@cdarwin@c.imTennessee death row prisoner
Tony Carruthers was issued a one-year stay of execution last Thursday
after prison officials were unable to find a backup injection vein
in a botched execution attempt that left Carruthers suffering and in pain for over an hour.
Nashville reporter Steven Hale attended the execution and describes his and fellow witnesses’ confusion as they heard the sounds of what Carruthers’s attorneys are calling “torture.”

@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.socialI was told today that "capitalism" or, more accurately, German "Kapitalismus" is a leftist "Kampfbegriff", essentially an idiological term to influence public opinion, as I understand it.
I have never even thought about capitalism as something other than a normal word meaning a specific thing. Of course, people have different attitudes towards capitalism itself. Left-leaning people would regard it as negative.

@Archivist@social.linux.pizzaSo, I have judged C `std::unordered_map` for a quite a few years, but it appears that many of the performance issues were kinda resolved.

Another questionable win for C I guess.

Even the Covid pandemic and subsequent upsurge in inflation didn’t lead to financial upheaval.

Given this stability, it might take some effort to convince financial markets that another big one is around the corner.
