A graph with data stretching back to 812 AD of the dates of peak cherry tree blossom in Kyoto, Japan. The Earth’s warming trend is unmistakable — spring has been arriving sooner and sooner since ~1840 and the drop since the ’30s is, ooof. ourworldindata.org/grapher/dat…

Note to ugly American tourists. Kyoto is not an amusement park (as the mayor said).
I guess NASA is modifying the trees to make them bloom earlier every year.

Here's a way organizations can more easily join the fediverse while maintaining their brand, getting the analytics they need, and staying safe. werd.io/2024/startup-pitch-soc…

I love it! I'd love to discuss how to make this work for universities. I've been working with @bkeegan to get our campus to adopt the fediverse, and they are scared about self-hosting, etc.
in reply to Nathan Schneider

@ntnsndr @bkeegan Love it too! We’re building something very close to this as the next phase of @newsmast - a customisable community server aimed at publishers, non-profits and academic institutions.
in reply to Nathan Schneider

@ntnsndr @bkeegan I'd love to have that discussion too. I've got lots of experience selling into universities across multiple startups - I think it would be hard to make them the *first* customers because the sales cycle is so long, but I love the space, think it's really aligned, and see the benefits for sure.

I heard a rumour that you can buy the games individually if you use the steamdb browser extension and add to cart from the steamdb page. YMMV.

Get recommended to me a lot for my virtual pinball table, but I don't want to let go my Debain/Mint base.
Sadly, there is no easy way of installing the tools/scripts/configurations into an existing system.

Last year on the 8th of March, I joined International Trans★Feminist Digital Depletion Strike and made a short documentation on AlWiki about it.
>> wiki.alnik.me/index.php?title=…

This year, in solidarity with all who use Cloud platforms for organising resistance against military violence and for evidencing genocide in Palestine, Varia is calling people to “meet, take action and imagine solidary approaches for boycotting, divesting and sanctioning The Cloud Regime”. Join them if you’re in Rotterdam.
>> varia.zone/en/ccg-8m-2024.html

If you’re not, like me, you can also tune in radio WORM and listen to Fem Fest’s all day programme. This year, I will try to make a documentation of what’s happening there. 🙂

in reply to NASA

The Tarantula Zone? Space seems much more terrifying than I previously thought. Mostly a deadly nothing full of asteroids, explodings stars, high energy particles, singularities that devour suns for fun, dark and eldritch energy and matter which I must assume are the old gods... and now spiders?

Bence's version has too much post-production - you see him playing the bass line, but you're hearing the high notes.



Desmond, my Siamese cat, has Victorian waif down to a fine art.

He will sit at the far end of the hallway from the front door with his head tilted to one side, and a look of bereft anguish in his round blue eyes.
Desmond: "Oh mumma, why...why are you leaving my little sister Moki and I all alone in the cold cold house?

And when I return, same position and same look, but now he says..
Desmond: "Oh mumma, my little sister Moki and I are ever so hungry! All we have had to eat are the moths we caught in the porch!

Can you hear the violins playing in the background?



"Out of reading [The Dawn of Everything] a colleague and I, Federica Carugati who's a political scientist, started a project called Governance Archaeology. Where we started more systematically cataloguing diverse practices of self-government throughout history, around the world, and starting to develop partnerships with communities that are stewards of these practices."

nope it is focused on non-digital practices. See govbase.metagov.org and communityrule.info for the digital side

I can see the wisdom in this curation decision.

Thanks for the links : )



ah yes, indigenous languages died out because they were like appletalk, and not because the indigenous people were nearly wiped out as a result of manifest destiny

and somehow linkedin has failed to moderate this comment about a link to a blog describing an indigenous person’s attempt to create an LLM that speaks Cheyenne 🙃

We know a certain percentage of most social media platforms is fake interactions, I do wonder how much of Linkedin is that, because really the platform is just slightly more business Facebook

@BrodieOnLinux Wasn't it on Linkedin also where that "Gotta hand it to Hitler" post appeared?

February 2024 was the warmest on record. These sea surface temperature percentiles are…. worrying. #ClimateChange
in reply to Sheril Kirshenbaum

It was also the ninth straight month this occurred for the month in which it occurred.

If it happens for three more months, and then again on the 13th month, supplanting the current record set less than a year ago, we will know - even those who are asshole shitbag for profit climate change deniers like Dr. Matthew Wielicki will have a very difficult time convincing people we are not truly fucked.

Because all the evidence says we are.
