view up Devil Track River Canyon.

Risotto is the greatest. If you’re not making chicken stock* and then risotto tonight, what are you even doing?

*if you’re able to decant the fat the same night, you came out better than me. (I usually just decant after cooling overnight. I’ll get that tomorrow.)

in reply to Emily 'Feeds Spiders' Velasco

@MLE_online I’m always evangelizing for it. My unsolicited tips are:
-use your own stock
-all the pressure to stir constantly is bullshit

I can give more, solicited tips too if ever requested.

Sometimes you think of the starwhale from Doctor Who and draw a little whale friend as you remember the episode. At least that is what led to the creation of this tiny whale.

I draw each of my flat 3D prints in Procreate, upload them to Maker World's "image to keychain" tool, download the file, and then print it. It's a quick way to make hand drawn art into something you can hold. I guess you could also print our your art as stickers but I enjoy the 3D prints.

The second image (video) shows my drawing process. I hope you enjoy this friend!

@geerlingguy macOS + Ansible weekend project thanks to your video and galaxy collection. I am happy with how it turned out. Equally useful for a new system bootstrap or just adding a package.

🇺🇸 A double standard. Trump won’t sanction Russia (yet) because he wants peace talks, says Sec. of State Rubio.

Sanctioning the aggressor? ❌
Blocking weapons to Ukraine to force talks? ✅

Meanwhile, Russia keeps making demands with zero consequences. Why is only Ukraine being pressured to compromise?



⚡️🇪🇺 The EU has no plans to halt arms supplies to Ukraine even if a 30-day ceasefire is agreed, DW reports, citing diplomats.

Ukraine is running out of missiles for its Samp-T air defense systems, Corriere della Sera reports. Kyiv has urgently asked Italy & France for at least 50 Aster-30 missiles to replenish its stocks.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Ukraine's missile program is making major strides. The "Long Neptune" has passed tests & seen successful combat use—precise strikes at a 1,000 km range. A huge step for our defense. Kudos to our developers, manufacturers & military. We keep working to secure Ukraine.


🇷🇸 Massive student protests erupt in Serbia against President Vučić. Demonstrations, ongoing for months, are now escalating nationwide. Protesters demand the removal of Vučić & his party, calling for a transitional government. The movement intensified after a deadly incident at Novi Sad station killed 15.
