Amelia McDonald couldn’t believe her ears. She had been navigating what she calls “a horrible experience” trying to get her claims paid by State Farm after the Eaton Fire burned down her Altadena home and ranch in January.
She, along with her father, daughter and the goats that survived the fire, have been displaced since then.
Now a $876,354.07 check the insurer wrote her wouldn’t clear.

Θα παραμείνουμε, Χριστιανοί και Μουσουλμάνοι σε αυτήν την περιοχή, ένα έθνος, με την πυξίδα μας στραμμένη προς την Ιερουσαλήμ και την υπόθεσή μας να είναι η Παλαιστίνη. Δεν πρέπει να επιτρέψουμε σε κανέναν, σε καμία δύναμη, να προωθήσει σχέδια που στοχεύουν σε περαιτέρω διαίρεση και διάσπαση. Είμαστε μια οικογένεια, έτσι ήμασταν και έτσι θα παραμείνουμε».

The bunker is no longer a vision.
It’s structure. Sound. Weight.
Machines are moving.
Concrete is curing.
Silence begins to take shape.
This is not a shelter.
This is a habitat for the next frequency of life.
Soon —
we will open the first gate.
Private spaces for those
who feel the cracks on the surface
and want to build below it.

A clown and a fascist 😡
Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama once again knelt before meeting Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome, Italy.
In the West Bank village of Taibeh, the only entirely Christian Palestinian village, Israeli settlers reportedly set fire to St. George's Church and the adjacent Christian cemetery.
The incident comes amid a broader wave of settler violence in the West Bank. Villages such as Ein Samia and Kufr Malik have faced arson attacks targeting homes, vehicles, and farmland. At the end of June, four young Palestinians were killed while resisting settler raids.

Linux geeks, what package would you use to run 24/7 , monitor line input from ham radio, and record radio traffic when squelch is exceeded. saving each instance in its own audio file?
im thinking of setting a raspberry pi to do this. hook it to an external usb drive.
in all seriousness when you look at the alleged autopsy photos, those strangulation marks really do not look like hanging. they aren't pulling up toward the jaw, they're straight across his neck like someone strangled him from behind with an electrical cord (which was also photographed in the cell)
all video anomalies aside, that is the most glaring piece of evidence that he didn't hang himself with a bedsheet.
combine that with all the other implausible coincidences with the staff, the cameras, everything like that- it's pretty obvious we have a big fat conspiracy.

Bisher dachte man, #Brosius-Gersdorf sei nur für Ungeborene gefährlich, die straflos getötet, entnommen, verkauft oder verarbeitet werden dürfen. Irrtum! Sie entleert den Begriff der Würde des Menschen bis zur Unkenntlichkeit.
Hintergrund: Das #Grundgesetz betonte individuelle #Menschen- und #Freiheitsrechte so stark, weil es als #Gegenentwurf zu #Kommunismus und #Nationalsozialismus geschaffen wurde.
Seit langem gibt es in der Juristerei jedoch Bestrebungen, das #Grundgesetz kollektivistisch umzuschreiben und einzelne Menschen zur Ware und zu Verfügungsobjekten des Staates herabzuwürdigen. #Impfpflicht, schrankenlose #Abtreibung und Beseitigung der #Oppostion passen allesamt in dieses #Denkschema.
Dieselben Leute, die „Würde des Menschen” beim auf Leben ganz klein schreiben, beharren darauf, dass die bloße Rückführung Gebietsfremder in ihre Heimatländer ein Anschlag auf die Verfassung sei. Das ist inkonsistent und lächerlich.

It does, but without the \s you will match on:

Wealth trickles down from the rich.... (it doesn't);
The state is like a household & must therefore 'balance the books'.... (it isn't & doesn't);
The poor have only themselves to blame...(no, poverty is often due to external factors);
The rich got there through hard work.... (no, mostly the rich have either benefitted form inheritance or have, unacknowledged, good luck)....

One huge impact mass FOSS adoption would have is that there would be a lot less software and hardware churn. Commercial nature of proprietary technology is the main driver for constant upgrade cycles we see. Companies need to constantly sell products to stay in business, and this means you have to deprecate old software and hardware in order to sell new versions of the product.

They're sadists, so they like sadism. They enjoy making people suffer. They also enjoy making money and having sex.
So if there's something that will cause others to suffer, make them money, and get them aroused, they'll go for it no matter what laws they have to break.
Well....not that laws are binding us as a society any longer.

checking what sort of dev jobs are available on the job boards it's not looking too great for human employment. i think it's going to continue imploding until AI basically does everything and no jobs even exist
the it'll be eat bug live in pod time
as AGI approaches then it'll just be shareholders, executives, boards of directors, and their AI agents
obviously there will have to be systemic changes cause on this trajectory the whole concept of a job will be obsolete, for the vast majority of human labor
my main client has basically been saying "Yea i have some updates for you to do" for like 6 months and we never do them. so it's an extremely minimal amount of system admin stuff that an AI agent could probably take over within a year or two.
don't get me wrong i am definitely taking advantage of this pause in work to deal with other stuff like getting moved onto my property (thus reducing expenses) but still it's rather disconcerting

The bank puts a hold on the check and slowly releases the check amount over several days from hold status to deposit status in her checking account. This is normal. The insurance company is not lacking cash.
If she needs the full amount quick, the bank will release it.
