#StarTrek, the original series, engaged women with #ScienceFiction like no prior phenomenon. Dorothy Jones' "The Territory of Rigel" came out in the 1968 trekzine Spockanalia—and we liked it so much, we republished it in our latest volume of Rediscovery!
One of my favorite Carol Emshwiller stories is "But Soft, What Light ...", a romance involving a young lady and her computer. Introduced by Susan Emshwiller, it's a highlight of "Rediscovery: #ScienceFiction by #Women:
Before "The Handmaid's Tale", there was Sonya Dorman's chilling "The Deepest Blue in the World"—and you can find it in the 3rd volume of Rediscovery: Science Fiction by Women...
Before quark theory, the multitude of subatomic particles made scientists tear their hair out. Famed #ScienceFiction poet and author Karen Anderson wrote a little piece, "Theoretical Progress", about it...
The island world of Lorran thrives and suffers under the despotic Stars. Which Star is the most beneficent? Jane Beauclerk weaves a magical/scientifical duet with "We Serve the Star of Freedom" and "Lord Moon"—reprinted at last in...
yes, a bind mount / bind volume is when a volume is explicitly mapped to a location in your local storage rather than managed by docker and likely owned by root.

I'm watching the moon, and I'd be shooting photos, but for the low-hanging fog.
It's still dark so there's no progress I can make on repair work (outstanding since the hurricane of 2022, insurance claim time has run out, the contractors never came.
I've, unwillingly, stepped up to the plate.
What am I going to do, when I finish every series of #shameless? I'm the only one, my wife won't watch it....#Telly
@capla Just where I am now, daily, I listen to music. After normal people are awake, I play my music to hear anywhere on my property, more than an acre in size, and the music can be heard for a mile, or more, across the ocean. But respectful times, and I will take requests. But today, I went through 1950-1990s music, and all the neighbours did too 😎 because my speakers are huge, and PRO and I'm kind enough to let them hear their TV too LOL
I just read that #guitar#amp#wattage should be twice that of the #speakers, and that if too low, the sound will be muffled.
This may explain the #tone I get from my 5 watt tube amp through a Fender GE-412 300 watt cab.
Hmm, I would have thought a post starting with @mention would not be visible on the main timeline but only under posts and replies but apparently not.
I guess it’s “full attention of everyone following you” or “direct message.” Would be nice to have “public but I’m not shouting it to all my followers” as the default for @mentions.
@autiomaa@krzysztofdrozdowski Not to mention (no pun intended) that there is a very real social difference between a public @mention that you don’t want to broadcast to all your followers (should be the default) vs a direct message. The default should be that you can say something to someone publicly without pointing at them and shouting “hey, everyone, listen to what I’m about to tell so-and-so!”
