A return to nuclear power is at the heart of Japan’s energy policy
-- but, in the wake of the 2011 disaster,
residents’ fears about tsunamis, earthquakes and evacuation plans remain
Activity around the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant is reaching its peak:
workers remove earth to expand the width of a main road,
while lorries arrive at its heavily guarded entrance.
When all seven of its reactors are working, Kashiwazaki-Kariwa generates 8.2 gigawatt…
Fuck, no, Apple. I was forced to update to iOS 26 due to lack of security updates for 18 on devices that can run 26 (i.e., due to extortion) but you’re not infecting my Mac with Liquid Ass.
Notice the dark pattern of pestering you in hopes you will accidentally hit the “Restart” button even though you’ve specifically turned off auto updates. Microsoft-level disrespect for consent here.
(Not surprising from a company that gives golden awards to fascists.)

Email purporting to come from Netflix saying that they've been unable to
"auto-recharge your membership because you have reached your monthly spending limit. We would love to have you back. If you change your mind, simply restart your membership and update your payment details ...blah blah"
Very clever of them since I've never had, nor ever will have, a netflix account.
Email comes from a Polish domain, apparently.

Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, burned the books and had scholars killed as he tightened his grip on the former warring kingdoms and set out to restart history with himself as the prime creator. Thousands of years later, Saloth Sâr, a Cambodian schoolteacher, renamed himself Pol Pot and declared a new "Year Zero" as he began murdering everyone with an education (or even wearing eyeglasses). Destroying the past isn't just a literary device from Orwell. It's how t…
Well, it now came to this: I have to install an add-on in #LibreWolf (#Firefox fork) as well on my almost naked #Chromium in order to get reliable session resume after browser restart:
Sable Offshore Corp. has successfully petitioned federal authorities to assume regulatory authority over its Santa Barbara County oil and gas pipelines
-- another move in the company’s attempts to restart production.
The Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration decided on Wednesday that two Santa Barbara County pipelines operated by Sable are interstate pipelines,
removing them from state authority.”

Yeah lmao just tested and I don’t even need to reboot the console, just restart the game
Weight data and played days don’t seem to be moved tho, just the rankings
(I do have an even older nnid account that I don’t use anymore, tho that has a different name (just “oldaccound” now) and it didn’t steal any saves)
(I don’t really remember if when moving to Pretendo I moved the mii and created a new similar one for the old account or if it was the other way around and I just created a similar mii to the new one)
(Back then I did try moving the save data between the accounts with a SaveMii, but it didn’t work for Wii Fit U (or for mk8, tho haven’t had issues with that one))

Ran into a weird issue with macOS and iTerm 2 while experimenting with #talos over the weekend.
Short version: I had to quit iTerm, reset the local network security permission for it and restart it before I could run talosctl from my a session in iTerm. Maddeningly it was working from a session in Terminal.app
The long version is at #homelab #iterm2
The #homelab is noodling all our >5000 documents for the initial #paperless import. Kinda stupid that paperless bluntly requeues everything *in addition again* when you restart it (e.g. to fine tune import settings).
Ran across this today.

Been trying for 6 days now to complete an upload onto FilmHub. Can't figure out if the ISP/router/safari/content blocker is causing the upload to interrupt every 20min or so. Have to manually restart it every time, and it'll be a miracle if the file isn't corrupted in the end.
The Pixel's Android 16 is the most distressingly buggy shit I've ever had foisted on me by a phone manufacturer. It's like using a beta. I have to restart 1-2x per day when parts of the shell just suddenly fail. Statusbar disappears, system gets stuck on the lock screen, back button stops working, space bar starts inserting double-taps with each press-- the list goes on. The only thing worse is having to use iOS.
Finally did something I've been meaning to do for a LONG time, fully disabled Defender on this HP laptop with Windows 10. Been driving me nuts, when I need to test things, and how Defender restarts automatically if you restart your laptop. The guide I found that was amazing and worked was this: https:…

Richard Murphy, who previously advocated green growth, gets there in the end.
"The real challenge we face is not how to restart a growth engine that has already driven us to the edge of environmental collapse. It is how to redesign the economy so that the resources we already have are used to meet human and ecological needs.
Growth is not coming back — and nor should our democracy depend upon it."
I tried #Librepods on Manjaro desktop and (apart from compiling Rust code linux/rust PR branch, it’s pretty much plug-n-play.

OK, 30 Tage ging's gut. Ich hab jetzt die Kühlkörper drauf und auch schon ein 2025.12. update eingespielt. Dann war heute nacht die Datenbank weg. Ohne Restart / Update oder irgendwas anderes sichtbares gibt es nun keinerlei Daten mehr vor ca. 04:20 Uhr heute Nacht.
Kein irgendwie auffälliges Ereignis in den Logs, noch massenhaft Speicher frei, sonst alles normal.
Die Maschinen sollen mir helfen nicht andersrum. ![]()

Home assistant is too unreliable. I run it on the Raspberry Pi4B with an external HDD for storage and every now and then it just stops responding or does not boot after an update or does not update or ... Sometimes a restart helps, sometimes I need to reinstall and get everything from the backup. Now today I ran into the "missing shutdown button":
