#Russia #Ukraine #war #women #protests #activism

"Russia monitors its internet and can identify protesters there. But women banging pots and pans to make noise to protest the war are another matter. The women arrange these, noise against the war, sessions by word of mouth or via encrypted email services like WhatsApp and Telegram. The anti-war noise protests are spreading and more Russian towns and city neighborhoods hear the noise on Saturday afternoons."

'The hotel hit upon the idea when it started growing food using fallen leaves, egg shells, and used coffee grounds as compost. While searching for planters to use, the general manager’s eye fell upon the large collection of left-behind, busted-ass suitcases...

It now grows eggplant, tomato, and other veggies in the suitcases. Managers say the cases are light and, so long as the wheels aren’t broken, easy to move around.'

    #Wikipedia #OrphanArticles

    'The researchers found that almost 9 million articles on Wikipedia across all languages – around 15% – were orphans, effectively invisible to readers browsing within Wikipedia... In general, pageviews received by non-orphan articles are twice as many as the pageviews of orphan articles.... the researchers also established a cause-and-effect relationship between the addition of in-links to orphan articles and an increase in their pageviews.'
