Visionary on telephones ... This was written by the Associated Press and was published in a variety of papers in 1953

This lines up with the observation that the people in the attempted coup were affluent enough to travel across the country, and so are many who attend cult rallies.

Very interesting. At one step of the spectrum I have to believe there are well-off Trump supporters living in areas where Trump doesn’t do well (deep blue enclaves) but are pissed that their region is _actually_ thriving and succeeding under Democrat leadership and not realizing that they’re benefiting from it. I may/may not be describing people I know 🤨


Only 7 hours left on #BandcampFriday, where Bandcamp waives their cut so the artist gets that extra 15%.
I'm not saying you have to buy my song, but I'm donating all proceeds of ALL my tracks to vote.org until Nov. 5th. Voting rights are under attack in the United States of America, and this is a tiny way that I, as a small-time creative person, can help out. And so can you.
This song in particular is about wanting justice to be done.

What's the significance of that? Well, not a whole lot, unless you really believe in astrology, which I don't. I think it's fun and interesting, but I wouldn't make life decisions around it.

But I wrote When You See The Moon back in 2022, aimed at a certain traitorous con man who had yet to receive justice, and I did take note of the full moon happening on the same day Kamala announced her campaign.

A few days later, I pulled the song out and decided it might be worth releasing it early.

It was a lot more work than I anticipated. Could I even release it in time?
And then on the 1st night of the DNC, a Super Blue Moon, Hilary Clinton opened her speech saying
"There's a lot of energy in this room, just like there is across the country. Something is happening in America, you can feel it. Something we've worked for and dreamed of for a long time."
And I knew I had to release it early. It was time. I could feel it in the air.

Summer 2024 sweltered to Earth’s #hottest on record, making it even more likely that this year will end up as the warmest humanity has measured, European climate service Copernicus reported Friday.

And if this sounds familiar, that’s because the records the globe shattered were set just last year as human-caused climate change, with a temporary boost from an El Nino, keeps dialing up temperatures and extreme weather, scientists said.

The northern meteorological summer — June, July and August — averaged 16.8 degrees Celsius (62.24 degrees Fahrenheit), according to Copernicus.

That’s 0.03 degrees Celsius (0.05 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the old record in 2023.

Copernicus records go back to 1940, but American, British and Japanese records, which start in the mid-19th century, show the last decade has been the hottest since regular measurements were taken and likely in about 120,000 years, according to some scientists

Saw this earlier, but only noticed this is a COVID death.

"Sergio Mendes, the Grammy-winning Brazilian musician whose hit "Mas Que Nada" made him a global legend, has died after months battling the effects of long COVID. He was 83."

Over the last decade, the world warmed by 0.25 °C, in-line with the roughly linear trend since the 1970s.

Here we present updated analyses showing that this seemingly small shift has led to the emergence of heat extremes that would be virtually impossible without anthropogenic global warming.

Also, record rainfall extremes have continued to increase worldwide and, on average, 1 in 4 rainfall records in the last decade can be attributed to climate change.

Tropical regions, comprised of vulnerable countries that typically contributed least to anthropogenic climate change, continue to see the strongest increase in extremes.

Release 6.5 of Incus out!

Incus is an awesome tool to quickly create VMs and full-system containers (think of a normal server but instead of being in a VM it is the full server userspace (with no kernel; it relies on the host kernel) in a container.
