@mwl either your quote bot is wrong or I’m wrong.

But I seem to remember seeing that .internal was making progress through the approva / reservation process recently.

It was right when I wrote it.

And I'll believe in .internal when it's canonized, not before. I've been disappointed too many times.

“The United States needs to reflect upon its behaviour and really achieve consistency in whatever rules they are preaching to the rest of the world.

Because mankind really has eyesight and has a brain and can see what they are doing. It is time for the United States to really rise up to the occasion and stop the atrocities being committed against the Palestinian people.”

I don't remember planting any peppers, but have 3 of these growing in different pots and this little guy has already produced a little flower.


Have no idea what kind of #pepper it is.

It will be exciting to see.

Some good news for Good Games.

The abrupt closure of Humble’s publishing division left a number of indie developers in a state of uncertainty. But now a new label headed by former Humble staff, called the Good Games Group, has formed, with the goal of “working with the amazing indie developers we collaborated with at Humble Games, while also allowing us to chart a new course for the future.”

That's why you'll never see Edward Scissorhands as a player. He'll always get the ball, and shred it.

They don't have that problem with Geoffrey Rockhands or Scotty Paperhands.

intéressant le navigateur floorp.app/fr (fork de firefox)

cependant "En bloquant seulement les traceurs malveillants et en écoutant les opinions des propriétaires de sites web qui vivent de la publicité, etc."🤔

et

"Later this year, Ablaze plans to launch a number of initiatives to help maintain the health of the browser and generate revenue from its software in a way that doesn’t compromise user privacy."🤔

ça risque d'être un "business model" à la Brave ensuite…

Il faudra vérifier si FireDragon, le navigateur de Garuda Linux qui dérive de Floorp (et que j’utilise actuellement), suit le même chemin ou s’en détache.


There is no doubt that senior fossil fuel execs have deliberately inflamed where we are in ways that ought to be criminal. But the thing is, there are few things in modernity that get manufactured and/or reach end use without oil, including every renewable power installation.

Oil meets demand.

If we don’t want the violence we are now seeing, which is just the start, we have to be willing to make major changes ourselves and force governance to follow

Climate change and the rest of the poly crisis, conflict, war, mass migrations are symptoms of the flaw within capitalism, the need for perpetual growth.
In order to address any or all the symptoms we must first deal with the root cause.
in reply to Dan Hoover

@ddmgmgh We’re agreed on that. But the whole thing is an unsustainable mess that goes way beyond capitalism. We have to fight on multiple fronts concurrently. The important point is to make the case for substantive change in whatever ways we can, and not just passively wait for it to submerge us

University of Strathclyde rank 4th best in the world at providing open access to research they produced in 2019-2022, according to the CWTS Leiden Ranking Open Edition 2024.

That's the impact of @g3om4c , right? 🙂

in reply to Ross Mounce

🤣 Thanks Ross! Well, I can safely assume some credit, as I left in the second half of 2023! 👍 But it was always a team effort at Strathclyde, with @pcastromartin and the wider team @openstrath providing the engine room for progress! And, of course, the great majority of researchers who shared the open research vision. #OpenAccess #GreenOA
in reply to George Macgregor

@pcastromartin @openstrath

indeed.

I bet you did repository tune-ups for St Andrews, Dundee, & Stirling too by the looks of it?

Impactful work I'd say 👍 🔥 💯 🎉

in reply to Ross Mounce

@pcastromartin @openstrath I can't take credit there -- no tune-ups from me -- just good spadework from the folks at Scottish institutions. William Nixon presented a paper at the Open Repositories conference a few years ago about the shared focus on #OpenAccess by Scottish institutions. Definitely a lot of knowledge sharing, etc.
