I've worked for Rockstar Lincoln since July 2014 as a tester, and since October 2018 as a Senior Tester. The majority of the time I've spent on Red Dead Redemption 2 I was testing art, and have thoroughly enjoyed working on and contributing towards such a magnificent world.
In my time here I've only worked on nightshift, with a core shift pattern of either 6.30pm-3am, or 9pm-5.30am, the latter to accommodate for the overtime of dayshift workers.
In 2017 I worked virtually no overtime, with a core 37.5 hours worked every week.
On m'a envoyé cette publication du frère `Umar. Comme je l'ai dit l'autre jour, je ne compte plus prêter attention aux publications de ce frère tant qu'il ne fasse pas preuve d'humilité, d'adab, de science et d'exactitude. 
Et je ne dis pas ça car je me considère supérieur, loin de là, c'est avant tout pour lui. Il devrait apaiser son cœur et sortir de ces polémiques stériles et redondantes. Je l'invite sincèrement à prendre du recul sur lui-même et à se nourrir de spiritualité un bon moment.
Même s'il ne veut pas lire des ouvrages d'ash'arites tels qu'al-Ghazali, au moins Ibn al-Qayyim et ce qu'il écrivit dans le domaine spirituel. Ce conseil s'applique à moi avant tout et aussi à tous ceux qui sont concernés par ces caractéristiques. Ne nous oublions pas
🚨 BREAKING: FDA declares war on 1.5 million Americans who depend on natural thyroid medication
After 130 years of safe use, they want to BAN desiccated thyroid extract—the ONLY treatment that works for millions
@RWMaloneMD : "You might think FDA wanted older women disabled with brittle bones, cognitive decline, metabolic disease"

A thread 🧵
1⃣The Bioidentical Truth
Natural thyroid isn't just "another option"—it's the COMPLETE hormone your body recognizes:
✓ T4, T3, T2, T1 + Calcitonin
✓ Bioidentical molecular structure
✓ Natural conformational folding
✓ 130 years proven safe
Synthetic? Just T4. Made in a lab. Foreign to your cells.
Your body KNOWS the difference.

2⃣ The Science/Patient Preference
BOMBSHELL STUDY the FDA wants buried:
48.6% of patients prefer natural thyroid Only 18.6% prefer synthetic Patients LOST 3-4 lbs on natural (without trying!) Significant improvements in wellbeing (p<0.001)
That's a 3-to-1 preference for natural. In any other field, we'd call this a landslide victory.

In a normal world, this should be an immense scandal in Europe.
Le Monde has a long article (lemonde.fr/international/…) describing the hellish life of Nicolas Guillou, a French judge at the ICC in The Hague, due to U.S. sanctions punishing him for authorizing arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant for war crimes in Gaza.
Guillou's daily existence has been transformed into a Kafkaesque nightmare. He cannot: open or maintain accounts with Google, Amazon, Apple, or any US company; make hotel reservations (Expedia canceled his booking in France hours after he made it); conduct online commerce, since he can't know if the packaging is American; use any major credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex are all American); access normal banking services, even with non-American banks, as banks worldwide close sanctioned accounts; conduct virtually any financial transaction.
He describes it as being "economically banned across most of the planet," including in his own country, France, and where he works, the Netherlands.
That's the real shocking aspect of this: the Americans are:
- punishing a European citizen
- for doing his job in Europe
- applying laws Europe officially supports
- at an institution based in Europe
- that Europe helped create and fund
and Europe is not only doing essentially nothing to protect him, they're actively enforcing America's sanctions against their own citizen - European banks closing his accounts, European companies refusing him service, European institutions standing by while Washington destroys a European judge's life on European soil.
Again, in a normal world, European leaders and citizens should be absolutely outraged about this. But we've so normalized the hollowing out of European sovereignty that the sight of a European citizen being economically executed on European soil for upholding European law is treated, at best, as an unfortunate technical complication in transatlantic relations.

thanks to the vision and efforts of Siddaramappa Manvi.
Siddaramappa was an early experimenter in electricity. He first used dynamos to light factory buildings at night. Seeing how effective this was, he wondered: If factories can have electric lights, why not towns?

He soon got a chance to try this idea at the Mahalakshmi Theatre, where the Konnur Drama Company was performing. He used a dynamo to light up the stage, and the bright, steady light amazed the audience. This success convinced him that electric lighting could change public life.

