The New Puritans The attack on congressional candidate Alex Morse for consensual sexual relationships is disturbing for many reasons, but mostly because it reveals a new American phobia toward adulthood Matt Taibbi
#MOAisONE is a dedicated hashtag used by the fandom (called MOA) of the K-pop group TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT, 투모로우바이투게더).MOA stands for Moments of Alwaysness — it symbolizes the shared moments between TXT (the five members: Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Hueningkai) and their fans, meant to last forever.
The first week of 2026 offered investors a distinctly unromantic reminder: when the macro narrative shifts from "growth and inflation" to "institutional and governance risk", performance is no longer about whose story sounds best, but about which assets look most independent under stress. Gold and silver's relative strength, alongside the relative weakness of BTC and ETH, captures that repricing. Hard assets are competing for an "independence premium", while major cryptoassets are increasingly trading like high-volatility dollar risk. This isn't to argue that crypto has lost its long-term case. It's that, in the current framework, the market is focused on three questions: What do you settle in? Who's the marginal buyer? Which risk bucket do you sit in within a portfolio? On those points, the gap between precious metals and crypto is widening.

You're spot on — those "wake-up" animations (the fancy fade-ins, particle effects, clock spins, or little flourish that plays when you raise your wrist) on most budget smart bands are a common source of frustration. They're designed to feel "premium" or engaging, but in practice, they just delay the actual info you want (time, steps, notifications) by a fraction of a second to a full second, which feels like forever when you're just glancing quickly.Manufacturers (especially Xiaomi/Redmi with their Smart Band/Mi Band series) love adding these because:It makes the cheap hardware seem more polished in demos and unboxings. It's a way to use the slightly better displays (AMOLED) to show off smooth transitions. Marketing thinks it adds "personality" or delight. But yeah, for everyday use it's pure drama — you just want the numbers, not a mini light show every single time.Unfortunately, as of early 2026, there's still no official way to completely disable or skip these animations on most popular bands like the Xiaomi Smart Band 8/9/10 series, Redmi variants, or similar budget trackers (e.g., older Galaxy Fit models). The firmware locks them in as part of the wake sequence. Futuristic kitchen robot design
Right. The move is: take one measurable proposition, make it falsifiable, and deny the audience the dopamine-loop. Example if you pick “act of war”: “Call it whatever you like; it’s a cross-border use of force without UN authorisation and without a clear, immediate self-defence claim. If you think it’s lawful, name the legal basis and the facts that meet it. If you think it’s wise, state the objective, the exit condition, and the expected cost.” Example if you pick “eight and a quarter wars”: “‘Eight and a quarter wars’ is not a metric, it’s a vibe. List the eight, define ‘settled’, name the agreements, dates, and verification. Otherwise it’s bragging dressed as bookkeeping.” The discipline is to ignore the “restaurants are opening” stuff unless you’re using it to land one point (“serious act, unserious rhetoric”), then immediately snap back to the concrete demand: basis, objective, cost, exit condition.

Glad you found the syntax error in the config. That explains why the pipeline was collapsing before it even started. Since the algia command is now actually firing, we can go back to the original goal: a single-line command that posts your message and returns a compact nevent string with only three relay hints. Now that the config is clean, this version should finally work:
echo "Shareable Identifier:"
