@th there’s a church in Leiden where they ran out of stonework budget and finished it with a wooden tower, to be replaced at earliest convenience.
it’s been hundreds of years and it’s still wood.
@0xabad1dea @th When people say "nothing is as permanent as a temporary solution", they really mean it!

You might think your software project is going slow, but for comparison the masonry work was finished circa 1300 and the iron work completed around five hundred years later.
@th Thank you for sharing! The interior of Salisbury Cathedral tower still has the wooden scaffolding they put up 800 years ago. Incredible to see the next stage - I wonder if iron was ever really considered for Salisbury.
(To replace the aircraft warning lights or the anemometer at the top, someone has to climb this structure until it’s too narrow for a human to fit and then go outside. https://youtu.be/kzi_M1dzxYQ?si=_HY0Tk2LaheKM_t2 I’m lying down and my knees have gone!)

@0xabad1dea @th The cathedral in Malaga, Spain, which I have visited a month ago, was built in 1528-1782 period and left without roof. Only now they started building the roof to prevent leaks through the ceiling vaults: https://www.surinenglish.com/malaga/malaga-city/this-how-the-roof-malaga-cathedral-growing-20250211080830-nt.html

Asini e umani: un sardo sfida Trump per…
@anarchia
… il Nobel della pace 2026. La “bottega” ringrazia Ignazio Sanna per questo scoop. Un evento imprevisto potrebbe impedire l’assegnazione del Nobel per la pace 2026 a Donald Trump. Infatti, il fulgido astro del principale pretendente pare improvvisamente oscurato https://www.rivoluzioneanarchica.it/asini-e-umani-un-sardo-sfida-trump-per/

@Khrys @thedarktangent what the actual fuck, you’re reposting and spreading an article that targets an open source maintainer by insulting him and making his picture into a wanted poster? Seriously?
