If security and privacy are your main concern in a cloud storage app, Proton Drive is the best choice. But that peace of mind comes at a price. My full review:

Nichelle Nichols, forever Lt. Uhura on Star Trek, was born on this date in 1932. In addition to acting, she was also a fierce supporter of NASA and encouraged diversity in NASA's programs. #NichelleNichols #Uhura #StarTrek

I want to take a moment to brag on the #Jewish Mastodon community (aka, #Mazeldon )

I've had the chance to participate in several discussions on very touchy topics over the last couple of weeks (including about issues related to #Israel/#Palestine) and I've been very pleasantly surprised by the quality and civility of conversation, even when those having the discussion have very different perspectives.

It's not perfect, but compared to #Birdsite or FB, this is a breath of fresh air.

I will be putting in a GDPR complaint — I have not given you my home address to receive unsolicited mail…

@zleap @avedik You're right, Wikipedia is not really a source at all and one should always look at the references there instead of just accepting whatever is written but it does still matter what is there. Not everyone is going to check sources and Google for example displays parts of Wikipedia articles when you search for something that has one.

Thankfully Wikipedia should be reasonably to correct too but it becomes easier if you can point to quality sources.

Makes me feel absolutely crazy what a catastrophic mistake leaders and public health people made by framing masking as an unfortunate inconvenience that we just have to suffer through instead of a wonderfully convenient and inexpensive tool that allows us to return to something close to freedom.

19-year-old Environmentalist, Greta Thunberg, just destroyed 36-year-old misogynistic creep, Andrew Tate, in a single sentence.

John Bird obituary - Satirist and actor whose pairing with John Fortune gave him a long career in popular entertainmentThe satire boom of the early 1960s heralded the end of the age of deference in public life generally and in the media specifically. On television, Robin Day began giving politicians a tough time, and in the theatre Beyond the Fringe set a tone of mockery and irreverence that spawned Peter... #theguardian

#RSS seems to be a natural friend of the #fediverse and @danielmiessler's sentiment about it echoes my own:

"I see RSS curation like the practice of cooking one’s own meals. There’s something magical about picking specific ingredients, using custom tools to prepare them, and then consuming the output."

@kirschner My daughter, Ada (7y/o), read the first half of the hardcover edition tonight and she is absolutely loving it! She is excited to write a review of the book when she is done. :)

Looking for a workspace in London for three of us working on etextile and live codey stuff, 18-20 Jan. Any ideas/leads?

Hive mind! Can you help us with a question about books and science?

My partner is an English teacher interested in representation in young adult books. Can anyone suggest to us examples of YA/children's books with women who are scientists? Could be something you read as a child, or something you've read to your own child, or anything else...!

Please share widely! We'd really appreciate as many responses as possible.
