Ultimamente ho raccontato storie di come viene giudicata la legittima difesa o presunta tale, negli USA. E di quanta gente è finita in prigione malgrado il tentativo di informare che non tutto è lecito come si crede.

Poco prima di mezzanotte del 27 aprile 2014, Markus Kaarma si accorse della presenza di un intruso nel suo garage.
Solo 10 giorni prima, era stato vittima di un furto con scasso
Qualcuno aveva rubato alcuni oggetti di valore dal suo garage e il colpevole era ancora a piede libero

Dopo il furto, Jeanette, la compagna di Kaarma, aveva installato un baby monitor video nel garage, nella speranza che, se qualcuno avesse tentato di rubare di nuovo, sarebbe stato colto sul fatto.
Il ladro che quella notte entrò nel suo garage si chiamava Diren Dede.

Worship during times of brokenness is precious to Allah, and it has come in the authentic hadith from Abu Hurairah (RA) that the Prophet ﷺ said:

Аплакванне — адзін са спосабаў праявы нашай здольнасці любіць. Мы прывязваемся да людзей, ідэй, жывёл і рэчаў, а значыць, робімся ўразлівымі да іх страты. Іншыя жывёлы таксама пакутуюць ад страты і па-рознаму смуткуюць, аднак чалавечае аплакванне — гэта спроба ператварыць страту ў адноўленае набыццё: ва ўяўленні, думках, эмоцыях і сімвалічным выяўленні.
Аплакванне робіць нас гістарычнымі істотамі: яно звязвае мінулае з сучаснасцю і дазваляе ўяўляць будучыню, не адварочваючыся ад перажытых страт.
Sparks — All That

Senior advisor to Anthony Fauci, David Morens used his personal email to discuss NIH-related matters and the origin of the Covid pandemic with funding recipients like the EcoHealth Alliance that sent money to Wuhan for risky virus research.
Morens is charged with conspiracy against the US; destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations; concealment, removal, or mutilation of records; and aiding and abetting.
From emails released via FOIA or subpoena, there are several co-conspirators and scientists who received communications from Morens' personal gmail, knowing he was attempting to evade FOIA.
"I forgot to say there is no worry about FOIAs. I can either send stuff to Tony on his private gmail, or hand it to him at work or at his house. He is too smart to let colleagues send him stuff that could cause trouble."
"The email somehow fell into the hands of the Congressman, probably via a FOIA of someone who didn't delete it, as I did... mine was erased long ago (I verified that today) and I feel pretty sure Tony's was too. The best way to avoid FOIA hassles is to delete all emails when you learn a subject is getting sensitive..."
"From Tony's numerous recent comments to me, and from what Francis has been vocal about over the past 5 days, they are trying to protect you [Peter Daszak, then president of EcoHealth Alliance], which also protects their own reputations"

1/ Does the Russian soldier in your life need something to entertain him? A Russian entrepreneur has come up with the perfect answer: a board game called Silapoly which features 'Uncle Vova', the Oreshnik missile, the FSB, and anything else needed to control Russia. ⬇️
2/ Silapoly is an adaptation of the classic board game Monopoly that relocates the action and game mechanics for a (satirical?) depiction of modern Russia. The player must "build an empire, manage money, and fight for power."
3/ According to the product description, the game "combines strategy, economic mechanics, politics, history, and the atmosphere of modern Russia". Like in Monopoly, players are dealt cards and purchase assets to gain the upper hand.

En 1974, unos obreros rumanos desenterraron junto al río Mures dos huesos de mastodonte. Pegada a ellos, había una pieza de aluminio, algo imposible, porque el aluminio no comenzó a producirse en el mundo hasta el siglo XIX. Lo llamaron el bloque de Aiud. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
Esta historia arranca cerca de Aiud, una ciudad del condado de Alba, en el centro de Rumanía. En la orilla del río Mures había una extracción industrial de grava, donde una excavadora sacaba arena y sedimentos del terreno a varios metros de profundidad.
Según los relatos del hallazgo, a unos diez metros aparecieron tres objetos juntos. Dos eran huesos fosilizados de gran tamaño, identificados como restos de un mastodonte, un pariente extinto de los elefantes. El tercero no encajaba en absoluto.

