The Trump regime's coordinated repression did not come from nowhere.
In 2024, TheNew York Times reported that the Trump transition team was already planning to use emergency powers, such as the one Trump invoked on June 7,
to confront political opponents who protest the administration.
While the Trump administration planned this move for about a year,
the deployment of troops in Los Angeles is the brutal culmination of a yearslong campaign to systematically erod…

Military Crackdown on LA Protests Portends Further Erosion of Everyone’s Rights
Governments at all levels from both parties have paved the way to an authoritarian response to dissent.

Hay grown for cattle consumes nearly half the water drawn from Colorado River, study finds https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2024-03-28/alfalfa-hay-beef-water-colorado-river

Hay consumes a vast share of the Colorado River's water
Much of the Colorado River's water is used for agriculture. A new study shows 46% of the water that is diverted is used to grow hay to feed cattle.

So, initial thoughts on MSFS 2024: holy crap, this is a ton of fun. Also, I'm a shitty pilot and I'm gonna need some pedals.

Probing the Turbulent Corona and Heliosphere Using Radio Spectral Imaging Observation during the Solar Conjunction of Crab Nebula
Measuring plasma parameters in the upper solar corona and inner heliosphere is challenging because of the region's weakly emissive nature and inaccessibility for most in situ observations. Radio imaging of broadened and distorted background astronomical radio sources during solar conjunction can provide unique constraints for the coronal material along the line of sight. In this study, we present radio spectral imaging observations of the Crab Nebula (Tau A) from June 9 to June 22, 2024 when it…

Cowboys breakout star cracks top-25 defensive tackle rankings https://www.si.com/nfl/cowboys/news/dallas-cowboys-breakout-star-cracks-top-25-defensive-tackle-rankings

Goals for today: finish up the coffee and grab my private pilots license (PPL) in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. First landing went well enough though a little rough on touch down. Definitely glad I picked up pedals though because having the rudder on the flight sticks rotation axis is not ideal...

Installation and performance of the 3rd Veto plane at the SND@LHC detector
During 2022/2023 the optimal inefficiency of the Veto system of the SND@LHC detector was measured to be $(7.8\pm2.8)\times10^{-8}$. To reduce this inefficiency, a third Veto plane was installed during the 2023-2024 Year End Technical Stop. In addition, the Veto system was lowered to cover the target fully, thereby increasing acceptance. This paper describes how the inefficiency of the Veto system was reduced from $7.8\times10^{-8}$ with an acceptance of about $64\%$ of the target area in 2022-2…
