Heat claimed more than 200,000 lives in Europe since 2022: WHO
More than 200,000 lives have been lost to the "silent killer" of heat in Europe since 2022, the World Health Organization said Thursday, after a heat wave saw some countries record their highest-ever May temperatures.

Sairaaksi kasvatettu lohi | MOT
Suomen myydyin kala on kuolemansairas. Yli 50 miljoonaa Norjassa kasvatettua lohta kuolee joka vuosi stressiin ja sydänsairauksiin. MOT selvitti, millaisissa oloissa suomalaisten suosikkiruoka kasvaa.

Heute vor 3 Jahren: Am 14. Juni 2023 erklärte der belarussische Präsident Aleksander Lukaschenko in einem Fernsehinterview mit dem russischen Staatssender Russia-1, dass #Belarus, wie am 25.03.23 durch Putin angekündigt, #Kernwaffen von Russland erhalten habe.

Ambassador Bridget Brink here.
Putin just unleashed a nuclear-capable ballistic missile in the heart of Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv.
This was part of one of the biggest attacks on the capital since the start of Russia’s war in 2022.
And the Russians say this is just the “beginning” of a new wave of strikes on “decision-making centers” in Kyiv. 
And what has Trump or Vance or even Rubio said?
-- Nothing.
Instead, last week they extended the waiver of sanction…

Lazyweb: Has anybody spotted a news article or data source that quantifies the voter composition of the new TN districts — as Harris/Trump, or 2022 House results, or whatever? I’m wondering just how far underwater each of the 9 new districts is.

Trump bricht bei „Meet the Press" (NBC) das Interview ab, als Moderatorin Kristen Welker ihn nach Belegen für seine „rigged elections"-Behauptung fragt. Seine Antwort: „Ich muss nur hinschauen." Auf ihren Einwand, das sei kein Beweis, beschimpft er NBC, ABC, CBS & CNN als „krumme Sender" und geht. Belege? Wie immer: keine. NBC stufte danach mehrere Aussagen als falsch ein. Schon 2022 lief ein NPR-Interview genauso.

If Multicast is the Answer -- What was the Question?
Multicast is (almost) as old as the Internet, having become a tool for increasing network efficiency but also enabling destination discovery in a number of key use cases, although misaligned economic interests have limited its deployment to domain-local usages. But recent advances in multicast technologies as well as the identification of new use cases for which IP multicast may be ill fitted yet network-level support may be desirable motivate to re-think old perceptions of multicast and its us…

Weil ich gerade sehr merkwürdige Follower kriege und es ja wohl auch eine Schwemme an (schlafenden) Fake-Accounts gibt:
Accounts ohne Bio und ohne irgendwelche Beiträge, anhand derer ich erkennen kann, dass es sich um eine echte interessierte Person handelt, entferne ich.
Bei Gelegenheit werde ich diesen Sommer in den Ferien auch mal aufräumen und inaktive Accounts rauswerfen.
Manche sind nach 2022/23 ganz offensichtlich einfach weitergezogen.
