For the first time this winter, the polar vortex... is expected to break up. 🧐 Although it is currently strong, it will begin to weaken over the next seven days and split into several smaller vortices by mid-February. This process could bring below-average temperatures to Europe in the second half of February. 🤗show more

Due to overwhelming high demand, a number of orders... from our first batch have unfortunately been moved to the second batch, which is now 90% ordered! Our manufacturers are hard at work to keep up with strong demand and we estimate that the second batch will now be sent the latter part of June. As part of this second batch we will update you by email with Fedex tracking numbers so you can see in real time where the mining rig is in the system. We apologize to those affected by this production demand, but rest assured us and the manufacturers are working hard to clear the backlog. Thank you for your patience and support!show more

The first of ten more buses leaving from Sherwood... is being loaded. Malawian women and children are being prioritised for this leg of the repatriation. Premier Thami Ntuli earlier confirmed that deportation processes are also currently being explored. A steering committee - consisting of all agencies involved - has been formed to manage what is taking place. The number outside the community hall is estimated at well over six thousand, growing steadily since last week. A second site in the area has also been identified, where some of the men will wait until they are sent home. Verification of these individuals continues. eNCAshow more

I made a second version of the transformation video.... This time I moved the character into a real environment instead of using a plain white background. I also changed the opening and showed the final transformation result first. The overall flow feels much stronger now. Full workflow + prompts: The interesting part is that this type of video is much easier to make than it looks. You only need a base image, then generate the next keyframe through simple edits or outfit changes on the canvas. The entire transformation sequence is built from those keyframes.show more

The Telegraph reports that the US doesn’t have enough... missiles to return to an all-out war on Iran. At the same time, the US’ emergency oil reserve has fallen to its lowest level since 1983. Military force didn’t work against Iran the first time in fulfilling any of the US’ objectives, and now the US has even less military force as Trump tries Round 2 of the same, failed option. Trying military force for a second time will only make Iran more intransigent and unwilling to negotiate… Which will mean that the global economy and the American economy is at an even greater risk as global oil reserves have been spent on artificially keeping oil prices lower. As those reserves run out, that ability evaporates. The blustering stupidity of American neoconservative foreign policy.show more

This guys money has been locked on Exness for... about 2 months. Exness is not a prop firm. Exness, you are frustrating this dude, and it’s so bad and unacceptable to the entire trading community. This guy has submitted everything asked of him the first and second time, so why are you still holding his money? I honestly do not know why someone will fund money in a broker, trade, make profit, and when it’s time to withdraw, they ask for source of funds. Source of funds for how much? If this continues, how are we to trust Exness with our money? Because this can happen to anyone. Exness, I reached out to you personally, and nothing was done about it. Hence the reason I’m bringing this here for the second time, and I’m sounding so pained because I understand how one can feel about this. The funniest thing is that this guy trades for people, and those people are on his neck, meanwhile Exness is holding the money. I think it’s high time we consider Exness a bad broker for doing this. No trust with our funds anymore.show more

I look at all markets. Sectors, asset classes, bonds,... metals, energy, and sentiment. Why? Because there is a finite amount of liquidity in the system, and it all has to go somewhere. The main driver is fundamentals, but every now and then, macro comes into play. We have literally gone straight up for the last 6 weeks. Sure, it might be time for a pullback, but it was also time 2 weeks ago. However, let’s not kid ourselves, the last 6 weeks have been the most outstanding performance of my our career. You can never sell the top, and you’ll never catch the bottom consistently. My best ideas have done VERY well YTD and have had breakneck rallies in the last 6 weeks. No, I didn’t go all in on software. I also didn’t go all in on oil stocks at the worst time possible or FOMO into $NBIS or $MRVL today. I have been looking hard at leading themes every day. No breaks. That is exactly what I do. And I love it. I learn every day from everyone. There are so many people to thank, but the job is not over. The job is never done. Keep going. Whether long, short, flat… just keep going. I ALWAYS will. This is my vow to the community. God bless. 🫡show more

+1🥹🎉 Happy Birthday to me🥹🎉 Not a birthday speech... person but I’m pretty sure that first frame would be FUCKING PROUD of what we’re becoming/we’ve become today . The year it got crazy. The Burti is still being televised. This time Last year we were trying to pass Naira Trader Evaluation accounts. Today we’re multiple 6 FIGURES FUNDED. The work has only started. Cheers to hopefully hitting $50K in payouts in the second half of the year and a general productive year in good health. The Burti is being televised ONLYLUSODONTMI$$!!!show more

