Ever since I cut my hair a few years ago, I've had a lot of people (including my own mom) ask me what product I use to get my curl pattern. And I'm just like... water? I guess however my hair curls is desirable though it doesn't look any different to me than other people's hair. My mom insists I should be going for a bigger fro but once it hits 1/4" I shave it again. Ain't got no time for styling.
Let's try something. I'm an English technology lawyer in private practice. I can help with tech contracts, software licensing (including FOSS), SaaS and the like, and data protection.
Unlike most lawyers I'm actually technically literate, in that I spent a number of years as a sysadmin before becoming a lawyer, and I've kept up my knowledge since.
I'm practical, quick, and my rates are reasonable. Maybe I could be useful to your business?

#Red #bananas are rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and vitamin B6. They offer a low-calorie but high-fiber addition to meals, snacks, and desserts. Nutrients in red bananas may contribute to improved heart and digestive health when eaten as part of an overall healthy diet.
7 Red Banana Benefits (And How They Differ From Yellow Ones)
There are over 1,000 different varieties of bananas around the world (1).
Red bananas are a subgroup of bananas from Southeast Asia with red skin.
They’re soft and have a sweet flavor when ripe. Some people say they taste like a regular banana — but with a hint of raspberry sweetness.
They’re often used in desserts but pair well with savory dishes, too.
Red bananas provide many essential nutrients and may benefit your immune system, heart health, and digestion.
Here are 7 benefits of red bananas — and how they differ from yellow ones.
Contain Many Important Nutrients Like yellow bananas, red bananas provide essential nutrients.
They’re particularly rich in potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin B6 and contain a fair amount of fiber.
One small red banana (3.5 ounces or 100 grams) provides (2Trusted Source):
Calories: 90 calories Carbs: 21 grams Protein: 1.3 grams Fat: 0.3 grams Fiber: 3 grams Potassium: 9% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI) Vitamin B6: 28% of the RDI Vitamin C: 9% of the RDI Magnesium: 8% of the RDI A small red banana only has about 90 calories and consists mostly of water and carbs. The high amounts of vitamin B6, magnesium, and vitamin C make this banana variety particularly nutrient dense.
Summary The red banana is of great nutritional value. It’s rich in essential minerals, vitamin B6, and fiber.
May Lower Blood Pressure Potassium is a mineral essential for heart health due to its role in regulating blood pressure.
Red bananas are rich in potassium — with one small fruit providing 9% of the RDI.
Research shows that eating more potassium-rich foods may help reduce blood pressure (3Trusted Source, 4Trusted Source, 5Trusted Source).
A review of 22 controlled studies found that eating more potassium lowered systolic blood pressure (the top number of a reading) by 7 mm Hg. This effect was strongest in people who had high blood pressure at the beginning of the study (3Trusted Source).
Another important mineral for blood pressure control is magnesium. One small red banana provides about 8% of your daily needs for this mineral.
A review of 10 studies noted that increasing your magnesium intake by 100 mg per day may decrease your risk of high blood pressure by up to 5% (6Trusted Source).
Additionally, increasing your intake of both magnesium and potassium may be more effective at reducing blood pressure than eating more of just one of the minerals (7Trusted Source).
Summary Red bananas are rich in potassium and magnesium. Increasing your intake of these two minerals may help reduce blood pressure.
Support Eye Health Red bananas contain carotenoids — pigments that give the fruits their reddish peel (8Trusted Source).
Lutein and beta carotene are two carotenoids in red bananas that support eye health.
For example, lutein may help prevent age-related macular degeneration (AMD), an incurable eye disease and a leading cause of blindness (9Trusted Source, 10Trusted Source).
In fact, one review of 6 studies found that eating lutein-rich foods could reduce your risk of late age-related macular degeneration by 26% (11Trusted Source).
Beta carotene is another carotenoid that supports eye health, and red bananas provide more of it than other banana varieties (8Trusted Source).
Beta carotene can be converted into vitamin A in your body — one of the most important vitamins for eye health (12Trusted Source).
Summary Red bananas contain carotenoids like lutein and beta carotene that promote eye health and may reduce your risk of macular degeneration.
Rich in Antioxidants Like most other fruits and vegetables, red bananas contain powerful antioxidants. In fact, they provide higher amounts of some antioxidants than yellow bananas (8Trusted Source).
Antioxidants are compounds that prevent cellular damage caused by molecules called free radicals. Excessive free radicals in your body may lead to an imbalance known as oxidative stress, which is linked to conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer (13Trusted Source, 14Trusted Source, 15Trusted Source).
