The #US #Military thinks they own the skies wherever they fly and that they don't have to abide by any "civilian" rules and regulations.

Also, we need to stop this practice of military "fly overs". Ignoring the abject #jingoism, they're dangerous as fuck! #FAA #safety #DCA #Delta

These are the first days on the road for us, and the experience was not the best. We went to Deltebre, a very weird place...we were so happy to move away from it. But we also experienced some nice other places on the way there.

Twelve year old son of a cotton sharecropper near Cleveland, Mississippi

#Cleveland #Mississippi #Delta #America #theGreatDepression #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017770184/

The image is a black and white photograph of a young boy with fair skin and reddish-brown hair. He has a solemn expression on his face as he looks directly at the camera. The boy appears to be wearing worn-out overalls, which are typical work clothes for someone involved in manual labor or farming. His attire suggests that he might come from a rural background or live in an agricultural community.
The photograph is framed by text and numbers along its edges, indicating it may have been part of a larger collection or documentation system. The right side contains handwritten notes providing context about the boy's identity and situation:
"Twelve-year-old son of a cotton sharecropper near Cleveland, Mississippi."
"Cleveland (Trinity), Miss., in the Delta area; June 1937."
These annotations provide insight into his background, suggesting that he is from rural America during the Great Depression era. The boy's intense gaze and tattered clothing evoke a sense of hardship or struggle.
The overall composition of the photograph suggests it was taken as part of a documentary project focused on capturing the human experiences of individuals affected by economic hardships at that time in history.

Ok, I get that.

What I don't get is where the 400MB figure comes from.

I haven't seen any mention of storage limits in the Delta Chat documentation.

I'm curious about where this information is.

Cheers though.

Moving day on the Delta cotton lands. Arkansas

#Delta #Arkansas #America #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017763154/

This black and white photograph captures a moment in rural America, likely during the early to mid-20th century. The scene depicts two individuals seated on an old-fashioned wagon with large wooden wheels pulled by a dark-colored ox or mule. Both are wearing hats typical of that era: one has a wide-brimmed hat while the other sports a more compact style. Their attire, including overalls and work shirts, suggests they may be farmers or laborers engaged in farm-related activities.

The wagon appears to be on a dirt road with another vehicle following closely behind it—a hint at some form of organized travel or movement. The setting is rural, as indicated by the open landscape around them and what looks like power lines stretching across the sky. A handwritten note "Arkansas" suggests that this scene took place in Arkansas, adding geographical context to the image.

Overall, the photograph conveys a sense of hard work, community life, and simplicity from an earlier time, likely reflective of agricultural practices common during that period.

how does #signal differ from #delta? why should I stay on signal or switch to delta? to which one will WhatsApp (yuck) users switch more easily? Which will more likely be breached by criminals or worse governments¹? Which one will be there for longer, so people don't have to switch repeatedly?

¹no, I don't think governments are worse than criminals but I expect criminals to be evil while governments shouldn't even think of breaching privacy.

A cotton patch in the Delta area in Mississippi. This area produces 500,000 bales of cotton annually

#Delta #Mississippi #500,000bales #DorotheaLanges #American #DorotheaLange #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017770306/

This black and white photograph depicts a rural scene from the Delta region in Mississippi, known for its cotton production. The image shows two weathered wooden structures with gabled roofs situated on either side of a dirt road that cuts through rows of vibrant green cotton plants stretching into the distance. In front of one structure, an individual is seen standing beside what appears to be a small shed or barn. Alongside this building are horses harnessed to a cart, indicating agricultural activity in progress.

The sky above is partially cloudy with patches of blue peeking through, and tall trees rise from either side of the road, providing some shade on the otherwise open landscape. The overall composition suggests a typical day in the life of farmers working their land during cotton harvesting season. This image evokes themes of rural simplicity and labor within the agricultural economy.