Por qué España se ha quedado sin ovejas
El censo ovino español ha pasado de casi 24 millones de cabezas en el año 2000 a 13,4 millones en 2024, un 44 % menos. La encuesta provisional del ministerio del noviembre pasado lo deja en poco más de 11 millones, con 2,3 millones de animales perdidos en un solo ejercicio. La producción de carne cae un 57 % desde 2000 y el número de explotaciones un 19 %, y aun así España sigue siendo el primer productor ovino de la Unión Europea, lo que nos da una idea de dónde veníamos. Estamos liquidando en una generación el sector que sostuvo la economía castellana durante cinco siglos.
Este sector llegó a ser un monopolio de Estado defendido con la pena de muerte. El Honrado Concejo de la Mesta lo fundó Alfonso X en 1273 y funcionó como un consorcio de intereses con poder propio, pues sus pastores no podían ser encarcelados por las deudas con sus amos, quedaban exentos del servicio militar, tenían licencia de armas por derecho y no estaban obligados a comparecer ante la justicia para no dejar solos a los rebaños, según recogió Julius Klein en el estudio clásico sobre la institución que os mencionaré al final. La lana salía por Santander y por Laredo hacia Inglaterra y Flandes, y se clasificaba en finas, que daban las merinas trashumantes, entrefinas, de las merinas estantes, y bastas. Sacar del reino una oveja merina viva estaba castigado con la muerte.
El nombre del animal lleva un siglo discutiéndose, pues durante mucho tiempo se hizo derivar de los benimerines, la dinastía beréber que habría traído los rebaños norteafricanos, aunque la filología tira más bien del 'maiorinus' latino, oficial encargado de inspeccionar pastos y ganados. A mi parecer esta segunda tiene más fuerza, porque el cargo está documentado en Castilla antes que la raza.
No obstante, hay que ser honrados con las proporciones, porque la trashumancia, que daba la lana fina, era la parte vistosa pero no la mayoritaria: el Catastro del Marqués de la Ensenada contó en 1750 unos 18,6 millones de cabezas en la Corona de Castilla, de las que apenas 3,3 millones trashumaban, un 18 % del total. El techo llegó en 1765, con cerca de 3.750.000 animales registrados por el Concejo, y desde ahí empezó a bajar.
El monopolio lo fueron regalando los propios reyes. (Hijo) ⬇️⬇️

Con los Borbones en el trono, la Corona empezó a usar los merinos del rebaño real como moneda diplomática. En 1723 salieron ovejas para Suecia; en 1765 embarcó en Cádiz rumbo a Hamburgo un lote de 92 carneros y 128 hembras con destino al Electorado de Sajonia, cuyo administrador era el príncipe Francisco Javier, primo de Carlos III; en 1775 fueron a Hungría y en 1786 a Prusia. Los sajones repitieron en 1778 con otros 100 carneros y 176 hembras, cruzaron los ejemplares de vellón más fino de las dos partidas y sacaron una lana que los ingleses bautizaron como 'electoral' y que en 1787 ya cotizaba a precios altísimos. Del reparto oficial quedó fuera justo el gran comprador y competidor de siempre, Inglaterra.
El caso francés lo pidió Luis XVI como favor excepcional a su pariente Carlos III. El rebaño hizo más de 2.000 kilómetros por tierra, con la travesía de los Pirineos navarros complicada por una nevada temprana, hasta llegar el 12 de octubre de 1786 a la granja de Rambouillet, donde se formó la variedad que acabó siendo la cumbre de la raza. La acción que tendría a la larga más repercusión vino después, con Carlos IV, que entregó a Guillermo V de Holanda dos carneros y cuatro ovejas de la Cabaña Real; como no prosperaban en aquel clima se mandaron a la colonia de El Cabo, y esos seis animales fueron los primeros merinos que salieron de Europa. De ahí arranca, por la vía de Australia, el merino que hoy manda en el mercado mundial de la fibra fina.
Lo que quedaba en pie se perdió en la guerra. Los ejércitos francés e inglés se llevaron rebaños enteros, y la Junta de Defensa, sin nada mejor que ofrecer al gobierno británico a cambio de su ayuda militar, terminó entregando cabañas completas porque ya no quedaba otra cosa que enajenar.
Que conste que el muerto no se lo cargo entero a los Borbones. La cabaña trashumante llevaba estancada desde mediados de siglo, y la investigación reciente apunta a la escasez de pastos como causa principal, con los pleitos por los pastizales extremeños de fondo. Los regalos aceleraron una caída que ya estaba arrancada.⬇️⬇️

