I made a thing called Wellness Ping because someone I care about went silent and it took too long for anyone to notice.

You get regular check-ins via email. If you don't respond, your emergency contacts get notified.

Built it for anyone who might go missing and needs someone to notice: activists, journalists, researchers, solo folks.

I paid for premium hosting (high-reliability VPS in Sweden) and a quality email provider because uptime actually matters for something like this. Also paying extra for minimal data retention (7 days email activity, working toward zero content storage).

Free forever (as long as I'm alive) and open source.

Wellness Ping

To put a cherry on top btw, the survey was about "Political view and gathering information about politics."
So... yea. No. Just... no. Not at all. Holy boi.
I mean, in a way hooray for stating that lovely detail. But who would possibly willing to participate, given everything going down over there lately? Seriously?
So, I'm on #prolific, a site where I participate in various surveys for a few bucks. Bit of science in exchange for money, good stuff.
Last night, a survey from the "State university of Florida" popped up - and I screened out right in the consent form and left some feedback about that ONE paragraph.
That was the first time I saw THAT paragraph in a consent form - and there's really NO way I would participate in such a survey, at all, ever.

Two kinds of people exist in this world.

Either you got no clue what this is, or you are old enough and can hear my shirt.

„Musik: Warum gibt es sie überhaupt?“ via @redmaker #tagessschau

Musik ist die Sprache die ich spreche um mit Leuten zu reden die eigentlich wie ich stumm sind

Musik: Warum gibt es sie überhaupt?

Die Musik hat Evolutionspsychologen ratlos gemacht: Unser Gehirn ist offenbar darauf angelegt, Musik zu genießen oder gar hervorzubringen. Diese Fähigkeit scheint genetisch angelegt zu sein. Doch wozu brauchen wir sie?
