The hit series "The Pitt" has earned praise for its realistic look at the pressures facing health care workers. Chief medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook spoke to the star of the show, Noah Wyle, for "CBS Sunday Morning.

Israeli occupation forces demolish a residential building that housed Palestinian families, reducing it to rubble in the Nur Shams refugee camp in Tulkarm.
During 2025, Israel bombed more than 40 charitable kitchens and aid centers. Israel also killed 500 relief workers.
Charity work and helping Palestinians do not protect volunteers; instead, they make them targets for the Israeli occupation. The Israeli occupation continues its policy of collective punishment, targeting anyone who provides assistance, including foreign institutions and non-Palestinian workers within them.
It is worth noting that Israel recently notified 37 humanitarian and medical organizations to cease operations within a short period, justifying this by alleged noncompliance with new Israeli regulations for humanitarian institutions.
After losing his leg in an Israeli strike during the war on the Gaza Strip, 13-year-old Omar Halawa visits the grave where his amputated leg was buried.
The war crimes in Gaza continue — genocide rebranded by a false ceasefire. According to Gaza’s Government Media Office, Israel has violated the official ceasefire at least 875 times since it took effect on October 10, 2025.
These flagrant, systematic violations leave little doubt that Israel is still, to this day, intent on inflicting conditions conducive to the physical destruction of the Palestinian people, as defined under the Genocide Convention. To ignore it is not neutrality. It is complicity.
As political pressure corrodes enforcement of international humanitarian law, the Hind Rajab Foundation works on the frontline to uphold it — to ensure that it does not become an empty promise.
The law survives only when it is enforced. Your support ensures it does not end in Gaza.

#Dependabot alerted me to a high-severity defect in a transient dependency (the dependency is from Stripe!). The same day a user reported a defect in the system that's apparently been there for quite some time. Both are now fixed in production.
Nvidia RTX 5090 prices to over double in February.
My stupid gaming PC, that I use for Flight Sim, has 192gb RAM, a 5090 and 12tb of NVMe.. in the age of GenAI this stupid PC has become by far the most valuable thing I own. I could sell it and have the deposit to buy a mansion.
Cheers. Was thinking of selling my 3080 (replaced by 5070ti this year), but I guess I will stick to it, as a backup or if the 3070 of my wife is no longer enough (VRAM wise).
Even old DDR4 memory blocks are getting really expensive.
Corsair 32 GB RAM kit (with two 16 GB 2133 MHz DDR4 pieces) has risen from ~70 € (back in summer 2025) all the way to 358,90 €. It's ridiculously expensive for such old memory kits.

nope, l'émission d'onde se faisant en cône, sans plateau tournant la majeur partie du volume de ton micro-onde est remplie d'ondes pas assez énergétique pour chauffer ton plat.
Ça dépends du modèle. En théorie les bons font tourner les ondes au lieu du plat (avec un ventilateur métallique qui les fait partir dans tous les sens, par exemple).
Les mauvais sont juste des modèles à plateau tournant mais sans le plateau tournant, et du coup t’auras des parties du plat qui seront froides et d’autres brûlantes.

1. Pick 13 celebrities (Lucky 13) plus 3 alternates, that you predict will die in the upcoming year, 2026. If any of your selections pass away, you score 100 points minus their age at death (see Rule #7 below). The only stipulation for your 13 selections is that a minimum of one MUST be 50 years old, or younger. Whoever has the most points at the end of the year…wins.

Think it is time to give the #iwlwifi driver a try on #FreeBSD 15.0 for my Intel 8260 wireless card. So far so good, might get some speed gain compared with #iwm driver but I need to run a few days to make a conclusion. Wiki page here is helpful: wiki.freebsd.org/WiFi/Iwlwifi
For me performance with 8260 using iwlwifi driver was terrible. Less than 30 Mbit/s upstream, 3(!) Mbit/s upstream. Went back to iwm driver. Both 50 up/down

Huh, looks like with my Chinese copy of Intel 8260 AC (TL-8260D2W) — the iwlwifi is the good choice since the great work made by #FreeBSDFoundation Laptop Initiative :drgn_aww:
(if I don't care about upload speed.
I found that problem was not in #FreeBSD #WiFi — but in TCP buffers in my server with OpenSpeedTest. I increased size of them and measured speed of my WiFi connection doubled

Warning Israel is not enough. Stopping arms supply, boycotting Israeli goods and services, sanctions, restrictions on all travel and trade and support of ICC to arrest for war crimes might start getting us somewhere. middleeastmonitor.com/20251231…
Despite being wanted by the ICC, Netanyahu traveled to the US via the airspace of Greece, Italy, and France — all ICC members.
In 2013, two of these countries (France and Italy) refused to allow Bolivia's presidential jet to enter their airspace because the US claimed, with no evidence, that Edward Snowden was onboard.
Austria ultimately forced the plane to land, demanding they be allowed to search for the whistleblower. Snowden, of course, was never onboard.
The US claim was completely false, but the incident made one fact very clear: Europe is perfectly willing to intercept a presidential jet, when they actually want to.
True, but my counter-challenge would be to ask if truly hard sci-fi can be as engaging and interesting as softer sci-fi with hand-wavy storytelling "physics."
Maybe not to a mainstream audience, but then The Expanse has a TV show that's been pretty popular. (The Expanse isn't fully-hard, but it's a lot closer than most of what's out there.) I'd also say that Interstellar is pretty hard SF.
Those are all good examples, but I'm not sure if they really compare with Star Trek in terms of being inspirational material. Star Trek literally "made" a generation of astronauts and scientists.
Oh man, The Expanse has a great hardcore group of fans who continue to spread its reputation through word of mouth. The realism is amazing. For example, spaceship speeds are not measured in kph as if relative to some fixed point in space; they are measured in acceleration, g-forces. The show and book series takes red paint very seriously.
it’s the inertial dampeners, Dane. They dampen the inertia.
I don’t know whether trek lore has more space magic invested in the warp drive or the inertial dampener. The warp drive creating a bubble of space containing the ship that is then translated across space time somehow makes more sense than “it takes the inertia and gets rid of it, and that’s why impulse power doesn’t kill everyone.”
Inertial damping system, inertial dampers, or inertial dampeners, were a system used on almost all starships to counter the effects of rapid acceleration and deceleration by sustaining and absorbing the natural inertia of a vessel as it moved through…
wasn't that the job of the mass dampers or something like that? IIRC old startrek had very good scientific advisors and the tech was plausible (feasible?) to experts
i have an whole essay about how these websites ask for donations to make, i think it’s almost evil with the tricks they pull. the manipulation, the fact they have no accounts for regional differences (10 dollars is much more to me than to an average american), the giant banner ads, just… I’m trying to defend these places like wikipedia and the internet archive, but this shit doesn’t help
i already really have a lot of thoughts on this donation culture, how every step of the way makes it look like you are an horrible person if you are not giving all your money to [place], and how none of this is particularly effective long term because capitalism
so, hope you are feeling terrible for that christmas gift you got for yourself, or that fancy ice cream you got after a hard work day, WHY AREN’T YOU DONATING
