Stephen Miller is turning the US state department into an
‘anti-immigration machine’
Miller, the president’s immigration czar,
in recent months has turned the state department’s visa and refugee operations into what some current and former diplomats have described as a personal fiefdom.
Each morning, usually at 10am,
a small circle of conservative diplomats allied with Miller,
-- including those who have assumed control of the state department’s consular a…

"Australian State Secures Federal Support to Achieve 100% Net Renewables Goal by 2027"
#Australia #Energy #Renewables

Australian State Secures Federal Support to Achieve 100% Net Renewables Goal by 2027 | Happy Eco News
South Australia has secured federal funding to meet its 100% net renewables goal by 2027. The support will add at least 1 gigawatt of wind and solar power plus 400 megawatts of battery storage—enough to power hundreds of thousands of homes—cementing the state’s global leadership in the clean energy transition.

One of my favorite mastodon features is the time-based muting. Someone's posting through (suffering, lol) a football game, and I have less than zero interest in sportsball? But I generally enjoy following them? Mute them for 1 hour (or 6 hours), and my screen is no longer littered with crap about touchzonegoalruns.
Or maybe you don't want to see my stupid replies to a dumb horror movie from 40 years ago? Mute me for an hour or two, and voila!

Look at all these cool Muni routes that were eliminated in 2009 budget cuts and didn't come back 😭 Potrero Hill used to have *three* north-south bus routes where now it has one. The 53 Southern Heights was lost in 2009, the 10 Townsend in 2020, and only the 19 Polk is left.

Was Spotify ums verrecken nicht hinkriegt oder nicht hinkriegen will: Lautstärke innerhalb einer Playlist normalisieren. Zefix. #uxfromhell

Friday was an adventure in tech futility. Started with a gifted laptop, Dell Latitude, and the simple task of wiping its poor excuse for an OS and installing something sensible.
#Ubuntu wasn't it. OMG Ubuntu, what HAVE you done?! Tried first #UbuntuStudio then stock Ubuntu, 24.04, 25.04, 25.11, all the installers simply hung, no log, no journalctl, CPU chugging but nada detectable action, even hours later, just "Preparing…"
Net advice is old, of course, but points to the snap bootstrap service, fix has no effect but Kee-riced look at the mount table?! Snaps crackle and pop all over! Wtf, why? 🤯
And it is tedious. These 'DVD' iso files are 7GB, so, after 6 hours frustration, I thought, let's try something smaller to cut the turnaround time. #Debian13 simple bare-bones net-install seemed a good candidate …
And it was. Seemless install. 😊

Earlier this year, DHS added millions of Americans’ Social Security data to the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements, or SAVE, system,
allowing officials to use the tool to conduct bulk searches of voter rolls for the first time.
According to the document filed Thursday, SAVE also recently expanded to include passport and visa information.
Incorporating driver’s license information would allow election officials whose rolls don’t include voters’ Social Security …

It’s the latest step in an unprecedented initiative to pool confidential data that the Trump administration claims will help identify noncitizens on voter rolls and tighten immigration enforcement.

Time to make another bass tab/sheet music, and this time it's for _Wood Carving Partita_ by Michiru Yamane from _Castlevania: Symphony of the Night_. This one is kind of a pain, but it feels really great when you nail a section after picking apart the left-hand from the piano and make it (1) playable on a four string, and (2) move the notes around so it works well with the music overall. Still have a lot of work and tweaking before it's even close to ready.

Психороман для незакомплексованных девушек

Die Analyse von t-online zur Führungsriege der AfD-Jugend ist unmissverständlich: Jean-Pascal Hohm ist "selbstverständlich rechtsextrem". Er will die Jugend „radikal diszipliniert“ auf Kurs bringen und forderte sie auf, „wehrhaft zu werden“. Diese Forderungen, gepaart mit seiner Verbindung zu Neonazi-Milieus, sind keine jugendliche Eskapade, sondern Kern einer gesichert rechtsextremen Strömung. Die Radikalität ist Programm.

Neuer AfD-Jugend-Chef: Höcke ist sein Vorbild
Die AfD gründet an diesem Wochenende eine neue Jugendorganisation. Die soll noch schlagkräftiger werden, noch einflussreicher bei der deutschen Jugend – und noch radikaler. Das zeigt schon ihr designierter Chef.

Chinese researchers created biodegradable bamboo plastic with 110 MPa tensile strength that decomposes in soil within 50 days. Published in Nature Communications (October 2025), the material outperforms petroleum-based plastics in terms of strength and stability, while maintaining 90% of its original strength after recycling. This makes it a renewable and recyclable alternative for industrial use.
