<cough> pretending they could "track signals"... TV detector vans are without any science basis, so far as I know. I find it kind of wild that they pulled this con, for decades, when what they actually did was assume everyone had a TV and send out demands on that basis
Locally, petrol prices went up 16 per litre (about 64p per US gallon) more or less over night...
I get caught out by the Irish names that look/sound like they should be Italian...
There was a guy in work who's name kept coming up and I thought "why would someone call their kid '70' in Italian?"...
I feel kind of betrayed by the realisation that this characterisation of "progress" as something that happens over time, due to "history" is a crock of shit...
So far as I can tell, progress (and regress) are something people _do_.
That's work, that is
May have got confused... I think I'm thinking of algorithms. The text of the code is protected as an expression, like a particular expression of a recipe
I thought code had no copyright (outside the US)...?
The Dwarflab Mini is another option for that... Similar specs to the S30, with software/handling differences (minus the mini tripod, but who cares?)
At least she didn't know where the trigger was...
We're just between clouds, for now...
I watched the petrol prices go up 16p per litre over the last week or so...
This is the same test they used in the 1996 games, where all 8 "positive" results, were later classified as "false positives"...?
But ultimately, such claims (British or Argentine) are irrelevant, as self-determination should be the rule
I thought that was common knowledge - the claim of sovereignty was always opportunistic
Press Association comment from Quakers in Britain This evening, for the second time in a year, the Metropolitan Police raided a Quaker Meeting House and arrested a number of young nonviolent activists who were meeting there on the grounds that they were conspiring to commit a criminal act. The room in Westminster Quaker Meeting House was let to Take Back Power to hold nonviolent direct action training. Quakers support the principle of nonviolent direct action, which aims to protest without harming people. Oliver Robertson, head of witness and worship for Quakers in Britain, said: “For Quakers, faith and action are inseparable. Peaceful protest, prayer and nonviolent action are integral parts of many Quakers' religious life. “Whilst we take the planning of criminal acts very seriously, we believe that this incident is a deliberate targeting of committed young people who want to make our country a more equitable place. This raid is part of a systematic stifling of dissent. “That this is the second time in a year that the police have raided our meeting house dramatically illuminates the broader trend in the UK of cracking down on those who disagree with the government. The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy. It's a key part of how people make their voices heard between elections.”
Statement from @quaker.org.uk about tonight's police raid on Westminster Meeting House. Guys, I don't think they're buying the Met's line about it all being a cover for plotting "mass shoplifting"

The painting "Night in the Steppe" shows a vast plain under a bright full moon, the light being distributed over the landscape and the water in an almost magical way.
This work is made by the renowned Ukrainian artist Ivan Marchuk, who invented the unique painting style called "plyontanism" (from the Ukrainian word plyontaty, meaning "to braid"). This technique consists of hundreds of fine, intertwined lines that create depth and an almost textile-like texture.
First I've seen it confirmed. Both Steensma and Kaltiala, two figures prominent in bad science re trans kids, advised the Cass Review's York Studies.
