> #Ecosia is now taking concrete steps to facilitate climate activism. Going forward, all Ecosia employees can engage in climate activism during weekdays – they don’t need to take time off or call in sick. If they incur legal problems, Ecosia will support them and cover any related fees. If reasonable, nonviolent civil disobedience should lead any Ecosia employee to be incarcerated, their time behind bars will be counted as work time.

For all TootWorkers who want to verify their Mastodon account on their Keybase profile. It's a little finicky with our setup here since Okta does not forward links properly.

But all you have to do is use the #keybase command-line utility and do:

$ keybase prove toot.thoughtworks.com <your-username>

Then copy the given URL and paste it into a window where this instance is already open and visible. That worked for me.

My first article on #ThoughtWorks blog is about the installation of #RedLines, an #art piece by Evan Roth, in our #NYC office. https://www.thoughtworks.com/insights/blog/peer-peer-sharing-and-art-representation-new-york-office #p2p #art

Let me know what you think.

Moved #RedLines to a better spot on the 12th floor.

Congrats @Chocobozzz and the whole @Framasoft team on reaching their funding goal for #peertube. There is still 12 days left to reach some stretch goals, but this is already an incredible achievement. #federation #p2p #video https://www.kisskissbankbank.com/en/projects/peertube-a-free-and-federated-video-platform

When those are the only words you remember, make a whole cover out of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6goSJ3jCEI

@gschalli pointing at things #AR

And so #Youtube won't allow the #Blender Foundation to share its creative commons licensed videos on the platform if they don't monetize it? Really? https://www.blendernation.com/2018/06/19/blender-foundation-youtube-update/ #b3d

Oh, and by the way. If you don't like the default #mastodon #UI, you can always switch to a different one, even while still using the same instance. Here is my #tootworks account from https://pinafore.social/
