on the atmosphere, there is an incentive to implement better functionalities because any user can change service at zero cost; on the fediverse i feel like it's the opposite: there is no real incentive in embracing new software because it's more a risk than anything else and it's not like you can bring your own instance data on another software without costs. #fediverse #atmosphere #activitypub #atprotocol

Bridgy Fed is one of the underappreciated but load-bearing parts of the open social web: you don't need to choose any more whether to create an account in the #ActivityPub-based #Fediverse (like #Mastodon) or the #ATProtocol-based #ATmosphere (like #Bluesky).

Most #volcanoes warm the #atmosphere with SO2 But the 2022 Hunga #Tonga eruption was unique Deep enough for sea water to penetrate, but shallow enough for the explosion to push water into the *mesosphere* 🤯 The water penetration removed most of the SO2, and the water is also still up there in the #stratosphere, *cooling* us Meaning: #GlobalWarming should be even worse than it already is, and could rebound to such as the high water veil dissipates https://indiandefencereview.com/hunga-volcano-space-plume-stratosphere-froze/ #ClimateCrisis

Catching up with some of the news coming out of the Atmosphere conference. "With Attie, anyone will be able to build their own custom feed just by typing in commands in natural language, the same as if they’re chatting with any other AI chatbot." I'm guessing NFT profile pictures are next? https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/28/bluesky-leans-into-ai-with-attie-an-app-for-building-custom-feeds/ #news #technology #TechNews #atmosphere #ATProto #bluesky #AI #LLMs

Over the past few years, the number of #satellite launches has skyrocketed. There are now nearly 15 000 active #satellites in orbit around the Earth, most of them part of mega-constellations in which each satellite has a service life of only a few years. New satellites must be quickly launched as replacements. To avoid leaving old, dead satellites in Earth’s already-crowded low orbits, most satellite operators deliberately de-orbit them into Earth’s upper atmosphere. That approach is now being taken to a vastly larger scale and there are implications for Earth’s #climate and #atmosphere. Rocket launches already contribute to climate change and #ozone depletion. Scaling them up to deploy a million aircraft-sized satellites would push upper-atmosphere heating and ozone loss far beyond previous estimates, with the steady burn-up of dead satellites compounding the impacts. This is just a fraction of what is to come if planned mega-constellations go ahead. Operators worldwide have already asked for a combined total of over one million satellites. The very smallest particles, finer than a human hair, can stay suspended in the atmosphere for years, contributing to ozone depletion and climate change. A million satellites could mean that a teragram of alumina accumulates in the upper atmosphere – enough, alongside launch emissions, to significantly alter atmospheric chemistry and heating in dramatic ways we do not yet understand. There is no public mandate for a single company in one country to make changes on that scale to the planet’s atmosphere. #space #astronomy https://theconversation.com/a-new-space-race-could-turn-our-atmosphere-into-a-crematorium-for-satellites-276366
