Well, you don't discuss preferences, do you? 👍
@trinsec
No way. I prefer the real thing - lots of physics and math. (Yeah, I know I' weird...) 😆
@trinsec
It's a simulator. You can learn a lot about the universe and... how to fly and land space shuttle and other space vehicles (the physics of it, also), for example.

If I had a lot of free time I would be playing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celestia

There are currently 2,852,395 refugees from Ukraine living in Russia according to the UN Refugee Agency, this is more Ukrainian refugees than any other country have accepted.
Let that sink in for a while...

Hey friends - I am in Antarctica with extremely slow and limited internet and I have a book coming out this year that I'd normally be posting more about because pre-orders are *critical* to a book's success.
Help me get the word out?
OUT THERE: THE SCIENCE BEHIND SCI-FI FILM AND TV
From black holes to space elevators and extraterrestrial civilizations, this is a rich and beautifully illustrated book for your coffee table. And astronaut Mae Jemison wrote the Foreword!

I don't mind you asking. 😉

I've been very careful in how I approach pixelfed development in regards to Instagram and their ToS/trademarks.
This is why you can't crosspost, or otherwise access IG apis via Pixelfed.
They are grasping at straws at this point, along with banning Pixelfed urls, this behavior is desperate.
We must be doing something right 😉
Climate startup Make Sunsets releases toxic chemicals into the atmosphere to block the sun, alarming scientists

> #injecting large amounts of #particles into the #atmosphere would not undo the effects of increasing carbon dioxide levels, but rather create #another #climate scenario. It might bring down temperatures but would not, eg, reduce ocean acidification. The #consequences for precipitation and wind patterns are #unknown.
> There are currently #nolaws or treaties that #regulate weather #modification or #climate #engineering and I’m afraid we will in the future see more companies doing this.
