A close-up of the CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow with long dark hair and a reddish-brown headband with a small central pendant. He has a mustache and is gesturing with both hands raised near their face, looking slightly to the left with a surprised expression. Large white text with a black outline is superimposed across the bottom of the frame, reading "WHY IS THE RAM GONE?"

Саме автентичних слів розширеного "художнього" лексикону мені не вистачає в перекладі коміксу. Часто здається, що текст виходить занадто сухим. Доводиться навмисно шукати по словнику щось менш поширене.
...а потім мешканці Бестемного пишуть, що не розуміють, що це означає.
Це також складно. Не факт, що люди так взагалі говорять. Постійні сумніви — а ну як я це слово неправильно використав? Або навіть правильно, але воно настільки застаріле, що вже не сприймається?

Underneath the hoodie, they wear a grey t-shirt that displays the text "MUSIC BAND" in gothic letters. The underside of the skateboard shows a colorful, cartoonish graphic.

Bruegel: the battery capacity in Europe's electric vehicles is 10 times the stationary battery capacity connected to the grid.
It really is a huge opportunity, and unfortunately still too often a missed one. Outdated, inflexible tariffs and metering and grid requirements are too often standing in the way. As a result, there is a lack of attractive offers for both home and public charging rewarding flexibility.

The battery capacity in Europe's electric vehicles is 10 times the stationary battery capacity connected to the grid. • Smart technologies for integrating EV charging into the grid will take on

Most of the analog blocks are duplicated twice so I'm wondering if this might be clock/frequency synthesis for TX and RX CDMA carrier frequencies?

Today at tech rehearsal, it was fine through some practice bits, but failed completely, "no power" for the actual rehearsal (I used the bass amp, so couldn't hear myself). Got it home, checked the fuse with a volt meter and a battery and I see voltage, Roland no longers offers manuals for the pre-GX edition, so wondering what happens next. I have a small practice amp inherited from Jerry Banks, so tomorrow's show may be untried, but it's good to go, but this ol' Cube ...

The greatest trick tech companies ever pulled was convincing people they were offering services for free.
They were never “free” since they were about lock-in, hurting competition, and shifting who was paying for things.

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.
An illustration featuring a DC BiDi Charger and a Smart Meter Gateway (SMGW). The charger is on the left with a sleek black design and an interface for controls. The SMGW, depicted on the right, is highlighted with a wireless symbol.
Graphic highlighting a "Bidirectional energy tariff" with "Volkswagen Naturstrom" prominently displayed, featuring a modern, tech-inspired design in shades of purple and green. An arrow points right, suggesting further information or action.

A comment from Youtube by redblack9618, concerning the attached video with the new male player model for Satisfactory:

"Look, facts don't care about your feelings. Science tells us that 1: life begins at conception, 2: all fetuses begin female and differentiate later in development, and 3: you can't change your biological sex, and therefore the default is being a WOMAN. Get this woke "male model" nonsense out of my video games, I hate when you shove politics down out throats!"

Звісно, не обійшлося без дрібних речей по типу напівзатоплених уранових шахт, в яких Лара купається в пуховичку і мило покашлює, значків "Знак якості СРСР" на воротах концтабору та динаміту (який в реальності чорта з два совки довірили б ув'язненим).
А, ну і глибоко в душі Лара — злобний агент НАТО. Та й вся гра страшна. Вважаю, її (а краще всю серію) треба в РФ заборонити.

Big Tech ist Meister der Steuervermeidung. Die Politik reagiert mit einem „Plattform-Soli“. Doch laut Michael Kolain greift die Idee zu kurz: Sonderabgaben haben enge verfassungsrechtliche Grenzen – und selbst wenn sie kommen, bleibt die eigentliche Frage ungelöst: Wie besteuert man digitale Gewinne wirklich dort, wo sie entstehen?

A sunny autumn scene features two ponies from MLP sitting in the grass under a large tree with yellow and orange leaves. One character, Applebloom, wears a pink bow, has a yellow leaf on her hair and is absent-mindedly eating a red apple. The other, Applejack, has light yellow hair, a Stetson hat and a green scarf, and is relaxing with her eyes closed. In the background, a red barn with a weather vane and a white fence is visible, along with a garden gate and scattered fallen leaves. The sky is…

#games #Rimworld

A cartoon-style pig-like humanoid character is depicted against a dark purple to pink gradient background. The character has gray skin with red stripes across its face, snout, and neck, and brown hair styled in a mohawk on top of its head with a braid on one side. It features prominent white tusks, red eyes, and a stern, focused expression. The figure wears light gray armor with purple shoulder pads and metallic silver accents on the chest plate and belt.
