  1. Neuer Rekord!!!

    Mit 83 km/h ist vorhin ein Audi Avant in die Ortschaft gebrettert. Von Abbremsen keine Spur, die Bremsleuchten gingen erst weit hinter der digitalen Geschwindigkeitsmesseinrichtung, die selbst schon gut 200 m nach dem Ortsschild steht, an.

  2. 🚀 So, #Octane is here to save us from the tyranny of React’s rules with its “no rules” approach, but we’re still talking about hooks like they’re some kind of revolutionary concept 🙄. No virtual DOM, just virtual confusion as we pretend this is radically different and not just another #JavaScript #framework in a shiny new wrapper. 🎉

  3. In honor of Trump’s attendance at Game 3 of the NBA Finals, the refs have stopped calling fouls if they come from the Red State team. #NoRules #GoKnicks

  4. I don't know who hung a "rue barrée" (road closed) sign between the incinerator smokestacks on des Carrières, but I salute you, whoever you are.

  5. I'm calling this composting experiment a success! I chuck my food waste and yard waste into it, maybe stir it a bit if I think about it, and after about 3 months, I go flip piles.

    ~ 7 cubic feet of compost over the year, and I used some for my fall greens row and some potted plants. They're doing great!

    Guess DaveTheGood was right - no rules, no stress, and it worked.

  6. After about 3 more months, I flipped the compost bins again. This time (with learned experience) was a lot easier and I ended up with a lot more compost.

    The pile measures about 1 ft x 2ft x 3 ft, which, if I'm doing math correctly, is 6 cubic feet. I had used about half of my 1 cu.ft. previously, so that was quite a bit of compost that I made over the summer.

  7. Speaking of the ruling class, the master's thesis I read this morning about the #BronzeAgeCollapse was interesting, but far from complete. The author (Paul Golightly) is limited by older published studies (the paper is from 2014), and does include a reference to Eric Cline's "The Oxford Handbook of the Bronze Age Aegean" (from 2010), but does not have the depth and breadth of Cline's 1177 BC works cited.

    I did find this quote, which I thought was relevant to my posts from yesterday:

    "The Mycenaean Age was ruled by wa-na-ka from palaces that were spread across
    Greece. Wa-na-ka is the Mycenaean word for #king or leader. With the fall of the Mycenaeans many things disappeared. Among these are luxury items such as gold, silver, ivory, and monumental stone architecture. The wa-na-ka and palaces controlled many aspects of Greek life
    and, in many ways, without them one would know very little about the Mycenaeans. It was for the wa-na-ka that art and writing were used and after there were no more wa-na-ka the need an use of these disappeared. One of the most important things that defines a civilization and gives clues to how a people lived is their writing. In the case of the Mycenaeans it was the writing of
    Linear B.6 As far as we know Linear B was written only by palace scribes for official business. When the wa-na-ka and the ruling class disappeared, killed in wars and fleeing to other parts of the world, one sees that writing completely disappeared. This proves that the illiteracy in Mycenaean Greece was prevalent. Only the palace and the scribes were able to read or write and the peasants were not able to do so.

    "The wa-na-ka and ruling class also controlled luxury items in Mycenaean Greece and the peasants had no need for these items. So, when the wa-na-ka went by the wayside the luxury goods and art disappeared as well. Before the fall there were many examples of gold, silver, and fine art. After this time there is no evidence of these items, almost no graves with gold, gems, or objects of fine craftsmanship. It is assumed that when the wa-na-ka and all types of luxury
    goods disappeared, the people who made these luxury goods disappeared. The population was severely depleted after the fall of the palaces.

    "It was not only luxury items that were controlled by the wa-na-ka and palaces; they also controlled the economy and most of the excess food that was produced in the area. In fact, the palaces controlled a large portion of the Mycenaean Greek economy; both food and other items went through the palaces, as attested by the tablets found in storage places."

  8. @de Wie wäre es einmal im Jahr für ein WE die Autobahn von München nach Berlin zu sperren und zeigen was wirklich Vollgas bedeutet und ob unter 2 Stunden wirklich möglich ist. #Cannonball #NoRules #TheRace

  9. Indeed, Vae Victis*, is very applicable to what the GOP is doing to the #US.

    As you say, an occupying power.

    * Vae Victis: Woe to the conquered".
    It expresses the sentiment that the defeated in battle are at the mercy of the victors.

  10. We (@DevRhiana and I) Introduced the children to Eurovision.

    Now when they get home instead of asking awkward questions like "what does 'sexy' mean?" or "can we watch Skibidi Toilet?", they instead ask "can we watch more music from Finland?"

    AVENGED SEVENFOLD's M. SHADOWS Says Metal 'Should Have No Rules': 'Just Do Whatever You Want'
    In a new interview with Indonesia's Medcom.id, AVENGED SEVENFOLD singer M. Shadows was asked if he thinks heavy metal music should incorporate other sounds and styles from outside of what many consider to concretely be heavy metal. He responded (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "Oh, I don't know...
