Benjamin Engbrocks#update Nach Verneinung und Nachfrage hat man sich auf Position „wir können das erst ab 10 Kindern anbieten“ zurückgezogen. 🤔
Wer bringt alles seine Kinder mit zur #QPL #WhatWorks Tagung vom @DLR_de am 09.-10. Dezember in #Osnabrück?

Leaders of New York City's three library systems have for months warned that if budget cuts instituted last year and funding reductions that together total nearly $60 million included in Mayor Eric Adams' executive budget are enacted, Saturday service across the five boroughs' 219 branches could be eliminated

Jakub RojekMiniony sezon Quake Pro League był ostatnim - nie będzie kolejnej edycji. Niekoniecznie oznacza to koniec e-sportu #QuakeChampions, ale nie da się ukryć, że raczej nie zmierza to w dobrym kierunku.
Szkoda, bo Quake, poza byciem legendą i klasykiem w świecie gier i e-sportu, jest po prostu diabelnie dynamiczny i widowiskowy. Ale możliwe, że jest też trudny w efektywnej grze, przez co nie przyciągał graczy i widzów. Nie wiem, nie znam się. Mimo że nie śledziłem specjalnie sceny, to mistrzostwa na Quakeconie lubiłem sobie obejrzeć.

NYC friends: The budget for libraries is looking bad so there are petitions for better funding. This is an area where petitions ACTUALLY WORK. A friend of a friend who works in NYC libraries says: we’re looking at hours cut, hiring freezes, etc if we can’t get our budget and the hiring freezes are terrifying because we’re [already] short twenty children’s librarians and 11 assistant managers This one is queens: https://queenslibrary.org/support/take-action (more links in next post)

"Already facing existing vacancies, Linda Johnson, president of the Brooklyn Public Library, said the system will be forced to slash wages and salaries, which will in turn decrease the number of hours opened and programs they can offer."