The main antioxidants in red bananas include (8Trusted Source):
carotenoids anthocyanins vitamin C dopamine These antioxidants may offer protective health benefits. For example, one systematic review found that dietary intake of anthocyanins reduced the risk of coronary heart disease by 9% (16Trusted Source).
Eating fruits rich in antioxidants — like red bananas — may lower your risk of some chronic conditions (17Trusted Source, 18Trusted Source).
Summary Red bananas are high in many antioxidants that may prevent cell damage caused by free radicals and lower your risk of certain diseases.
May Support Your Immune System Red bananas are rich in vitamins C and B6. These nutrients are essential for a healthy immune system (19Trusted Source).
One small red banana provides 9% and 28% of the RDIs for vitamins C and B6, respectively.
Vitamin C boosts immunity by strengthening the cells of your immune system. Accordingly, some research suggests that even a marginal vitamin C deficiency may be associated with an increased risk of infection (20Trusted Source, 21Trusted Source).
Though vitamin C deficiency is relatively rare in the United States — affecting around 7% of adults — it’s important to ensure adequate intake (22Trusted Source).
The vitamin B6 in red bananas also plays an important role in supporting your immune system.
In fact, a vitamin B6 deficiency may reduce your body’s production of white blood cells and immune antibodies — both of which fight off infection (23Trusted Source).
Summary Red bananas are a good source of vitamin C and vitamin B6, which are vitamins that support a strong immune system and fight infection.
May Improve Digestive Health Red bananas support your digestive system in many ways.
Contain Prebiotics Prebiotics are a type of fiber that feeds your beneficial gut bacteria. Like yellow bananas, red bananas are a great source of prebiotic fiber.
Fructooligosaccharides are the main type of prebiotic fiber in bananas, but they also contain another called inulin (24Trusted Source).
Prebiotics in bananas may reduce bloating, increase the diversity of friendly gut bacteria, and reduce constipation (25Trusted Source, 26Trusted Source).
One study found that taking 8 grams of fructooligosaccharides per day for 2 weeks increased the population of beneficial gut bacteria by 10 times (27Trusted Source).
Good Source of Fiber One small red banana provides 3 grams of fiber — about 10% of the RDI for this nutrient.
Dietary fiber benefits your digestive system by (28Trusted Source, 29Trusted Source):
promoting regular bowel movements reducing inflammation in your gut stimulating the growth of friendly gut bacteria Additionally, a high-fiber diet may reduce your risk of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).
One study in 170,776 women found that a high-fiber diet — compared to one low in fiber — was associated with a 40% reduced risk of Crohn’s disease (30Trusted Source).
Summary Red bananas are rich in prebiotics and fiber, which promote optimal digestion and may reduce your risk of IBD.
Delicious and Easy to Add to Your Diet In addition to their health benefits, red bananas are delicious and easy to eat.
They’re an extremely convenient and portable snack. Due to their sweet taste, red bananas also offer a healthy way to naturally sweeten a recipe.
Here are a few ways to add red bananas to your diet:
Toss them into a smoothie. Slice and use them as a topping for oatmeal. Freeze and blend red bananas into homemade ice cream. Pair with peanut butter for a filling snack. Red bananas are also a great addition to recipes for muffins, pancakes, and homemade bread.
Summary Red bananas are a great portable snack. Their sweet flavor also makes them a great addition to various recipes.
Red vs. Yellow Bananas Red bananas are fairly similar to their yellow counterparts.
They’re both good sources of dietary fiber and provide similarly high in calories and carbs.
Still, the two varieties have a few differences. For example, compared to yellow bananas, red bananas (8Trusted Source, 31Trusted Source) :
are smaller and denser have a mildly sweeter flavor contain more vitamin C are higher in some antioxidants have a lower glycemic index (GI) score Though red bananas are sweeter, they have a lower GI score than yellow bananas. The GI is a scale from 0 to 100 which measures how quickly foods increase blood sugar levels.
Lower GI scores indicate a slower absorption into the blood. Yellow bananas have an average GI score of 51, while red bananas score lower on the scale at roughly 45.
Following a low-GI diet may support healthy blood sugar control and reduce cholesterol levels (31Trusted Source, 32Trusted Source, 33Trusted Source, 34Trusted Source).
Summary Red bananas are smaller and sweeter than yellow bananas. They’re higher in certain nutrients — like antioxidants and vitamin C — but have a lower GI score.
The Bottom Line Red bananas are a unique fruit that provides many health benefits.
They’re rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, and vitamin B6. They offer a low-calorie but high-fiber addition to meals, snacks, and nourishing desserts.
Among other things, the nutrients in red bananas may contribute to improved heart and digestive health when eaten as part of an overall healthy diet.

