IV #Cavalry Regiment of “the Great Prince Konstantin Konstantinovic“ returned from the #Balkan Wars to #Belgrade#railway station at four o`clock in the afternoon on the 3rd August 1913, where it was welcomed and greeted by a great number of Belgrade citizens.The regiment then went to the camp in Banjica to join the troops which paraded through the capital city, particularly ready for the official reception of the #Serbian victors on the 11th August 1913.
Can anyone help me find a novel I enjoyed years ago, set in a village on the rocky Cornish coast?
The main character had come to live there and finds himself drawn quietly into the community. He owns a small boat, moored on a river that opens into a bay which is guarded at the sea-edge by dangerous rocks where ships have been lost, and where one historical tragedy in particular is scored into local memory. Eventually, there's the need for a rescue to be attempted.
UPDATE: NY Governor Kathy Hochul said on CNN last night that she is considering a ban on masks.
This is absolutely shameful! New York has suffered so much from COVID, and COVID is not over. We should be normalizing and depoliticizing masks, not banning them.
Greetings Flamboyant Flamingos (I'm running out of nouns and adjectives starting with F) of the Fediverse, it's the 5th day of the #SteamNextFest , and for me, unfortunately, the last, weekend duty calls, and I won't be able to give proper time to any other demo, so consider this last batch of impressions as my farewell to you all, until the next time
Procedurally generated FPS, from the creators of Void Bastards
The neon/cowboy/scifi setting works, the shooting is way slower paced than I imagined, the unique abilities for the characters are interesting, and the fact that you're constantly chased and need to pick your battles carefully gives a nice tension to the whole.
The demo definitely left me wanting to know more about this project, I'll take a good look at it in the months before its release
I'm a reporter looking to interview freelancers who have seen demand for their work go down -- or shift -- in the wake of ChatGPT and all the AI image generators.
This is for a story about how freelancers, specifically, have seen demand for their labor change as use of AI has spread.
We're both getting on in years. She's older than me and she's worried that if she goes before me (not imminently.. 20 to 30 years at least I hope) I'll be on my own without friends.
I keep telling there's a difference between being lonely or being alone.
I don't really have a social life outside of my wife and her friends (and I consider them HER friends rather than mine) but that's fine for me #autistic#ActuallyAutistic
I love my alone time, and I would feel very much like you are if someone kept emphasizing to me that I need to go make friends.
I don't know how I would feel being alone for an extended period. I've been alone for 2-3 weeks and not felt particularly lonely within that time period - but I also knew my wife was coming back.
My very small social network (2-3 close friends) is almost exclusively online. When I don't talk to those people regularly, I feel lonely. That makes me think that socializing online is enough to fend off the loneliness, but I'm not entirely sure.
Honestly - you know yourself better than anyone else. If you've given it some thought and concluded that it's not important to you, and you don't feel like you're missing anything, that's perfectly okay and valid.

I am by nature very solitary. Always lived alone and very happily. The lockdowns for me were a dream and heaven
However, as I get older and with only a couple of nieces left to call my family and virtually no support network I am conscious I may have to change my ways somewhat and begin to work on that a little.
Just not entirely sure how yet.
Greetings fiery flames of the Fediverse, it's the 4th day of the #SteamNextFest , we are reaching the sunset of this event, so it is important more than ever to experience and share your curiosities before they're gone ... FOREVER!
(and by forever meaning until the successive fest)
Pipsqueak looks interesting! I don’t know how I missed it when browsing. If you like that GBA style, also check out the demo for Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo.
This one caught my eye because of the art (same artist as Braid) but the everything about this game is charming …steampowered.com/…/Arranger_A_RolePuzzling_Adven…Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure follows the story of Jemma, a small-town misfit on a journey of self-discovery. Venturing out beyond her stiflingly cozy confines, she finds an inspiring world - but also one ruled by fear, and a strange, immovable ‘static’ force. Can she disrupt a culture of stagnation, and find a place to fit into it?
This one I played because it’s by Game Maker’s Toolkit from YouTube so was keen to see what he’d built. Also enjoyed this one and it has a cute and polished presentation style. store.steampowered.com/app/…/Mind_Over_Magnet/Mind Over Magnet: Escape a dangerous factory using the power of magnetism. You must team up with three different magnet friends and use their unique abilities to solve more than 60 tricky single-screen puzzles.
