eww, that is cos cats seem to like lying on keyboards or sleeping on keyboards and other computer stuff.
Could have a look at peer tube, it is decentralised so depending on interest there may be a specific instance with the content you are looking for
We have or used to have lots of birds in the garden, don't get so many now for some reason, we do get cats. Sadly the electronic cat scarer things seem to also scare of birds so they are not a solution.
I think foxes are more aligned to the canine family so perhaps a similar device designed to deter dogs would work.
Talking of cutting stars from teams, Given how Manchester United are doing at present, the manager should drop ALL of its supposed stars and put the B team as the main team., can't be any worse.

I remembner something years ago "Friends don't let friends use windows" while this was tongue in cheek, there are parallels to this current situation. The US & other countries can be friends with Isreal, no issue with that, but as friends we have are sponsibility and should be helping find better solutions and sometimes as a friend you have to simply say NO!! and STOP!
So to perhasp rephrase that
"Friends don't let Friends bomb innocent men, women and children"
I've left Substack. Here's why, and how it's going to work: https://werd.io/2023/leaving-the-nazi-bar
Yes, most definitely would be welcome here. I would be happy to help share / boost etc.
As I said in another reply, what you have here is a platform where we can have proper discussions that are civilised,
@ics Hi, HIV community! I work for a non-profit organization in Washington, DC (http://healthhiv.org) and we are exploring the idea of creating a Mastodon instance specifically focusing on HIV and building community away from stigmatizing platforms and irrationality. Does this sound interesting to anyone? What kind of social community would you find engaging and helpful?
We are seeing this in the UK witrh other vaccines hence the rise in things like Measles, we really do need to do a better job of sharing good science information and keep telling the anti vax idiots to either show us the science to back their claims or shut up.
Sadly I think the battle on mainstream social media is lost, there are enough science, and importantly rational intelligent people on the Fediverse to really share information based on actual science, backed by research, backed by evidence and backed by actual papers on the topics. It makes good reading but also helps others share this information too.

Keyboard Cleaning Gel
I bought some keyboard cleaning gel from Poundland earlier, Just wondered if anyone has any experience with this, does it work any takeaways from using that can be shared please.
Thanks
Good question, but it goes without saying good nutrition is key to good learning, especially when for what ever reason the kids can get a proper meal at home.
If the schools faculty regularly eat the same lunch food as the kids the food is probably up to the level it ought to be. If the faculty and staff won’t touch it even if it is free/discounted— it’s unacceptable.
In theory food for young people would be *higher* quality than adult food— but we do not fund or run most public school cafeterias this way. I want to know why not.

Thankfully, the Fediverse where both sides of the debate are able to be heard along with rational, civilised discussion.
Fedi wins again, it seems .

12 out of 165, This is just crazy, depending on when they were asked and how long they have had to respond and the personnel available to run the assessments.
They are both liars and war criminals