President Trump late Sunday lashed out at critics of a proposed deal in which Qatar will give the Trump White House a luxury jet to temporarily replace 40-year-old Air Force One, the aircraft on which U.S. presidents fly.
House Republicans late Sunday released a key part of their budget bill that includes changes to Medicaid, particularly work requirements and more frequent eligibility checks.
The legislation would prohibit gender-affirming care for minors from being funded by Medicaid, as well as end Medicaid reimbursement for organizations like Planned Parenthood.

Hey folks, We have been working on a project called InlineStyle
A European, open-source, fediverse based alternative to the Google ecosystem.
It’s a single platform with these services: * 📧 Email address @inlinestyle.it * 📹 Video sharing via PeerTube * 🎵 Music streaming with Funkwhale * 📝 Docs and Drive via Collabora/NextCloud * 📒 Markdown based notes * 🎮 Browser-based FOSS games (Celeste Classic, Tyrian, SuperTux, etc.) * 🌍 Static personal site hosting
All hosted in Europe. No telemetry, no ads, no corporate BS.
It’s not a startup pitch, just something we built because we got tired of being locked in.
The idea is to keep it sustainable with a simple support plan (€1.90/month) that unlocks upload features and personal email/webspace. Free tier available too, no login needed to browse.
Would love your thoughts. What should I improve? What’s missing for you to consider switching?
Our goal is to try to build a real #DeGoogle fediverse based path that doesn’t feel like a downgrade. It will take time, but we are willing to try and stay committed to the mission.
We’ve been exploring the idea of adding a chat service. But we haven’t yet decided which protocol would provide the most value for most people.
Right now, we’re considering XMPP and Matrix — both are solid, privacy-respecting options. Our goal is to offer something that lets people communicate with their existing contacts, not start from scratch.
We’d love your input: what would you actually use? What works best in your daily setup?
Not sure I'd use either, but may I suggest both, with a clear caveat that one or both may disappear or change ? Throw stuff at the wall, see what sticks...

