USA: we need to to invest in your own defenses! At least 5%!
EU countries: great! we drop USA IT platforms and go for #sovereignty ! Come one everyone, let's move to ... (fill in: NextCloud, Linux, Proton, ...)
USA: wait, no, not like that!
free of fascism!
that is what The Netherlands celebrates today! in 1945 we where finally liberated from fascism again.
The Dutch people hate fascism so much, we still celebrate this every year.
RE: @kim_harding@mastodon.scot
I would have guessed more, tbh
what is the flagship *diamond* #openaccess journal in the fields of #cheminformatics and/or #bioinformatics ?
1. flagship := solid peer review, good editorial standards, innovative, etc (and I care about citations to our work, not JIFs)
2. diamond := zero APC and not prepaid APC
we can disagree on the details, but when it comes to (neo)fascism, yeah, there is zero room for that
less than three weeks left before the Open Science Festival Limburg! #osflimburg https://www.openscience-maastricht.nl/events/open-science-festival-2026/
I am so much looking forward to two days of interdisciplenary research and #openscience discussions with people from Maastricht, Heerlen, but also from Aachen, Venlo, Utrecht, and Delft!
And particularly to see all the exciting open science they do!
Are you coming too? Register today (before we run out of space)!
Cannot join? Then follow @osflimburg@social.edu.nl and/or the #osflimburg hashtag!
I just saw this post: @MagnusIdode@defcon.social
With the question option for "hardest part of [..] science textbook?" being "Pronouncing the IUPAC name".
Now, we have a set of >666 thousand IUPAC names, as CCZero.
Can someone create a speech synthesizer that pronounces these thousands of IUPAC names, to help those new chemistry text book readers?
RE: @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu
isn't the internet really just the world around us?
isn't the internet thus simply just our public space?
isn't it the case that the public space should be safe?
instead of forbidding children to explore the world, make sure the predators get off the street

"The topics of talks and workshops at SWIB revolve around opening data, linking data and creating tools and software for LOD production scenarios."

such a shame, my companion is still not well connected :/ #meshcore
@Huubje ik geloof dat in de afgelopen 20-30 jaar de focus op "vrijheid" is komen te staan, maar dan vooral op individuele vrijheid. en niet meer vrijheid voor ons allemaal, voor elk mens. Dat vrijheid iets is dat we voor moeten werken, elke dag weer, en niet 1x per 4 jaar, en niet alleen voor je eigen bubbel.
Nee, ik denk niet dat mensen dat ook echt beseffen. Vrijheid is niet het recht om te mogen haten. en dat leeft wel in de moderne cultuur
RE: @REA@ec.social-network.europa.eu
this is one thing of popular culture I never like: I for one think that any form of bullying is bad. growing stronger can be done in many ways, and formalized bullying is one of the worst options
need to find time to try this...
if you have two social media accounts, are you schizophrenim ?
this @elixir_europe@mstdn.science paper is looking for reviewers:
"Establishing the ELIXIR Domestic Animals Genome and Phenome Community" https://f1000research.com/articles/15-339/v1
so, your relationship with the USA is more important than international law, human rights, life itself?
Do you mean to say that your name is also in the #epsteinfiles ?