La Mesta cayó con el liberalismo, por Real Orden de 31 de enero de 1836, y se convirtió en la Asociación General de Ganaderos del Reino. Las cañadas siguieron ahí sobre el papel mientras los labradores colindantes se las comían palmo a palmo, y aun así la red que dejó la trashumancia es algo totalmente impresionante: 125.000 kilómetros de cañadas, cordeles y veredas —los tres nombres van por anchura, noventa varas la cañada, que son unos setenta y cinco metros, cuarenta y cinco varas el cordel y veinticinco la vereda—, casi diez veces la red ferroviaria, ocupando 400.000 hectáreas, cerca del 1 % del territorio nacional. Sigue vigente y protegida por la Ley 3/1995 de Vías Pecuarias, y por eso los rebaños trashumantes todavía pueden cruzar la Castellana, que es tramo de cañada.
Lo que remató la trashumancia a pie fueron dos cosas de la misma época. La desamortización de Madoz sacó a subasta buena parte de los pastos comunales de los concejos, que eran la base sobre la que se sostenía el ganado estante y el descanso del trashumante y la cañada perdió su función principal con la implantación del transporte por ferrocarril.
Al desplome institucional del siglo XIX le siguió el del producto. El algodón desplazó a la lana en la industria textil y ya en el siglo XX la fibra sintética derivada del petróleo terminó por rematarla. La puntilla industrial, no obstante, es reciente y cosa nuestra. Entre 1990 y 2010 se desmontó en España la cadena entera, cerraron los lavaderos y la manufactura se marchó a Portugal, a Marruecos y a China. Hoy quedan dos o tres lavaderos operativos en toda España, y de las 23.168 toneladas de lana que se esquilan cada año solo se transforma dentro de nuestras fronteras el 1,7 %. El resto sale del país sin lavar siquiera.⬇️⬇️

Entre 1990 y 2010 se desmontó en España la cadena entera, cerraron los lavaderos y la manufactura se marchó a Portugal, a Marruecos y a China. Hoy quedan dos o tres lavaderos operativos en toda España, y de las 23.168 toneladas de lana que se esquilan cada año solo se transforma dentro de nuestras fronteras el 1,7 %. El resto sale del país sin lavar siquiera.⬇️⬇️

A guy's iPhone battery was dying by 2 PM every day.
He was about to spend $99 on a battery replacement. His phone was 14 months old. Battery health: 91%. That's not a worn-out battery that's a software problem.
His coworker a former Apple Genius who spent 4 years at the Genius Bar diagnosing battery complaints looked at his Settings for 60 seconds and said:
"Your battery isn't dying. Your settings are killing it. You have 47 apps refreshing in the background. Your screen brightness is at 100% indoors. Location Services is running on 39 apps you haven't opened in 6 months. The Always-On Display is bleeding power 24 hours a day. And you're charging the phone wrong which is why you're at 91% health after 14 months instead of 97%."
She changed 11 settings in 8 minutes.
His phone lasted until 11 PM that night. Same battery. Same hardware. Same iPhone. Different settings.
Here are 11 settings that drain your battery and destroy its long-term health and the exact fix for each one 🧵

First the 2 battery problems most people confuse.
The former Genius said 90% of battery complaints mix up two completely different problems:
Problem 1: Daily battery life. "My phone dies by 3 PM." This is a software and settings problem. Apps, brightness, background processes, and features draining the battery faster than necessary. Fixable in 8 minutes.
Problem 2: Long-term battery health. "My battery is at 84% after 2 years." This is a chemistry problem. Lithium-ion batteries degrade over time based on: charge cycles, heat exposure, and voltage stress (keeping the battery at 100% for extended periods). Manageable through charging habits and specific settings.
Most "battery" threads address one or the other. This thread addresses both the 7 settings that fix your daily battery life today, and the 4 settings that preserve your battery health for years.
"Fix the daily drain first. Then protect the long-term health. In that order. Most people do neither because they think the battery is broken. It almost never is."

Setting 1: Check Battery Usage find the app that's secretly draining you.
Settings → Battery → wait for the list to load → scroll down.
This screen shows every app's battery consumption over the last 24 hours and last 10 days. Each entry shows: percentage of battery used + screen time vs background activity.
The killer metric: background activity. If an app shows 45 minutes of "Background Activity" but 0 minutes of "Screen Time" that app is running behind the scenes without you using it. Draining battery silently.
Common offenders: Facebook (notorious for background drain). Instagram. Snapchat. News apps that refresh constantly. Weather apps that track your location 24/7. Shopping apps you opened once 3 months ago.
The former Genius checks this first on every device: "The 1 battery complaint I solved at the Genius Bar was 'my battery drains too fast.' The 1 cause: 3-5 apps running in the background consuming 30-40% of the daily battery. The fix: identify them on this screen and disable their background refresh. 60-second diagnosis. Instant improvement."