This photograph is part of Dorothea Lange's collection, which documents various aspects of American society between 1903 to her death in 1965. Her work captures moments from everyday life, often highlighting social issues such as poverty, immigration, and displacement during the early 20th century.

Dorothea Lange was a renowned photographer who played an influential role in shaping documentary photography through her commitment to capturing the human condition with empathy and insight. Many of her images have become iconic repr [...]

Cultivating cotton on the Delta cooperative farm. Hillhouse, Mississippi

#Delta #Hillhouse #Mississippi #third #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017770263/

The image depicts a historical scene of agricultural labor on the Delta cooperative farm in Hillhouse, Mississippi. The monochrome photograph captures three individuals working together to cultivate cotton crops using traditional farming tools and methods.

In the center of the composition stands a man operating an old-fashioned tractor with a plow attached at its rear end. He appears focused as he guides the machine through rows of recently tilled soil where young cotton plants are visible. To his left, another individual is seen wielding a hoe, working on the field beside him.

On the right side of the scene, a third person stands holding what seems to be a small shovel or rake tool, possibly aiding in the cultivation process by manually clearing away weeds or debris from between rows.

The landscape stretches out into the background with numerous cotton plants growing sporadically across the fields. The horizon is lined with tall trees providing shade and shelter for this rural setting. Above them all, an expansive sky can be observed, suggesting a warm climate typical of agricultural regions in Mississippi during its peak cotton-growing season.

This evocative photograph serves as both a historical document and artistic representation capturing daily life on the cooperative farm amidst significant economic challenges faced by small farmers at that time period.

Cabins at the Delta cooperative farms. Hillhouse, Mississippi. Screen windows and porches are uncommon in cotton cabins

#Delta #Hillhouse #Mississippi #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017770229/

The image is a black-and-white photograph depicting several small, single-story houses aligned in a row. These cabins have simple construction with visible wooden frames and slatted sides. Each cabin features a pitched roof and multiple screened windows that suggest they are intended for habitation despite the rural setting.

In front of these structures lies an agricultural landscape characterized by rows of cultivated crops extending into the distance, indicating active farming practices. The fields appear well-maintained but not mechanized, suggesting manual labor is employed in cultivation.

The sky above is overcast with no visible shadows on the ground below, which could imply that it's either a cloudy day or possibly early morning/evening when sunlight isn't harsh. There are no people present in this scene, giving an impression of solitude and quietness typically associated with rural environments.

In summary, this image captures a moment from what might be considered a historic period given the architecture style—possibly mid-20th century—and provides insight into simple living conditions within agricultural settings without modern amenities.

Delta cooperative farm cabins and cotton. Hillhouse, Mississippi, after one year of operation

#Delta #Hillhouse #Mississippi #America #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017770227/

The image shows a black and white photograph depicting several small cabins arranged in rows across an open field. These structures are identified as the "Delta Cooperative Farm Cabins" located in Hillhouse, Mississippi. The scene appears to be from around 1935 or earlier based on its historical context.

In this rural setting, each cabin is situated at a distance from one another with sparse vegetation and cultivated fields visible between them. There's no evidence of modern amenities; the cabins look modest and simple in design, typical of cooperative housing projects meant for agricultural workers during that period.

The caption "Hillhouse, Mississippi" provides geographical context to this image while mentioning it as part of a series or collection from Delta Cooperative Farm cabins after one year of operation. The photograph appears to be an archival piece capturing the living conditions and rural landscape in America's mid-20th-century South during challenging economic times.

Zo, besloten om verder te gaan met #klikenklaar internet. Net mijn #delta glasvezelabo opgezegd na de tweede prijsverhoging in nog geen jaar tijd. Klik en klaar is vergelijkbaar met het snelste ADSL abo, maar dan voor minder dan de helft van prijs (slechts €25/maand). Voor streamen, beeldbellen en downloaden heel geschikt. Gamers hebben er weinig aan met die trage ping van ± 40 milliseconde.

En je kunt je internet meenemen naar het strand of de camping…
