I promise I will post half sensible, half intelligent things, eventually.

But my present concern, today, is the current lack of quolls on this platform (well… this seems on par with their virtual extinction on the Australian mainland.)

An under-appreciated and critically threatened animal.

#Mood #DogsOfMastodon It’s cold and dreary these days and I would like to find a quiet, cozy corner to hideaway too. Wake me up when it’s spring please 🥹

on the left: not a single one of these devices still boots. most of them did, when they were first put on the shelf. even if they could be repaired to boot up, a secure operating system no longer exists that will run on them

on the right: each one of these still works great, other than batteries (replaceable) and the occasional loose hinge. despite the average age being 2x of the phones, half of them are still in active everyday use

Folks, this is bad news. Very, very bad. Hackers and/or malicious insiders have leaked the platform certificates of several vendors. These are used to sign system apps on Android builds, including the "android" app itself. These certs are being used to sign malicious Android apps!

Many know the #climatestripes, created by Professor Ed Hawkins at the University of Reading in 2018. They are a simple series of vertical coloured bars, showing the heating of the planet over 200 years.

Not everyone knows about the Global Bio Stripes. They show the decline of wildlife from 1970 to 2016 (based on data from Living Planet Index)

O, dzisiaj jest druga rocznica głośnej ucieczki po rynnie Jozsefa Szájera z Fideszu 🌈

I have not gotten this much racist abuse since joining the fediverse. I have gotten isolated cases of harassment on twitter but nothing of this scale or as pervasive. The fediverse is racist and white people do nothing about it. Let's start with some slurs to hook you up.

Let's see if any of you white people can stomach this thread 🙂​
