Hello. We have a new comet that could reach naked eye visibility over the next few weeks: C/2023 P1 Nishimura, discovered by Hideo Nishimura observing from Kakegawa, Japan on August 11th. Currently at +9th magnitude (with a bullet) in the constellation Gemini, the comet is well-placed in the pre-dawn sky. The comet is expected to brighten to +2 magnitude in early September, when it passes 0.29 AU from the Earth on September 13th, and reaches perihelion 0.22 AU from the Sun on September 18th.
The internet is amazing. I've just discovered a live webcam from a waterfall in Alaska where brown bears are fishing for salmon.
That's my evening sorted!

what would #fediverse server software specifically designed for scientists look like? #science https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02554-0
@erlend is correct.
While I think the current Fediverse servers different communities better or worse (for instance sports Twitter I don't think has migrated here yet) EVERYONE building out any form of #OpenSource software should make the Fedi their primary social home.
Far better community here than anywhere else in pretty much every regard now.

Just putting it out there again, if you know of any companies hiring a hard-working girl that has experience with most administrative tasks, a degree in accounting, and the willingness to learn whatever else she can, please think of me! I want remote, but bonus if I could work from anywhere in the world as long as I have internet connection
My current job is beating me up mentally and I am so tired of being blamed for things that aren't my fault
The ban on #trans women in #chess is hitting me particularly hard.
I'm a chess enthusiast (in keeping with my careful curated rep as an expert strategist).
It's just this wtf moment that pulls the wind right out of my sails.
I know really well that lots of folks don't like us. But ... how are we ever gonna overcome a level of pure unhinged bigotry that says we can't be trusted play chess?
Obviously ALL women should be insulted by this move.
@susankayequinn @mrcompletely the attempt to take over school boards and banned books absolutely goes back to the 50s at the very latest. It's just becoming more popular again as the far right has seized control of the Conservative Republican Party. I mean the Conservative Republican party no longer exists but it did not that long ago.
This seems to sum up the PATHETIC UK justice system
