I work in the field of Life Sciences. My activity usually revolves around genetics and bioinformatics. I also like programming and data science / machine learning.
I started migrating to more ethical digital spaces and services after I had first-hand experience working for one of the most abominable enterprises. There is so much I want to say about it but can't due to legal reasons.

@vriska better mention I support lgbtqwertyz+, otherwise I don't get those juicy social justice warrior points®
@freemo Well yeah, after you're like 65+...
How old were you when you found out that even after giving 1/3 of your money in taxes for years, when you resign and become unemployed, you don't receive any kind of subsidies? I was yesterday years old.
@noyoushutthefuckupdad nice try, landlords. At least the other two provide service and entretainment (shitty one or immoral one). The peak of landlord'd job is when he gives you the keys (of the house that probably isn't even his own... You essentially pay someone's else mortgage).

Do you want to run your own Fediverse instance, but don't want to do the tech stuff?
✅ Managed hosting services let you create your own instances without technical knowledge. They handle the tech stuff behind the scenes, you do the rest.
Some hosts for Mastodon, PixelFed & PeerTube include:
https://hostdon.jp (in Japanese)
@tk pleas, no. it hurts
@todayilearned@botsin.space In my country (Portugal), theree is a far-right party who wanted to force quotas on Portuguese movies in cinemas (something like 10%)... It is funny how the concept of far right varies according to who does the thing xD
@freemo hmmm but what if it's one of the "big" ones like the mastodon social? I will be banning a huge proportion of the fediverse :(
@justin when I become more tech savvy, I'll create my own instance too xD Just out of curiosity, how much does it cost monthly overall? Maintaining a server, a domain etc...
So far I'm absolutely loving Mastodon! It it everything I looked to get rid of in Facebook/Twitter etc... The only thing that bothers me is there are too many people with anime profile pics and japanese nicknames posting furry/loli/borderline pedo content.
@hhes no... I followed a couple of portuguese users that I found randomly in federated timeline but that's about that... are you portuguese?
I actually thought about this meme in my head. Just was too lazy to make it.

Israel already vaccinated 1/4th of their peopleb (by far highest rate worldwide). Yet again another argument to fund science and research. As the article puts it, "You wouldn't wait for a war to break out to start finding the military". Yet that's exactly what most countries are doing.
Another interesting thing it proves is that the government efficiency is just one factor of abysmally slow COVID vaccination... Arguably not even the most important one...
