Ceremonial Sunday night deletion of the crippling WhatsApp account after spending a large part of the weekend explaining myself to all my contacts ✓

#Firefox is being a pain in the **** → navigator.permissions.query() prompts are taking ages to pop up, making web-conferencing very tough.

What browser(s) are you using? Is there anything that isn't WebKit based that is worth trying?

Would anybody know if there is a way to keyword search a single user's toots? I've found myself in the need to look up a link or ref a few times, knowing who tooted about it, but no way of finding the post without manually scrubbing.

Maybe #pleroma has this feature?

Cheers!

A Brussels initiative lead by gsara, towards thinking about remote working and its technical conditions.

Ah..., now beginning a migration of all of my teaching/learning #peertube videos away from peertube.co.uk because the instance is set to only blur mature content...

Can't really justify sending peertube.co.uk links to students with that setting.

Looking at #TubEdu now, would anybody have any other routes for sharing / archiving #education #video #lectures & #screencasts on #peertube or #alternatives ?

Thanks !

An oldie to kickstart the weekend:

Nice article on independent #cartographers in Ireland from the national media outlet.

#EastWestMapping in particular produce maps of areas close to me and their detail is second to none.

Nice to read an alternative outcome to the super heavy investments from the tourism board into the atlantic way.

@p_p welcome !!

cigar divin — its a garda van

@aral a lot of my concerns are taken care of with this page I didn't see yesterday:
https://www.hse.ie/eng/services/news/newsfeatures/covid19-updates/covid-tracker-app/

The code is published here https://github.com/HSEIreland/ and from what I can see, there is a lot of documentation about the functions and databases.

Hi @aral I was wondering if you've had time to look into the Irish #COVID #Tracker app that was released today ?

I had been reading up on the work of the DP-3T about two months ago, but didn't expect Ireland to implement this method. https://github.com/DP-3T/documents

Just asking in case you have any thought about this yet, on first glance it seems like the HSE has done this properly?

And in giving the benefit of the doubt, it would be nice if the sources for the smartphone apps were published for us to be able to have a look.

Seems like an interesting agglom of tools

There was a Too Little Not Enough podcast about research aggregation a while back, on the very subject of the lack of a suitable extendable tool.

Would be curious to survey the methods people on Mastodon use use to sort/organise/categorise/ writing and research.
