Olympics Opening Ceremony Megathread

The Paris 2024 Olympic Opening Ceremonies will take place along the Seine River and at the Jardins du Trocadéro starting at 19:30 local time. It will feature performances highlighting the culture of Paris and France, the Parade of Nations, and the lighting of the Olympic cauldron. French President Emmanuel Macron will be expected to formally open the Games.

Details

The Opening Ceremony will notably be the first one not to take place inside a stadium. Instead of a traditional Parade of Nations, athletes will be transported by over 90 boats along 6km of the Seine River, starting at the Pont d'Austerlitz and ending at the Jardins du Trocadéro across from the Eiffel Tower. Along the way, they will pass by various landmarks including the Notre Dame and the Louvre, as well as many venues for the Games. The rest of the Ceremony and official protocols will take place at the Jardins du Trocadéro, including a laser show.

Meanwhile, performances showcasing France’s history and culture will happen alongside the Parade. Thomas Jolly, the Artistic Director of the Opening Ceremonies, stated that these will depict 12 scenes that both play with and challenge the clichés associated with Paris. Performances will occur on monuments, water, rooftops, bridges, in the sky, and on and artificial islands. Over 3,000 dancers, actors, musicians, and acrobats are expected to feature, including French ballet dancer Guillaume Diop, pop star Aya Nakamura, Celine Dion, and Lady Gaga.

AIO that I'm angry because husband won't get a vasectomy?

I (40f) have never wanted children and have a bisalp (fallopian tube removal) next week. I am married to Bob (36m). I have had horrible experiences on birth control from nausea, suicidal thoughts, getting my paragard ripped out which resulted in a lot of pain and scarring.

I tried getting paragard put in again, but my cervix was so damaged that it didn't sit right and I got pregnant. I needed an abortion, since there is NO WAY I would ever go through pregnancy (I was told I could die or suffer serious complications if I did want it, since the IUD was in), so I flew to another state that didn't have an abortion ban.

Roe v. Wade being overturned is a scary ass situation, and I'm worried about what Republicans might do in the future, so I want a permanent solution.

I asked Bob to get a vasectomy, and he refused. His reasons are: 1. He doesn't believe in altering the human body for religious reasons. 2. He doesn't want kids, but if I died he would remarry and have kids if SHE wanted them. 3. His body, his choice.

Since I just turned 40, I was able to find a doc that would do a salpingectomy, but I am scared. I don't like I.V.'s, or surgery, or scars, or pain. I don't want to be lying around unable to lift anything for 2 weeks.

I am getting angrier by the day, and have been arguing with my husband every day. I also don't feel like sex.

Am I overreacting for turning down sex and starting daily arguments? Should I just buckle up and shut my mouth?

I absolutely would not divorce him over this. He doesn't want kids, so im not sure why people keep saying he does.It's a simpleish surgery, and then I'm sure we will go back to normal. I would never force him to get a vasectomy, I am just scared and taking it out on him, which makes me the AH. I was just asking if im currently overreacting.

Edit: people keep saying to get my tubes tied. I am getting a bisalp next week.

Edit: Thank you for those of you calming my fears about my upcoming surgery. I am overreacting! I will calm my tits.

Ask HN: Best website animation for technical product

What are some of the animations you've seen on B2B SaaS website? I'm specifically interested in animations that provide a high-level overview to the product/service

https://knock.app/ has a couple informative animations, but they are super simple https://miro.com/ has some great animations, but they are far to detailed
