There was also one in Paris as part of the Moulin Rouge Garden Party that was apparently designed with inspiration from the Coney Island one.

Whilst digging, I also learned that the giant structure had been inspired by James V Lafferty’s “Elephantine Colossus”, a seven-story tourist attraction and hotel built on Coney Island in 1885, pictured below.

How dare the west not letting him murder, rape and pillage through countries. What should he do? Build his country up internally and propel it to prosperity? That is not the russian way of doing things.

There is a lot of smearing and positioning going on right now of people calling her a saint and people positioning her as a devil. Can you in your own words try to explain what she is standing for in you eyes and what you think, how the country might change under her rule?

Signal will also leave the EU market before they will give their iOS Version a backup-option (something the Android version has since years). I carry a 52 GB data blob with me that takes 15 hours to transfer from old-to-new-phone and that I could lose anytime my phone gets lost. Just because Signal does not think iOS user should be able to save their data.

Pack. The. Court!

My pocket cast stats: You’ve listened for 115 days 14 hours

Honorable mentions not yet seem in this thread (English only):

• The Guardian: The Audio long read - full articles read by real people (30-45 min.)
• Economist: Drum Tower - China correspondence about culture and politics
• Aquired - 3h+ episodes about tech IPO and the history of companies. Sounds boring but it gives a look behind the curtain of the tech industry from the 30s to today (fun example episode: PowerPoint)
• WNYC: On the media - Meta talk about media topics and enshittification
• Law and Chaos - Previously on Opening Arguments, now in their own podcast: US justice topics, GOP bashing and of course: Trump

I think he will not go to jail. And I do be not mean it like „buh, American system bad, they will never do it“, i mean it as in: they will put him on house arrest. Normal cloth. Normal food. Security at the door. If he continues to break the gag order and we reach contempt No. 20 then maybe (maybe!) we see him in an actual jail. Not before.

I have a seedbox (ultra cc). The legally questionable part happens between the seeder and my seedbox IP. I download the files via SSH/SFTP with my blank IP. Since 7 years. No popo yet.

International travel must be the worst with a tattoo like that.

Are we just sitting here, getting hacked every week by china and russia all the time and do nothing about it?

For me it is: Torrent. Leech. Seed. Repeat.

Another litmus test for the state of american justice.

Why would god do something like that to such a religious country? Did a woman show her ankle?

Reminds me about the Treaty of Zaragoza between Castile (Spain) and Portugal, where they divided the world in two half between each other. Just claim big.

Context: The “new world” was just discovered 35 yeas earlier and the world map was still very crude in the east indias and the new amazonas region - worldmaps 1530

Imagine living in a pre-lemmy world where you can not edit a title. In 2024.

If he has an amulet, jump back in the car and yell “Great! Now we only need the baby blood! To the newborn-ward!”

Can you help find Jan Marsalek?

As I said: not for contempt. Nobody who can afford a good lawyer will ever go to prison for contempt. Also: That is a depressing short list for 20 years. As if not more CEO deserved to go to prison for wage theft and other things.
