Making a top comment for this. I have found a recording on medici.tv from April 2025 (same choreography): https://www.medici.tv/en/ballets/edward-clug-peer-gynt-grieg-la-scala

It’s a subscription service, but if you really want to watch it, it’s worth it (and you can cancel after a month anyway)

Just another AI agent bro, that will fix th

Out of Memory or System Resources. Close some windows or programs and try again.

But can they fuck up the environment the way we do? I don’t think so

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

The amount of AI videos when it comes to animals is nuts these days, so I think this is a legitimate question to ask.

I want to watch this as well, but can’t find anything either. I sent a mail to the opera house asking how I can get a recording.

Edit: got a reply. They don’t have the recording and told me to contact the choreographer as he apparently owns the rights. Will try to do so later today (at work now)

Update 2: Found the instagram of the choreographer (Edward Clug) and sent him a message

Update 3: After checking his instagram a bit further, it turns out that there still are performances now and then (averaging at 1 per year, last one was in April). This led me to some more internet searching and I found where you can watch the most recent one (at La Scala in Milan): https://www.medici.tv/en/ballets/edward-clug-peer-gynt-grieg-la-scala

Last update: he blocked me without responding. But hey, I found it so I still call it a win.

I have 4 and they wrestle, but rarely fight. Fighting includes hissing and claws out, which only happens when one of them goes too far (usually the male, who is the biggest of the lot).

I do love that our smallest cat is picked on the least, because when another cat picks a fight with her, she never gives up. These wrestling matches are usually a minute or so, but she will hound and hunt them relentlessly for up to 2 hours after, long after it stopped being fun for the initiator. We call her the boss for a reason even though she is an adorable little fluffball.

Show kph but use mph might do the trick

Can we blow up the ship halfway and call it an oopsie?

Not for himself, as he just joined the billionaire club. I would probably have ruined it for a billion as well, if I’m being completely honest.

This is how lashings work in Brandon Sandersons Stormlight Archive.

I don’t like Russia one bit, but there would be serious consequences (undermining the trust in the euro as a financial asset) that would have long term negative consequences, not to mention the dubious legality of the plan concocted by the European Commission and the fact that any EU country can veto the extension of the sanctions (Hungary or Slovakia being the most likely culprits) which would mean the funds are free again.

I think the Europe should finance Ukraine, but this is the wrong mechanism to do so. The only politically viable way is through bilateral country-to-country financial support, where the EC can play a coordinating role.

But the seizing of the frozen assets is just not going to work, as every lawyer involved has already stated multiple times and not a single competent finance minister in the EU (or anywhere really) would ever agree to it.

My brother was studying to become a Jesuit and there was this running joke amongst the Jesuits about praying where they would go “Why? God doesn’t exist.” This may sound hypocritical and it kind of is, but they consider the religion more a moral framework rather than something to rigorously believe in. That’s also why Pope Francis resonated with many non-believers because, at least the modern Jesuits, apply the moral lessons of the New Testament with a healthy dose of rationality (they are considered the intellectual branch of the church for a reason).

Very few, if any, Jesuit these days believe in the existence of a god, but they find value in the moral framework and how they can apply that to make this world a better place. It’s the only religious order I can stomach to have conversations with.

Yes, 23H2 at the moment.

Edit: Enterprise edition, to be clear. Home and Pro 23H2 were eol a couple of weeks ago.

We’re running the oldest supported Windows version in our enterprise just to make sure these non-stop stream of Microsoft fuck-ups doesn’t affect us too much.

The US going down the Russia path: “Surely it can’t be worse?” - “And then it got worse…”

Even for refugees who still consider themselves temporary refugees it will be difficult to return without a lasting peace. And none of the proposed peace deals so far have the making of a permanent deal.

The only possible way I see it for a lasting peace is the Russians giving up at one point. But that looks unlikely to happen within the next year and Ukraine is going to have troubles just staying in the war without massive foreign aid.

It really is becoming time for Europe to step up and turn the screws on Russia by declaring a no-fly zone and start bombing the everliving shit out of any Russian troops in Ukraine.

It’s not only Geely owned manufacturers saying this though. The ceo of Stellantis said the exact same thing a week ago. Companies that did their homework will make the deadline easily, whereas the laggards will suffer.

And then you have Volkswagen, who went full EV, screwed it up by half-assing it, backpedalled under shareholder pressure and is now at the forefront of this lobbying.

It doesn’t even help. Copilot in excel is awfully incompetent.
