@luusssso Indeed. The op art wasn’t only for the logo and print material, it was in the hostess’ uniform, the metro station signages, urban furniture. Just like an ecosystem. Also, Barcelona ‘92 had pretty good design guidelines, based on Mirö, Gaudi and Tapies.

Still think the ‘68 Mexico Olympics is the absolute best sports event branding we’ve ever seen

@KromicB La primera temporada que era serializada es la mejor que alguna vez hizo Filmation. La segunda fue una porquería, con un dragón sirviendo de comic-relief y Flash dando sus moralejas, al estilo de las demás series de Filmation.

La recordada productora de animación Filmation no se quedó en la siempre referenciada 'He-Man and the Masters of the Universe', otro de sus magníficos ejemplos de series míticas que nos acompañaron en la niñez es su icónica adaptación de 'FLASH GORDON':

@one_miloo That, or just use damn plain bricks.

How China’s smart glass instantly switches from clear to opaque in public toilets is honestly futuristic.

@MarsLPadNine @WorldlyHQ Exactly my thoughts. A heavy rain and that glued-tube is going to leak water all around it.

@WorldlyHQ It will leak inside the wall, rest is just bs.

Plumbing trick

@adara67abramov1 @FranciscoAlva90 También tuvo lo suyo, como facilitar el asesinato de Trosky o el implantar el sistema magisterial socialista, que nos ha dejado linduras como la CNTE y las normales rurales, cunas de guerrilleros.

@FranciscoAlva90 Cardenas si fue decente no se junta con esas ratas.

La derecha nunca van a digerir que AMLO les quitó sus privilegios. Así, como en su momento atacaron a Juárez y a Cárdenas. Hoy lo hacen con López Obrador.

@SocialDmocrata_ @JavierVillamor Cómo? No que habían llegado los españoles y habían destruido todas las construcciones prehispánicas? Supongo que debe ser la única que queda!

@JavierVillamor Es que esta belleza no tiene comparación con esos templos católicos

Imagina ser de Méjico, ver esto y pensar que eras una colonia.

@BowesChay As a father, whenever your kids are fighting, the first question you ask them is “who started the fight?”. The same here: who started the war? Suck it up.

Foreign journalists report from the rubble of the Lugansk dorm where Ukrainian drones murdered 21 students Kiev is a terrorist regime.

@abobarman No y no quiero ser cabalístico, pero, durante el tiempo que estuvo el logo anterior (1986-2021) México tuvo sus mejores participaciones en los mundiales. En el primer mundial que usaron el nuevo logo, de nuevo eliminados en fase de grupos.

Todos saben por qué se cambió el logo, no?

@TheDandyGoblin @VoicesofWW2 Read it again. This time make an effort to comprehende it

@VoicesofWW2 So the war ended in 1940 then. Okay.

On the same day Guderian's tanks raced for the Channel, a group of mathematicians in a country house in Buckinghamshire quietly read the German air force's mail for the first time. May 22, 1940. The breakthrough is not announced. There is no celebration. There is no champagne. The codebreakers at Bletchley Park have just cracked the daily key for the Luftwaffe Enigma cipher, the Red key, and they are going to spend the next five years pretending it never happened. The story of how they did it has been told in books and films, but the part that often gets missed is how impossibly small the team was. The original Hut 6, where army and air force ciphers were broken, had perhaps fifteen people working in it in May 1940. Alan Turing was in the next building working on naval Enigma, which was harder. The early bombe, the electromechanical device that did most of the actual cipher work, had been operational for two months. What broke the Red key was not the bombe alone. It was a German operational mistake. Luftwaffe radio operators were lazy. They reused message indicators. They sent stereotyped weather reports at the same time every morning from the same stations. They began messages with the same German military boilerplate, "An den Gruppenkommandeur," addressed to the group commander, which gave the codebreakers a crib, a piece of known plaintext to test settings against. Gordon Welchman, who ran Hut 6, later wrote that the Luftwaffe was sloppy in a way the Kriegsmarine never was. The navy treated its codes like state secrets. The air force treated them like office memos. Once the Red key was broken, it stayed broken for the rest of the war. Every day, the Germans rotated to new settings. Every day, by lunchtime, the Hut 6 team had them. By 1943, the Bletchley operation was reading roughly four thousand German messages a day. They knew where Rommel's supply convoys were leaving from. They knew when U-boat wolf packs were being deployed. They knew, before the Battle of Britain even started, the structure and call signs of every Luftwaffe unit being assembled across the Channel. The information was so sensitive that it was given its own classification, higher than Top Secret. It was called Ultra. Roughly thirty people in the entire British government were cleared to know it existed. Churchill called the Bletchley staff "the geese that laid the golden eggs and never cackled." The discipline around Ultra was almost paranoid. When the British wanted to act on it, they had to invent a cover story. If Ultra revealed that an Italian convoy was leaving North Africa on a particular night, the Royal Navy would first send a reconnaissance plane to "spot" the convoy, then attack it, so that the Germans would conclude the source was aerial reconnaissance rather than broken codes. The cover held. The Germans never figured it out. They investigated leaks repeatedly throughout the war and concluded each time that Enigma was unbreakable. They were so confident in the cipher that they kept using it until May 1945. After the war, the British government classified the Bletchley operation for thirty years. The codebreakers went home and were not allowed to tell their families what they had done. Some of them died in the 1950s and 1960s with their work still secret. Their wives and husbands found out, sometimes for the first time, when the classification lifted in 1974. Historians who have tried to estimate the impact of Ultra usually conclude it shortened the war by between two and four years. That is somewhere between ten and twenty million people who did not die because fifteen people in a hut in Buckinghamshire were better at mathematics than the German military thought possible. May 22, 1940. The mathematicians won the day. The headlines, naturally, went to the tanks.

