Isn’t that where Amazon makes 1/3 of their money?

Denmark is densely populated. Most rounds fired at a drone won’t hit, and will come down somewhere. Rounds designed to explode in the air occasionally don’t.

This is good shit:

Ortega is poised to receive a record dividend of €3.1bn (£2.7bn) this year from his shares in Zara’s parent group, Inditex. He is reportedly racing to spend the windfall, which would otherwise be subject to wealth taxes. Sources close to Pontegadea told the Guardian it was not investing to avoid tax, but following its mandate “to create wealth from the original assets, maintain it, make it grow, and consolidate it over generations”.

…

What is clear is that, two years on, a predicted exodus of the rich, trumpeted in endless alarmist headlines, has not materialised. Forbes counted 26 Spanish billionaires in 2021. This year, it lists 34, with a combined net worth comfortably over $200bn.

…

So far, there is no sign that it has affected growth. Spain was the world’s fastest-expanding major advanced economy last year, outpacing even the US, with GDP up 3.2%. By contrast, growth in the UK and France last year barely scraped above 1%. On the balconies of the Planeta building, and in the country at large, the green shoots are alive and well.

To any of you wags who are about to say “oh good! Now there’s two!”

But cross-border collaboration — between Brazil’s Jaguars of Iguaçu Project and Argentina’s Proyecto Yaguareté — has helped the population grow to at least 105 individuals.

A sixth man, Maltese businessman Yorgen Fenech — who was among those with close ties to the Muscat government — currently awaits trial on charges that he masterminded the Caruana Galizia hit.

Getting closer…

I’m not talking about the US, I’m talking about US Magazine. I’ve seen other US publications use “sex” to refer to sex.

Agreed. It just seems like a weird editorial decision. Maybe it’s because I’m not a regular US reader, or I live in a different country, but it seems to slightly obfuscate what happened.

Seconded.

OnlyFans star Annie Knight is sharing an update amid her recent hospitalization after sleeping with 583 men in six hours.

It’s bizarre that US uses “sleeping with” to mean “had sex with”. Readers clearly understand, she uses the word “sex” in her quotes, but the magazine/site insists on using that bizarre euphemism.

Storage and indexing is cheap. From a usability perspective indexing makes sense: call centre staff can tell someone why their unemployment application has been denied/delayed etc.

From a security perspective, Google, Proton, and friends want to track failed login IPs so they can assign (internal) reputation scores to incoming requests.

Nice summary. Thank you for taking the time to create it.

My machine is not a workhorse. I got it second hand. It has around 8gb of RAM, and an 80gb HDD I found in a laptop.

But it’s enough to work as a testbed, so it’s fine with me.

I’ve finally powered on a 15 year old machine to run a bot I’ve been writing. The thing is slow as dirt and stuck behind a flakey power line network, but it’s working. I got to write my first systemd service definition, which is kind of cool.

I get what you’re saying, but exports to the US are close to 20% of Canada’s GDP, so it’d be more like chopping off an arm or two.

Remember that it can always be worse. Even if it’s irreversible in our lifetimes, it can always be hotter and more extreme.

no

Where’s it going next?

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Expectations are low, but hope is high.

no no no this is the internet that’s not how we do things here
