You can simplify your life by including external packages in your app, which frees you up to concentrate on its essential features. However, occasionally, you could encounter a problem asking you to raise the Android minSdkVersion when you add the packages. This occurs because projects produced both before and after the Flutter 2.8 release require a higher version of the Android SDK from the plugin.Adding external packages facilitates the completion of your app’s difficult functionality. You might occasionally run into a problem with “flutter.minsdkversion” while adding external packages, which will prompt you to increase the minSdkVersion. This occurred as a result of the plugin requiring a higher version of the Android SDK for the project.
Learn step-by-step methods to change Android minSdkVersion in Flutter. Update your build.gradle settings to ensure app compatibility and meet modern Android requirements.

This is important because it allows one to communicate with the Antinet, transforming it into a communication experience with a second mind, a doppelgänger, or a ghost in a box, as Luhmann called it. (5)5 This is the entity Luhmann referred to when he titled his paper, Communicating with Noteboxes.
El comentario a una anotación continente habla de Monos de Markov, en el sentido de atribuirle personalidad y vida a algo inanimado, al hablar con él (tanto como se habla con un Tarot u otro juego interpretativo/narrativo).

Theory of Ontological Consciousness Project Description This interdisciplinary essay explores a forgotten hypothesis at the intersection of physics, philosophy, and fiction: that consciousness is not a byproduct of matter, but its ontological foundation. Tracing this idea from Heraclitus and Plato to Schrödinger and Penrose, the article integrates metaphysical traditions with quantum models and critiques of materialist reductionism. It introduces the Theory of Ontological Consciousness (TOC) — a literary-philosophical framework proposing ψ̂–Φ interactions as the generative basis of spacetime and form. The essay also reinterprets empirical anomalies, such as those documented by the Global Consciousness Project, as potential signatures of an underlying field of universal consciousness.

Plastic is an extensively utilized material that finds its application in various sectors. Given its high demand, plastic masterbatch manufacturers must source top-quality organic pigments for colouring these masterbatches. The plastic particles thus obtained are employed in creating diverse plastic products. It is, therefore, critical to maintaining consistency in colour even after moulding them into different shapes. Hence, it becomes crucial to procure pigments from trusted suppliers. Plastic consumers have the option of purchasing from retailers or reputed plastic pigment manufacturers.

Seit 1961 sind 60 % der globalen Regionen betroffen, besonders in Ostasien und Südamerika. Die Studie warnt vor gesundheitlichen Risiken und fordert dringende Emissionsreduktionen.

Ende April 2025 erreichten die Temperaturen in Asien und im Nahen Osten neue Rekorde: 49 °C im Kuwait, 48 °C in Pakistan und 47,6 °C in Saudi-Arabien. Diese Hitzewelle ist beispiellos in Intensität, Dauer und Ausdehnung, warnen Klimatologen. Die Anomalien erreichten bis zu +12 °C in Afghanistan, Indien und Pakistan. Nachts blieben die Temperaturen oft über 30 °C, was die Bevölkerung zusätzlich belastet.

Der Artikel diskutiert die Nutzung von BECCS (Bioenergie mit CO₂-Abscheidung und -Speicherung) zur Reduktion von CO₂-Emissionen. BECCS könnte negative Emissionen erzielen, indem CO₂ aus der Verbrennung von Biomasse abgeschieden und gespeichert wird. Dies könnte neue Geschäftsmodelle ermöglichen und Kostenvorteile bei der Energieerzeugung bringen.
Kritiker, die sich auf mehrere hier verlinkte Studien zur Holzwirtschaft und zur ökologischen Situation in Deutschland berufen, warnen jedoch, dass BECCS nicht als Ersatz für Emissionsreduktionen dienen sollte. Ohne klare politische Leitplanken könnten schädliche Nebeneffekte wie Waldzerstörung und ineffiziente Energienutzung auftreten. Die energetische Effizienz von Anlagen sinkt durch die CO₂-Abscheidung, was zu höherem Brennstoffverbrauch führt. Zudem könnte der Anreiz zur Emissionsvermeidung sinken, wenn Unternehmen auf CO₂-Zertifikate setzen. Eine starke Nachfrage nach Holzbiomasse könnte Waldökosysteme weiter belasten und die Entwicklung einer nachhaltigen Bioökonomie behindern.

