Fâzıl was born in Acre into an Arab family originally of Medina. He spent his early years in Safed in Ottoman Palestine. His grandfather Zahir al-Umar and father Ali Tâhir were both executed (in 1775 and 1776, respectively) for participating in a rebellion. After his father's death, Fâzıl moved to Istanbul. There, he was admitted to the Enderun palace school (taking the name Enderuni or Enderûnlu), but was expelled in 1783 as a result of his love affairs with other men there.
In 1799 he was exiled to Rhodes because of his satirical writings and was only allowed to return to Istanbul after becoming blind. He spent the rest of his life there, ill and bedridden. He is buried in a tomb in Eyüp.
p=0.149 had me lol
The Houston Museum of Natural Science is a fantastic museum and I love visiting, but the entire top floor is basically propaganda for oil companies who made big donations. It's under the guise of teaching about petroleum engineering, but it's just so blatant and gross. If you go (which I highly recommend), skip the top floor
ICE is raiding all over the country. Take a look at San Antonio, for example. The Trump Admin is loudest though about blue states, and you seem to be easily swayed by propaganda, so makes sense all you can hear is what Trump talks about
I think crack users don't bother with hallucinogens because they're looking for high impact dopamine hits, not a lengthy psychedelic experience. I don't think vice versa is true, people who use psychedelics aren't necessarily avoiding cocaine, but they're probably using higher quality cocaine rather than crack
Musk has staked Tesla’s future on self-driving vehicles he has promised for a decade but hasn’t delivered, making Austin's robotaxi launch closely watched as a potential milestone. Some analysts and investors attribute the majority of Tesla’s stock market value to hopes for robotaxis and humanoid robots it has yet to deliver.
We've had Waymo and Zoox operating in town for years. Waymo started road testing here almost 10 years ago now. Tesla is so far behind on this it's not even funny. I expect their cars to be subject to vandalism, also.
Edit to add: All they're saying they don't want released are deployment patterns, like how many cars, where, and when. Whatever, that info is basically useless anyway. That they're fighting so hard to conceal useless info demonstrates they already lack confidence in their service
Crack cocaine has always been a poor man's drug. It's highly adulterated and thus much cheaper
But none of us knows anything about the details or merits of that case, so...
Are you ok?
This image of shadows on the rings and others like it (see PIA11656 and PIA11655) are only possible around the time of Saturn's equinox which occurs every half-Saturn-year (equivalent to about 15 Earth years). The illumination geometry that accompanies equinox lowers the sun's angle to the ringplane and causes out-of-plane structures to cast long shadows across the rings.
Super cool to read about this. Thanks for sharing
These terms can describe any molecule, btw, doesn't have to contain carbon
