Meer groen in de leefomgeving zorgt voor minder zieken, blijkt uit onderzoek. Per extra hectare groen in de buurt neemt het aantal langdurig zorgbehoevende patiënten fors af. Naast gezondere en vitalere mensen, kan dit jaarlijks in heel Nederland voor een financiële besparing van 400 miljoen euro zorgen.

Dat zouden ze in meer landen moeten doen: #zonnepanelen verplicht boven alle grote parkeerterreinen in Frankrijk.

De makkelijkste manier om gas te besparen: zet 'm op 60. De meeste cv-ketels staan op de fabrieksinstelling van 80ºC, maar werken efficiënter op 60ºC. Deze snelle besparing scheelt veel gas en dus ook CO₂. En dit zonder verlies van comfort en geen risico op een koude douche. #energierekening #gasprijs

Hello! Very much looking forward to starting a new chapter here. Browsing through an old box in the garage just now, I found these, and for some reason I thought it would make an appropriate first post. My 1990's computing history.

Who is Taylor Lorenz and why should we care?

She's a technology columnist for the Washington Post, suspended this evening from Twitter apparently for asking Musk to comment on a story involving Musk. Musk is demonstrating that he can extort censorship from the media with the ban hammer. Taylor was targeted to be an example. Other journalists are put on notice it's not them...this time, and reminded to toe the line. This is about press freedom. That's why we all should care.

#orion has left lunar orbit! It fired its main engine today to exit distant retrograde orbit and set itself on a course for Earth.

#twitter has permanently suspended Aaron Rupar.

Public Service Warning

Mastodon has a very big surge of new users right now. There's no way to tell if it will be sustained, but at this early point it looks similar to Nov 18 when when Musk pulled the employee purge.

It is very challenging for system administration to accommodate so many new users. If your server starts to struggle, it is not broken and will get sorted out.

We're all in this together. It's our social network. Be patient. What we are building is amazing.

#twittermigration

This is significant ...

The German office for data protection and freedom of information hosts the official #Mastodon server for government departments

They are now calling for all ministries on the server to put their focus on Mastodon

They are also asking ministries which are not yet on Mastodon to join as soon as possible

#twitter is directly attacking #mastodon links now. This is for the link to my mastodon profile that I have on Twitter. Also, this:

I wonder if a simple trick using a redirecting link on Twitter will work, to achieve the same thing.

Elon Musk continues to use his platform on Twitter to spread dangerous rightwing disinformation, most recently taking a swipe both at the trans community and Dr. Fauci.

In response, Dr. Fauci clapped back with a brutally accurate description of Musk's Twitter.

Definitely worth a watch.

Mr. Sebastian Pospichil of TRKKN fame authored a guest post on my blog (www.simoahava.com).

This article shows you how to setup "Enhanced Link Attribution" for GA4. With just a single #GoogleTagManager tag and some variables, you can track each and every navigation event with metadata on which link / link-like element was clicked. You can use this to build heatmaps of the most used navigational elements on the site, for example.

# United Federation of Instances Proposal

https://gitlab.com/ufoi/constitution

I tagged below everyone who asked me to tag them. I have now started a gitlab group and project where we can discuss the #UFoI proposal transparently and with a good recorded history.

Please start discussions by creating issues, and any edits you have to the proposal please edit on gitlab and submit as a merge request, which can then be discussed.

I will write the CI code to make sure the document gets compiled.

I will try to leave the mass-message like here just to the major developments as it feels a bit spammy. I will only send out one more notification once the by laws draft is up. Of course if anyone does not want to get notified let me know and ill leave you off from future discussions.

I’m always on about purchasing power, adjustment for inflation, and definitions of poor/middle class/rich. Therefore I found this comparison interesting (shared on LinkedIn by someone I don’t know):
