Trump's pardon of Rudi Guilliani
could wind up having a huge effect on election conspirators like Matthew Alan Laiss,
who is accused of voting in both Pennsylvania and Florida in the 2020 election.
According to a federal indictment handed down in September,
Laiss moved from Pennsylvania to Florida in August of 2020 and voted first with a mail-in ballot in Pennsylvania and then in person in Florida on election day.
Both votes were for Trump, Laiss’ lawyers …

On the formation of star-forming galaxies having anomalously low-metallicity regions: the role of galaxy interaction and CGM/IGM accretion
Gas accretion from both the circum-galactic medium (CGM)/inter-galatic medium (IGM) and interacting companion galaxy can dilute the gas phase metallicity of a galaxy. However, their relative contribution to the chemical evolution of galaxies remains to be quantified. To this end, in this work we study a sample of 510 star-forming galaxies (SFGs) having anomalously low-metallicity (ALM) regions selected from the MaNGA data available in the Data Release 17 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. ALM r…

A century of glaciers melting, condensed into a few seconds. Impressive video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQWfDRejcPw/?igsh=Zm51d2Qzb2xtNHM4

Michel Galati on Instagram: "A century of change condensed into a few seconds. In collaboration with @glacionaut I transformed historical and contemporary photographs of Swiss and Austrian glaciers into short AI-animated sequences (Dream Machine by @lumalabsai ). Each clip shows the passage from past to present. The climate has always changed, true, but never this fast. In the past two years alone, Swiss glaciers have lost more than 10% of their total volume (source: Swiss Academy of Sciences). What once took centuries now happens in decades. And yes, the music is The Four Seasons by Vivaldi. An homage to nature, and perhaps a reminder of what we stand to lose. 📍 Photos: @glacionaut 🎥 AI Animation: @flashologo 🗓️ Period: ca. 1875–2024 • 🇮🇹 Un secolo di cambiamento racchiuso in pochi secondi. In collaborazione con @glacionaut, ho trasformato fotografie storiche e contemporanee di alcuni ghiacciai svizzeri e austriaci in brevi sequenze animate con l’intelligenza artificiale (Dream Machine di @lumalabsai). Ogni clip mostra il passaggio dal passato al presente. Il clima è sempre cambiato, è vero, ma mai così rapidamente. Negli ultimi due anni i ghiacciai svizzeri hanno perso oltre il 10% del loro volume (fonte: Swiss Academy of Sciences). Ciò che un tempo accadeva in secoli, oggi avviene in decenni. E sì, la musica è Le Quattro Stagioni di Vivaldi. Un omaggio alla natura e, forse, un promemoria di ciò che rischiamo di perdere. 📍 Foto: @glacionaut 🎥 Animazioni AI: @flashologo 🗓️ Periodo: ca. 1875–2024 • • #ai #dreammachine #ray3 #imagetovideo #glaciers #switzerland #austria #climatchange #history"

I am having severe issues with LSPs.
Now it is Rust Analyzer.
Before I had OOMs with the Go LSP.
And I am not alone; there are many posts like this.
Regardless of editors.
People report it with VSCode and NeoVim.
I guess I will get back to Zed again for now.
Just the conveniences of auto-complete, going to definitions, keyboard-only use and nice integration with a terminal is what I'm after.
I know that IDEs have terminal panes, but they are cumbe…

Having slept on it, I think Lance Henriksen's character was absolutely right.
He left his young child perfectly safe: alone in the middle of nowhere, in charge of a convenience store full of goods and money, with six strange teenagers who'd asked me for beer before two of them couldn't wait to start showing off on dirt bikes and starting doing stunts next to the store.
And, when he returned to find his child badly injured, he did the right thing: picking him up witho…

I'm hoping Allan's analysis misses the mark on this one. Possibly Reform's first election victory in Scotland? Stranraer and the Rhins by-election preview.

By-Election Preview: Stranraer and the Rhins (Dumfries and Galloway) 20th of November 2025
The departure of an Independent with decades of service in an area the Conservatives have been falling to bits may open the door for Reform’s first Scottish victory.

Weight loss alone not enough to boost men's fertility
How men lose weight could affect their chances of having a baby, with new research from the University of Adelaide revealing healthy lifestyle behaviors seem more beneficial for improving fertility than weight loss itself.

Men (2022)
In the aftermath of a personal tragedy, Harper retreats alone to the beautiful English countryside, hoping to find a place to heal. But someone — or something — from the surrounding woods appears to be stalking her, and what begins as simmering dread becomes a fully-formed nightmare, inhabited by her darkest memories and fears.
