⚠️ Product may shrink when wet.

Photo from above of an orange kitten being washed from the neck down in the tub. Because the kitty's head is still fluffy and dry, the little guy's body looks comically small, like a fuzzy bobblehead on a tiny body. This photo is the cat equivalent of those baby bum mall photos.

Photo. A cormorant stands on a branch poking out of the water of a pond. Its wings are extended a bit out from its body, as though it’s drying them in the bright sunlight. Its neck is stretched up and its head is turned to its left. Its feathers are black, with hints of dark brown. The water behind it is green, matching the bird’s eye above a yellow beak. July 2023

When I saw the topic, I wasn't sure wether I should post a mountin photo or not. But as I have seen so many others doing so, I decided to also post this "view from above" from ~3 months ago when I went to this mountain and enjoyed not only the silence but also the view.
Enjoy!

A breathtaking alpine panorama unfolds in this image, capturing the stunning beauty of a snowy mountain landscape. The foreground features a snow-covered slope, its pristine white surface glistening under the bright sunlight. Footprints in the snow suggest recent activity, adding a touch of life to the serene scene.

Scattered across the slope are clusters of evergreen trees, their dark green foliage providing a striking contrast to the white snow. The trees add texture and depth to the scene, …

I went out into the wood to try to assess what dangerously unstable trees still standing in places where they could cause damage when they fall.
Needless to say, besides the two trees that have already collapsed above the house, there's at least one and possibly two unstable trees hanging over the house.
H'mmm...
#TheJoyOfCrofting

A tree in the wood, leaning about 30°, unsupported. Nothing terrible will happen when this one comes down, I think.
My house, from the back. You can see one tree that's broken off just above the top of the roof, and most of that tree is actually lying on the roof; but it has been for more than a year and I'm not worried about it. You can also see a tree leaning over the house, but it's hung up in the tree in front of the house and I don't think it will move.

What worries me more are the two trees to the right of the house, leaning towards it. One of them is definitely unstable.

Finally, Volkswagen is launching a V2G tariff in Germany. It is now scheduled for launch in Q4 2026.
Although Volkswagen was the first German car manufacturer to release bidirectional charging functionality in their vehicles, they are now behind BMW, Mercedes and Ford (whose EVs use VW technology) in terms of announcing an actual charger and tariff bundle.

An electric vehicle is plugged into a charging station against a wooden backdrop. Colorful lines suggest energy transfer. Text promotes a new energy transition initiative from Elli, mentioning V2G technology coming soon.
A white Volkswagen ID.4 electric vehicle is prominently displayed against a purple background. Smaller illustrations of various electric cars are scattered around, with the text "Electric vehicles based on the MEB platform" above.

"Faced with economic stagnation the elites are panicking. Wild eyed in the control room, they thrash around seeking to fix the unfixable, pushing all the buttons, pulling all the levers, to no avail, just making things worse. They try the old mantra “growth”, repeated endlessly, and given a priority above all else"

Coding is not equivalent with "here's the app that we can sell/rent".
Coding is learning. Coding is experimenting. Coding is preparing to maintain. Coding is an experience.
Indeed, for a corporation all the above do not matter. Even worse, it represents costs. Unnecessary costs.
There are many other unnecessary costs but those creating them will tend to ignore them as they are in the decision making positions.
