Is eternal recurrence a problem in Parmenides notion of the One, or is it answered by saying time doesn't exist except as a token in the sensible world/ world of opinion?
Russian forces have destroyed the 300-year-old Holy Presentation Church in Ukraine’s Kherson region.
Built from oak logs in 1725 without the use of metal nails, it was the only surviving example of 18th-century Ukrainian Cossack wooden church architecture in the country.

My husband immigrated here from Ireland over 35 years ago. It was a smooth transition, and of course, because he is white, he has never been asked to show his papers EVER. Until this month when he was thrown off our health insurance because they needed "Proof of his citizenship". Thankfully he had everything filed and could easily lay his hands on his papers, and all they wanted was his naturalization number.
But then a friend of ours who immigrated from Mexico was ALSO thrown off her health insurance for the same reason. But of course, since she was not white, they wanted a real ID, her immigration PAPERS, not just her number, and her passport. And then it happened to another friend, and another. One actually helpful person my husband got a hold of at the insurance company told him it was due to Palantir!
Then I went to get my drivers license renewed. And they would not renew it because my social security card and my ID "did not match". Because one included my married name and one did not. It did not matter that it had been this way for 30 freaking years without any issue. And then I was thrown off my health insurance for the same reason. And it happened to another friend
And I see NOTHING about this, and any implication sit holds for voting in elections or anything else. I believe this is all part of the SAVE act, and they are doing everything they can to make us non voters, and we need to be aware.
I’m a bit out of my depth (har) and don’t know where to begin looking for something like this. Can they be rented?

This might be a little incoherent because I haven’t fully calmed down, but when I saw the rolls of sod being prepared to roll out onto what had previously been hectares of untouched, healing wilderness, (the largest of any North American urban area?) and one of the jewels of the river valley trail system in my usually very progressive urbanist hometown - I just lost it.
I don’t know how any city planner could have seen this vast habitat and fairly unique bit of ‘untouched’ green space and thought- you know what would make this better? If we FUCKEN MOWED THE ENTIRE THING and then SPRAYED IT WITH PESTICIDES and then MADE A GIGANTIC LAWN so that people can what - throw fucking frisbees around? Oh and it will cost $6M plus the attendant maintenance costs. Leaving it be estimated cost: 0$
Fuck that decision maker in particular. People can’t even walk past a small slice of nature because you’re not allowed to just leave the land alone.
In 1999, a family in Taylor, Texas, donated 87.797 acres to the Texas Parks and Recreation Foundation for a nominal $10, in a deed that described the land as "to be held in trust for future use as parkland by Williamson County, Texas."^([1])^([2]) The parkland wording dropped out of later deeds as the tract passed to the City of Taylor & then to the Taylor Economic Development Corporation,^([2]) which sold about 53 acres to data-center developer Blueprint for $10 million in 2025;^([3]) a 135,000-square-foot data center is planned there.
For context this is the Canadian family that decided to move to Russia and start a Homestead.
After a fairly extended vacation in Canada and the US, they returned to Russia (much to my surprise) but then two weeks later they’ve been assigned to do propaganda videos in Crimea.
This is the video that the father recorded just before being sent off to make ‘happy fun time’ videos in Crimea, but I’m pretty sure they‘d rather be back at their farm or anywhere else but Russia.
Is your name on the cup?! Didn’t think so.
This was my response to a post in r/hockey that got taken down by the mods - those joyless troglodytes. So I thought I’d share it here where real men of culture can appreciate its subtle poetic beauty.
The original post was titled “Why hasn’t a Canadian team won the cup in 33 years?”
Let me spin you a tale of a man named Wes,
And his shadowy handler they call the Bet‑man, no less.
They schemed that the sunbelt teams
should be destined to win.
T’would “grow the game,” and reward them with suntans and sin.
When a Canuck team got close, tensions high and stakes fairly grand,
They’d whisk in Wes: the league’s quiet hitman!
Half a dozen soft calls for the untaxed fave,
Then the whistle was stowed and the Yankees would rave.
It didn’t take much to tilt fate on its ears,
Just an extra powerplay here and there over the years.
And for thirty‑three seasons, through fortune and spin.
He’s been the league’s greatest winner,
The NHL’s quiet kingpin.
This why all NHLers should learn to swim. The ice is thin in Thailand.
I know we already have 8 d-men and don’t need another, but still.
I'm installing Starcraft Battlechest. I just want to compare the differences in the game between the classic and remastered version. However the installer is asking for a 26 character key and the starcraft CD has a 13 character key.
A view of Poland's northern border with Kaliningrad above, and Belarus to the right.
Now that Russia, is shall we say, distracted with other matters, there's a little principality known as Kaliningrad which is partly composed of Polish land that was stolen during the second World War. What if they just added to Russia's stress levels a little bit by massing their army along their northern border and I dunno, occasionally straying across the line just to gauge the response? It's the sort of thing Russia would do. If it weren't so preoccupied.
In fact, I wonder why this isn't happening in other places, Dagestan, Turkmenistan. Any of the Stans, really.
What would be the harm?
i’ve heard a lot of objections to the hiring of Mike Babcock, but most of the reasons are backward -looking. ‘He made weird decisions in the past therefore he’s going to make weird decisions now’ is basically how the thinking goes. However , there’s a forward-looking reason not to hire Mike Babcock.
When you hire someone who is looking to rehabilitate their career, they are not in a position to be able to take calculated risks. They can’t stick their necks out because their heads have been chopped off once already. This makes them passive and conservative in any negotiation with players and any strategy they adopt.
This is the same reason it was a mistake to hire Stan Bowman. He hasn’t been able to be bold or visionary (if it’s even within his capabilities) because he was focussed entirely on just making sure he didn’t disgrace himself in his first years after returning to the NHL.
Do people deserve second chances? Of course. There are lots of teams in the NHL who would be happy and even wise to hire a rehabilitated GM, coach, or player.
A team with a Stanley Cup window that is shutting or nearly shut needs to be able to take risks and do things that defy conventions. A veteran who is trying to cushion their retirement is not that kind of person. The Oilers need youth and brilliance in management, not just in their playing staff.
Sadly, it looks like we are not going to get it.
What happened is this game got delisted from Steam and finding keys to buy is nearly impossible so the prices are ridiculous. This game is basically abandonware. I just want to see what it was like. However it's not on steam unlocked or any of the usual places. I found this:
archive dot org /details/Star_Trek_CSF
And so I have the clean steam files (or at least I think I do).
I installed steam without logging in. I placed the files into the steam/steamapps/common folder. I put the goldberg api.dll into the same folder as the executable, and nothing happens.
I tried this on a winxp virtual machine. Same thing.
So I must be doing something wrong, but I've no idea what. I've read and re-read the readmes, and consulted a dozen guides, but frankly, none of them are very good.
I also have an iso of the CD but that seems to want me to login to steam just to start the installation, and how can that end well?
I'm very happy to send someone $10 if you can help me get this running as I figure that's about what the game is worth, if I could buy it anywhere. Which I can't.
update: I've now found a cracked.exe - used that, it says 'failed to initialize steam.' Used it to generate an interfaces.txt file. Same thing. used Steamless - not a steamstub.
