Never had any problems when buying from Mouser. That said, TME.eu is the place of choice when buying parts in EU. They're very reliable, on par with the best known others. I would also take a look at Conrad, reliable as well.

Psychology explains why so many bad people are attracted by firearms and uniforms, exercise power to others, dominate, etc. Which tells why so many cops behave as abusers at home. Then rigged selection does the rest: many are picked from the worst because in case of necessity the power needs easy to control robots that do awful things without questioning orders.

And then many of them also make use of steroids and other substances that deeply affect their mood: aggression, rage, depression, etc. can all indicate the abuse of substances.

What an idiot. She should join M5S, not PD, as right now she's venting the same made up bogus pacifist propaganda that Putin dictates the clowns, both on the far right and fake left.

It is, sadly. Won't tell the dead giveaway revealing that to not further help idiots training AI (which I support) for stupid things, but yeah, this is AI.

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said when she took office in 2022 that boosting ‌the birth rate would ⁠be a government priority, but her efforts have produced scant results.

Well, you don't convince people to raise kids with right wing bogus pro-family propaganda and useless gifts. Having children is a natural process happening spontaneously when people can afford it; no need for idiotic populist crap, just help the economy, give people resources and time to afford a family and kids will come.

Confirmed. I use a modified version of SunoDownloader at https://github.com/MrDoe/SunoDownloader and now it fails all .mp3 downloads.

To add some more context for those unaware, we're talking about this guy.

All real, on national TV about 8 years ago.

Permanently banned from r/worldnews after my first and only comment against the Gaza genocide. No intention whatsoever to appeal, I rather wear that badge with pride and honor.

Glad I looked at the gun a second time. At first I read "1959", when all of them except Churchill were dead, so no need to use the gun etc. Thought it was an enigma of some sort, but looked again just in case and "whoops!".

Yes, a proper oscillator is a much better solution, also because it produces sinewaves so most radiated power will be on the target frequency rather than harmonics. Low frequencies from VLF to the lower HF allow some interesting experimentation with cheap parts that have nothing to do with radiofrequency, for example the ubiquitous LM317 regulator.

No idea if it's true, but let's assume it is for a good laugh, so pretty please make sure nobody tells him about IGBTs:

No idea if that Dept Of Wank post is true but the event happened and triggered a memory from the past: being both a certified idiot and piloting a military airplane usually don't get along well together.

If it's anything like the History Of The World sequel series, I sincerely hope he abandons the project. I literally had to force myself to finish it after the first episodes.

Ah my bad, I was thinking of the inevitable comparison with murder rates during Biden.

That's just her way of showing a more pro-EU stance now that licking Trump's boots is getting out of fashion. The whole made up argument with Trump was actually crafted to help her conquer approval from the center and slide to that direction now that we have a new extreme right party created by a fascist former general who worked in Russia and expressed admiration for Putin.

Not really even with the ten commandments. A third of them are blasphemy laws that no one in a functional society needs.

The purpose is to keep people dependent when not in fear of a higher being to ensure they don't represent a problem for the powerful ones. It all boils down to "Don't bother marching to the castle with pitchforks to hang the evil king, let God be the judge and he'll burn in hell for the eternity" so that the evil king continues his job untouched.

Not sure if these are aphid eggs, but here's a photo of one of our cork oaks here; they're full of those red ants seemingly taking care of those eggs much bigger than them. Those bastards are everywhere.

Same old tactic that dates back to over 50 years ago: if you criticize Israel (not the ethnicity, the religion, the culture or the language, just the actions) then you must be called as antisemite (= racist) because that harms your image and credibility. It happens every single time you hear someone screaming at antisemitism where actually none is involved.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weaponization_of_antisemitism

In 1973, after the Yom Kippur War, Israeli foreign minister Abba Eban wrote: "One of the chief tasks of any dialogue with the Gentile world is to prove that the distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism is not a distinction at all. Anti-Zionism is merely the new anti-Semitism."[19] Of Eban's statement, Chomsky later said: "That is a convenient stand. It cuts off a mere 100 percent of critical comment!"

It could work the other way around, actually. People over there are already regretting giving their support to Trump after inflation because of tariffs+wars and some even losing their mostly immigrant workforce after deportations. But for each right winger losing their business because of Trump, there are many who drink the kool-aid and support Trump even more loudly. Fear always works against reason, as we experienced at home some time ago.

First thing they'll do when they become the government is to implement what has been happening in the US during the last year and half, so better deal with them before it's too late. It was already too late 6 months ago IMO, but trying anyway doesn't hurt.

This is commonly called "Excusatio non petita, accusatio manifesta"

...or in layman's terms: digging his own hole in public then burying himself in. Kudos to the journalist for being ready to land that hit.

Vance (and Rubio who is cleverly maintaining a low profile) are two of the most likely 48 if Trump doesn't get a 3rd mandate. Others are just distraction like Bovino, Noem and Bondi; they'll all go when not needed anymore, replaced by other psychopaths with a better public image. If you take out Vance and put Leavitt in there you get the exact picture.

A bit misleading because of the sizes appearing a lot larger, they're actually very far away from each other than it seems, yet the number is impressive. By entering DEB you can see how much debris we have up our heads.
