Finished reading Tress of the Emerald Sea, and was good, even if not what I was expecting. How much is a Cosmere book? I don't know; if it wasn't written as a fairy tale, may be it would have landed better. 3/5 for me.

My 7th book of 2025, but no way I'll read 24 like previous years.

Next one in the queue: Attack Surface by @pluralistic -- looking forward to it, loved Little Brother and Homeland.

"This truth may be unfashionable, unpalatable, no doubt unpopular, but, if it is the truth, the story of mankind shows that war was universal and unceasing for millions of years before armaments were invented or armies organized. Indeed, the lucid intervals of peace and order only occurred in human history after armaments in the hands of strong governments have come into being, and civilization in every age has been nursed only in cradles guarded by superior weapons…

« Côté français, l’impunité d’Israël s’est aussi traduite par celle de son premier ministre Benyamin #Nétanyahou, qui a survolé l’Hexagone pour se rendre à Washington le 7 juillet, malgré le mandat d’arrêt de la Cour pénale internationale contre lui.»

Face aux crimes israéliens, l’UE choisit l’inaction et le déshonneur

Le conseil européen des affaires étrangères de l’Union européenne n’a finalement rien statué sur son accord d’association avec Israël, pourtant bafoué. Les 27 se contentent d’un accord sans garantie sur l’aide humanitaire à Gaza.

"A single Google search requires half a millilitre of water, while ChatGPT consumes 500 millilitres for every five to 50 prompts. Multiply these figures by billions of daily interactions, add streaming services and cloud storage, and the result is staggering: data centre water consumption has reached crisis levels, with some facilities using more water annually than entire cities."

"According to industry data, a 1-megawatt data centre can consume up to 25.5 million litres of water annually just for cooling – equivalent to the daily water consumption of approximately 300,000 people. To put this in perspective, a medium-sized 15-megawatt data centre consumes as much water annually as either three average-sized hospitals or more than two 18-hole golf courses."

"Hyperscale facilities operated by companies like Google demonstrate the true scale of the challenge. Google’s data centres average 550,000 gallons (2.1 million litres) daily, totalling approximately 200 million gallons (760 million litres) annually per facility. Microsoft’s global operations consumed nearly 6.4 million cubic metres of water (approximately 1.69 billion gallons) in their most recent reporting year – a 34% increase from the previous year."

#DIY #automotive

I've been having electrical issue with my 94 Suburban. Batteries going bad (but under warranty) - 3 replacements in a year. Eventually the starter, distributor and alternator also went bad...

With each fix the "slow-start" issue remained - like the battery was low. It finally dawned on me that I must have an issue with the ground wire either to the engine block or chassis. I checked both and they were secure...

Then I called a friend who is a automotive savant - he asked if I had disconnected the ground wire to check for corrosion?

Me: duh! Why didn't I think of that?

Anyway, I pulled them apart and sure enough they were heavily corroded. I cleaned them and re-installed. Then turned the key and no slow start issue! (I'll be ordering new battery cables to replace both since they are original from 1994)

So if you have older vehicles, try cleaning the ground wire connections to avoid these issues.

I wonder how many cars are in junk yards because of this simple problem?

an once of prevention...

They were also bad... Caused by the intermittent ground. If special note: the voltage regulator is inside the alternator that was allowing the alternator to put out 14.4 to 14.7 volts. The circle of life in electrical form.

Not to mention the water pump was leaking from the weep hole... And by "leaking" I mean gushing.

Also, let me add a "fuck you" to the chevy engineer who thought the voltage regulator inside the alternator was a good idea.

@Otto Pureblood That's true. I usually opt for third party alternators myself, I usually use Leece-Neville's. There was a time when I had a setup where I had two alternators running with dual pulleys.

The original alternator would charge up the battery up front and the second one would charge up the batteries in the back, that run the other electronics such as inverters and such. I'm sort of a mad scientist or at least I once was. I'm not a scientist any longer but I may still be mad.

My OP observed that Jolani tried to please Israel and was bombed regardless.

You can ⋅infer⋅ whatever the hell you want from that, but the words on the page if anything were a comment on what everyone ELSE should do, namely, not bother trying to befriend Israel, not a comment on what Israel should do.

If you want a comment on what Israel should do:
Get the fuck off its neighbour's territories, stop bombing everyone, stop mass murdering people, extradite your own mass murderers to The Hague, disavow ethno-supremacism, pay reparations, etc.

Now you’re just embarrassing yourself.

I think it's fair to say this conversation has run its course.

It's clear now why you can't see the parallel universe: you're inside it. In the actual, empirical reality experience by everyone else, literally not one of those claims is even remotely true, as even a passing familiarity with the facts would make obvious.

Bye now.

Des études ont montré que les personnes qui avaient le plus peur de l’immigration étaient celles qui y était le moins exposées (quartiers chics et rase campagne)… justement parce qu’ils croient ce qu’on leur dit sans voir de leurs yeux que c’est des conneries.

#Israel, being stuck in a costly war of attrition in #Gaza, now diverts attention to a reckless offensive against #Syria. It seems hellbent on dividing the wartorn country, or perhaps occupying its south. And the conduct of the new idiotic regime in Syria is not helping, with reports about atrocities in the #Sweida governorate committed by government forces. What pains me too is that there are little to no reliable sources to know what is happening.

I didn’t choose this hunger.
It wasn’t weakness, or a wish to die.
Hunger was forced on us — used as a weapon by the occupation.
They chose to starve us on purpose,
denying us even the most basic needs,
until our stomachs were empty and our hearts heavy with pain.

No one should have to suffer like this.
If this touched you, please don’t stay silent.
