Oh wow this is super impressive: “Studying chemistry was not an obvious choice for Omar Yaghi. He & his many siblings were raised in a single room in Amman, Jordan, with no electricity or running water. School was a refuge from his otherwise challenging life.“

highland cattle have it figured out

Tom Cox @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social · 2d

Highland cattle are famous for their ability to "disco nap". Normally these brief, efficient sleeps will last between three and twenty minutes, deploying a variety of objects as pillows, including moorland boulders, cars or any particularly large dog or sheep who happens to be nearby.

Good news everyone! Brain feels better today, playing Silksong for a few hours in about 20 mins over at twitch.tv/aciddotexe if anyone wants to watch me yell at platforming in Act 2 :) (I will always be humming along to the music because it is great and I don't care if people are weirded out by it)

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

Acid, a skeleton in a f l e s h p r i s o n @aciddotexe.com · 6d

If I feel a little better later, maybe I'll boot up the ol' stream machine, but it also might be a better idea to try again tomorrow morning when I actually have to take my medication and can be assured that the gremlins will be less inclined to kick the nice feelings part of my brain

Explainer: The Dahiya Doctrine & Israel’s Use of Disproportionate Force [against civilians]

https://imeu.org/resources/resources/explainer-the-dahiya-doctrine-israels-use-of-disproportionate-force/175

It was formulated by then-General Gadi Eisenkot when he was Chief of Northern Command. As he explained in 2008 referring to a future war on Lebanon: “What happened in the Dahiya quarter of Beirut in 2006 will happen in every village from which Israel is fired on… We will apply disproportionate force on it (village) and cause great damage and destruction there. From our standpoint, these are not civilian villages, they are military bases… This is not a recommendation. This is a plan. And it has been approved.” Eisenkot went on to become chief of the general staff of the Israeli military before retiring in 2019.
While it became official Israeli military doctrine after Israel’s 2006 attack on Lebanon, Israel’s military has used disproportionate force & targeted Palestinian, Lebanese, and other civilians since Israel was established in 1948 based on the ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians, including dozens of massacres to force them to flee for their lives.

This might be a long shot, but does anyone know of some video games that can be played ENTIRELY through voice commands (without any pesky modding required)?

A game-loving family member became disabled last year and I know they've been missing video games.
