Willem challenged us to ask ourselves what we would do if we were living under Nazi occupation. Before all of this, I doubt anyone thought they would be complicit. I doubt anyone said to themselves, "nothing. I would cower in fear and do nothing."
But for 4 years or so we all answered that question again and again with our lives. Now here we are, answering it again... Every day. But it's no longer "what would you do during the rise of Hitler?" It's now, "what would you do after the invasion of Poland," and "what would you do after you knew about the concentration camps?"
For some people, the answer is still, "nothing."
But a lot of people have been brave in the face of it all. A lot of people have died, and a lot more will die. He will die, perhaps after a ruling by some court or other but, honestly, probably not. That's just how these things work out. Lots of people die, some for no reason, some because they stood up against injustice. A whole lot of people do nothing, until it's safe to claim victory... Until it's no longer safe to be on the other side.
That's just how these things go. Fascism is self-defeating, but it causes incredible harm on it's path of self-destruction. The more people who stand up, who risk themselves, the faster it collapses and the fewer it can hurt. That's also just how these things go. It's incredibly dangerous for everyone until enough people take some extra risk and make it safe for everyone again.
But that question still stands... Which one of those groups are you in? Are you proud of what you are doing, or will you look back with shame? Some of y'all have a lot to be proud of, but, if you're not, it's never too late to earn your way into that proud group.

Whatever the expectations for the July 7-8 NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey,
the geopolitical situation favors Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan so heavily that he is all but guaranteed to emerge the winner
—if NATO summits can have winners at all.
In the wake of the disastrous Iran war,
both the timing and the venue are highly auspicious.
Donald Trump told reporters that he was coming to Ankara solely for Erdogan
—another small, symbolic victory.
The…

Erdogan Has Laid a Trap in Ankara
No matter what happens at the NATO summit, the Turkish strongman wins.

Hittade ett angrepp av någon form av svampväxt på stammen. Jag tror jag stoppade det genom att torka av allt, pensla med rikligt med Atamon, och låta växthuset, och pumpan, torka ut lite. Nu ser den så där äventyrlig ut igen efter att ha sett lite moloken ut i några dagar.
Jag klippte bort 10 småpumpor från den, lämnade 4. Den svarade med att skjuta ut nya rankor åt alla håll.
Hokkaidopumpa, är det ett annat namn för 'hydra'?

I’m not sure what sets us up to have better LMSes, but I don’t think institutions building them in-house is a viable answer.
One long-successful direction I like that has been gaining ground of late is course-specific web sites. I’m cheering the rise of static site generators, and hoping they continue to creep outside the confines of the techiest among us. A course site is not an LMS, but moving course •content• mostly out of the LMS simplifies the problem considerably!

From a strict contribution to global warming standpoint, how to decide how dark of exterior home paint should be used?
At the extremely hot end (e.g. Phoenix AZ), there might be a clear answer, but what about mid-continent where we need significant amounts of both heating & cooling?
I think coming up with anything other than a guess would require a lot of calculations based on a lot of variables, such as latitude (sun angles) and heating efficiency.

So, mal in "Digimon Beatbreak" reingeschaut: In einer dystopischen (?) Zukunft hat jeder einen ei-förmigen elektronischen Begleiter (ein Ei-Phone, haha!). Aus denen schlüpfen durch technische Fehler gelegentlich Digimon, die dann Menschen angreifen, ihnen Energie rauben und sie in ein Koma versetzten können. Der Protagonist hat eine besondere Energie und erhält ein Digimon als kämpfenden Begleiter, nachdem sein Bruder in ein solches Koma versetzt wurde. Er schließt sich dann den Ka…
