Next edition of our quarterly free village magazine is up on the blocks. Editorial meeting tonight and then I get started populating the layout. Paid adverts already placed–they pay for the printing–the rest is all volunteer work including delivery to 4k homes.
Have been building this with #affinity since 2023 (Quark before that). Good to give back to the community.

My county elected Moriarty in 2023, in the wake of her mealy predecessor (Michael Freeman) filing completely inadequate and doomed-to-fail charges against Derek Chauvin, until MN AG Keith Ellison yanked the case from him and refiled with charges that could (and did) actually win.

Until `interpolate-size` has more support, you may need script to animate `<details>`.
Until then, making the disclosed content a _peer_ to `<details>` is probably a bad idea.
Strapping on `aria-describedby`, `definition`, and `term` is just comedy.

I have no sympathy for Maduro or his regime, and would be happy for Venezuelans to replace it, but this looks very much like a takeover of a sovereign country for economic exploitation by force. And (yet another) terrible "might is right" precedent.

Cowboys Linebacker Delivers Powerful Response to Controversial Video https://heavy.com/sports/nfl/dallas-cowboys/cowboys-linebacker-delivers-powerful-response-to-controversial-video/

Mein Vater war (guter) Kunde im Mitarbeiter-Shop des Unternehmens, bei dem er 2004 nach 35 Jahren Betriebszugehörigkeit in Rente ging. Zuletzt hat er dort 2018 oder 2019 eingekauft, im Januar 2023 ist er verstorben. Ich habe den Shop mehrfach darüber informiert. Kurz vor Weihnachten erneut Werbepost an die Adresse des im Frühjahr 2022 verkauften Elternhauses. Ich überlege jetzt, mal den Datenschutzzuständigen ausfindig zu machen und anzufragen, ob das da alles DSGVO-konform abläuft.

Unfortunately I don't expect much. Some calls for restraint. Maybe some polite condemnation. The more likely the further west but nothing with teeth.

We are not getting independent (of the US) foreign policies until we have taken charge of our security and of critical financial and technology infrastructure.

Yes, they are even bragging about it.

But - besides the environmental insanity and the theft - it's doubtful it will even work out economically. I doubt they can get a return on what they'd need to invest any more. They'll need to plunder more than oil.

Yeah. It's even more sad for us living in the EU. We don't get to have a sovereign foreign policy until we have cut the dependency on the US for security, financial infra and tech platforms. Working discretely (and far too slowly) on it. Will it be better afterwards? Maybe, not sure.
