Lindsey Halligan out as U.S. attorney following pressure from judges
Lindsey Halligan,
a Trump administration lawyer who was named head of a key U.S. attorney’s office in Virginia last year
with instructions to seek criminal charges against Donald Trump’s perceived political adversaries,
left her post at the Justice Department on Tuesday.

Halligan’s departure followed a pair of extraordinary moves by two federal judges
who issued court orders hours earlie…

3 days ago the RSS feed of planet.ubuntu.com stopped working due to a TLS cert error.
I THINK it's due to them overhauling & moving it to a github-hosted replacement, but as this was done just by redirecting DNS the new host doesn't have a TLS cert with the correct name. If so, this means that people following the old RSS feed can't do so any more and they got no notice that this was going to happen.
I don't know for sure though because my query remains unansw…

So my car has been complaining I should put some exhaust emissions neutralizing fluid in it. A thing they call AdBlue I believe.
Bought a big 10l drum of the stuff ready to fill up.
But when I look at where I expect to find the hole for filling it, I just find a capped off tube and a warning sticker "See the GM Citreon Berlingo Blaze manual" for the adblue refilling hole.
Only user manual I have is the one telling me to expect it there.
The car was converted for wheelchair access at some point in its life. I think they are referring to the wheelchair-adaption manual, which the seller did not give me.
🤔
Have been looking around the car as much as I can for a couple of hours this morning to no avail. Where have they hidden this hole to fill up adblue?
Maybe it's under the engine or something now and you have to put the thing on stilts to find it?
🤷
Asked my mechanic about it and he says to bring it in on Monday. Gonna be a pain if I have to rip up the floorboards or something every year to refill that.

Don’t get me wrong - while using the fountain pen I am still trying to maintain good writing posture and I’m continuing to do my regular hand stretches.
But for a sense of the difference: before, I was happy with the fact that I managed to develop a good pain management routine to allow me to write like 2-3 pages at a time without convulsing in pain.
And now I can write 6 pages nonstop without even thinking or feeling anything. A short 5–10 minute rest and I can come back for more.
This is such a big deal to me. I was able to draw yesterday with a relaxed hand after spending hours writing notes. Before I’d only be able to do one or the other in a day!
And then I finished the evening by writing out a chapter of my novel by hand.
And today my hand is totally fine!!

Special shout out to Kerkez, whose only wrong step was the yellow card (which i thought pretty harsh). He’s been really good, patient instead of flinging crosses to nobody. But when he has made the cross, it’s been dangerous.
Ekitike is a star. What an absolute gem he is. Even in the play where his diagonal run was covered, his continuing possession pulls two players out of position. ❤️
Wirtz, goal a beauty, but his passing has been superb. Sees angles before they happen.

Perovskite solar cells just cleared a major hurdle toward commercialization.
Researchers developed a new two-dimensional interlayer that kept modules running at 95% efficiency after 5,000 hours of brutal light, heat, and UV exposure. The breakthrough uses neutral triazine molecules and co-crystal engineering that slots right into existing manufacturing lines.

Researchers achieve record perovskite solar module stability under light, heat, and UV stress
An international research team has developed a new two-dimensional perovskite interlayer based on a co-crystal engineering strategy for more robust perovskite films. It demonstrated improved performance in small area perovskite solar cells and, in a 48 cm2 module, contributed to retain 95% of initial efficiency after 5,000 h.
