Gisteren eindelijk eindelijk eens een nieuwsitem met een 'boer die het goed doet' en biologisch bezig is, al heel lang.
Hij zei wat ik vorige week verzuchtte: dat de EU met het niet doorzetten van de maatregelen over oa pesticiden, de biologische boeren vreselijk laat zakken.
Ik was blij. Laat je horen, biologische boeren.
Verhef je stem, vertel je verhaal, benader de media, doorbreek de stroom aan negatieve verhalen van de terreurboeren!
Er staan heel veel mensen achter jullie 💚💪💚

Economics is a discipline where its only a matter of mild concern to just excel autocomplete your data until the GDP of New Zealand is Tuesday

I think my only real complaint about the Glove80 so far is that the tenting mechanism is kind of terrible
I have rearranged my keyboard layout again and now it goes ESC, F2, F3, F4...
I didn't need F1 anyway

(Quick, I need to complain about something before some gods realize I'm not mostly miserable--uh--I know!)
Reporters addressing AI text/image generators -and- defensive tools like Glaze and Nightshade should be asking organizations about energy consumption. Every. Freaking. Time. Until there is a clear answer about what the product costs the world.
At least no tech has broken on me yet today

injury mention
Today's score so far:
- Spilled a third of the pancake batter all of the furnace and counter and spice rack while cooking
- Dropped the kettle into water
- Spilled boiling water over my hand (at least the burn isn't severe, just painful)
- Knocked over everything I've touched
Today really is one of those days, huh?

nowadays my go to answer to "wait so why do you use linux" is "i hate when my computer does things i don't tell it to do and i hate when my computer doesnt let me do things i want it to do" because that is the actual reason. i am not trying to convince anyone of shit

Geordi,
Is there a way to enter our authorization codes by typing them instead of speaking aloud to the computer? Several crew members have complained that they need to memorize a new code after each use because coworkers overheard them.

Yeah, yeah, “director’s cut”… When am I gonna see a “key grip’s cut”? “catering’s cut”? “studio janitor’s cut?”

fyi- Easy to access credible resource for latest covid information- “A literature hub for tracking up-to-date scientific information about the 2019 novel Coronavirus. LitCovid is the most comprehensive resource on the subject, providing a central access to 398,767 (and growing ) relevant articles in PubMed. The articles are updated daily and are further categorized by different research topics (e.g. transmission) and geographic locations. “ - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/coronavirus/

Wish people would think more critically before being like "lol look at this zany ad I got"
Yeah thats literally what they want you to do. The ad worked. They WANT you to show it to other people. Youre propagating the meme. You're advertising for free.
Stop doing that shit. You should know better.

took the elastomeric respirator out for its first spin today getting some groceries, and funnily enough, received no weird stares or comments despite it being more noticeable than auras are
it was pretty comfy and fits amazingly. wasn't hard to breathe at all in it. definitely feels empowering being able to go outside safely thanks to it

If your library needs to market itself as "industry-standard" I already know which half of that phrase the emphasis lies on, and it's not "standard"

"Industry-standard [...]"

now asking in the wider social circle of mine (boosts okay!):
I’m planning to stay in Karlsruhe from the 16th to either the 18th or 19th Feb, whichever fits better - is anyone willing to let me stay at their place so that I can take some naps on the couch? c:

i wish people would be more conscious about the proprietary nature of podcasts offered by apple and spotify. it's like f*cking google who stole email & xmpp from the open web. apple and spotify are stealing podcasts as rss feeds from the open web.
please, make an effort and post links to podcasts on sites that offer rss, like many/most podcasts on apple/spotify are also on
https://podcastindex.org or
https://podcastaddict.com
where one can subscribe to rss feed with their own client.

I’ve finished Deviations now but I wanted this to be my last quote in particular because of the mention of Hirschfeld. The Nazis shut his institute and burned his research but what he’d already published stayed out there for later generations of queer people to find and to build on. It’s easy to focus on loss - repression, censorship, the loss of communities - but it’s never total. And so the voices get passed down, for us to add our own and pass them on in turn
