@freemo Yeah, it sucks. We need more skilled communicators I guess.

Considering the statistics it makes sense though, less than half of the population in the US thinks we evolved from other animals.

In Italy should be a bit above 60%, so ok, it's well reflected

@strypey Same results... we really suck in Italy I guess

Out of curiosity, I searched on youtube "theory of evolution". Out of the first 20 results, 4 were about trying to prove that evolution is a myth, and it never happened.

Then I tried in Italian, "Teoria dell'evoluzione". 9 results of the first 20 were about "debunking" the theory of evolution.

I'm not sure this is related to my personal feed, but I found it interesting. It's almost half of the results in Italian!

@galacticstone tryptophan day? I'd love for that to be a thing

@johnlitt I used nextcloud talk a few times with no issues when we had a community server... working fine.

@design_RG @johnlitt @freemo @Surasanji I was trying to check out report #480... utterly impossible. We can't mod on this kind of content.

I see 3 main topic interlacing here though:
Modding foreign alphabets and how to focus more on the STEM aspect.
Both, I feel, should be discussed in the forum, I easily lose the thread using mastodon =D

QOTO is an instance of a social network. No, it's not just to ask questions to others, I'm sorry if we gave the wrong idea.

We highly value freedom of speech, as an essential part of science, human interactions and personal development. We understand that some content may be perceived as disturbing, that is why we enforce the mandatory CW in such cases. Otherwise, anything is in general fine.

With that said, we do not have any case of such content in this instance afaik, if you do have anything could you point it out to me, please?

Also, I have nothing against vulgar, pornographic or otherwise offensive material as long as it is properly CW'ed, as by our ToS

Dear fediverse,
could you recommend me a program for pagination? I'm on debian and never had to do such work before.
Thanks!

I'm afraid I can't say much more of what wikipedia already says =D
@freemo

@freemo Do you have a picture of the whole thing, I mean not just a part of it?
Just a couple of educated guesses, may it be a ceratopogonidae larvae? Or a rotifer?

@Karthikdeva
I don't think there can be a single good reason for shutting down an account and destroying all data without at least try to reach out to the user and give him the time to back up data.

@Full_marx @iakshay @design_RG @freemo

@Simplyswapy I remember once I was in India, buying a sim card. I had to fill a form asking me a lot of stuff, like number from someone else as reference etc., so I just asked to guy "man, what's all this for? What do people do with the data?"

He must have thought I wanted to pull his leg, and got really angry with me and kick me out of the place.

I was so confused and frustrated... but I guess that data protection is not a really felt issue in India

Thanks for the post, and welcome!

@RunningInCircles@mstdn.io Sometimes my ITB used to hurt when I ran and such, so I tried the foamroll. I remember the first time, holy shit, who would have thought! It seems so relaxing from the videos, but I can confirm what you say, it's quite excruciating!

It got better after a while. I stopped using it there... for calves and upper back is just fine 😎
