~100 more Starlink v1 satellites will be burning up in the upper atmosphere in the next 6 months, bringing up the total number of de-orbited Starlink satellites to ~500 out of 6000 launched

De-orbiting satellites by burning them up did work when the volume of satellites was small, but already 10% of aerosol particules in the stratosphere contain aluminum/other metals.
The problem is only going to get worse with the launch of megaconstellations pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas…

The next beta version of #Signal will be version 7.0.0.
There's a good reason for the round number. This will be the first version where usernames and phone number privacy are available outside of the staging environment.
From this version on, you'll be able to talk to people on Signal without revealing your phone number, and also, you may use Signal without revealing to people who have your number saved that you do.
This is huge.

If you run a Mastodon server, especially if it's small and only lightly moderated, I would STRONGLY suggest enabling 'Approval required for sign up'. It means that your server is MUCH less likely to become the next source of spam in this wave we're seeing.

Thank you @clarice overhere and @Corinne Howell! Lavender handspa...hmmm! ❤
My current catchphrase is: It's not realism! It's finely detailed impressionism!
I keep slipping into the extra work because I love textures, and I love bringing extra volume to my characters.

I mean let's just admit it, we've all run partial upgrades at some point.
Sometimes I need software now, and don't have time to wait for a full upgrade.
