Scientists predict one of the major surveys by NASA’s upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope may reveal around 100,000 celestial blasts, ranging from exploding stars to feeding black holes. Roman may even find evidence of some of the universe’s first stars, which are thought to completely self-destruct without leaving any remnant behind. Cosmic explosions offer […]

Hello all! It's your friendly neighborhood mod Glitch, and I am in need of some help.
I am a trans nonbinary disabled neurodivergent individual (ME/CFS) who is unable to work and I haven't been able to get disability.
I've been trying to get help for a few days now without any luck. Please read below why this is so urgent for me:
Have a sudden change of plans since I will be moving back into my apartment next week now that the remodel is finished.
We do have a heat wave coming this week, so I could use some help with groceries so I can get some cold food/shelf stable food to get through the week, cat food/cat litter, and some personal care/hygiene items. Any help is appreciated.

@Infoseepage Yes, that's the basic idea. It's not the most effective incendiary weapon, but it's relatively cheap and easy, if the drone can carry a lot of weight and it can survive while slowly moving directly above the target.
They are using them from an year or so now, its much more than a distraction or harassment, its actual effective destruction, its an incendiary weapon by all definitions of the term. The few wasted bullets dont mean much in the big scheme of things. You can see how many ammo boxes are just thrown to the ground when troops deploy from an APC Thermite just goes through all sort of stuff and a drone delivers it very precisely, UA has been even following whole trench lines with them
@Infoseepage The problem with a shotgun is that its effective range is not very far. I'm not sure how high up that drone was in the video clip, but I feel like a shotgun simply wouldn't be able to reach that far.
I think it's thermite mixed from base ingredients. If thermite is packaged in an incendiary grenade, it would be more effective to use the grenade directly.
With mixing DIY thermite, the Ukrainians can mix up an essentially limitless cheap supply, independent of foreign supplies and purchases.
@Infoseepage The latter two pictures are of a Russian "copycat" thermite drone that apparently does not dispense very much thermite compared to the Ukrainian ones:
@isaackuo @Infoseepage It's quite possibly an "off the shelf" item, used for on-site welding - especially of railway track. Then you just need a container with a hole in the bottom for the igniter and a suitable heat-resistant lid to protect the drone as it pours molten steel onto the target.
(Someone was selling "NR Grade Thermite" on eBay UK a few years ago - I suspect the NR stood for "Network Rail".)

A Simple Fix for the Healthcare Crisis: Outlaw Insurance
Both sides in the health care debate have vested interests in screwing the pooch, so to speak, and little interest in solving the problem. Neither side ever asks, "What is the problem?"
The problem is simple to understand -- medical costs are too expensive in America. Fortunately, the solution is just as simple -- outlaw insurance. Insurance is a form of gambling, and, like any casino, insurance companies . . . stormfront.org/forum/blogs/u15…

@hyc @mirabilos yeah this is why i usually avoid using emoji altogether. The first is someone staring silently and expressionless (at modern C) The second is a cute alien woman clapping her hands together excitedly (Nei from Phantasy Star II) at C89/C99
I might be wrong, but I think they are called custom emoji nearly universally and just emoji in ActivityPub itself. Probably not the best term, but that is what we currently have 🤷
Stickers, in the 90s? Are you sure? I believe we've been calling them smileys. I don't have any BBS software sources at hand, but PHPbb and SMF were among the most popular forum engines in the early 2000s, both call them smileys, e.g. here: github.com/phpbb/phpbb/commit/… github.com/SimpleMachines/SMF/…
Sticker is a relatively "young" term IMO, I think I encountered it for the first time when dealing with Telegram or something like that.
Admin -> Forum -> Smileys and Message Icons Click Modify on any of the sets, try and set it as the default set using the checkbox. Doesn't seem to work. Workaround is use the settings tab.
Oh, yes, that could be true! 🤔 But I see, @mirabilos@toot.mirbsd.org means real-life objects that inspired them — makes sense, but for me it wasn't like that. This could also be country and language specific. In any case — yes, for the sake of correctness, emojis are original Japanese characters, but I personally don't mind the term being used more broadly 😁

"…Disaster “Anarcho”-Capitalism Comes to Argentina Argentina’s self-described “anarcho-capitalist” President, Javier Milei, has — to put it mildly — generated considerable enthusiasm on the libertarian right in the United States.

I think there was a belief that Trump was going to be the "disclosure president." I have come to the conclusion that we mistakenly believe that the president (and that goes for any president) has more power and control than he really has. For instance, once Trump released the JFK documents, most of us thought there was nothing dramatic in those documents; that there was no reason these weren't released decades ago, and hence, the meaningful stuff has been held back.
@karnage If there was no there there, why did previous administrations actively seek to skirt complying with legislation that required the release of the JFK documents? Why did Secretary of State Mike Pompeo counsel Trump against fully releasing all the documents during Trump's first term?
This morning harvest. Cucumbers are starting to go gangbusters and pepper are still a bit small due to the drought, Tomato's are still thinking about budding more.

If you're asking about a document that says: "Here are the people who I sold illegal sex from minors, signed J. Epstein", well, that probably does not exist, for obvious reason.
The real point is in his presidential campaign, Trump promised to do SOMETHING with the Epstein case, and now that he's president, nothing new has happened and he wants everyone to forget about it. Nobody has been indicted, no document has been disclosed.
So I'll accept that by your definition there's no list, but I think it's incumbent on you to prove that you're not wearing the Fell For It Again Award...
Yeah, there has to be a ton of financial crime evidence in there. It's a typcial white collar crime and the people he surrounded himself with were all very affluent white collar workers.
Chain of Custody When the AG released the binders she was under the assumption that's what was held that wasn't under Seal of the Court. A Whistle Blower came forward and stated the SDNY FBI was sitting on mountains of evidence. Now, if that evidence was being held in other locations outside the SOP of DOJ Evidence and Archiving, then it stands to reason the Chain of Custody had been broken by unknown actors.
@karnageIt is also naïve to think that any political part or organisation is not infested with compromised people. I now think that it is not possible to obtain any political power unless you have skeletons that can be held over you. It certainly explains why so many of our politicians think, act and talk in lockstep.
People are just assuming that the Trump administration is sitting on evidence of crimes against children, and I haven't seen any proof of that. Personally, I think all substantial evidence is long gone.
The "list" is several thousand documents and data objects deemed sufficient to start a conviction process and due diligence filing. A single piece of paper - even if it was "These following people banged minors at my island. Signed J. Epstein" - does not exist. Unfortunately, that's the narrative that's been sold by spokespeople and the media. Right now, I don't care about the long term; I just want people to be indicted and removed from power.

WeTransfer just changed their ToS to allow them to train AI on any files you transfer through them.
Don't use there service, especially for work that you don't have the right to relicense to them (e.g., commercial work that's exactly the most likely to create the huge files WeTransfer specializes in).
(ETA: this is already going boom so I'm muting it.)
So... I printed a pocket sized gas filter cartridge to mouth adapter. It fits and works! Great for all the other times when one doesn't want to carry a full face respirator around everywhere for the occasional less than lethal dog fart.
I found this has already been designed, "3M Filter Adapter for Snorkel Mask (dual or single filter)" and I chose the single filter and printed it, and here is the success. It will need an oring (which can be printed with TPU filament LOL.) The only change I would make is printing it slightly smaller at 98% for a better fit to the cartridge and 100% infill for strength, so just started another print.
And possibly another revision, to print the whole thing in TPU as this is held by the mouth and teeth 😁
