A recent update to our Terms of Service may have raised some concerns. We’re here to address these concerns, share an update, and clarify what this really means for you.
more importantly, if they can train AI on it, it means it is not end-to-end encrypted and thus should never have been used in the first place. I recommend Magic Wormhole/Wormhole-William as a replacement.

Das Statistische Bundesamt hat Durchschnittswerte für die Bevölkerung erstellt.
Darunter der Bruttoverdienst in Vollzeit: Männer: 4.830 Euro Frauen: 4.214 Euro
Frauen verdienen im Schnitt also nur 87 Prozent so viel wie Männer. #genderpaygap
Auch im Median statt Durchschnitt, wo besonders große Einkommen weniger gewichtet werden, liegen Frauen bei 92 Prozent des Einkommens von Männern. Heißt, zusätzlich gibt es weniger extrem gut verdienende Frauen als Männer.

#Rassismus und #Hetze sind mittlerweile überall quasi zum Standard geworden. Ich kann gar nicht ausdrücken, wie sehr es mich ankotzt, dass das die Welt ist, in der wir leben.
Und es ist ja nichts abstraktes. Denn selbst, wenn es in der eigenen 'Bubble' vielleicht nicht/kaum stattfindet, darf man nicht vergessen: Dieser ständige ekelhafte Hass, der gefühlt einfach immer weiter zunimmt, kommt von Menschen, die uns umgeben. Es ist widerlich!
Vor dem Spiel in die Knie zu gehen, ist ein Zeichen gegen Rassismus. Englands Fußballerinnen werden das heute erstmals nicht tun - aus Protest gegen Rassismus. Die Geste habe sich abgenutzt.

Across the globe, artists and designers are reshaping the way we interact with the world — by turning everyday objects into smart, functional artworks. In this collection, you’ll find a bicycle repurposed as a gate, a sculpted cat door knocker, LEGO brick repairs, interactive fountains, and more. From England to Spain, these clever designs don’t just decorate public space — they change how we use it.
A red 12-speed bicycle has been transformed into a fully functional garden gate. The welded frame, wheels, and gears are integrated into a custom metal frame, offering both structure and statement.
2. Cat Door Knocker — In Clun, England
A bronze sculpture of a cat carrying a kitten by the neck serves as a whimsical and elegant door knocker. The piece is mounted on a heavy wooden door, blending fine detail with everyday utility.
3. Interactive Water Fountains — Jeppe Hein in London, UK
Children run through shifting walls of water in this interactive installation by Danish artist Jeppe Hein. Jets form a square maze that turns on and off in patterns, inviting play and surprise.
4. Screaming Gargoyles — Medieval Sculptors in Belgium
These expressive gargoyles on a Gothic cathedral wall double as drainage spouts and stone satire. Their comical, exaggerated faces remind us that even medieval architecture had a sense of humor.
This circular bench appears to float in the middle of a lake, but it’s actually accessible via a lowered path. The design plays with illusion and perspective, inviting people to walk “into” the water.
6. Vertical Garden Wall — Patrick Blanc in Madrid, Spain
French botanist and artist Patrick Blanc created this massive vertical garden, covering an entire building façade in plants. It combines architecture, ecology, and public art into a living surface.
A damaged stone wall has been creatively repaired with colorful LEGO bricks. This intervention is part of Jan Vormann’s ongoing Dispatchwork project, blending street art with urban restoration.
These benches are shaped like open books, with printed text across the “pages.” Placed in a park setting, they turn reading into a literal resting spot — merging literature and design.
Some artworks don’t just sit in nature—they become part of it. Around the world, artists are crafting sculptures and murals that seamlessly merge with their surroundings, using trees, vines, and landscapes as living elements of their work.
A raccoon checking a rusty drain, a ghost pleading with a flower, and a dog backed up by a sword-wielding mouse—these quirky chalk and painted creatures by artist David Zinn have popped up across sidewalks, stumps, and stones, creating unexpected joy in everyday places. From “Nadine and the Shared Log Cabin” nestled into a tree stump to “Sylvia” standing guard in the woods, each piece turns ordinary public surfaces into moments of quiet storytelling.
2. Randolph is a Ghost of Gardens Past, here to remind you not to overwater your begonias this year
Painted on a sidewalk corner, a ghost with upraised arms clutches a pink flower. The artwork cleverly integrates a drainage cover as its mouth, creating a surprised expression.
3. Alice has a special window for proclamations or soliloquies depending on whether anyone is listening
4. Andy is feeling awkward because his summer wings haven’t come in yet
5. Before you make any promises, I should mention that Reggie is a toad and I’m pretty sure that crown is a bottle cap
6. Chuck has a predilection for presenting primroses to pollinators
7. Clyde found a piece of cold pizza and now his whole outlook on the universe has changed
8. Ellery checks the compost bins with high hopes and low expectations and is never disappointed
9. Fun Summer Fact Sluggo’s eyes double as flotation devices and he can breathe through his soul
10. Gordon has made the unnerving discovery that he can speak Beetle
11. Nadine and the Measured Approach
12. Saul thinks you should apologize for calling Captain Tawnyshanks cute
13. Sylvia is a fierce protector of all woodlands, starting with this rock
14. Greebix is embarrassed to realize he has launched yet another alien invasion in his pajamas
15. Leonard’s motto: cultivate abundance where you find it

