@Teri_Kanefield as someone who’s spent zero time in courtrooms other than almost being a juror I’m curious, is it normal to violate a judges order ten times and not end up in jail by noon? And I realize there’s gray area here. Just curious because it seems extreme 😳

@Teri_Kanefield I'm referring to this:

“I find you in criminal contempt for the 10th time,” said Justice Juan Merchan, who said he is concerned that Donald Trump has apparently not taken heed of his prior findings.

“Going forward, this court will have to consider a jail sentence. The last thing I want to do is put you in jail.”

One #disc to store it all?

Read and write speed is probably the biggest technical hurdle to overcome if this technology does prove to be viable, especially for consumer use.

[Washington Post]: The scheduled order of votes Saturday afternoon is significant. It’s notable that the funding for Ukraine will be voted on before the Israel bill. That is the order that Democrats wanted because there was worry among Democrats that if Israel was voted on before Ukraine, Republicans would have no incentive to support Ukraine funding and jeopardize the measure’s passage.

This article confirms my worst fear of the #movie #CivilWar depicting an unearned adoration of the #press in general, given its utter failure since at least the 1980's to consistently name people and things as they are and to "speak truth to power", at least here in the #US.

Apparently #film director #AlexGarland follows the disproven ethos of "objectivity", which avoids responsibility for stating truths, ignoring that such "silence" always sides with oppression

Anyone know any other games similar to the Oracle ones? Already have a few (Anodyne, Lenna's Inception), looking for more.

The Zelda games on the Game Boy and Colour are unique within the Zelda series as a whole. Strange plots, enemies, music, mystery and even gameplay plague the three games. Hell, in Link's Awakening half the enemies are straight up from Super Mario Bros. And the oracle games come with novels and feature interconnected password...

@mandymichael I found it at https://variablefonts.dev/rss.xml. It used to be at https://variablefonts.dev/feed.xml, but that’s empty now, so it looked like the feed is gone.

Here's the result of a little Picotron experiment tonight. (Manually re-created the sprites.) Of note, all the sprites use the default palette, with the exception of Locke's hair. I had to set a customized colour to match his SNES sprite since the other colours I tried weren't quite right. In the years to come, I bet we're going to see some very impressive Picotron carts.

A small Picotron scene. Link, from The Legend of the Zelda: A Link to the Past crudely moves around a barren map, with a few stone, bush, and flower sprites scattered about. Locke from Final Fantasy VI makes an appearance, but he is just standing around looking all cool.

homura1650, to 196 in Not Foreign Shills Rule

And the police did stop traffic from getting onto the bridge. Listening to the police audio [0], it sounds like they were in position almost immediately after the request came in. Having said that, I don’t think they were quite fast enough for the traffic already on the bridge to get off.

If they had responded faster, they might have made it in time for the one officer to be on the bridge evacuating the workers when it collapsed. With the benefit of hindsight, that would have accomplished nothing except 1 more death.

I’m often pretty critical of police, but I see absolutely nothing they could have done better in this case.

homura1650, to news in Baltimore bridge collapses into river after being hit by cargo ship

Police audio from the event:

washingtonpost.com/…/baltimore-key-bridge-collaps…

It sounds like police got their just in time to stop traffic. One of the officers says that as soon as backup arrives to take over stopping traffic he would go and evacuate the workers; when we get the report that the bridge is gone.

If you watch the stream of the crash, you can see that traffic was flowing just moments before it fell.

    KEY UPDATE
    Israeli authorities stop U.N. aid agency head from entering Gaza (Washington Post, 2024-03-18)
    ———

    “Israeli authorities told Philippe Lazzarini, the head of the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, #UNRWA, that he was not permitted to enter the Gaza Strip on a planned visit Monday. This is the first time that a top UNRWA official has been denied entry to Gaza since the beginning of the war that began with Hamas’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel.”

    I don't understand why some "professionals" often use only ready-made libraries for website design. No, not everything is easy but, for example, creating so that users can see how they lead outside the is standard in my opinion.

    I have illustrated it for clarification. You can of course change the 's to other UTF-8 characters or position according to the desired ;)

    🧵 …I am of the same opinion and you can see how WebDev can also mark links via CSS above in the Toot.
