Ruth_Mottram - If you are using nextcloud as your main file and photo backup (for personal files, not work!), what are you using for organising your photos?
Photoprism? Memories? Something else?

Außerdem immer wieder mein Lieblingsfakt (auch an Sie Herr Merz): Die Veggie-Bratwurst wurde von Konrad #Adenauer erfunden. Sorry aber deutscher geht es eh nicht #veggieWurst #linguistik

Now having a debate about whether. Kim Larsen's version of Kringsat av Fjender counts as "positive" and indeed "European"...
what do you think? On Qobuz:
#DancingWithTheEuropeans 🇬🇧 that @qobuz brought to my attention today -> surely there are some slightly more uplifting variants? We have a continent wide music contest every year after all!
Husband suggest Joost's Europapa 🇳🇱or perhaps TransEurope Express 🇩🇪 and kids came up with From Paris to Berlin by Infernal  🇩🇰, but pretty sure there are other options.
Will make a playlist for a party with this as theme so #Fedibrain - what would you add?

Actually the luciferase glow is not directly visible either! It's so faint that the video was taken with super-sensitive cameras, closer to astronomy kit than to your smartphone. These are transgenic plants, developed for lab science in my now-#EdinburghUni colleague Jessica Pritchard's PhD, with James Hartwell in Liverpool.
She reported this cool new science in a #preprint last year:

The first session of the second #AntarcticaInSync webinar is about to start - an international effort to coordinate research on and around the southern continent.

Auch bisschen überraschend, dass Wörter wie "Burger" auf einmal gutes urdeutsches Kulturgut sind... und ich meine "Wurst" ist doch kein geschützter Begriff? Hat da irgendjemand mal Linguist*innen konsultiert?? #linguistik #veggieWörter
