A record 274 climbers have reached the summit of Mount Everest from the Nepalese side in a single day
after a spring season that started late because of the threat of ice fall on the normal tourist route.
The climbers took advantage of the clear weather on Wednesday, said Rishi Ram Bhandari, of the Expedition Operators Association Nepal.
“This is the highest number of climbers in a single day so far,” Bhandari told Reuters, referring to the Nepali record, adding that the numb…

I sooo often don't have photos of the summit cross when I go to the #mountains . Don't ask me why. Maybe because I usually have people in the photo?
It was the same that day: I almost left without that photo when I stepped over the flowers and thought that they might be a cool foreground for the summit. And by focusing on the flowers and blurring the people, I also don't hav…

This image captures a serene and picturesque mountain summit, blending natural beauty with a touch of human presence. The foreground is dominated by vibrant blue gentian flowers, their striking color standing out against the rugged, rocky terrain. The flowers are in sharp focus, drawing the viewer's attention to their delicate petals and adding a sense of vitality to the scene. The background features a wooden cross, a common marker for mountain peaks, standing tall against the clear blue sky.…

Surfing Ability Summit page at 200% with my keyboard (as one does) and came across this weird control.
Turns out it’s a roled-up button that launches Microsoft Immersive reader. Which is crap at 200%, it turns out.
Anyway, use native HTML buttons and let users rely on their browser’s reader mode.

A book / speaker icon overflowing its container with dev tools showing it’s a div with a button role, an icon from a CSS glyph in an I element that has presentation role, and the button has both aria-label and title of “10:15 AM–11:15 AM | BRK010 - Building NeuroInclusive Employee Experiences | Room: McKinley Immersive Reader”.
The new view where the bottom half of the “Immersive Reader” is clipped, the lines of text run out of the viewport to the right with no scrollbar, the Play and Voice Settings buttons overlap one another, and the circle defining the bounds of Voice Settings is itself offset above the icon and mostly over the Play button.

Trump has recently clashed with a string of European leaders -- most lately Italy's Giorgia Meloni.
But luckily for NATO he still seems on good terms with Turkey's veteran leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
"Except for the fact that it was being held in Turkey by President Erdogan, I don't think I would have gone to it," Trump said last week.
The summit venue may also appeal: Erdogan's gargantuan marble-lined presidential palace.

Our #silentsunday was spent on a mountain trail half an hour from our home. About 400-500m elevation along such a trail. And we didn't meet anybody.
Maybe because the location is too unspectacular: no great summit views, no summit at all, nothing to buy drinks or food - just a trail through patches of sun and shade with quite a few flowers along the trail.
Later, we cycled t…

This image captures a serene and inviting forest trail, winding its way through a lush, mountainous landscape. The foreground features a narrow, well-trodden dirt path that meanders uphill, flanked by tall pine trees and sparse vegetation. The path is partially shaded by the towering trees, creating a mix of sunlight and shadow that adds depth and texture to the scene. The trees on either side of the trail are a mix of healthy green pines and some with bare, weathered trunks, adding a rustic a…

The meeting was behind closed doors and the White House didn’t offer an official readout afterwards,

That followed publi…

a couple of weeks a go we did a beautiful walk around a village nearby. No mountain, no summit, just a walk that we did a year ago as well.
But what is "usual" for me might not be for others. That's what I'm trying to keep in the back of my mind whenever I'm out and about and think, that a scene probably isn't worth a photo because it's too ... normal to me.
I wrote a bit about our walk:

The foreground is dominated by a lush, green meadow dotted with vibrant yellow dandelions, adding a splash of color and natural charm. The meadow stretches out, creating a sense of openness and serenity. A modern bench is positioned on the right side of the image, facing the breathtaking view.

attacking Western-backed Kurdish forces in Syria

Now, ahead of a NATO leaders summit in Ankara next week, the stars seem to have aligned for Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
