So in Germany they tore down some church for #coal of all things, an unprofitable and terribly climate-damaging form of energy.
Unbelievable.

Has Facebook Learned Nothing?
Facebook should be subject to the same rules and responsibilities as any other publisher; it’s not enough to call itself a gateway to other people’s content and wash its hands of the consequences https://www.commondreams.org/views/2020/01/14/has-facebook-learned-nothing

Both as an #activist and as an ordinary #tourist - when travelling to #Paris the day should start with fresh #organic #croissants, #baguette and #coffee: https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-paris-hotels has my list of #hotels offering organic #breakfast and more - for both, the smaller and the bigger budget.

This article contains an important factual error: https://www.infoworld.com/article/3481661/how-open-source-changed-everything-again.html - Microsoft's Visual Studio Code is *not* open source, just like Google Chrome isn't. It's built on the open source VSCodium, like Chrome is built on Chromium. But neither Chrome nor VSCode is open source.
The city of #Bern wants to keep Google and Microsoft out of their schools! 🎆
Schools are experimenting with Collabora (Nexcloud), Kolab, Mahara, Mattermost and Moodle. ❤️
Some, of course, complain for the minor incompatibilities, e.g., with MS Word, but they should blame themselves for not having used Open-Standards in the first place!

There are plenty #organic #supermarkets in #Munich / #Germany. But where are those lively crammed #immigrant and #cornershops which do not only offer daily necessities, but also chit-chat and atmosphere? There are surprisingly few of them actually caring about #environmentfriendly produce. Here's my overview: https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-munich-corner-shops
My favourite fully #organic #pizzeria in #Munich / #Germany has gotten a much more spacious sister #restaurant: https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-munich-pizza
Yet again we see that anonymized location data is not really anonymous. The huge dataset in this study revealed homes, relationships and more, and originated from tracking code within apps. We strongly advise removing any unneeded apps on your phone. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/12/19/opinion/location-tracking-cell-phone.html
