@liztai , having read Culture Chronicles #5 and watched the videos, I must say this Brazilian here has a hard time understanding what he was saying! 😅

@kiff levantar o pé pars quê?!

@kiff https://stuff.lema.org/mastobr/

@kiff meu equilíbrio é OK (3,5 mil km nos últimos três anos, alguma coisa tenho que aprender) mas duvido que quem viu tenha reconhecido a intenção 😅

@kiff dia desses tentei até ziguezaguear com a bicicleta no ritmo de uma musica

@liztai never tried organizing anything. Mostly I have one or two dozen notes and I read or write at them. Some of them are just collections of scholarly references from many years ago, I'll just add them to Zotero (not relaxing). Haven't found yet how to pin some notes in the top of the list yet, so I put some notes in ~3 folders to make it easier for me to find often-read but seldom-edited notes.

@fribbledom besides everything people have commented already, some tasks will be performed more reliably by your automation than by you

@MicroSFF Does YouTube provide automatic translation for this video? (IDK because the audio is in my native language.)

Here Ariano Suassuna denounces Hollywood as a propaganda machine, drawing a parallel between Indiana Jones and a British film vilifying Gandhi.

@delawen @liztai Medical doctor here. IDK how many vaccines were developed in Chinea, but we did receive Sinovac in Brazil, and it is by far the one with fewer adverse effects. (Over the years I took 2 doses of Sinovac, 2 different Moderna and 2 different Pfizer, or something like that.) It was developed using a well known mechanism which underlies a lot of classical vaccines for other diseases, including some you probably took. Its problem is being less effective then the RNA ones.

@delawen @liztai By the way, Hilda Bastien has been keeping up with clinical and preclinical evidence on covid vaccines since the beginning, so her blog is a good read on the subject:

@f4grx @osnews that typo also gave me pause

@jwildeboer reminds me of when some version of Windows had three backdoors: one accidental, another created by Microsoft for the CIA, and another one created by an infiltrated CIA agent

@notjustbikes I unfollow people liberally

@MicroSFF congrats! I never looked into my Facebook and Xitter exports, and never bothered with downloading my Mastodon history

@ryanhoulihan wow, is that a thing? I think the last time I saw this was in Dragonslayer (1981) and I don't even remember anymore if the sacrificed girls need to be virgin in that movie

@publicdomainrev Brazil too, but ours is much more introspective

@Gargron I'd like to think the copyright owners are keeping archival copies, but really having lots of copies is much safer

@pfefferle

Sorry for the probable FAQ but I couldn't find this info elsewhere. Can you say whether the ActivityPub plug-in will be

1. … available for all WordPress.com blogs?

2. … released this year? (I mean in a log scale, is it weeks, months or no idea if possible?)
