I am just finishing up a novel about the Finnish-America communities in western Washington and Astoria in the early twentieth century. The book mentioned a low-alcohol drink called "sima." I had never heard of it and this is what I just found:
This is a simple and easy Finnish recipe to make fermented, refreshing lemonade. It is made from lemons, sugar, and yeast. Mead is traditionally made in Finland on the first of May, this is the

Are they getting the Amiga rights with it? I think that would be a large contribution toward restoring the Commodore brand, to the point it might not go very far without it.
The annual inflation rate in the U.S. ticked higher in June, as lower prices at the gasoline pump somewhat offset higher prices at the grocery store.
CNBC reports: "Economists said they expect the full impact from the Trump administration’s tariff agenda to raise consumer prices more in the months ahead."
A conspiracy theory literally made Trump president: It was his relentless advocacy of the 'birther' lie about Barack Obama that turned him from a reality show clown into a political figure."
"The Epstein wildfire engulfing MAGA just continues apace.
This is a bit hard to make sense of for what we might call normal people. ...
if you look with any clarity at the Epstein meta-story, it’s crystal clear that it’s PizzaGate. It’s like PizzaGate was an original treatment for the show that became 'Epstein.”'
So I mentioned in today’s BackChannel that it kind of beggared belief we were only hearing about these Wolff/Epstein interview tapes and their contents now.
"When Trump got in the position where he could prove all the crap he’s been feeding them was true, he couldn’t. ...
The MAGA movement is kept alive with a steady diet of lies and grievance and conspiracies that feed their need to believe that God is on their side and everyone who doesn’t believe as they do is evil."
"The Epstein matter is so crucial to Trump’s base, and the excuse offered is so flimsy, that the about-face has raised questions within perhaps the most gullible movement in American history. ...
The Epstein saga also seems to hold a load-bearing place in the populist mythology, explaining why the 'deep state' is out to get Trump."
"Casually retconning the narrative, so that the Epstein files cease to be the secret document that will expose Trump’s enemies but rather become a libel written by those enemies, is too wrenching a shift for even them to accept."
"While you were asleep, House Republicans voted against a Democratic amendment that would have required the Department of Justice to release all Jeffrey Epstein-related files."
House Republicans block measure to release Epstein files, Trump privately encourages Ukraine to strike Russia, ICE says no bond for undocumented migrants, and much more.
"Trump's MAGA base has been salivating over the release of the 'Epstein files' for years. To have a Republican-controlled Committee in the House block the release will only heighten suspicion."
"Like so many other Trump scandals, maybe it will all dissipate. But we’ve never seen one like this before: A Judas kiss that went straight to the heart and shattered their deepest convictions."
"It's not just Epstein. MAGA is angry about a lot of things. Pockets of Donald Trump’s most loyal base are increasingly angry at what they view as the administration’s failure to fulfill its promises."
"It would be the irony to end all ironies if Donald Trump’s ultimate undoing came not from a criminal conviction or impeachment but a revolt of the voters who elected him: the MAGA faithful. ...
Trump’s poll numbers have long been headed downward. But increasing numbers of people are beginning to see what inexperience, incompetence, and intolerance can do to our beloved country."
"What are these Republicans so afraid of that they won’t even let the full house vote on this? Direct some coffee to the conspiracy-theory part of your brain, and go wild! …
Whatever are they so scared of, especially if, like Pamela Jo Bondi just said last week, these files do not actually exist?"
"The desperation of Trump to keep these files from us is jaw-dropping. It’s a cover up out in the open. And for good reason. …
The Trump-Epstein files have now transcended a political story. These are about potential crimes committed by Trump involving sex with children. At the very least, we may see images that Trump knew years ago that Epstein was running a child sex ring but did nothing to stop it."
"The Epstein stuff is so important because it’s so emotionally charged and it’s so deeply connected to all of these other conspiracies. It is the core conspiracy: If this is true then obviously all of the other conspiracies are true. …
[T]his Epstein conspiracy is just so important to the right, because it is the Rosetta Stone of all of their other conspiracies and ideas about the state."
As Tucker’s attack on Trump over the Jeffrey Epstein mess intensifies MAGA’s anger, a historian of the right explains why this particular obsession runs so deep—and why Trump has no easy way out of it.
Noting that 211 Republicans voted against releasing the Epstein files, Malcom Ferguson says,
"Republicans have decided that protecting the president and his friends is more important than fulfilling promises they made to their most loyal voters, and the American people at large. The House GOP had a real chance to take a stand and demand that the Epstein files be released to the public. They chose not to."
As Robert McCoy reports, asked by a reporter if Attorney General Bondi has told him his name is in the Epstein files, Trump "spiraled" and refused to answer the question while once again attempting to feed the public wild conspiracy theories about the Epstein files:
"This new tack—that a MAGA cause célèbre was, in reality, a left-wing conspiracy all along—seems unlikely to dissuade the countless people…."
"If you were gambling that this kerfuffle might cause the most automatonish MAGAbots to grow a brain and heart, just a like a real boy, and the movement might implode around Trump, I’d hold onto those chips. For look no further than MAGA’s reliable rectal thermometer, Charlie Kirk. Always good for taking the temperature of how hard the cultists will keep on culting."
The common factor across all elements of Trump's broad voter base is anger.
They're always kept angry because they are told they are: - victimized - or unheard - or someone else is getting better treated
And these people will NEVER break with Trump because no one is better at offering up enemies than Trump (and no one has as many propaganda allies as Trump to get the messages out).
The Trump cult will never collapse until the propaganda is stopped #ThisIsAmericaNow
"One thing Trump is genuinely good at is ... he'll look the camera dead center and say he'll have the marines kill Glonzo." -William B. Fuckley (see image below)
please, we all know Trump is a child rapist and everyone's denial and cover up of it is simply ludicrous. The MAGA base just looks even more like the moronic loser idiots they are.

