The bad craziness is just gushing out of Trump’s fevered brain cell now.
Donald Trump: "Illegal Migrants who are POURING INTO OUR COUNTRY, in record numbers, are taking the JOBS away from Black and Hispanic people who have held them for years. It is devastating for the Black and Hispanic patriots of our Nation. These jobs are not replaceable, and never will be because, under Comrade Kamala Harris, the Border will be WIDE OPEN and there will always be more people coming in, many of them terrorists and criminals, than jobs available. KAMALA IS KILLING BLACK AND HISPANIC HERITAGE, SHE IS KILLING THEIR LEGACY AND THEIR RIGHTS. REGISTER AND VOTE FOR YOUR ALL TIME FAVORITE PRESIDENT, ME. NOVEMBER 5TH WILL BE THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

Amazon continues its mission to be known as the worst employer in big tech with a 5-days a week in the office policy. This definitely fixes the issue of all the near empty buildings they had in Bellevue, WA a year or two ago.

Data centers use too much internet bandwidth, water, electricity, and financial investment dollars that could be better used elsewhere.

They are profligate hogs.

What an interesting texture. That concentric rhythm of bigger and smaller dots is so inviting
Close-up to almost microscopic levels
Probably too much colour, sorry.

Yeah, yeah. They do look better in monochrome. So here you go. Last round:

Similar shots from post above, but monochrome enhances details and structure of the creatures exosceleton

"Gaza’s Ministry of Health on Sunday released a document containing the names and ages of Palestinians killed by Israel’s assault since the Hamas-led October 7 attack, an incomplete list that nonetheless runs 649 pages β€” the first 14 of which are filled with the names of babies.

The list, published to the health ministry’s Telegram account, is limited to those for whom Gaza officials had information β€” over 34,000 people β€” and the count stops on August 31. The current death toll, according to the ministry, is close to 42,000, but experts believe that figure is likely a gross undercount."

Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio are being terrorized because Trump and Vance keep spreading hateful lies. This is the repulsive real-life impact of MAGA's baseless conspiracy theories.

It’s rather amusing that this is being touted as if it’s some revolutionary new thing. I’ve been using #mSecure on all my Apple devices for many years. Each of my hundreds of passwords is a 20-char random string of alphanumerics plus $. I create passwords on my Mac, then sync to phone & tablet. For years this has been working great. Good for Apple on catching up.
