The text in the screenshot is exactly what the Hebrew scripture “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” is warning against. People think of that text as an endorsement of revenge, but it’s not; it is a •limit• on retribution. It says that the magnitude of punishment must not exceed the magnitude of the crime.

⚠️ FAKE NEWS ALERT ⚠️
I'm unreposting and issuing a correction to a viral post going around in which Jeff Bezos is purported to have said:
"Biological limits are real, but digital potential is infinite. If we starve our data infrastructure of cooling resources just to sustain baseline human comfort, we are actively delaying the birth of a super-intelligence that could solve all of our resource problems in the first place."
The story (from ThePrint dot in) cla…

Winners of the 2025 Close-Up Photographer of the Year #nature #photography

Emerald Glow. 3rd Place, Young. A Cuban tree frog in the photographer’s backyard in Florida. Hawkins-Kimmel: “During the heat of the day, I uncovered this Cuban tree frog hiding in the leaf of a banana tree in my backyard. The frog was very calm and allowed me to slip a flashlight under the leaf to create this effect. My 100mm lens ensured that I didn’t need to get too close, so as not to stress out the frog.”
In the Crowd. Finalist, Young. A group of flamingos in Camargue, France. Godin: “It was the courtship season for flamingos. They were constantly lowering and raising their heads. I had this photo in mind and wanted one flamingo to be sharp in the middle of other blurred flamingos. So I concentrated on one particular flamingo and followed it with my eyes, only pressing the shutter button when it was surrounded by several other flamingo heads.”
Inside the Pack. 2nd Place, Animals. Arctic wolves on the sea ice in a frozen fjord on Ellesmere Island, Canada. Eshel: “Lying on the sea ice of a frozen fjord, I experienced a moment of pure magic when a pack of Arctic wolves approached me out of sheer curiosity. They came so close I could feel their breath, yet I never sensed aggression, only wonder. These wolves, unlike others, have never been hunted or threatened by humans. In the remote wilderness of northern Ellesmere Island, they have no…
Spider Web. 3rd Place, Animals. A Eurasian beaver approaches a spider’s web in Kiskunság National Park, Hungary. Máté: “Years ago, I managed to intervene at the last minute to stop the water department from clear-cutting trees along a 2km stretch of canal. Since then, we’ve worked together. I monitor and notify them of any trees obstructing water traffic, while they avoid unnecessary clear-cutting, preserving a thriving habitat. Beavers returned to this area in 2015, nearly two centuries after …

This will get better when the rack kit for the SPD3303X-E comes in but for now it's just sitting on a shelf.
Now I have a DUMPTRUCK plus the STM32MP2 x Kintex-7 test board all wired up with power, jtag, annd serial console for remote firmware/gateware dev work.
Free bench space, coming soon (slowly)

That PC whose fan dropped off the other week has been bodged into working. I used a couple of plastic strips and motherboard mounts to hold them to the board with screws in the right place for the heatsink; but I found it needed more pressure on the fan for it to make good contact with the CPU, especially at the top; so outcomes the wood. This is working reasonably well; although the wedge positioning is a bit touchy to get it right.

A PC case; with a chunk of wood and a wedge of wood pressing down on the CPU heatsink.

People Before Profit's bill to sanction the state of Israel is coming to the Dšil this week. There's a petition here calling on the TDs in the Dšil to back the bill. I've signed, please join me:

Pass the Sanctions Against the State of Israel Bill
Dear Deputies, We call on you to vote in favour of the Sanctions Against the State of Israel Bill 2026 when it comes before the Dáil.  The bill is being proposed by Richard Boyd Barrett (People Before Profit) but it comes from the long-held mass movement demand for sanctions on the state of Israel.  It will be debated on 14 May and the vote in the Dáil is due to take place on 20 May. For almost three years, the world has witnessed the genocidal destruction of Gaza  - the mass killing of...

This is a pretty solid assessment of Where We (for a given value of “we”) Are

So this is getting appropriately roasted - this is not a navy problem, but a shore-based fires problem. It is also a failure to understand the situation: Trump tried to overthrow the regime and personally kill its leaders. He doesn't have a lot of 'threat' left. EU frigates won't change that.

We’re at the point where we can no longer afford easily-scared “normies.” We need to convert, not coddle. A lot more people need to die in the process of turning around the fascist trend, and pointing out the fascists as they depart is a positive thing. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

My own biased interpretation of this is that we should have doubled and tripled our efforts to harangue every politician and every business that stayed on Twitter after it stopped being Twitter. All that energy focused on shaming individuals (who often had greater network effects to overcome and less capacity to move) should have gone towards institutions instead.