> “We are entering a world where we will learn to coexist with AI, not as its masters, but as its collaborators.” – Mark Zuckerberg
@trenner is spot on 🎯 "[They're] framing the conversation in a very specific way. Rather than “is this the future you want?”, the question is instead “how will you adapt to this inevitable future?”. Note also the threatening tone present, a healthy psychological undercurrent encouraging you to go with the flow. [...]"
Have you ever argued with someone who is seriously good at debating? I have. It sucks.
You’re constantly thrown off-balance, responding to a point you didn’t expect to.
@round Also don’t miss the limited liability play: our corporation couldn’t possibly be held liable for our robotaxi ploughing through that crowd of people, officer, you see it’s AI – its own entity. (Apply to any situation – from health insurance to drone targeting – where AI can be used to deflect liability if such precedents are allowed to be set.)
I’m not an expert on these things so are we calling it the Israeli-American genocide of the Palestinian people or the American-Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people?
Also, is that fair to Germany?
Is Israeli-American-German genocide of the Palestinian people more precise?
Would that make other EU countries with their own valid contributions to the genocide feel left out?
this may be spicy but I believe it does rise to the level of antisemitism how often it's portrayed as genocide by Israel alone. "Coalition genocide against Palestine" I think is fair without having to laboriously name the coalition, though that's a worthy use of space when you have it.
The danish multi-national logistic partner of us and uk military, Mærsk / Maersk would feel left out. The flow of weapons, ammunition and parts from the producers are delivered by someone. Without proper logistics, no us empire and western imperialism. Also the danish company Terma, producing 80 mission critical parts for the f-35 fleet. Everyday they make sure the fleet is functioning and the death from the skies can be delivered on the people in gaza. #MaskOffMaersk #Terma
Think more in the style of production credits at the beginning of a film: produced by Israel, in partnership with America, and in association with Germany, with the grateful participation of France and the UK, etc.
it should be whatever countries in whatever order such that you get a decent acronym. Do you know if, uh, Egypt, the Vatican and Lithuania are major contributors? (OK, probably something else--you'll want an 'A' for one thing.)
Spain is playing its classical role: if your ask the government we are completely against the genocide, though we keep weapon business (and most of the others) as usual with Israel. Like with Ukraine: we ship minor quantities of ammunition to Kiev while we are top buyers of Russian oil. ca.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/fer_l…

@nyanide @phnt @verita84 I've wondered how funny it'd be if someone made a fighting game with all the FOSS devs in it.
Like imagine Drew DeVault fighting it out with the hyprland dev, and it's got some heavy guitar riffs like it's Guilty Gear or some shit. And the stages could be a Linux con, the apartment complex parking lot, Anthrocon, the vape shop, Micro Center, the possibilities are endless.
@Suzu @verita84 Nope, the kernel doesn't implement some mandatory posix functions. None of the BSDs are posix compliant either and macOS is not compliant either as of few versions ago. AIX is though.
@verita84 @phnt I may be wrong here, because I'm not 100% familiar with the deep stuff, but I think systemd actually replaces the posix-sanctioned init system
@verita84 @phnt GNU/Linux-libre is jewish, just like how windows and macos are jewish, but GNU/Linux-libre does respect your freedom, thus it should be used instead.

