@cdarwin@c.im2024:
Turkey’s Yusuf Dikeç didn’t need special gear to win a silver medal for Olympic shooting,
and viewers couldn’t get enough of his understated brilliance.
The Turkish shooter took part in the 10-meter air pistol mixed team competition on Wednesday in a T-shirt
and what looked like regular reading glasses,
a contrast from other competitors who utilized specific lenses or bulky ear protectors.
“I shoot with both eyes,
most shooters do it with one.

Biden screwed up the 2024 election and handed it to trump by:
- Violating his promise to be a one-term President.
- Failing to timely reinforce and support D party aspirants (he should have begun to do this in year 2023.)
- Failing to use presidential powers to derail trump's return and establish D party priorities while he had the Congressional votes to do so.
- Being "Mr. Nice Guy" and using euphe…

@azonenberg@ioc.exchangeGot my power bill for May. Net consumption was 2.73 MWh, an all-time low by a signficant margin (3.3 MWh in April 2026, and 3.77 MWh in July 2024, are the previous records).
The final bill after taxes and fees was $595, not *quite* an all time low (I paid $582 in July 2024) but that was for 3.7 MWh and I'm now paying almost as much for 2.7 - yay rate increases. If I can generate a touch more solar in June I might break the all-time low though.

@karlauerbach@sfba.socialGee, I guess to this judge, being dead is not a valid excuse to not appear at a hearing.
This judge is a Obama appointee - but she worked a Peoplesoft, a company that in my opinion seemed to follow a silicon valley tradition of management-by-brutality. (Peoplesoft was acquired by Oracle, a company run by Larry Ellison - an organization and person with an "interesting" way of dealing with the world and people.)

@cosmos4u@scicomm.xyzJust noted interesting parallels between #ArtemisII and Apollo 11 and 12, involving #SolarEclipses, either by the close Moon or by the Earth: during or after each of the three missions the astronauts described these events as their visual highlights. The Artemis II crew has done this several times - and in the post-flight press conference after #Apollo11 Neil Armstrong did it, too, in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yz6nzutr7RU#t=42m19s in the segment from 42:20 (in the transcript https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED059051.pdf on PDF pages 21--22).
What he was describing is the eclipse just before arrival at the Moon of which I had re-processed the best image in https://www.facebook.com/dan.fischer.393/posts/pfbid02mf6UK3L2j5SgPiQsJk9JVYmo6XvZwDDZ23BYpXwJPDszaSpUYzuinkMyHzh9RF8Rl -> https://skyweek.wordpress.com/2024/07/25/allgemeines-live-blog-ab-dem-25-juli-2024/#Jul26 (and he is mistaking the zodiacal light they saw and photographed with the solar corona, the very same mistake made repeatedly during Artemis II).
Finally, a solar eclipse by the huge Earth observed from Apollo 12 just before splash-down was described by Alan Bean as "the most spectacular sight of the whole flight" while it happened: https://skyweek.wordpress.com/2019/11/24/eine-fette-sofi-fur-apollo-12-durch-die-erde/ (no images of totality were taken but Bean later painted the view from memory). The reason I had looked up the Apollo 11 presser was to see how this famously well-prepared post-lunar mission presentation looked like and when it happened: 19 days after their return.