Sosyolojide bir tanım vardır: 'Kültürel Gecikme' (Cultural Lag) bir toplumdaki maddi kültür öğelerinde meydana gelen değişim hızına, manevi kültür öğelerinin ayak uyduramamasından dolay oluşan uyumsuzluk ve görgüsüzlük durumudur.
Arabalar, evler, giyim kuşam belki gelişiyor, güzelleşiyor ama kesinlikle insan kalitesi düşüyor. Kaç yaşına gelmiş insanlar ergenler gibi davranıyor, toplum en basit tartışma, akıl yürütme, analiz etme ve sorun çözme yöntemlerinden habersiz. Dil gittikçe fakirleşiyor. İlerledikçe empati kuracağına, bencilleşiyor. Nankörlük ve günübirlik düşünme marifet olarak görülüyor.
Kısa yoldan zenginlik övülecek veya imrenecek bir beceri gibi tanımlanıyor. Paranın tüm ayıpları örtebileceğine inanılıyor ve bu düşünceler yaygınlaşıyor. Kişiliği zayıf insanlar çoğalıyor. Kanımca bu en büyük sorun.

Xi Jinping: In the days when the Chinese people were poor, weak, and at the mercy of others, all sorts of ideologies and theories were attempted. The capitalist road was tried and found wanting. Reformism, liberalism, social Darwinism, anarchism, pragmatism, populism, syndicalism—they all were given their moment on the stage. They all failed to solve the problems of China’s future destiny. It is Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought that guided the Chinese people out of the darkness of that long night and established a New China. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

Bundesnetzagentur plant Reform: Solaranlagenbesitzer sollen künftig mehr Netzkosten tragen
@Klaus Müller Mit Interesse zur Kenntnis genommen. Nun sind die meisten Solaranlagenbesitzer keine Millionäre. Die Anlagen sind teilweise vom knappen Geld abgespart. Zudem besitzen diese Gruppen keine Lobby, die mit ihnen zusammensitzen und ihre Interessen in Diskussionen vertreten könnte.
Zuletzt sei noch angemerkt, dass sich, alleine schon durch diese Diskussion, der Kreis der Investierenden erheblich verkleinern wird. Der für Deutschland so wichtige Umbau auf regenerative Energien (auch über den privaten Sektor) wird ins Trudeln kommen. Anlagen u.U. vom Netz genommen.

It seems to have plateaued and increasing more slowly.
Look like 1 year "growth then plateau", like 2021-01 to 2022-01. But 2022-05 to 2024-09 linear growth again. Analysis/forecast of human behaviour not easy.
Also combine data of different source not easy, please handle with care.
Good point, thanks. The way I modeled the adjustment was by assuming that most usage is captured by Statcounter but there's movement back and forth to a reservoir that flies under its radar, in bursts, with zero net movement in the long run. So I used a geometric mean of the source data scaled by the square root of their averaged ratio.

Enver Hoxha: Present-day social-democracy is a direct follower of the traitorous 2nd International. It has inherited all the ideological luggage, organization and tactics of the parties of the 2nd International. The social-democrats began their betrayal by getting away from the basic teachings of Marxism-Leninism, which they proclaim as out-dated and inexpedient, by renouncing the class struggle and replacing it with the "theory" of harmony and reconciliation of classes, by negating the revolution and replacing it with reforms within the capitalist order, by giving up the revolutionary way and replacing it with "peaceful", "democratic" and parliamentary method, by denying the indispensability of breaking up the old bourgeois state machinery and accepting the capitalist state as a means to cross over to socialism, by withholding their assent to the dictatorship of the proletariat and replacing it with "pure and general democracy", by departing from proletarian internationalism and going so far the other way as to plunge into positions of the national-chauvinists, to open union with the imperialist bourgeoisie. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

For years, Guérot was one of Germany’s most respected political scientists. But after she criticised the pandemic response and the proxy war in Ukraine, she found herself cast as a public enemy
Her case stands as a chilling testament to the authoritarian drift of German society, and Western societies more in general, where dissent is no longer debated but punished — even to the point of going after tenured professors, who used to be almost untouchable. It’s a story that should shatter any lingering illusions about the true state of Western liberal democracy. Ultimately, however, one doesn’t need proof of a conspiracy to be appalled by Guérot’s treatment. If every actor involved was indeed operating independently, the picture is arguably even more troubling — that of an establishment so intolerant of dissent and contradiction that it instinctively moves to stamp it out it wherever it arises.
