An induction stove with a large battery built in! It's the first of what will be many "energy storage enabled" (ESE) appliances. Come listen to a discussion of why this is such a big deal: https://www.volts.wtf/p/induction-stoves-with-batteries-built#details
The wealthiest 10% of the UK use, on average, more energy just for international flights than the poorest 20% use for everything. https://www.carbonbrief.org/richest-people-in-uk-use-more-energy-flying-than-poorest-do-overall/
In 1941, Nazis asked the city of Amsterdam to make this map of Jews in the city. Each dot equalled 10 Jews.
In 2022, TX AG @KenPaxtonTX sought data from driver's licenses on #transgender Texans.
But don't worry. History never repeats itself. #LGBTQ+

TIL: There is a cursed color in the Kodak ProPhoto RGB color space which, when converted to sRGB using pre-August-2020-Security-Update Android's image conversion routines, causes an integer overflow and a crash due to a rounding error. Some dude accidentally created an image (https://www.flickr.com/photos/gaurav_agrawal/48746079687/) which contains the cursed color on a single pixel. In 2020 if you set this image as your desktop on a Google or Samsung device, the device would brick & lose all onboard data https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXKvwPjCGnY
I saw this post from @BlackAzizAnansi that Mastodon remains an overwhelmingly white space and I can't refute that, but I'm angry that it is this way. My experience in tech is that there's no shortage of black talent or black voices, there's a shortage of black opportunity and space due to racism. I see that reflected here. I feel like if we want a #blackmastodon then we can't be passive about this, we have to be intentionally inclusive, intentionally anti-racist. It's not enough to just support.
Hello Mastadon! Here's my #introduction: I'm an Assistant Professor of Biochemistry at the University of Utah specializing in molecular and cellular visualization, particularly 3D animation. We're interested in thinking about how to use visualization in scientific research, communication, education, and outreach. Here's a little montage of animations I've worked on over the years. Do you recognize any?
Twitter has now updated its TOS to support the banning of accounts like elonjet by making it against the rules to reveal someone's "actual physical location, or other identifying information that would reveal a person's location".
It is now against TOS to tweet about a live press conference in the Rose Garden.
If the weather predictions are correct, this is the only day with a bit of sunshine this week. Those little spots on the road are #IdąPsięta, our #dogs. #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia
This is what Scotty likes the most.

I just want to spread some love for #beetles. Not sure this is the right place, but if you found me, hello! 🪲💚
Het was zo'n koude morgen. Heb het korte dorpsommetje Harbrinkhoek maar gelopen plaats van de lange.

@elonjet Welcome to the Fediverse!
We've been expecting you.
You're going to hear a lot today about how the surge in atmospheric methane in 2020 and 2021 appears to be tied to a big increase in wetlands emissions -- a strong sign of a possible positive feedback to global warming. Not a good thing.
If you read @sciencemagazine, of course, you would have heard about this 6 months ago!
Living in the #wetlands of #Polesia (also spelled #Polesie) in #EasternPoland. Surrounded by #bogs and #forests, trying not to fuck up surrounding nature too much.
Taking care of a small pack of #dogs – #IdąPsięta.
Luddite working with hi-tech.
#RuralBroadband provider by accident. Starting a small LoRaWAN project to monitor our wetlands. Coding in #Python. Dealing with dirty data, cleaning them when time allows.
#Atheist. I don't *believe* in #science – science is the *only* thing that protects us from belief.
Fuck nazis.
My account on Twitter is still up, for good reasons. https://twitter.com/szescstopni
I check facts before I toot.
I sometimes toot in Polish.