De entrada, debo decir que mi despacho, Frago & Suárez, ha participado en el juicio como acusación popular (y formulamos acusación por el delito por el que se ha terminado condenando). El trabajo de todos ha sido descomunal.
Dicho esto, vamos allá.
Dicho esto, vamos allá.
Lo primero: ¿por qué este caso era tan importante? En esencia, porque, más allá de lo estrictamente jurídico, debía responderse a una pregunta fundamental.
¿Un Fiscal General del Estado, con la intención de beneficiar políticamente al Gobierno del que depende, puede usar el inmenso poder que tiene en sus manos para aplastar al ciudadano de a pie que le venga en gana?
Parafraseando a Arthur Koestler, ¿el Estado es el infinito, que todo lo puede, y el individuo el cero, reducido a la nada? El Tribunal Supremo, con su condena a Álvaro García Ortiz, ha respondido que no.

Mass migration poses an existential threat to Western civilization and undermines the stability of key American allies.
Today the State Department instructed U.S. embassies to report on the human rights implications and public safety impacts of mass migration.

1️⃣ Abro un navegador y busco «cita previa para renovar el DNI». Aterrizo en citapreviadnie.es. Un sitio que parece oficial. No lo digo por los emblemas institucionales, sino por el diseño estilo «Microsoft Frontpage 1998».
Lo primero que me llama la atención es que el ¿botón? para iniciar el trámite sea el enlace más discreto de la página, abajo y en pequeño.
No es que sea un drama, pero bueno, seguimos.

No es que sea un drama, pero bueno, seguimos.
Dejando a un lado la estética cutre, comienzo a leer y encuentro la redacción intrincada y confusa.
El título dice que el trámite es para la «solicitud, consulta o anulación» de cita previa del DNI o pasaporte. Pero la siguiente línea habla de «obtención o renovación». Es decir, el trámite parece servir para cinco acciones:
—Solicitar
—Consultar
—Anular
—Obtener
—Renovar
Los tres primeros, de la cita previa. Los otros dos, del DNI o pasaporte.
Pero el título habla de «DNI», mientras que el primer párrafo, en cambio, de «DNIe». No sé si es un error o que aquí no puedo pedir cita para el DNIe. Si así fuera, ¿dónde podría?
Un poco más abajo pone «Se recuerda a todos los ciudadanos que deben acudir a su cita puntualmente». Vale, pero eso no es importante ahora. Dime eso cuando haya obtenido mi cita, no antes. Es más fácil que lo tenga en cuenta si me lo pones en la cita que si me lo dices al principio del trámite.
Pone también «Recuerden también consultar en dnielectronico.es, en el menú […] los requisitos necesarios para […]» Hmmm... vale; entendido. Así que hay dos portales:
—citapreviadnie.es ← donde estoy ahora
—dnielectronico.es
Y tengo que consultar los dos. No es que sea el fin del mundo pero, ¿no sería todo más fácil en un solo sitio web?
Y, en lugar de mandarme de un portal a otro, ¿no sería más lógico que el trámite me informara directamente de cuáles son esos requisitos?
Y, una vez más, ¿es necesaria esa advertencia justo ahora, en vez de posponerla a cuando haya progresado más en el trámite digital?

After listening to @AuronMacintyre & @JoelWBerry on Timcast, the difference between "constitutionalist" conservatives and the new right really boils down to the fact that the new right understands the mechanisms of politics, whereas the constitutional conservatives do not 🧵
People like Joel Berry claim that there's a somewhat easy way back to a constitutional republic, but really their entire view of governance and politics are nothing more than carefully crafted propaganda pushed upon republicans in the 20th century.
Every time these debates happen, the constitutional conservative side always talks about people just finding faith, being in their Bibles, then a mass awakening will happen. Whereas the new right understands that you must actually take action to achieve your political goals.

There is a lot of confusion on what constitutes "the Epstein files." So let me explain. (Thread). First, there are the DOJ/FBI federal criminal case files. This is what Congress voted to release this past week. 1.
2. A small subset included with the DOJ files are the federal grand jury files. This is the evidence federal prosecutors present to a grand jury in order to get an indictment. It is a very small percentage of the files. (more)
3. The Oversight Committee Epstein files: these are they files that Congress obtain from Epstein's estate by issuing a subpoena. They include Epstein's calendars, emails and other documents that have been dripping out over they past few months. (more)

We're talking about industrial hemp here—cannabis varieties bred for fiber, seed, and soil building, not recreation.
These varieties contain no psychoactive compounds but pack incredible permaculture potential.

What makes hemp interesting for soil building?
Industrial hemp (cannabis varieties bred for fiber and seed) creates remarkable biomass in a single growing season.
Consider these characteristics:
• Can grow 6+ feet tall in one season
• Develops deep taproots that penetrate compacted soil
• Produces substantial organic matter for composting
• Naturally suppresses weeds through ground coverage
It's essentially a living soil amendment that works while it grows.
