All news media run by the Party must work to speak for the Party’s will and its propositions and protect the Party’s authority and unity

They should enhance their awareness to align their ideology, political thinking and deeds to those of the CPC Central Committee and help fashion the Party’s theories and policies into conscious action by the general public while providing spiritual enrichment to the people

Xi Jinping February 2016.

I think it's also a reference to the bavarian flag.

Hence why their logo is 3 tuning forks.

Human rights?

So for example, they could go after you in Russia for explaining why you decided not to have kids because of the environmental impact if it's implied you encourage others to do the same.

Mechanical Hand Testing (www.youtube.com)
 

Ian Davis has been working since he lost his fingers to design and build a mechanical hand. He's now looking for other amputees to help him test the design. It's a really cool project, I love following his progress!

Changing Models of Villagers on Bedrock (sh.itjust.works)
 

Is there a way to get villagers with separated arms on bedrock? Would I need to write my own addon? I don't see anything built for that currently.

My end goal would be to get villagers to look like dwarfs, like this resource pack.

TIL computers can sometimes grow crystals (upload.wikimedia.org)
 

Tin in solder or some other meals can form spiky crystals when under stress. These whiskers can form short circuits if not properly insulated or not alloyed with other metals.

Training reactor that you can see though is pretty neat! (youtu.be)
 

Apparently reddits nuclear subs are anti nuclear now, as they won't let this video be posted.

Tianlong 3 booster static fire test lifts off instead (youtu.be)
 

Scott Manley video, looks like the hold down claps may have ripped the bottom off the booster, allowing it to take off.

Solstice - 5 (youtu.be)
 

Stunning short film. Seems scarily plausible, we won't lose control of AI, the people in change just won't care enough to control it.

Another happy landing. I can't believe starship managed to land gently after burning half the flap off!

Just make sure to return them when you're done! Maybe even add a new one if you find one.

The one I used was very nice. Has a nice heft all the way down, and was very straight.

XiaoHao2 took these pics and videos from across the China boarder with a dgi drone in 2020. They uploaded just recently. Here's some more pics

Disable tracking on Chevy Bolt 2019 (sh.itjust.works)
 

OnStar reports location and speed data to the car manufacturer. Sometimes they will sell this data to insurance companies to raise your premium, as several news stores pointed out a few weeks ago. I couldn't really find an advantage to OnStar, (I have my phone to call emergency services) so I disabled it by pulling it's fuse.

For my 2019 bolt, it's f31 in the instrument panel fuse box, just down and to the left of the steering wheel. The fuse box cover comes off when you pull it hard from the bottom.

I was able to find which fuse went to OnStar in the owners manual and labeled on the inside of the fuse box cover. You should be able to find it for your model car there too if it uses OnStar.

I did have the casualty of my speaker for calls and texts. I'm not able to use it right now. I'll see if I can dig in and reconnect it somehow, but we'll see.

Who knows that other into they're snitching back to GM, or what they could do in the future, so I recommend disconnecting it. Good luck!
