TIL that the scp command does not, by default, compress files it transfers, and that you need to add the -C flag to make it do that, and by doing that I have sped up my transfer speed about 40x, and without this knowledge I have probably wasted literally days of my life waiting for things in the past.

Just improved the #flathub search a bit more 🎉

We’re excited to announce we’re expanding Mozilla.social to a private beta, with hopes to open to the public soon.

This is just the beginning. Read more about the launch of our instance, including how to join the public waitlist. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/mozilla-social-mastodon-private-beta-announcement/

Nice #Librem5 update today brings Camera-Update. All the different functions (Gain, Balance, Exposure, Focus) can now be set to auto. While not always working perfect, this enhances my fotos as my use case in 99 % is not to set all parameters perfectly but to just take quick a foto. Also there is video-recording now. I am excited. I am about two weeks daily driving my Librem5 now and I feel that I will not switch back to Android. #purism #linuxphones

Seaweeds are not plants. They’re algae, without roots or leaves, although they do photosynthesize: harvesting the sun’s energy to build themselves. BUT there are a small number of real flowering plants in the sea: the seagrasses, which evolved from terrestrial plants and grow in large meadows.  Mostly water moves pollen around, but for at least one species, small crustaceans do the job of bees and carry sticky pollen from one plant to another.  Underwater gardening, anyone?  #Ocean #Seagrass

Did you a pepper becomes a chile when it is picked & dried?

A green jalapeño or cuaresmeño becomes chipotle. A poblano turns to an ancho.

This infographic from El Jornalero provides a simplified look at some of the most common names of Mexican capsicum peppers & chiles. #food #science

#OnThisDay, 26 Mar 1974, Gaura Devi and 27 village women prevent the logging of trees in the village of Reni in the Himalayas. They confront armed men from the lumber company and hug the trees to stop them being felled.

Part of the Chipko movement, which was protesting deforestation, the women’s actions led to a protection order and fed into a wider desire to protect the Himalayan region.
