In den ersten sechs Monaten unter Elon Musk zensiert Twitter mehr auf Wunsch von Regierungen als in den gesamten 12 Monaten davor. Als wir exakt das vorhersagten, dass der selbsterklärte "Redefreiheitsabsolutist" Unsinn redet, beschimpften uns seine Fans. Sorry, Elon-Fans, wir hatten wieder mal Recht. https://www.volksverpetzer.de/aktuelles/elon-zensiert-mehr-hatte-recht/?utm_source=mstdn
Parallel universes are real! You shall be sent to live in one... forever.
You will get a choice between 5 universes that each have a similar collection of languages though technology & culture may be very, possibly hazardously, different.
To make your choice you may request one (1) kind of typical artifact. This will be fetched from each universe, you may compare to make your choice.
Electronics will be disabled. If the artifact doesn't exist... you get nothing.
What do you request?
Yesterday, it seemed that the whole Fediverse (or at least a large part of it) was celebrating that @gutenberg_org joined the Fediverse.
It is nice to see that trending topics in the Fediverse are not some algorithm-boosted nonsense (on twitter often the latest catastrophe) but things that the citizens of the fediverse finds interesting. We celebrate together, we mourn together, we are engaging in great discussions. Thank you, #CitizensOfTheFediverse for that.
PSA, if someone asks you for contact info (e.g. a phone number) of someone you know, the correct response is "I can't give that to you, but I can give them yours".
It's efficient and adds no round-trips, it's privacy friendly, it's non-awkward and it's social engineering resistant. It's a universally good rule.
And the corollary, of course: Don't ask someone for another person's contact info - ask them to pass on yours.

I'm up early to read a PhD thesis before the family awakes. It's such a privilege to be able to assess these. I always learn something, and the passion and pride our colleagues pour into their work is always impressive.
If you're a PhD student who is struggling, just a little message to #KeepGoing. One day someone like me will really enjoy reading your thesis.💪