@RetroMoviesDB @ralphbakshi Uh… sorry, what? Can you repeat that? I’ve seen your post several times and still can’t read it.

Rotoscope is underappreciated as it blends live-action realism with animation, yet is dismissed as mere tracing. In Fire and Ice (1983), Bakshi’s technique creates fluid, hypnotic Frazetta-style fantasy that deserves far more recognition.

@Kevin_Ortega02 @InvictosSomos O sea, el campeón?

@InvictosSomos Inglaterra era la favorita ERA... Pudo ser el City del mundial y ahora va ser el Arsenal del mundial.

¡¡LOS JUGADORES QUE TUCHEL DEJÓ FUERA DE LA LISTA DE INGLATERRA PARA EL MUNDIAL 2026!! Algunos de los futbolistas que Tuchel dejó sin Mundial: ✘ Phil Foden. ✘ Cole Palmer. ✘ Trent Alexander-Arnold. ✘ Harry Maguire. ✘ Morgan Gibbs-White. ✘ Adam Wharton. ✘ Jarrod Bowen. ✘ Levi Colwill. ✘ Luke Shaw. ✘ Fikayo Tomori. ✘ Myles Lewis-Skelly. TODOS ELLOS VERÁN EL MUNDIAL POR TV.

@Julrog560576 @manuel_alamilla Ni tanto, este modelo más bien era popular entre los veladores y guardias de edificios.

@manuel_alamilla No. pero estaba práctica en los tiempos de no celular imagino que sería traer como un iphone 50000 😁

¿Cuántos vieron un mundial en una de estás? Tuvieron una... 👇👇👇

@Kristinartz My wife

DOES ANYONE HERE HAVE SOMETHING IN THEIR HOUSE THAT'S OVER 40 YEARS OLD..

@vijayprashad @DiazCanelB @manolo_realengo @NNOCuba @PCCSecMinrex @EmilioLozadaG @DvidTwit Je sais que vous défendez une position politique, mais la dictature inhumaine qui sévit actuellement à Cuba doit céder la place à la démocratie. Raul Castro n’est pas un héros.

Cuba is not a menace to the world. The United States is a menace to the world. The world stands with Raúl Castro, hero of the Cuban Revolution. The world turns its back on Donald Trump, clown of human destruction.

@PunchlineBerlin @VoicesofWW2 Nah, that came later, in 1944. Czhechoslovakia, on the other hand, was betrayed by France and the UK in 1938.

@Mklvgnk @VoicesofWW2 Yeah, maybe if the british (and french) had not betrayed Poland, nothing of this had happened.

May 18, 1940. Antwerp falls. Europe's second largest port, taken in a day. Eight days earlier, Britain had been at war with Germany for eight months and seen almost no fighting. They called it the Phoney War. In the next eight days the entire British Expeditionary Force would be running for the beaches at Dunkirk. Belgium had spent a decade building the Albert Canal defense line, anchored by Fort Eben-Emael, the largest fortress in the world. The Germans bypassed it on day one by landing 78 paratroopers on the roof in gliders. The fort surrendered in 24 hours. The road to Antwerp was open. Blitzkrieg was not a tactic. It was a speed. France, with the largest army in Western Europe, surrendered five weeks later.

@spedroza_12 @IzqNoticiasMx Para protegerse de pequeños zares como Putin.

@IzqNoticiasMx ¿Para qué los países europeos quieren un ejército en común si sus nacionales buscan las paz en el mundo? No lo necesitan.

¡NO HAY SOBERANÍA! El presidente del Comité Militar de la OTAN, el almirante italiano Giuseppe Cavo Dragone, declaró con una sinceridad brutal que la idea de crear un Ejército europeo es un completo “sinsentido”, dejando al desnudo que Europa no tiene ni tendrá soberanía militar real. Traducción clara: todo está subordinado a la OTAN y, por tanto, a Estados Unidos.

@DolorDeOjos79 @neolatyno Lee nuevamente y despacio el post original. Ya? Dice: “last century” -siglo pasado- en castellano. Argentina dejó de ser parte de España en el S XIX. Tu comentario viene tan al caso como si hubieses puesto: “Hoy Pep Guardiola se despide del City”.

@neolatyno Cuando España conquisto America, Italia no existia, y los reinos de napoles y sicilia eran tambien España.

So many Italians moved to Argentina during last century, that they made the local dialect sound just like Italian. If you don’t know Spanish, you will think these pibes are speaking Italian. But accent is not all, vocabulary was enriched as well: for instance pibe, kid, comes from Italian pivello, freshman.

I can bet my kidney that Arsenal won’t win the EPL trophy. Crystal Palace will humble them. Pep will win his last league title this Sunday before he says goodbye to City fans. Bookmark this!!

We did it, together.
