I forgot to do an #introduction I make and sell #needlefelt animals and write and illustrate picture books about them published by Graffeg. I am non binary and bi live in #Wales and getting on a bit, have 4 cats and a lurcher. I also do stop motion animations just to make people smile. Kindness and mischief all the way. #LGBTQ #books #artist #illustration

A beginning is a very delicate time.

🎉 #Mastodon 4.0 is out now! This server software update includes a ton of improvements, like following hashtags, translating posts, editing, an improved filtering system, customizable user roles for administration, but also some important security fixes.

Check out the full changelog:

Les passagers de l'embarcation naufragée étaient en eaux anglaises. Aussi l'opérateur a-t-il obéi aux injonctions du sommet de l'Etat: se moquer des victimes et empêcher un navire de les aider.

27 morts.
27 meurtres par barbarie.

#introduction

👋 Hi all ! I am a research engineer at CNRS 🇫🇷, working at the UAR RIATE on the development of applications or libraries for the visualization or the processing of geographic information.
I did my PhD in Grenoble 🏔️🚁 about Semantic Web and geovisualisation.

I love #foss, #python, #rust, #JSspatial, #osm, #dataviz, #qgis and #gis in general.
Also maintainer of https://magrit.cnrs.fr 🗺️ (thematic cartography tool).

Ce ne sont pas des manques d'anticipation. Ce sont des choix budgétaires.

Are you the kind of person who likes to spend hours exploring #HistoricalMaps of your neighbourhood? This might be exactly the thing for you... https://bothness.github.io/ons-basemaps/

Hi friends - at the advice of some helpful followers, I've migrated my account to this server.

I've tweeted about it here, and you'll see that my Linktree also links to this new profile.

Excited to be here with you all!

So I'll start as I'd like to think I'll go on - with a photo! And I'll start with a good one! It's not new, but hey, you've probably not seen it before 😂

#Peebles in the Scottish Borders at sunset, a January a few years ago

It was spectacular! And pure luck that the photo wasn't ruined by camera shake as I was shooting over a 6 foot wall!

TO JOURNALISTS: Please don't use Mastodon for private messages. Instead, use an encrypted messenger.

If you want something decentralized, I suggest XMPP or The Matrix.

Good old fashioned email also works.

There's also an instant messenger known as DeltaChat that's based on email protocols, and sends your chats to email—where they can be stored and archives. https://delta.chat/en/

Someone managed to wipe $16bn off of Eli Lilly's valuation by paying $8 to verify a parody account, then tweeting that they're making insulin free

I am wreaking a little havoc on Twitter right now. I’m feeling quite smug.

If you want to find out about the work I've done on the sim to date, it's here for now: https://www.curiousduck.io/

I say "for now" because I'm in the middle of redoing all my web sites. (Recently took down testobsessed.com.) Eventually I'll send an update to the newsletter subscribers over there to watch my mastodon feed here for updates & will repurpose that URL.

Not sure where I'll put the existing content. Since it's of limited interest, might just store it privately. So, read while you can?

I'd like to hear what people want out of #ScienceMastodon

To me, the best bit of Twitter has been learning and chatting about cool science; and hearing what my colleagues are up to. At it's best it's the poster session at a conference

But instead the algorithm gives you this toxic--but highly addictive--sludge

So I'd love to recreate the best bits of that here--I'd love to be able to come here and consistently learn from interesting people (and keep the existential doom elsewhere)

Thoughts?

... See you... 👋

Twitter c'est la majorité du traffic vers ma boutique en ligne, c'est une audience potentielle de 27.000 personne qui risque de s'évaporer si ça capote, deux ans d'effort pour m'assurer que mon travail me permette de vivre. Et tout ça, ça peut voler en éclats à cause d'un milliardaire capricieux.

Je ne sais sincèrement pas si j'arriverai à compenser, et si je devrais abandonner mon travail d'artisan d'art. Je viens pas des écoles, j'ai pas d'autre réseau. On est pas mal d'artistes à flipper.
