@kWazt Yeah but the issue is finding one site I can use every game that also doesn't have a massive delay from live so I can watch in sync with my friends
"To generate climate dividends, Barnes would implement a hard, declining carbon cap. (A tax ..., he says, is not enough ...) Permits would be auctioned ... to upstream sources, where carbon enters the economy. As the number of permits declined, permits would [increase in] value... and dividends would increase, driving a virtuous ... cycle that brings public support behind carbon reduction"
The US added 187,000 #jobs in July as the unemployment rate drops to to 3.5%. - Nonfarm payrolls increased 187,000 last month following a similar increase in June - Wage growth rose at a firm pace #Bidenomics
"Global burned area is decreasing, so #ClimateChange does not exacerbate #wildfires" - did you ever hear this argument, possibly continuing to label reports on recent catastrophic wildfires as "alarmist"? 🔥

It might be useful for new researchers to know how a journal editor screens submissions (obviously this is my approach and so it might differ for others).
I tend to start with a cold read of the abstract. By this I mean I try to do little more than glance at the title, as titles sometimes oversell or, at least, don't help my understanding of what the paper is about.
This is also why I read the cover letter second, so I have an outline of the paper before I'm subjected to the "pitch".
I was familiar with the cover letter pitch but good to know the importance of further background and what to do with the results. Thank you for sharing.
Although there are relatively few accounts on Mastodon that have follower numbers in the hundreds of thousands, it seems likely that if a well-curated BBC World News account was created, it would become one of them. And while that audience would be still be smaller than BBC's audience on other social media platforms, there are many folks here that aren't on the other sites.
@BBC_News_Labs@winstonsmith Please, please do! Right now, anyone who wants to get BBC news in their Mastodon feed has to follow bots, not an official account, and would happily follow official accounts. Not only that, when official accounts join, bot accounts try to transfer their followers over and post letting people know about official accounts (that’s what happened when Ars Technica made an official Mastodon account).
At least one news account would give you a lot more real interaction.
