Threadshttps://www.threads.net/@overxited
“The FOSS dating scene”
Second, threads posted by me and a few members of the Threads team will be available on other fediverse platforms like Mastodon starting this week. This test is a small but meaningful step towards making Threads interoperable with other apps using ActivityPub – we’re committed to doing this so that people can find community and engage with the content most relevant to them, no matter what app they use.
Two important Threads updates 🔔🔔

First, Threads is expanding to more countries across Europe, so people there can follow and join the conversations they care about. We’re starting to roll out in more countries now on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store; www.threads.net is live everywhere now.
“It’s as if the sea star is completely missing a trunk, and is best described as just a head crawling along the seafloor,” said lead study author Laurent Formery, a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, in a statement. “It’s not at all what scientists have assumed about these animals.”

The public’s increased awareness of the benefits of cannabis use for health is causing the industry to rise. The market in Australia is expected to grow as marijuana usage becomes progressively legal, mostly for medical purposes.
It has been life-changing for me, especially as the price comes down and using oils &/or flower in a vapouriser (not a vape - it makes no smoke, not lots of smoke). I no longer need constant ibuprofen and my mental health is the best of my life.

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal - Infinite

Nintendo recently filed a patent for a handheld device. It shows schematics for a dual-screen device that can operate like a 3DS—which flips open to reveal two playable screens—when joined with an extra, exterior touchscreen that works even when the device is shut. The handheld can also be split into two separate devices. #Switch2 or next DS or would that be TS?
@overxited watching Sherwood on ABC, ostensibly a crime thriller about some killings, but in reality it probes deeply the hurt and guilt of Thatcher's war on miners and it makes some great commentary around your points.
