  1. His victory on Sunday added another reversal to an extraordinary political career. Mr. Lula, 80, helped found the Workers’ Party under military rule and lost three presidential elections before winning in 2002. Jailed and barred from running in 2018, he returned to defeat Jair Bolsonaro in 2022 after his corruption convictions were annulled the previous year. He has now won an unprecedented fourth term.

  3. The young baristas tell me the tiktokkers are evading censors in France by putting up clips of their police outnumbering their student protesters to the tunes of The Hunger Games, 2012.

    The three-finger salute is a hand gesture made by raising the index, middle and ring fingers, while holding the thumb to the little finger, and raising the hand with the palm facing out in a salute.

    Three fingers.

    Liberté, égalité, fraternité.

  4. The secondary impact of a massive buyout (that puts a lot of voluntarily displaced workers in job market) is to extend the job search for long-term unemployed and recent college graduates still looking for their first job.

  6. Brazil: "Lula Wins Stunning Upset Over Flávio Bolsonaro in Blow to Far Right & Trump"

    Lula’s surprise comeback comes after weeks of student-led organizing on his behalf. "The amount of organizing that we’ve seen in the last three weeks is absolutely unprecedented - an absolute game-changer for the region.”

    ~Michael Fox

    "Bolsonaro, who narrowly defeated Lula in the first round of voting... is now refusing to concede."

  16. #Halloween comes from "All Hallows' Eve", being the night before All Hallows' Day ("All Saints' Day"), which is followed by "All Souls' Day" on 2 November. These three days are a part of Allhallowtide, a time when Western #Christians honour all #Christian martyrs and saints, as well as pray for departed souls.[47] Halloween is influenced by Christian beliefs and practices surrounding these holy days.[48][49][47] Christian holidays such as Christmas and Easter have vigils that begin the night before, as does the feast of All Hallows.[50] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween

    why ruin #pumkins ?

    It’s not meant to ruin them, it’s a Halloween tradition. People in #Ireland and #Britain originally carved faces into #turnip and other root #vegetable, then put a light inside, partly to ward off spirits. When the tradition came to North America, pumpkins were easier to carve, so they became the jack-o’-lanterns we know today.

  18. For the grand reopening of the newly restored National Museum #Herat in Afghanistan, we were asked to create three dioramas.

    The idea was to present famous miniature paintings from Islamic manuscripts in a new way. Because perspective plays a key role, we made it real by turning the 2D miniatures into 3D dioramas.

    The model-maker then used our to-scale 3D models to build the final pieces.

  19. There's _very_ few options for 200mm ARGB fans in the UK. But I just replaced one of the two front fans on my wife's PC because it was starting to grind.

    And now there's three annoying things:
    1) I didn't think about fan depth (they're normally fairly consistent!) and it's deeper and so the case front won't fully attach 😑
    2) They're now two different brands (because there was only one left in stock) and so the lights aren't in sync yet 😐
    3) I had to swap over extra cables because I'd previously connected the old fan to fan power 1 and ARGB 2 on the splitter board! Not that it makes a difference when they're both front fans and you're not syncing speed to colour or anything, but it was still Mixed Up And Wrong™! 😬

  21. Practical angle for platform teams: on 24 Oct, Oracle's JDK update removed eMudhra's G1, G2 and G3 roots from the default Java truststore. A precaution, not proof that all three roots were compromised, but it's how a CA incident becomes an application incident. Do you know which of your services trust which roots?

  22. The Change by Kirsten Miller

    I think I discovered this book because of the Book Cougars. I watch so many YouTube book reviewers though that I am not sure.

    The Change is about three women who find the body of a young girl stashed in a garbage bag and thrown over the side of a rode. They discover that she is one of several missing girls.

    The main characters are Nessa James, a widow with twin daughters, Harriet Osborne a woman whose career and marriage was destroyed at the same time, and Jo Levison a woman who owns a fitness center designed to give women back their strength in more ways than one. Jo is happily married and has a young daughter.

    Nessa has a special ability to speak with the dead. When they discover the first body, she becomes aware of more.

    The women take it upon themselves to investigate and give closure to all the families. They quickly realize the deaths are connected to a gated community not too far from where the bodies were disposed of.

    This story gave me vibes of the Epstein files. It’s about those with wealth who think their needs are more important than life itself. The copyright is 2022 so that may have sparked an idea.

    I don’t usually read fantasy, but this one felt more like a mystery. The more I read, I realize how the boundaries of genre seem to sometimes be harder to define. This one does have a little paranormal storyline because of Nessa’s special ability, Harriet likes to work with plants, and Jo finds her strength in an odd way.

    I picked this one up to read now because we were moving into the spooky time and it had witchy vibes.

    I had a friend who reviewed it on Goodreads and was disappointed in the book because of some of the violence. I get that but I also think that reading it now having watched how our current administration is refusing to investigate the Epstein files and punish those who are guilty, it makes a little more sense to me. I understood the need for the violence to clear out the evil that had saturated the community.

    It is a story about how one person can make a difference and how three women made a change.

    It is well written. I enjoyed it and would look more from this author in the future.

    This book is a commitment at 470 pages in hardcover and counts toward my unending books on my shelf to read. I like books at 300 pages or less, but this one seemed like a fast read.

    I had a couple of bookish adventures this past week. Both were at Beaverdale Books, a local indie bookstore. The first was an author event with D. M. Pulley. She was promoting her book Stone Mad. She is an architect and has a love for old buildings. She finds buildings with a reputation for being haunted along with a possible real-life crime and creates a mystery. I purchased her newest release Stone Mad and can’t wait to read it. I will be reading her backlist as well.

    My second bookish adventure was also at Beaverdale Books. Four authors from my Sister’s in Crime chapter came to play a game with the readers. It was interactive. We helped choose the main character, setting, motive, weapon, and a few other tools in the making of a mystery. We helped show the readers what it is like to develop a mystery as it is written. It was fun and there were treats.

    Let me know if you have a good book I need to read.

    Happy Reading!
