Utah woman who wrote book on grief after husband’s death found guilty of murdering him

Prosecutors say Kouri Richins slipped five times the lethal dose of the synthetic opioid into a cocktail that he drank

But the old growth model is reaching its limits.

Fuck yeah!

Too much of Central and Eastern Europe still sits in the middle of value chains rather than at the top of them.

Oh… In that way. I hate this constant king of the hill. It is like we will never have enough until people understand resources are much scarcer than they seem.

The pressure isn’t really coming from clients anyway. It’s coming from the web itself, from a decade of bloated pages, dark patterns, and feature arms races that quietly redefined what a “real” website looks like. Clients are just reading the room. The room is wrong, but they’re not imagining it.

The shift might come from users, not decision-makers. It might come when enough people notice that the fast, calm site was easier to use. That they actually found what they came for. That they didn’t have to close three things before reading a single line.

Everyone is to blame here:

clients want flashy websites, not considering user experience

managers don’t translate wants to real needs and pass the problem to devs

devs like to have less work, so they will gladly insert random external dependency to fulfill the growing number of wants

users just accept shitty websites without complaining, even letting themselves take the blame - if X is slow, then it is time to buy a new PC

Finally! Degoogled android by default!

Under the reign of the spectacle, individuals were reduced to passive spectators, consuming pre-packaged images and commodities instead of actively shaping their own lives and destinies.

Loved this sentence.

That is exactly what an AI would say.

Software should be modular, well documented, well tested and free. Not because of automated tools but because it helps everyone.

Hey, as I say in another post:

The objective of learning more about the uxn ecosystem is not to create something “new” and “better”, but to learn more about PDA and associated algorithms. This will train my brain to think outside the box because of the restrictions on the way uxn works.

I was aware of the differences MIT v GPL but this piece helped me understand how it works and why it is important.

You are only allowed to talk to yourself in a vaccum.

Our main objective should be to lower barriers for people to generate their own power. When local communities manage their own grids they have faster response times to blackouts or climate events.

The only real alternative is using a Linux phone. The main problems with that would be (1) hardware support; (2) running Android apps. Although, (2) already has solutions in development or you could replace those native apps with web apps.

Comparison of Android-based Operating Systems

This is a comparison of popular Android “ROMs” (better term: AOSP distributions or Android-based OS). Please note I’m not affiliated with any of these projects and I am not giving any specific recommendation. If you think anything is factually incorrect, please let me know.

Sorry, I was making a deep dive on the developer’s X account and writting a whole rant and gave up. I deleted most of the rant but left that.

This is a disinformation post.

A new Portuguese transparency project is betting that the best anti-corruption tool may not be a commission, a speech, or another reform package, but a database.

Launched around a public call for scrutiny and contribution, the initiative — Observatório de Integridade / Open Tender Watch — aims to ingest public procurement data, connect it across multiple sources, and flag patterns that may deserve closer investigation.

The “project” is presented as an official tool but it is just a vibe-coded project (https://github.com/bit-of-a-shambles/open-tender-watch) by a random person on GitHub. The whole post rides on the radical narrative that corruption is at extreme levels and the “socialist elite”, “subsidy-dependent immigrants” are responsible.

Transparency as a Workflow

There is also something telling about the project’s open-source posture. The public repository invites not only programmers but contributors who can verify records against original portals, suggest new data sources, improve the flag catalogue, or help translate the work.

Making it public on GitHub is not enough for proving that the project is legitimate: the code was made by machine and non-tech people will never take the time to check if the data is real and processed in a fair, transparent way.

EU fights for the freedom of speech of racists and liars but stops at emerging markets and alternatives. Only to protect the people in power.

The central argument supporting the ban is that plant-based labels are misleading consumers.

However, multiple surveys have shown that Europeans support the continued use of everyday language for plant-based foods as it helps them identify what the product is trying to replicate.

Yes, uxntal is very similar and openly based on Forth. Although there are some differences.

What about request/response headers?

Finally a decent politician going on the field to help the people!

One problem that I see with nuclear is that energy production has to be accessible enough such that anyone can create their own independent network. I don’t believe nuclear has achieved this yet.
