Bei heißen Wetterverhältnissen droht bald wieder schlechte Luft in den Städten.
Meine Idee statt Spritpreisbremse:
Wir führen in den jeweiligen Sommerferien das Deutschlandticket auf Probe ein!
Speziell für Autofahrer, die dann ihren Schlüssel abgeben können. Dafür Schnupperpreis 63€ für die 6 Wochen, ohne Abo.
In dieser Zeit sind die Busse und Bahnen weniger ausgelastet und es gibt weniger Gedränge in der Rushhour, auch ohne Kapazität auszuweiten. Das würde auch die S…

In the country’s wealthiest enclaves, concealment has become the defining aspect of the contemporary kitchen.
What began with “appliance garages”
and refrigerators and dishwashers that look like cabinets
has evolved into a far more ambitious practice of disguise,
with custom millwork and technology obscuring everything from sinks and cooktops to electrical outlets and small appliances.

In New Luxury Kitchens, Everything Is Hidden
Camouflaging the fridge is just the beginning for high-end kitchens.

Democrats have seized on the deaths of three US troops killed in Iranian strikes to urge Donald Trump to urgently reverse his resumption of the war with Iran amid widespread anxiety over climbing casualties.
Even as US forces launched a 10th consecutive wave of attacks against Iranian targets,

First chart is logarithmical because starting this effort showed how bad performance was.
The second chart is closer to "This is where SwiftTerm" stands compared to Ghostty today. In the second chart, the yellow bar is where I am at, ghostty in green.
To get this, I will have to break API compatibility in SwiftTerm, so will need to split 1.x vs 2.x but the Delegate pattern with "weak" variables is just too damn expensive as well as things that at the time lo…

The Australian state of Victoria was due to enforce a legal right to work from home starting September 2026.
But just weeks away from its implementation, the new premier, Ben Carroll, has announced a year’s delay in response to fierce business opposition.
Thousands of miles away, in Portugal, parents of young children already have a legal right to work from home without needing their employers’ approval.