Drei führende Klimawissenschaftler kritisieren die Illusion der "Net Zero-Politiken", die darauf setzen, das 1,5°-Ziel durch die Entfernung von CO2 aus der Atmosphäre zu erreichen. Sie werfen vielen ihrer KollegInnen vor, unrealistischen Konzepten nicht offen entgegenzutreten, um ihren politischen Einfluss nicht zu verlieren. Sie kritisieren auch die bisherigen Integrated Assessment Models des Weltklimarats, die von der Voraussetzung ausgehen würde, die Klimakatastrophe ließe sich mit marktwirtschaftlichen Mitteln beheben und fordern auf, deutlich zu sagen, dass sich eine Erhitzung der Erde auf 3 und mehr Grad nicht durch kleine Schritte, sondern nur durch einen Bruch mit dem bisherigen Wirtschaftssystem erreichen lässt.
Anstatt uns unseren Zweifeln zu stellen, beschlossen wir Wissenschaftler, immer aufwändigere Fantasiewelten zu konstruieren, in denen wir sicher wären. Der Preis, den wir für unsere Feigheit zahlen mussten: Wir mussten den Mund halten über die immer größer werdende Absurdität der geforderten Kohlendioxid-Entfernung im planetarischen Maßstab.
Greta Thunberg hat diesen Aufsatz als einen wichtigsten und informativsten Texte zur Klima- und ökologischen Krise bezeichnet.

Eine Studie zeigt, dass das Kraftwerk Drax in North Yorkshire trotz Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) bis in die 2050er Jahre die CO₂-Emissionen erhöhen wird. Die intensive Waldnutzung zur Gewinnung von Holzpellets in den USA reduziert die Kohlenstoffspeicher in Wäldern für mindestens 25 Jahre. Selbst mit CCS-Technologie bleiben die Emissionen über Jahrzehnte hoch, was die Klimakrise verschärft. Kritiker bezweifeln Drax' Behauptung, "klimaneutral" zu sein, und fordern eine Neubewertung der staatlichen Unterstützung für Biomasse-Energie.

Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins, who previously said she "was shocked" by Gaetz's nomination, said by withdrawing, "he put country first," and noted, "certainly there were a lot of red flags."
Collins was frequently quoted by other sources as the main Republican voice in this space.
Asked about who might replace Gaetz as Trump's pick for the attorney general, Sen. Chuck Grassley, the incoming chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said he did not "have the slightest idea who they might be."
This article claims that even people on the Hill have no clue who could be the next nominee, yet other articles speculated more than 10 names.
Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., said he would not second-guess Trump's decision to tap Gaetz, but that the president needed an attorney general that both he and the senate "can have confidence in."
Rounds was also quoted by other news outlets frequently.
"There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General," he continued.
This quote appears again, as it has in every other article.
pulled publicly by the president-elect.
First article to suggest that Trump would have pulled his name himself if he did not resign. Other sources seemed to think that Gaetz would just not get confirmed.
Those on the short list included former White House attorney Mark Paoletta, who served during Trump’s first term as counsel to then-Vice President Mike Pence and to the Office of Management and Budget; Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, who was tapped in 2022 to be the state’s top prosecutor after then-state Attorney General Eric Schmitt was elected to the U.S. Senate.
This is more speculation based on some evidence. Interestingly, it is much different than the list of possible nominees from the BBC article.
The individuals nominated and confirmed to executive branch positions hold some of the most powerful positions in government and make decisions that affect the daily lives of the entire American public as they implement and enforce the laws Congress passes.
This article continues to stress the power that Gaetz would have had if he was confirmed. This is a narrative of escaping or dodging possible terrible consequences.
After public outcry from elected officials and voters, both liberal and conservative, former Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew his name from consideration to be nominated attorney general of the United States.
This paints a different narrative from other news sources. It claims that Gaetz withdrew due to public outcry rather than his own decision.
Will Matt Gaetz return to Congress?
Like the CNN article this one has a section of opinion masked as prediction.
reportedly prompting a significant closed-door effort by him and Trump to secure the necessary support.
This closed-door effort to get votes is a secondary story that has been touched on by multiple outlets. This story says it was him and Trump while CNN said it was him and Vance.
"needlessly protracted Washington scuffle."
Quote that has shown up often. Trying to diffuse seriousness of report.
after days of debate over whether to release a congressional report on sexual misconduct allegations against him.
This suggests binary of whether to release or not to release. If it was released he would look guilty and not get votes but if it was not then he would keep skeletons hidden. Obviously there is much more than this and we do not know the contents of the report.

Treasury yields have gone up as the dollar's value has actually weakened as normally you'd expect as Treasury yields go up, that the dollar would strengthen because there would be more demand for American assets.
for - why - increase in treasury yields normally strengthens US Dollar - Gemini AI gives a good explanation - Yes, it's generally expected that when U.S. Treasury yields increase, the value of the US dollar will strengthen. - This is because higher yields attract more foreign investment, increasing demand for the dollar to purchase those assets. - Higher yields ( higher interest rate) mean more attractive returns: - When Treasury yields rise, the returns on U.S. government bonds become more appealing to investors, both domestic and foreign. - Increased demand for US dollars: - As investors from other countries seek to buy these higher-yielding U.S. assets, they need to first convert their local currencies into US dollars to make the purchase. - This increased demand for dollars strengthens its value. - Safe-haven status: - During times of economic uncertainty, investors often flock to safe-haven assets like U.S. Treasuries. This further boosts the demand for the US dollar, as it is the currency used to hold these assets. - Currency Valuation - A strong currency indicates a healthy economy and can attract more foreign investment. This creates a positive feedback loop, as a stronger dollar can further boost investor confidence and lead to even higher demand for US assets.