NO🤣! He COULD say things that cause them to immediatley go to commercial, and then he's gone. To wit, soupy sales... remember him? Telling kids to loot their parents wallets and purses and send it to him. snopes.com/fact-check/greenmai… I saw this happen. Totally corrupted my childhood 😎🤣.
do you really think that CBS and your felon will allow him to continue to tell the truth like he did last night? He'll be off-air within the month. Alas
CBS couldn't afford to buy out his contract, but they knew Trump would call it a win if CBS "fired" Colbert by letting his contract run out without costing more money. CBS chickened out but they kept their deal open Trump won't kill. Corporate politics.
Afternoon update on Chuck: he's doing better! He's eating lettuce and hay! BUT! He's been a naughty boy and pulled his catheter out *again*... so the vet thinks maybe we can leave it out, since he is producing good urine. The thought is that the meds he is on have had time to work, and hopefully now he can urinate on his own. They'll continue with meds, monitoring, and feedings, and hopefully improvement continues!
A six-month international study found that a four-day workweek with no reduction in pay significantly improved employee well-being, job satisfaction, and sleep quality, with burnout dropping most among those who reduced their hours by eight or more.
I realize this may seem like a distinction without a difference to a lot of people, but Bondi *can’t* fire a U.S. Attorney appointed by the district court under 28 U.S.C. § 546(d). Only President Trump can. We went through this with Geoffrey Berman and SDNY during Trump I… RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:mauyb…
In a Lemmy thread I made a joke about being a 10x engineer made 10x more productive by AI so was now I'm a 100x engineer. I should have known there are grifting Silicon Valley techbros actually trying to sell that garbage concept. #ai #rantbusinessinsider.com/surge-ceo-…
The comment and the humorous exchange after making fun of the sort of asshats that say either of these two things much less both combined: awful.systems/comment/7996334
I think AI/ML has potential. I think due to gross wealth inequality and neoliberal extremism grifting techbros are not capable of realizing this potential.
"On the second day of filming, I broke for lunch before everybody else. All the animals I’d worked with that morning were on the table, cut up, fricasseed, roasted and seared. That was when I decided to become a vegan." theguardian.com/film/2025/jul/…
A young human (9?) is sitting on a garden path with a small white bunny on her lap. Small Bunny seems quite content to snuggle while Young Human is singing softly to it, brushing its fur. Her voice and wafts of bunny fluff floating on the breeze.
A small human (3) in a Spiderman costume is entranced by a woman (50s?) with wild vivid purple hair. Holding Mum's hand for moral support, he looks up at her with wide eyes. Could this lady be a superhero or supervillain? Either way, Shy Spiderman is ready for all eventualities... Maybe...
A tiny human (2?) is sitting in Mum's trolley as they meander through Kmart. But wait! He's not a tiny human! He's a BIG TRUCK and he's making some mighty BRUMMM noises with added raspberry accompaniment. Little Rig keeps on rolling as Mum peruses baking dishes.
A woman (20s?) says to the owner of a quirky vintage clothing shop: "Do you have anything totally cringe from the 70s? My Granny's getting married and she's

