It's #TacoTuesday 🌮
Trump announced that he will suspend his threatened bombing of Iran’s energy infrastructure and bridges for ...(wait for it) ... two weeks.
The New York Times is reporting that Iran has accepted Pakistan’s two-week cease-fire proposal following frantic diplomatic efforts.
The newspaper quotes Iranian officials as saying the ceasefire was approved by the new sup…

"One proves political maturity by not banging on about injustice, by not troubling too much the rich and powerful. To try it out, simply stand in front of a mirror and slowly declare yourself to be “pro-business and pro-worker”. If you can do that without flinching at the obvious contradiction, then congratulations! You too can be prime minister"
This isn't my analysis of why #Starmer

As Labour heads for a wipeout, a lesson: never fall for the ‘adults in the room’ line again
Presenting himself as a serious, sensible ‘grownup’ was essential to Starmer’s rise to power. His premiership has revealed how hollow that message is, says Guardian columnist Aditya Chakrabortty

Feeling this one hard.
[via my old friend, Martin_FFF]

Two people holding hands, looking out the window of a high-rise building at a dark cityscape. Overlaid text: "The world turning to shit" , on one person's back "Me", on the other person's back "Star Trek". I think it's a still from a film, but I'm not sure which one.

Just pulled a now empty PDU and tidied up a few cables. Main IT rack is looking pretty good now.
Everything below the 1GbaseT switches (except the PoE injector) is pulling a combined total of just under 1 kW; the rest isn't metered yet.

Front view of a server rack with five 2U servers, a 4U, two half width 1U QSFP28/QSFP+ switches, and three 1.5U 1G switches flanked by lots of decently neatly organized fiber and cat5 cables
Bottom half of the rack showing fiber coming off the switches

Running independent websites is like planting flowers in front of your plot, on the public lane that the municipality doesn't care about.
You have to deal with people trampling over them because the pavement is not wide enough for their groups. The junk flying over from the nearby supermarket. Asshole neighbor throwing empty alcohol bottles out. Dog shit. And if you succeed nevertheless, people will just come over and dig it all out, to take into their own gardens.
And then some bright libertarian will come and tell you that you should be grateful and praise their ingenuity.

Kentmere PAN 400 (FF) ##English Black-and-white photograph of a traditional Chinese temple entrance. The scene features a large, ornate building with a multi-tiered, curved roof adorned with intricate eaves. The structure is supported by tall, carved stone pillars. In front of the temple, a group of people stands and walks on a wide, stone-paved pathway. The pathway is flanked by low, decorative stone railings. Tall trees with bare branches frame the top of the image, adding depth and contrast…
Kentmere PAN 400 (FF) ##English Black-and-white close-up of the roof of a traditional Chinese building. The roof is highly detailed, with multiple layers of curved tiles and ornate carvings. At the peak, there is a decorative ridge with intricate designs, including a small pavilion-like structure. The eaves are adorned with elaborate patterns, and a vertical plaque with Chinese characters is visible in the center. ##中文 黑白照片，特写镜头拍摄的是一座传统中国建筑的屋顶。屋顶装饰精美，有多层弯曲的瓦片和精美的雕刻。屋脊处有一个装饰性的脊饰，包含一个小亭子状的结构。屋檐饰…

The pillar is wrapped by a detailed stone sculpture of a dragon, its body coiled around the column. The dragon's head is positioned at the top, facing outward. The building behind the pillar has a wooden structure with visible beams and a tiled roof. A person stands partially visible in the background. ##中文 黑白照片，拍摄的是一根位于传统中国建筑前的雕刻石柱。石柱上缠绕着一个详细的石龙雕塑，龙身环绕在柱子上，龙头位于顶部，面向外…

A large, leafless tree with twisted branches dominates the foreground, partially obscuring the roof. The roof features layered, curved tiles typical of classical Chinese architecture. The image captures the contrast between the organic shapes of the tree and the structured lines of the building. ##中文 黑白照片，拍摄的是一座传统中国建筑的瓦屋顶。前景是一棵枝干扭曲的大树，树叶已落，部分遮挡了屋顶。屋顶采用典型的中国古典建筑层叠弯曲的瓦片。照片展现了树木有机形态与建筑结…

Wow, look at the value added by a Journal formatting this article, that probably cost a couple of thousand € taxpayers money. #rant #academicchatter #sorry_not_sorry

Screenshot of part of a scientific paper, top and bottom border indicate some more text, not readable, middle is that start of a section, headline: "Introduction" and then three columns of text following that only consist of two lines each.

The search for the liquid-liquid critical point in supercooled water is challenging
owing to rapid crystallization.
We studied supercooled water at timescales before ice formation
by heating high- and low-density amorphous ices
using infrared ultrafast laser pulses,
followed by x-ray scattering.
By varying the pump laser fluence,
we accessed liquid states straddling the predicted critical point.
We observed a crossover from a discontinuous t…
