Data centres; what if we could facilitate genocide, enable surveillance capitalism, and wreak untold environmental havoc globally *all at the same time*?!?

Given the NIHSE has failed to give any advice on the effect of large fires on contaminated land, here is a UK Gov 2007 report on asbestos in fire plumes. Fibers present do not uplift large distances but may disperse locally. The wind tonight in Belfast will be from the south. tinyurl.com/3tx3wded

Trump Cuts Are Killing a Tiny Office That Keeps Measurements of the World Accurate A tiny but crucial agency that maintains physical coordinates like latitude and longitude in the US is struggling as the Trump administration forces out federal employees.

Trump administration cuts are threatening the National Geodetic Survey, a tiny but crucial office within the NOAA that maintains the USโ€™s framework of spatial information: latitudes, longitudes, elevation measurements, and more.

Hi Fred, our printer can swap colours during a print so we created edge to edge scale tiles covering the isles (EU-DEM) and printed each tile (c20cmx20cm) to build the finished map @1/6k. Tiles are generated in QGIS, exported to printer format and 'sea level' printed blue first then land on top. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Worried about losing access to US federal data that may go off-line, or already is? Youโ€™re not aloneโ€”but duplication isnโ€™t the answer.

Many ongoing efforts have already archived key datasets and many more are ongoing. Check out these existing resources and, if you can, support their work. ๐Ÿงต

Day 1 of photoshopping John Oliver onto/into fossils in the hopes that he saves my old museum, the Paleontological Research Institution

I think he makes a great snail!

Fossil is the Murex shilhoensis type, a junior synonym of Favartia shilohensis, comedian is H. sapiens
