@tfardet They are not as yet, but I am a member of the space science club, but it is content such as this that can hopefully draw people in, or at least those that don't want to use mainstream social media.
@ultem Well hopefully not, and also hopefully not with lots of DRM included, taking of which it is Day Against DRM tomorrow.
@ultem Ah, seems bit heavy handed, that eh. It has lots of books that are out of copyright but we can buy in physical format, people still buy physical books. Sometimes we buy books after reading them electronically.
@tfardet Look interesting, it may be of interest to the OU Science group too.
@ultem Why is it blocked ? surely writing and publishing comes under free speech / expression.

In 2020, the world collectively spent approximately $1.8 trillion on its militaries. If that much money was spent on food, welfare, healthcare, and infrastructure, I doubt there would be much reason left for everyone to keep fighting.
@noisytoot Thank you for watching the presentation earlier, I have now added the updated source and pdf to the salsa repository and also uploaded remaining assets for the presentation.

Found an answer in the Announcement post when Markdown was introduced to Qoto:
> Keep in mind that while many other fediverse serves will view the rich text not all servers can or will and the formatting will be converted into html in a best-effort to remain compatible. For examples vanilla Mastodon instances reject all special formatting, but links from markdown should still be correctly rendered, but bold and other formatting will be filtered out on Mastodon. Pleorma and other software which allows rich-text should properly render the markdown.
So basically, it seems like links should likely work everywhere without a problem, it's just fancy text rendering that's likely to get stripped out elsewhere.
@ScienceDaily@newsbots.eu That would really mess up Radar from M*A*S*H though eh, he could hear choppers before anyone else did.

British officials authorized a COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use, greenlighting the world’s first shot against the virus that’s backed by rigorous science and taking a major step toward eventually ending the pandemic. http://apne.ws/2diX4EC https://twitter.com/AP_Europe/status/1334084013649256452 #News #AP #Europe #Science #Shot #virus

I am making 4 blog posts on Cryptpad today. Published over the next few hours. A 5th has links to the previous 4. So less posts = less notifications but also reaches out to those who are interested.

"In this demo I remotely trigger an unauthenticated kernel memory corruption #vulnerability which causes all #Apple #iOS devices in radio-proximity to reboot, with no user interaction. Over the next 30'000 words I'll cover the entire process to go from this basic demo to successfully exploiting this vulnerability in order to run arbitrary code on any nearby iOS device and steal all the user data"

the #programming language #rust | #rustlang gets an increasing userbase in the #science community. So much in fact, that even the journal #nature has published an article on the topic:
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03382-2
it's quite a natural fit, since scientists aren't the best coders. So while rust has a steep learning curve, you can still get results with speeds of C/C++ comparably fast without living in fear of segfaults (that is if the right libraries are available).
@mastodonusercount
Are there any statistics on how many of these remain active accounts?