The 2024 Global Carbon Budget projects fossil carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of 37.4 billion tonnes, up 0.8% from 2023. Despite the urgent need to cut emissions to slow climate change, the researchers say there is still “no sign” that the world has reached a peak in fossil CO2 emissions. With projected emissions from land-use change (such as deforestation) of 4.2 billion tonnes, total CO2 emissions are projected to be 41.6 billion tonnes in 2024, up from 40.6 billion tonnes last year.

Jin's operation was based in China, and he used encrypted communications and cryptocurrencies to conduct his business. The investigation involved a team of agents from various federal agencies, including the DEA, FBI, and IRS, who worked together to gather evidence and track down Jin's associates in the US. One of these associates, Bin Wang, was arrested in 2017 and later sentenced to six years in prison. The team discovered that Jin was using a company in Tonga to ship his packages, and that he was offering a wide range of synthetic opioids, including carfentanil and U-48800. As the investigation continued, the team found that Jin's operation was linked to numerous death cases across the US, and that he was using his websites to sell drugs to customers in the US. The team eventually identified Jin as Fujing Zheng, a 35-year-old man from Shanghai, and his father, Guanghua Zheng, who was 62. The Zhengs were found to be operating a sophisticated online drug trafficking operation, using encrypted communications and cryptocurrencies to conduct their business. Despite the evidence gathered, the Chinese government refused to extradite the Zhengs to the US, citing a lack of evidence. The US government eventually indicted the Zhengs and shut down their websites, but they remain at large in China. The investigation highlighted the challenges of combating online drug trafficking, particularly when it involves foreign nationals and jurisdictions.

turning conscientious objectors . . . into heroes of the antimilitarism movement could unwittingly perpetuate exactly the sort of masculinized privilege that nurtures militarism”
archetype of the hypermasculine wheelchair-bound veteran dissenter.
The figure of the grieving mother is a collectivity, with women characterized as part of a population of mothers with a collective experience of loss. Their dissent is practiced through invocations of a dead or imperiled soldier child, who signifies the claim to associative military masculinity. In contrast, the perspective of the returning veteran is grounded in individual experience. The film depicts women as caregivers, with their dissenting subjecthood derived from their relationships with men.
this narrative of personal growth and triumph is complicated by the fact that Tomas's newfound power and authority are rooted in traditional masculine ideals. The film ultimately suggests that the military peace movement is shaped by masculinized privilege, which can be both productive and limiting.
White Ribbon Campaign, which originated in Canada and has a branch in England, is a group of men committed to discussing and ending male violence against women. However, there is a lack of groups of men in the anti-militarist and peace movements who analyze and resist the deformation of manhood by militarization. For war to end, men need to become self-aware and refuse the violence expected of them, and the association of masculinity with militarism. Some men, such as those in the Turkish conscientious objectors movement and South Korean anti-militarist men, are starting to listen to feminist ideas and take on board their perspectives.

Überblicksartikel von 2019 zu den Angriffen auf die Wissenschaft während der ersten Trump-Regierung und ihre kurz- und langfristigen Folgen. Forschungen zur Klimakrise und öffentlichen Gesundheit wurden behindert, weil sie den Interessen der fossilen Industrien schaden. Der Kampf gegen Foschung, die Interessen bestimmter Unternehmen und Branchen bedroht, ging aber weit über die Klimathematik hinaus und dient u.a. auch der Chemie- und Agroindustrien. Zu den Maßnahmen gehörten: - Beendigung von Forschungsprojekten - Abbau des Einflusses von Wissenschaftler:innen auf regulatorische Entscheidungen - Verhinderung von öffentlichen Stellungnahmen von Wissenschaftler:innen - Behinderung von Forschungen zum menschengemachten Klimawandel - Vorschreiben erwünschter Forschungsergebnisse - Overruling von Experten durch politische Funktionäre bei Begutachtungen und Regulierungen - Einstellungsstopps und Entlassungen - Entfernung bestimmter Wissenschaftler:innen aus Beratungsgremien - Verbot der Berücksichtigung bestimmter Wissenschaftstypen bei Regulierungen - Druck auf Forschende, unwissenschaftliche Aussagen des Präsidenten zu unterstützen - Schließung von Forschungszentren und -büros und Auflösung von Ausschüssen - Umsiedlungen von Behörden und Forschungseinrichtungen in unattraktive Gegenden
