Enttäuschung für die Forschung: Asteroid 2024 YR₄ wird den Mond klar verfehlen
Der Asteroid 2024 YR₄ hat die Öffentlichkeit vor einem Jahr in Atem gehalten. Jetzt ist unerwartet früh klar, dass er auch für den Mond keine Gefahr darstellt.

Every dictator guilty of crimes against humanity¹ deserves to be arrested and sent directly to The Hague.
What makes the U.S.' arrest of #Maduro problematic is the potentially disproportionate military strike and the lack of an ICC warrant – the one that Argentina had demanded in 2024.² #Venezuela

Found an old power bill while cleaning up. In the end of 2018 I was paying 9.05 c/kWh for the first 600 kWh and 10.94 above.
Now it's 15.1 and 17.0.
The rate of increase was very much nonlinear though: from October 2018 to October 2024 (six years) the tier 1 rate only climbed by 27%.
It went up 10.5% in 2024 and 20.7% in 2025 alone.

View a large rock tower behind another lower mountain peak near a pass with a small chapel (good for appreciating the scale). The mountain nearest to the pass has visible tunnel openings at its base above the talus fields. These are remnants of the frontline from world war I. Massive cumulus clouds are forming in the background, above them clear blue sky. The entire scene is bathed in warm late afternoon light of October. All the grass patches have turned into a rich coffee brown.

This 1995–2025 timeline shows the sales share of (B)EVs by month. It was almost non-existent until 2012 and will be almost completely dominant by 2022.

A nice obituary from December 31, 2024 about my Great Uncle Herman Neufeld (my mom's Uncle).
I never really knew him as I grew up 4000km away... but he had a positive impact on people, especially Jamaican workers, in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
"Herman, who died Dec. 31, became very involved in the Niagara Workers Welcome services and other outreach programs. He considered the farmworkers his friends and neighbours, and treated them as such."

The US Geological Survey said it was the 42nd episode of lava fountains since the current series of intermittent eruptions began in December 2024.
