Coffee waste helps make lower carbon concrete
RMIT researchers are advancing new ways to cut the carbon footprint of infrastructure by turning everyday organic waste into useful construction materials.

@… Congratulations ! Having professional engaged people can make a big difference. So let's see what all the good things you and the fediverse will bring us in 2026.

Panel asking what nostr doesnt fix?
Relay centralisation could enable censorship, and the UI asking users to manage private keys is tricky.
Could one app become a centralisation choke point? They say no. Agreed. Nostr has very good migration here, if one app goes bad it's easy to move.
Privacy is not solved here, since almost all content is public anyway, by design. But since so users have public keys, it's a step towards enabling privacy. Agreed, and at least clients won't generally spy on every mouse click and scroll pause.
No mention of the thing I think most important, that censorship resistance means poor moderation that means bullying, spam, and harassment. That's tricky to solve I think. The fediverse model seems more suitable for good moderation.

Estoy experimentando con vídeos y federación en mi blog wordpress, aprovechando de subir los vídeos de los últimos conciertos a los que he asistido.
Lo mejor es que logré que los vídeos se reproduzcan directamente en la app del Fediverso. Al menos lo he probado en Mastodon, Pixelfed y la app Moshidon.

Big thanks to the Fediverse Friends who wished me well or even just commiserated at the pain I've been going through.
I am feeling a lot better today, but I don't want to forget that pain, because I need to be mindful of the pain people are in every day. It's a struggle, it's a battle, and I wish we could all live pain-free lives.

Congrats! The @… team hit their initial “maintenance” goal. The next unlock is working on federated groups.
Help fund their campaign!

"Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him. Also, he really is maniacally, unhealthily obsessive about the Nobel Prize."

#NotJustBikes videos... This one was thoroughly depressing. Pleasant that I live in a place where public transport is pretty good, but depressing to see... well, the power of conservatism, I suppose. The whole #fediverse vs #BigTech is just another example of this.
