I'm surprised that its only 30 microns. The current govt seemed very adamant about removing plastic shopping bags waste. Although in my experience the most common shopping bags in the Ethiopia are much thinner than other countries (I would guess that they are probably only 30 microns) it would just mean the plastic producers would just shift to creating thicker bags

Neil DeGrasse Tyson has a Phd in astrophysics and he has published a lot of papers. He is a scientist and a science communicator. Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye are not the same.

Thanks for the answer. This might be a dumb question but what does that mean exactly? Is Flipboard approaching the different media outlets and offering to share their content on Flipboard's instance? If so, what do the media outlets get out of using flipboard versus their own instance or a more generic instance like mastadon.social?

How come so many of them are on flipboard? I wonder why they don't run their own instances

This is amazing!!

When is his position up for election? New blood needs to primary this guy

I really like the app too and I like the improvements they are focusing:

Goal #1: Free PeerTube "Premium" for the people €15,000

        Play videos in background
    Cast your videos to your TV
    Get notified of newly released content
    Change the video definition


  

Goal #2: Share videos from your pocket €35,000

        Manage all channels of your account
    Edit video chapters, subtitles, info, etc.
    Get detailed stats of your content
    Upload new videos from your mobile


  

Goal #3: Livestream from your mobile €55,000

        Set up & manage livestream
    Use device cameras & connection
    Stream live from your hand
    No more need for a secondary mobile app dedicated to live streams


  

Plus on the fireside fedi interview, a rep from peertube said that they would make these improvements whether or not they hit the fundraising goals but the new funds would help

This sucks but I think this will lead to a Youtube exodus and other platforms like Peertube will creator and user base will grow

Donated!

From the article:

"Today's court's decision shows that the consent system used by Google, Amazon, X, Microsoft, deceives hundreds of millions of Europeans. The tech industry has sought to hide its vast data breach behind sham consent popups. Tech companies turned the GDPR into a daily nuisance rather than a shield for people." [Dr Johnny Ryan, Director of Enforce at the Irish Council for Civil Liberties]

Today’s judgement confirms the Belgian Data Protection Authority’s 2022 decision. It applies immediately across Europe.

This article says that both Ethiopia and Yemen claim to have discovered coffee. The Ethiopian claim is that it was discovered and brewed in Ethiopia and the Yemeni claim is that Ethiopians discovered but Yemenis brewed it. I like the Ethiopian story better but it either have no conclusive evidence

What's your source. Ethiopians will tell you up and down that they discovered and brewed coffee first

I just tried Newpipe to double check, it works fine for me

Just subscribed

I'm not technical enough to know what the details mean but Im excited of the idea of a simple algorithm for peertube

I would extent this to billboards in general. Its annoying and nonsensical to advertise private products in public spaces

Thanks! I had previously downloaded it from the play store and had no idea that's why the search sucked. Uninstalled and re-downloaded from F-droid, works great now!

Large cuts are happening in all country offices of IOM.

Let's go Lemmyyyyy!!!!
