Today in 1816, 208 years ago: in France, a government law banishes the entire Bonaparte family.
so Peter Gleick posted this and i just could not believe it was real.
welp… it is.
this is an actual headline from THE ECONOMIST for an article published on October of 2023 and i have no words.
❝ WHAT A THIRD WORLD WAR WOULD MEAN FOR INVESTORS
gobal conflicts have a habit of sneaking up on money-managers ❞

British Airtours 5390 had a window blowout because of improper fasteners being used, it almost caused the commander to be pulled out the window. Cabin crew held onto his legs while he lay on the aircraft's nose. Pressure hulls are serious shit. Like the Alaskan accident, this was not actually at full cabin pressure either.

Perhaps they couldn't find the fasteners because there weren't any...

@beastoftraal #AltText4You. A pair of screenshots:
The first is from The NY Times. An article is titled “Everyone wants your email address. Think twice before sharing it.” It has a pop-up window which demands an email address to continue reading.
Then an article from Nature magazine, titled “The growing inaccessibility of science”. To read the article, one must subscribe to the journal, at a cost of $199 per year.
Took this on my old Pixel 2. It's the boiler plant at Bellefield, making a cloud on a very cold 0F day back in 2018. #Photography
