We need to engage with people that have beliefs, different from ours, even if these appear naive to us. The exchange would certainly have benefits for both sides.

@litteracarolina an assertive question to explore further context: do I understand correctly that you're working on deriving writing gestures (mostly) from the scriptures? Sounds intriguing, but if my understanding is correct, the computing subfield might be somewhat different. E.g. computer animation, reverse kinematics? Not sure

Are any computer scientists here on Mastodon working in Visual Computing, or Computer Vision? I'm looking for a collaborator to work on the visualisation of medieval handwriting as movement. Would be grateful for re-posts!

I want to re-set my taste a bit and watch some beautiful movies that weren’t made in America. (A few years ago I did a Subtitle February and I liked that a lot.)

I watched Drive My Car (Japan, 2021) yesterday, and Decision To Leave (South Korea, 2022) today. What else should I watch? Thanks in advance!

@tomastom @mapto@masto.bg благодаря за предложението. Предвид,че имаме избор, търся сървъри, където приемат акаунти на RSS ботове. В момента виждам два аргумента да се съмнявам, че vivaldi.net е такъв сървър:
1. Описват поставете на @mediapool като "backlinking" (T&C->What you agree not ti do: "Post content that is clipped or incomplete with the sole purpose of linking to the full article on another website. We consider this to be backlinking.").
2. Регистрацията включва участие в съпорт форума на техните продукти.

Precisazione importante: Threads e Bluesky usano una federazione parziale ed entrambi i social non federano i loro utenti di default, solo una piccola minoranza è federata, nel caso di threads addirittura nessun utente europeo può federarsi.

Gli utenti federati per entrambi i social sono meno di 5000, per fare un confronto, solo su mastodon.social vediamo ben 180mila utenti!

Quindi si tratta al momento di un evento marginale al #fediverso che potete seguire o bloccare come volete

indie game and art store itch.io is down, and according to their bluesky account, it’s because *Funko Pops* filed a nonsense claim against their domain bsky.app/profile/itch.io/post/

@SRLevine @skinnylatte
Could anyone explain to me how are places not reachable on foot or public transport livable at all? Does it mean that you don't get out of your house without the car? I mean, other than having no contact with nature and society, there is also an inherent cost to this. What happens if you break a leg or loose sight so you can no longer drive?

I've been coming back to this and find it ever more difficult to trace it back, so now I repost.

Wild boars in Bavaria have dug out radiation we have forgotten about

"The team set out to analyze cesium levels using 48 samples of wild boar meat collected by hunters during 2019–2021, from 11 regions of Bavaria."

"Radioactive cesium levels in 88 percent of the meat samples tested were higher than Germany's legal threshold."

"All samples exhibit signatures of mixing," write the researchers. "Nuclear weapons fallout and [Chernobyl] have mixed in the Bavarian soil, the release maxima of which were about 20−30 years apart," the team writes."

@LupinoArts @f_moncomble I guess one possible attempt is to anonymise data, for corpus analysis you don't even need to relate different posts. For discourse analysis you could pseudonymise.

A group of middle-ranking officers of the Self-Defense Forces inspected a Chinese air force facility in Tianjin on Thursday as part of an exchange program between the two countries' defense personnel. japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/11/ #japan #sdf #defense #china #chinajapanrelations

@ned @electrek he's seeing his horizons narrowing down on him and doing anything possible to survive in his position of top multibillionaire. Not very different from what Trump does to keep out of prison. They've lost principles or dignity a long time ago.