From International Space Station, we have a unique vantage... point to observe lightning storms from directly above them. Much like from the ground, they appear as rapid, intense flashes that are over as quickly as they started. But, with the help of handheld cameras and a bit of practice (and, admittedly, some luck), we can capture these intense flashes with a very high frame rate then slow them down to see how the lightning propagates. It's lightning, in slow motion. This is one that occurred over Indonesia on 6/28. I shot it for a half second at 1/120 frame rate, so, 60 separate frames. I then compiled those frames into two videos: the first, in real-time, and the second, slowed down so that each frame is a half second to highlight the progression of the flash. Note the incredible burst of light in one frame, which includes what is likely a TLE on the upper left. A TLE, or Transient Luminous Event, is an electrical discharge that happens in the upper atmosphere above lightning storms (if you haven’t seen Nichole “Vapor” Ayers TLE photo from last week, head over to her page). As their name implies, these are transient, or short lived, phenomena – it appeared in only one frame of the sequence, lasting for no more than 1/120th of a second. The last photo is that single frame. Absolutely incredible.show more

Set seven years after its predecessor, the story follows... the Prince as he searches for a way to stop an entity called the Dahaka that is relentlessly pursuing him as punishment for his meddling with the Sands of Time. He travels to the mysterious Island of Time, where he attempts to prevent the Empress of Time from creating the Sands in the first place, hoping this act will appease the Dahaka. Gameplay in Warrior Within builds upon that of The Sands of Time, adding new features, specifically, options in combat. The Prince has the ability to wield two weapons at a time and to steal his enemies' weapons and throw them. The Prince's repertoire of combat moves has been expanded into varying strings that allow players to attack enemies with more complexity than was possible in the previous game. Warrior Within has a darker tone than its predecessor, adding in the ability for the Prince to dispatch his enemies with various gory finishing moves. In addition to the rewind, slow-down, and speed-up powers from Sands of Time, the Prince also has a new sand power: a circular "wave" of sand that knocks down all surrounding enemies as well as damaging them. This is our low-poly take on the scene from the game. Play now on GOG COM! #princeofpersia #retrogaming #retrostyle #classicgamesshow more

I think I’m close to a burn out. For... the last few weeks it feels like I haven’t been able to think. Let alone do deep work. My brain just draws a blank. Super frustrating. Even thinking what tiles I should put into our new house feels like too much already. The first few weeks I tried to force myself to work anyway. Obviously made it even worse. So, this week I decided I’m just going to take a break. Go on hikes, drive my bike, read books and play video games. I had this before and eventually it would go away. Made me realise though that I should put guards into place for the next time. Building a team is part of this. Focus on what I like to do and get help with all other tasks. Implement some load balancing. Fingers crossed it goes away soon 🤞 /endtransparencyshow more

Tala Hydroelectric Power Station, Bhutan!! An alarming video has... surfaced showing the Wangchu River(Raidak River in India) overflowing the dam for the first time ever. Although the dam is still intact, the extent of the damage will only be clear after the floodwaters subside. The dam continues to generate electricity, and the spillway gates remain open, but the water flow is extremely high. The Bhutan government has already been in touch with the state authorities. If more water is released, it could lead to a repeat of the devastating 1993 flood. Courtesy-Saheb Sarkarshow more

Just weeks ago I considered this to be a... map of Superchargers. The foundation that made EV’s a going concern for the first time. But it’s not. These dots represent fully permitted and built power stations in an era where every AI player is trying to figure out how to get power for compute. This is the largest electrical power moat I’ve ever seen that can fully supply current and future charging needs while collecting and storing cheaper power during off-peak to supply an AI revolution. Elon doesn’t care who knows anymore. 2nd place is… crumbs. AWS was built from excess server space needed during peak demand. Now it’s bigger and more valuable than the core Amazon retail business. Tesla is about to drop a hardware smackdown right in the face of software engineers. AI prototypes are easy. Scaling is hard. If only Tesla had a factory pouring out millions of chips each year that are underutilized 95% of the time. Each with their own battery storage. Imagine that. Tesla could call them ‘cars’. And that power moat? It’s all fully upgradable. It’s primed to be tripled. Only a handful of Tesla charging stations currently have solar and/or Megapacks. For 14 years Tesla has permitted and built the gas stations of the future around the world. Everyone said it would fail. All of them were wrong. And now Tesla is in a process of creating a possible 10x value stamp on those stations that should have never been built. It makes you wonder, When a vehicle now leaves the Tesla factory; how do we even begin to calculate the economic production that it will generate during its lifetime? It’s a Robotaxi, energy storage, and a fully sealed/cooled compute processor. They may as well start shitting gold out of a tailpipe.show more

Here is an example of what I mean by... my post I quoted. There was nothing on the road, yet FSD 14.2 went over the line and ripples to avoid whatever it may have imagined. I was startled for a second and can only imagine the shock for someone trying FSD for the very first time. No, the car in the opposite lane did not come over to my side either Again, that alone would have been enough for my wife's solid "Nope, I am not using that." (I filtered out my voice, as I was on the phone.)show more
