The Cluster Munition Monitor has documented more than 24,800 cluster munition injuries and deaths since the 1960s, three-quarters from unexploded remnants. In 2024, cluster munitions killed at least 314 civilians, the majority of them in Ukraine.

에바와는 조금 다르다고 보는데, 에바의 경우 그 느슨한 얼개처럼 보이는 공간에서 팬들이 신나게 놀고 있지만, 사실 그곳에는 공간이 없다. 그 얼개는 안노가 의도한 해석만이 존재하는 공백일 뿐이다. 이는 이후의 가이낙스계 제작자들의 작품에 많은 영향을 미쳤는데, 이로 인해 지쿠악스가 숏폼 스타일의 영상이라는 평가를 받게 되었다고 생각한다. 지쿠악스의 경우 안노의 에바에서 시작된 공백같아 보이나 공백이 없는 가이낙스계 스타일의 작품이고 그래서 더 위화감이 들 수 밖에 없었다고 본다.

It turns out that fungus growing termites sometimes cultivate Termitomyces titanicus. This is an excellent scientific name.

CORRECTION:
I assumed they had to work like ants. Wrong! (A fruiting body would only emerge from a dead ant colony not so with these termites) Something about macrotermitinaes nuptial flights stimulates mushroom fruiting. (!) They get covered in pink spores.

And you can eat it!

Hence the species name.

Mass coral death at Ningaloo Reef

A fresh survey of eight sites along WA's Ningaloo Reef has revealed more than 60 per cent of corals have died.

Record water temperatures caused widespread bleaching last summer.

Of the 1,600 corals counted in March [last year], only 600 were still alive come late October.

Coral bleaching vs mortality

When the ocean get too hot, corals expel the zooxanthellae algae that lives in their tissue.

In Western Australia, the damage to coral reefs including the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo has eclipsed any previous bleaching events.

These microorganisms give corals their bright pastel colours and disease resistance.

Their absence creates the bleaching effect many Australians have become all too familiar with.

Warramunga detected all six of North Korea's declared nuclear tests, and our data was among the first to reach the International Data Centre in Vienna.

" When a wild brumby gallops past our sensors, we pick it up. When a nuclear bomb is tested on the other side of the world, we definitely know about it."

A giant telescope pointed at Earth's centre

The facility operates two sophisticated arrays. One consists of 24 seismometers detecting vibrations through Earth, the other eight infrasound sensors picking up ultra-low-frequency sound waves inaudible to human ears.

When North Korea detonated its largest nuclear device in September 2017 — about 7,000km away — our instruments captured it clearly.

Before opening Meg's Bookshop in 1991, the Arnolds were told kids 'didn't read' in Port Pirie

After 35 years, Margie and Mark Arnold have closed the doors for the final time at Meg's Bookshop in the smelter city of Port Pirie.

The couple are being celebrated for their contribution to the community, including Margie Arnold’s authorship of a children’s book helping families to understand the effects of lead exposure and protect children’s health.

Spies, Lies and the War on Terror by Paul Todd, 2018

This book traces the transformation of intelligence from a tool for law enforcement to a means of avoiding the law--both national and international. The "War on Terror" has seen intelligence agencies emerge as major political players. "Rendition," untrammelled surveillance, torture and detention without trial are becoming normal.

Some context from that Lays ad.

People are very stupid and don’t realize that potato chips are literally made out of potatoes.

That’s why they were parading around a potato in that ad like it’s the fucking Rosetta Stone.

選挙を人気投票と思ってたり「勝ち馬に乗る」「当選者を当てる」みたいに思ってる人には、それは誤りで、「今後の政策の責任を負う」重大な選択をしたんだと理解してほしい。投票をした人と、権利があるのに投票しないことを選んで白紙委任した人たちの全員が、【自分で】【政策を】選んだんだよ。

今後起こることは、天災みたいに誰にも責任のないことじゃない。確かに選んで引き寄せた人がいて、その結果がやってくる。

Oh hey, our new website design is live:

https://colocataires.dev/

It's more reflective of what we actually are (nerds carving out a friendly hosting company in a "scrapped" datacentre, with recycled servers) and it features a new pricing page which is either more or less confusing than the old one. Let us know!

Did you know we run the whole thing off approx 550W of power? Seven physical servers, two switches and all of our VMs, serving thousands of users, for less power than a security light!