A woman (20s?) says to the owner of a quirky vintage clothing shop: "Do you have anything totally cringe from the 70s? My Granny's getting married and she's having a disco wedding." The store owner emits a huge warm belly cackle and asks: "How d'you feel about vomit green Lurex?"
A young human (4?) is looking at cushions in a department store. Spotting one with neon beetles on it he looks up at Mum with a gravity that implies he's about to drop a very important truth: "Mum. These aren't real. They're drawings." Mum nods. This is important information, well imparted.
England zittert sich bei der Fußball-EM der Frauen ins Finale. Die Titelverteidigerinnen schlagen Italien in der Verlängerung - und haben dabei zwei Mal spätes Glück.
"There were 581 deaths due to COVID-19 in the first four months of 2025. This is 52.7% fewer deaths due to COVID-19 than the 1,229 deaths due to COVID-19 that occurred between January and April 2024 and 65.8% fewer than the 1,701 deaths due to COVID-19 that occurred between January and April 2023"
To be clear, however, our newest respiratory virus remains the deadliest of any single endemic respiratory virus. The impact of all can be reduced by distance/masking to reduce the risk of inhaling an infectious dose, vaccinating if a vaccine exists. Graphs from: health.gov.au/resources/public…
Das erste Team für das Finale der Frauenfußball-EM steht fest: England gewinnt in der Verlängerung mit 2:1 gegen Italien. Der Endspielgegner wird am Mittwoch zwischen Deutschland und Spanien ermittelt.
#PhantastikPrompts 22.7. Sequels/Serien: wie gehst du mit Resumes um ("was bisher geschah")? Das Problem hatte ich bisher noch nicht. Aber ich hatte irgendwann mal ein Buch gelesen (weiß leider nicht mehr, welches es war) da war das vorherige Buch in Briefform zusammengefasst, den eins der Protas der*m anderen geschrieben hat. Das fand ich großartig und wollte es auch mal so ausprobieren, falls ich jemals in die Verlegenheit kommen sollte …
A cross on a flag is the rough equivalent to a crescent on a flag.
On a historical scale, the time from the 19th c. adoption of the Magen David as a symbol of Judaism, to its inclusion of a national flag, to that flag being waved as a weapon against Muslims, Jews, and even Druze was about zero seconds.
Flags with religious symbols are a sign of force against other religions.
TIL In the 1950s Turkey (a member since 1949) rejected a Council of Europe proposal for a flag with a cross in golden circle over blue, citing religious concerns, despite suggestions to add a crescent to address Muslim objections. The circle of stars was adopted instead
hehe, yes it is, I however have been blessed only with grey/silver no hair loss at all and I'm 50 George, my older brother is similar with less grey than me, our father and other's all lost their early on, we are that generation, the lucky ones, there were other's on my mother's side (not all mind you) who were the same as us.
We all get old, it happens, and it's okay, not much you can do about it anyway, heh.
(in my heart of heart's I'm still that young guy with the mischievous grin in my profile pic, that's precisely why I chose it and why it is my favorite pic of me).
eeeeks. Patrick Stewart made bald sexy. Hell, there is even a sex pose called "the Picard" where you put your balls on a bald man's head, and then teabag him, like Earl Grey....hot.
Auf YouTube findest du die angesagtesten Videos und Tracks. Außerdem kannst du eigene Inhalte hochladen und mit Freunden oder gleich der ganzen Welt teilen.
well, we know Gene Roddenberry resisted casting bald men, so Patrick auditioned wearing his hairpiece. According to the anecdote, the casting executives preferred him without it.
Niemand ist normal. Jeder Mensch erlebt Momente, in denen er merkt: Ich gehöre hier nicht dazu. Hier würdigen wir das Anderssein. Und manchmal verfluchen wir es.

Yes, that would be a good summation - and an argument for clear communications.
