Schade. Ich hätte mich auch gefreut. Schade, dass solche Spiele oft vom Schiedsrichter mit entschieden werden…

Dogs support our emotional well-being in a range of ways, and we tend to assume our attention or treats are reward enough for them. A new study of therapy dogs reveals that it's not that simple. psychologytoday.com/us/blog/canine…

Low-carbon electricity sources grew faster than demand in 2025, pushing fossil fuels into decline— Solar and wind energy have grown quickly in recent years, but global electricity demand has grown faster. So while their share of electricity generation kept rising, it wasn't enough to push fossil fuels into absolute decline. But in 2025, that changed. According to Ember's Global Electricity Review, low-carbon electricity sources grew faster than demand, pushing some fossil fuels out of the mix. Global electricity generation increased by around 850 terawatt-hours (TWh) from 2024 to 2025. As you can see in the chart, solar and wind accounted for nearly all of this growth. While the world still burned slightly more gas, this was more than offset by a decline in coal and oil. To reduce carbon emissions, fossil fuel use needs to keep falling in absolute terms — not just in the power sector but also in other energy and industrial sectors.

Only when you understand the pieces does this chess set truly become interesting. Designed in 1923 at the #Bauhaus in Weimar by Josef Hartwig, each piece expresses its movement through its form. The knight reflects its L-shaped move, the bishop follows a diagonal logic, and the rook remains clear and direct. Even the king and queen are reduced to their function. What emerges is not a decorative #chess set, but a system in which every form has meaning. That is precisely why this chess set is being rediscovered today.