I'm published. My article about #externalisation describes the problem that responsibilities that should be dealt with from within are being put outside of ourselves, the government, multinationals, countries: - Manufacturing outside the country. - Victim mentality. - Irresponsible pharmaceuticals. - Screentime and FOMO. - Religion to substitute consciousness. The list goes on.
Take time for yourself. In silence your own thoughts and ideas can come through.
My wife wants to smoke bologna, not like that you deviants. She wants to smoke a fat chubb. Wait that sounded worse. She wants to put a 5 lb slab of bologna in the smoker for 3 hours. There, that sounds better and appealing in a different sort of way.
@IceCubeSoup don’t know. I’ve never smoked processed meat. Something she found online so I know it’s true, easy, and not done by the women suggesting and sharing.
Smile is a brand-new space mission currently in the making. It will study how Earth responds to the solar wind and solar storms.
At the European Space Agency’s technical heart in the Netherlands, engineers have spent the last four months carrying out ‘spacecraft environment testing’ – putting Smile through its paces to make sure it is ready for the shaky rocket launch, the vacuum of space and the extreme temperatures it will face in orbit around Earth.
Now all complete, Smile is one step closer to launch in 2026.
This video provides a glimpse into the testing process. It is the third episode in a series of short videos, and includes interviews with David Agnolon (ESA Smile Project Manager), Chris Runciman (ESA Smile System Engineer), Laura Malena Lottes (ESA Smile Mechanical Engineer), Benjamin Vanoutryve (ESA Smile AIT/AIV and Launcher Interface Principal Engineer), Li Jing (CAS Smile Project Manager), He Tau (CAS Smile Mechanical Engineer) and Zhu Xiaofei (CAS Smile Thermal Engineer).
Smile (the Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer) is a joint mission between the European Space Agency and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Smile is due to launch on a European Vega-C rocket in 2026. Follow the latest mission news via _[em]esa.int/smile _.[/em]

@mint I saw some promotional videos for a new (read RPi powered) portable that was around the formfactor in OP maybe a year ago. Sadly the videos showcased more how the project is progressive than showcasing the actual product.

Le premier ministre propose la suppression de deux jours fériés : le lundi de Pâques et le 8-Mai. L’effort budgétaire sera porté en 2026 à 43,8 milliards d’euros, contre 40 milliards envisagés.
All its parts have been built and put together. It has been wrapped in shiny gold insulating foil. Its launch is getting closer. But the Smile spacecraft had one major phase to pass before it could be certified ready for space – and it involved testing, testing and yet more testing.

I dreamed last night I was on a cruise and went on a hike. A man stopped next to me because the pathway was too narrow to let oncoming people pass. I thought hey, that’s Tom Petty, and I said “I guess ‘I’ll politely wait my turn until it’s safe to go’ isn’t as catchy a title, huh?” 🤣
Is this the new album you've been talking about? I know the band for quite some time, but never actually got into their music — probably worth giving it another try, what album would you recommend as entry point?
I expected them to be stoner/psychedelia — and they are on PetroDragonic Apocalypse! But otherwise their sound turned out to be more diverse than I originally anticipated, I'll keep… "investigating" 😄
I've noticed this yesterday and I think it should be done as advent, knowing the task beforehand ruins part of the fun for me 😅
E.g. this one — should I use it for painting or maybe a shadow? Or maybe I should hold it for the day of orange cover — because I have a shortage of these? Seeing the whole calendar I start rearranging the order in advance, so that I have a designated cover for each of them on day 1 😂

President Trump announced on Tuesday that loathsome Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) has been caught allegedly committing mortgage fraud by Fannie Mae’s Financial Crimes Division.
Alan Dershowitz announces that NO "Epstein client list" ever existed - says the information being held back from the public in NOT the fault of AG Pam Bondi, but rather the court system: “What there is, is a redacted FBI affidavit from accusers... The redactions could be undone if you go to court. Many of the things that are being suppressed are being suppressed by two judges in Manhattan. And they're doing it largely to protect the alleged accusers who are, in the view of the judges', victims.”
