A fascinating history of warrior turtles: from ancient myths, warships and teenage mutants

Ask anyone the identity of the world’s most famed turtles, and the answer is likely to be those legendary heroes in a half-shell, the Teenage Mutant Ninjas. Since first appearing in comic book form…

Meta BEHIND Device Level Age Verification?!

Basically the Device level one (which is CA based but spreading) was because Meta considered it too much work to deal with and expensive to do (and wanted to avoid the bad results the UK is having to avoid financial liability). Thru a bunch of shell companies they paid dark money to lobby and finance candidates to push it thru so that Microsoft, Apple etc can pick up the tab instead of them for the mess.

#mushrooms #photography

Little Bell (2023) A close-up macro photograph of a small, pale mushroom growing from a moss-covered log on a forest floor, with a softly blurred woodland background. The delicate bell-shaped cap and slender dark stem are sharply rendered against the vivid green moss, creating a striking contrast in colour and texture. The low camera angle and shallow depth of field give the image an intimate, ground-level perspective that highlights the quiet detail of the forest understory.

the spectacled bear (oso de anteojos / Brillenbär / ukumari) is gladly relatively common where I live. He sometimes destroys corn fields but most people like and respect the bear as unlike Puma or Jaguar, this animal isn't percieved as a threat to humans or livestock.

I would add more proprietary software from the big companies. Linux will never become mainstream if you can't get Adobe's products or other big companies' software suites.

Or at least sodtware that is not free. I will gladly pay for a polished, well-made app.

We can't rely on "the best app ever on Linux"......in version 0.3.1 that looks like something from the Windows XP era. Sorry to say 🙂
