Claude Sonnet 4 describes the image as: "This image shows a scene from the British science fiction series "Blake's 7," set in the futuristic interior of the spacecraft Liberator. In the foreground, a man in a grey uniform with curly dark hair embraces a blonde woman in a sparkly, sequined top. The woman appears distressed, burying her face against him in an emotional moment. 

The setting has the show's characteristic high-tech aesthetic with metallic surfaces, hexagonal wall panels, and ambien…

US-Tech-Giganten wie Meta treffen sich in Brüssel auffällig oft mit rechts-außen-Abgeordneten – 38 Treffen in 18 Monaten statt nur einem früher. Dass dabei der digitale Omnibus im Fokus steht und ultrarechte Mehrheiten gesucht werden, ist mehr als Lobbyarbeit: Es ist ein Alarmsignal für Demokratie und Digitalisierungspolitik. | #DerStandard🧵

I got a UPerfect 15.6" portable monitor (4k) as a second screen and am quite impressed with it, particularly for the very low price. Main problem is I am having a hard time finding a good stand to use it as a desktop monitor. Very few options for something this small!

Made a little logo for JSDB (JavaScript Database)
Better (six years) late than never? :)
#JavaScriptDatabase

JavaScript Database (JSDB) logo: it’s the common flowchart symbol for a database (stacked cylinders based on the disk packs used in early computing) on the lower right-hand corner of a yellow background. The yellow is the colour of the JavaScript icon and the location of the database symbol matches where the JS letters are on the JavaScript logo.

The other, Applejack, has light yellow hair, a Stetson hat and a green scarf, and is relaxing with her eyes closed.

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 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.
