Recently joined @NABU for a walk through Berlin's Wuhletal, which is currently being renaturalized. Beavers and otters - once gone - are back and thriving. Incredible animals and brilliant builders! It's also fascinating to see how the moor frogs and moorhens immediately feel better here as soon as the beavers dam up the water with their structures. A rising water level would also be relevant to climate protection as a sink for peat.

Lasst euren Worten Taten folgen! Stellt euch geschlossen hinter das #AfDVerbotJetzt!

Das fordern wir am Samstag, dem 28.06. beim #SPDParteitag

Von 7:30-11:00 Uhr versammeln wir uns am CityCube #Berlin, informieren über das Verbot und sprechen mit Abgeordneten. Kommt vorbei und seid laut mit uns 📣

A pair of teens next to me started talking mockingly about how ridiculous masking is in 2025 and in the heat.

I ignored them, as one does on #Berlin public transport.

As they kept chatting, they went there:

"How long has it been since COVID?" "I don't know, my entire class just recently had it." "Yeah, and I can still feel it in my lungs."

I don't think the ridicule worked out as they had planned to.

hey #berlin are you a cool hacker person who could help us pick a simple mailbox lock?

our collective cannot get to our own mail right now because someone kindly replaced our lock but also didn't give us the key 🤣

we even have a new replacement lock to go in there! i think in the right hands this would take all of 30 seconds to do. let me know

today is another rendition of @tbernard 's wonderful #BoilingTheOcean hackathon in #Berlin ! (and i'm finally back in town at the same time it's happening)

there will be a lot of local-first peer to peer related work, systemd/mkosi topics, and hopefully some #postmarketOS stuff too

i'll be hacking on pmbootstrap unshare support (removing the need for root access to use pmb), and maybe looking into pmb/mkosi integration (building on the mkosi support for pmOS that @craftyguy has been working on the last few days)

totally forgot to post about this before but if you're in town and wanna stop by do come along, details are here
