Shopping for a vise (vice) for the workshop. This rotating one seems like a good idea and not much more expensive.

Any experience with them or the brand in general? The worry, apart from being crap, is of course that it rotates when not desired.

And is 10cm enough? I do have an old massiv drill press vise still in the village that opens much wider, I'm planning on bringing that over as well for the rare "open wide" job.

Don't get me wrong it's really fecking important to report what's going on in #Iran and cover #IranProtests, but as a #US-bound camera crew they stick out like a Pantomimé in Mogadishu...

  • Their chances would've been way better getting in contact with locals remotely and going out of their way to not request or collect any #PII whatsoever in order to not endanger anyone.

Similar to how one can't just interview people on the streets of #Pyongyang, everyone in #Tehran is rightfully afraid of repression...

She can be glad she just got booted out of #Iran and not given a "non-consensual tour of #Evrin from the inside"...

  • Seriously, Iran is one of those places where I'd certainly not go in person, and I'm a heterocisbinary dude who with a bit of tan and clothing would likely be able to pass as a local...

Cuz #HostageDiplomacy is something #Tehran is proficient in...

www.ardmediathek.deDie VICE-Story - Gosse. Gonzo. Größenwahn. Staffel 1 der Serie - jetzt streamen!VICE kam, sah und sprengte – journalistische Gepflogenheiten, moralische Grenzen, alles bisher Gesehene. Was als Hirngespinst dreier Arbeitsloser in Montreal begann, wuchs um die Jahrtausendwende zum weltweiten Medienimperium. Auch in Berlin gab es eine Redaktion, bis im Zuge der globalen VICE-Insolvenz 2024 die Lichter dort ausgingen. Mit der rastlosen Suche nach spektakulären und bizarren Storys machte VICE – zunächst als Printmagazin, dann als Videopublisher – einen neuen, ungeschönten Journalismus populär: Gonzo. Es ging fast immer um Drogen, Kriminalität, Sex, Style, Schönes und Hässliches, Abseitiges und Absurdes. Man besuchte Diktatoren in Asien und IS-Terrorkämpfer und ging mit Mordverdächtigen auf die Flucht durch Mittelamerika. Dafür wurde VICE von der Leserschaft und zahlungskräftigen Werbekunden gefeiert. VICE feierte ohnehin pausenlos. Der Lifestyle bei VICE stand den kruden Storys in nichts nach: Stress und Star-Allüren, Druck und Drogen. Bis eine sich wandelnde Medienlandschaft, die internen Machtstrukturen und individuelle Hybris dem überlaut zelebrierten Hedonismus den Stecker zogen. Die VICE-Story beleuchtet den Aufstieg, Erfolg und Absturz dieses schillernden Popkultur- und Medienphänomens in 3 x 30 Minuten und zeigt Interviews mit den Macherinnen und Machern von damals aus Deutschland, den USA und UK. Darunter sind Thilo Mischke (heute Pro7), Manuel Möglich (ehem. ZDFneo), Martina Kix (Spiegel) und Gavin McInnes, der umstrittene Gründer von VICE und den 'Proud Boys'. Dazu kommt ungesehenes Archivmaterial.

Garota Sombria Caminha Pela Noite (2014) #tercinema

Um filme intitulado "o primeiro western Iraniano de Vampiros", dirigido por uma mulher, sobre uma garota vampira? Sim, por favor.

A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014, EUA. 100min. Drama, Terror. :class16: Direção Ami Lily Amirpour)

📰 Coisas estranhas acontecem em Bad City. Uma cidade iraniana fantasma, lar de prostitutas, viciados, cafetões e outras almas sórdidas. Um reduto de depravação e falta de esperança, onde uma vampira solitária persegue os habitantes mais repugnantes. Mas quando um garoto conhece uma garota, uma história de amor incomum começa a florescer…vermelha como o sangue.

Of course, the Republicans will go into culture-war overdrive.

They will say that as a Californian, Kamala Harris is too #liberal.
They will say that as a former prosecutor, Harris is too #conservative.
They will say that she is too #female and too #Black.
(Well, they won’t say those last two out loud, but get ready for a fusillade of dog whistles that will be amped up to the point that they could shatter granite.)

Indeed, the MAGA Republicans are already griping about a Democratic Party “coup,” as if they have serious concerns about democracy in any political party, including their own.

But Biden’s decision reflected a determination to put the fate of his country ahead of his personal vanity,
a choice Trump is inherently incapable of making.

After today the difference between the Democrats and the Republicans could not be clearer.

Biden faces challenges of age that are not going to get any easier. His decision to make way for a younger candidate reaffirmed that his party is not about one man.

Trump, meanwhile, continues to bellow #gibberish at his rallies,
raving like the emotionally unstable, would-be #dictator that he is.

Even after Trump #insulted America’s #veterans and the nation’s war dead,

even after he was found liable for #sexual #abuse,

even after he racked up 34 #felony #convictions,

almost no elected officials in his party called for him to leave the ticket.

(As usual, Mitt Romney was seated at a table for one.)

Yet millions of Americans, sadly, have come to regard Trump’s pestilential character as merely a curious facet of an otherwise normal candidate.

Now that Biden is stepping down, all the false equivalency can end.

Biden is a good man, and he’s been a good and consequential president with a first-term record most of his predecessors would envy.

He is capable of serving out his term and should do so.
(The calls from Republicans today that he should now resign, coming from opportunistic hypocrites such as Elise Stefanik, are as meaningless as they are predictable.)

Trump was a disaster, an incompetent and ignorant president whose selfish decisions,
especially about COVID-19,
likely cost many thousands of Americans their lives.

🔸Biden’s decision is now also a challenge to every voter in the pro-democracy coalition to live by their words.

🔸For two years, many Americans lamented the choice between the aging Biden and the dissolute, unbalanced Trump.

🔸Their wish has been granted:
They will now likely have a choice between
a #shouty, 78-year-old habitual #liar
whose life is a record of shame and failure

and a 59-year-old woman who has served #honorably as a big-state attorney general,
a #senator,
and the #vice #president of the United States.
