Liminal thoughts from a liminal space, "The Perineum" between Christmas and New Year

Wow #MicrosoftTeams web version somehow manages to completely bypass my audio settings. It'll just blare its sound out the display speakers, impossible to use my headphones. Great peace of software. /s

"putin: ruSSko se nechystš napadnout Evropu"
...a kur*a.🤬
Nevěřím ničemu, so ruSSšk nevyvrští.

It's done, I successfully defended my #PhD! 🤩
My amazing colleagues @… made this gorgeous hat for me 😍

@… https://bawü.social ist kaputt. Aber das hier könnt ihr wahrscheinlich gar nicht lesen deswegen 😅

Is there a concept of attaching the exact program used to create a file to the file? Like: I created this 3D model with this #SolveSpace or #FreeCAD version, with these patches applied, I want to do something so I can re-open this exact model with that exact version , without glitches, 5 years later.…

If you're interested in how I quantified natural #CO2 emissions from "mofettes" near #Tübingen with a low-cost sensor network, and want to join my PhD defense tomorrow at 10:00, DM me here and i might send you the link (if I don't forget it 😅).
I'll be mostly talking about …

Quantification of natural CO2 emissions from mofettes using a low-cost sensor network at the Starzach site in South-West Germany
We present a top-down method to derive CO2 emissions from mofettes, using only point measurement time series at irregular locations. Notably, no wind vector information is needed, as gas transport is derived from cross-correlations between sensor stations and subsequently integrated using Gauss’ divergence theorem. The method is applied to an existing low-cost sensor network at the Starzach site near the Black Forest in Germany, for which no comprehensive estimate of the total emissions exist…
