On a more positive note, this setup could be ideal if a partner needs to get up early to work nights or gets back late due to shift work. esp if there is no room for separate bedrooms.

@atomicpoet I just downloaded the app and it took me five minutes.  And I am the most un-technical person around
BP yearly profits have doubled to $27.7bn (£23bn), a new record. It's also now reduced its climate emissions target, because fuck the planet. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-64544110
@DeanObeidallah +1 for the sake of the rest of the world NDICT TRUMP
Capitol police re-install security fencing around Capitol before the State of Union address. The reason is concerns that Trump’s terrorists may wage another attack. Yet not one leading Republican denounces the threats of violence. Today GOP is what FASCISM looks like. #SOTU
@zleap here’s a whole story on thr land under threat & the people fighting for it 🖤
@scorpiontongue
Yes, happy to boost, electric cars are great, in terms of reducing pollutants, but what is the cost to the environment when extracting lithium from the ground. This is hidden, and not discussed.
psa: the lithium america company got a major win in court, and the thacker pass mine is one step closer to being built.
Paiute land defenders are hurting from this verdict and are considering next moves.
please share, to raise awareness:

If you have a program such as vokoscreen-ng are you able to make a short video on how to switch from normal <> dark mode please. It helps others and also promotes the feature. I have made a few 7.4 videos. Unless you just put the steps here and I can do that.
@libreoffice has a #DarkMode. 😍
OK, I updated from 7.3, so I probably missed this feature in 7.4, but this is a _huge_ improvement for me. And I just discovered, that I can change the document background, too. Less strain on my eyes. I'm in love! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
In the latest episode of The Science Of Social Media, we discuss what Mastodon is, how it differs from traditional social media, and how to get started on the platform.
If you're new to Mastodon, this episode is for you.

It probably depends if mainstream social media can be used to manipulate people like before, or if the algorithms have changed to stop it
@Lowie@universeodon.com @therobburgessshow
Agreed.
Are you a student majoring in... anything? Apply now for an internship at http://intern.nasa.gov!
We have several programs, including Pathways, which accept many majors and provide a structured path to potential full-time employment at NASA after graduation. Deadline: Feb. 10.

Could hosting services be added to fediverse.party ?
🥳 HOORAY! 🥳
#SpaceHost is taking applications for early access!
What is #SpaceHost? Fully managed hosting for the Fediverse!
Among the services we will host:
* Mastodon
* Pixelfed
* Calckey
* Lemmy
* Gitea
* and more!
What's more, we'll have your instance up and running within 5 minutes!
@reiver and I have been fast at work on #SpaceHost for months. We want to make running a Fediverse instance super easy peasy!
It will soon be available in closed beta!
